An Analysis on Takina and Chisato and their relationship

Takina

She is a girl who don't grow in a place where she learned how to express (or understand) her feelings, the only thing that matters is the mission and her feelings and thoughts don't have place in the plans. However, contrasting with this way of being raised, she have a mentality of 'going to do the most practical and efficient thing possible at the moment', therefore she tends to disobey the orders from her superiors, wich leads to her being removed from the organization. She knows no other way to live than working hard to move up the ranks in the organization, not realizing that often what the organization wants doesn't align with what she wants.

Takina's main character arc is about freedom and how she discovers that the way for her to live a fuller life is not by being more recognized or being the team leader, but simply following what she thinks is right and doing the things that make her happy with the people that make her happy.

Chisato

Oh boy, where do I start? Well, Chisato's character arc is also centered on freedom, the difference between her and Takina is that Chisato already understands that what she wants is not the same as what the organization wants. Her struggle is not to find freedom, but to get there. She is not left alone as she is the most talented Lycoris and one of Alan's children. So she does what she can to preserve that little freedom she has for the time she has left (which she knows is short, so she has to make the most of it).

She was raised by the same organization as Takina and the other girls, so why doesn't she act like Fuki or even Takina in the first few eps?

It's because she know how life may be ephemeral, it was literally thrown in her face from a young age. 'You'll only get to the beginning of your adult life, your heart won't take it after that', that kind of perspective of life changes a person, especially in this case that supposedly the reason she was saved was to fulfill missions that might involve the thing she hates the most, taking lives.

So how do they interfere with each other's arc?

Takina has the freedom Chisato wishes she could have and Chisato has the skills and recognition Takina craves. They balance each other out, when Takina was very focused on the quests and in regaining her place as Lycoris Chisato showed her how to have fun and how to be comfortable with herself and her own needs. For Chisato, she never lets anyone get too close, she's communicative and outgoing, but keeps everyone at arm's length (probably because she doesn't want to cause pain when she's gone). Takina changes that, she enters Chisato's life and suddenly she has this girl who is now her partner, but she has no idea how to act like a normal teenager or value the time she has, so since Chisato helps people, obviously she's going to help this girl see the beauty in life, what can go wrong?

Well, the girl gets better and starts acting like someone her own age and following her own desires, however now Chisato has become attached to said girl.

Chisato couldn't keep distance from Takina and now she has to deal with telling her that she is close to death. Takina doesn't take it well, as we can see in ep.

Here's the thing, towards the end of the anime they both do something that goes against everything the character was in the beginning. Chisato was willing to hurt and even kill one of the people she most admired by Takina. She never wanted to kill even her enemies, let alone the man who helped save her life? Here we have Chisato's most emotional moment, she is not willing to kill for her own life, but is willing to kill for Takina. Minutes later we have the biggest show of emotion from Takina, she wants to kill the man who is taking what can save Chisato. Chisato doesn't want her to kill him, saying she couldn't live if his life were taken for that. Takina from the beginning of the anime would never do that, would never consider Chisato's will if the most logical decision was to kill, would never let go that blood-curdling scream when she failed. What happened?

Chisato happened.

They changed, improved, they balance, they complete each other.
