adding onto my last rant from a while ago a little bit, it is fascinating how many people in this fandom completely miss the point of tsumugis character and misconstrue what hes actually about which, ironically, is just what eichi did. and its done in such a similar fashion too, such as making assumptions about his motives, his family relationship, and missing the point in why he chooses to look the way he does. and, time and time again, eichi has been proven to be WRONG about tsumugi. he misunderstood him deeply, and now its eichi whos stuck mourning the past while tsumugi has long since moved on, not the other way around, as tsumugi is on the path of getting his happy ending. and i dont get why people keep trying to take this positivity from him

#sorry for harping on this stuff alot it just genuinely sucks seeing a character you love be so widely misunderstood #especially when if you really think about it #tsumugi is about as blunt and honest as they come #you dont always need to read deeper into a character. you dont always need to psychoanalyze every part of them #you dont need to reason everything #sometimes people just Are Some Kind Of Way #and eichi failed to understand that and made the wrong assumption about tsumugi #and i feel like this fandom keeps doing the same thing #because he can do and say unconventional things #and when he makes jokes he sounds super alarming or like an utter freak #its frustrating when people continuously doubt tsumugis words when he speaks so earnestly about his life #hes honest to a fault. he has no reason to lie #you can argue that “ohhh tsumugi just doesnt realize how fucked up he is!” and like Yea sure theres an element of that #but ive always read the point of his character to be him overcoming these hardships #because he cares so fucking deeply about every single person around him #and he never assumes malice. because he is such a genuinely kind hearted guy #and what makes tsumugi so interesting is that he can kind of SUCK at getting that across #because no matter what people never understand his actions or intents because of how weirdly he acts #and neither does this fandom!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!#natsume and tsumugi are built on being opposites. if natsume is a known liar surely we can put two and two together?#theres alot more that can be said on this topic and ive been meaning to for a while but honestly i just dont have the energy or brainpower #also i dont want this to read like im yucking anyones yum. its just frustrating as someone who is very mentally ill about these characters #he has clearly endured traumas too like im not ignoring that. its super obvious. but his character is about love and growth #you can go through literal HELL and be on the brink of SUICIDE and still end up a happy loving and forgiving person #and i think thats what his character is about #nat rambles #nats enst posting
