SaiTeru: Why it Works for Me

So I’ve come to the conclusion that to finally exorcise all of my SaiTeru thoughts, I need to ramble about just what makes them so good together (in my eyes).

This entire post is just my very own personal perspective, of course; so you can pretty much mentally attach an IMHO to everything.

I’ll be using panels from the manga to illustrate my thoughts as well as I can. So if you’re interested in these two, by all means, get ready for an image-heavy post! And link-heavy, too, because I’ll be trying to not repeat too much of the stuff I’ve already mentioned in my SaiTeru posts lol

First, I’ve got to talk about Kokomi

Remember that time Saiki said that he is so powerful that his powers literally stole the joy of the mundane, everyday things; like romance?

This sweet summer child is in the same situation. Kokomi wants a "decent guy" that "suits" her, but all of her current suitors bore her. Of course they do! Every guy she comes across bends over backwards for her. No guy around her challenges her in any way.

To make matters worse, Kokomi only feels at ease with someone when she has established herself as their superior through the holy art of offu; aka, when she knows that all the give-and-take will be in her favor.

Needless to say, this is a recipe for disaster. If Kokomi were to settle for some guy that offues every time she so much as opens her mouth, she will have all the work done for her. She won’t ever need to go the extra mile for him because the guy will worship her. Kokomi will be able to read him like an open book, so she will never give the guy her all.

I feel, this right there is part of the reason why her feelings for Saiki develop the way they do. If it were just a matter of establishing her superiority, Kokomi would’ve developed a fixation with Kusuke; but aside from avenging her pride, she couldn’t care less about him.

No, the reason is that Saiki is that decent guy she had been looking for. Plus, by virtue of being unlike every other guy around her, Saiki makes her feel things.

He makes her guess, makes her nervous, makes her lose her cool.

He even makes her second-guess herself and forget she's a perfect, beautiful girl. For someone like Kokomi, this is huge!

These are all things that any normal girl in love would feel, but these emotions were out of Kokomi's reach until Saiki entered her life.

Not to mention, as the manga itself points out, Kokomi would need to be with a guy "who can stand against the entire world". Saiki is the only one who fits the bill, and the manga pretty much states it outright.

I'd even go as far as to say that, in the context of the manga, Saiki is in every single way Kokomi's one chance at experiencing love the way a normal person would.

Plus. Plus. Saiki can read her mind yet can’t see her looks. Which means that Saiki is the one person in the entire manga that truly sees Kokomi — all of her — and likes her for who she is, as she is.

And thanks to the alternate reality where Saiki comes clear about his powers (and SaiTeru are already dating), we know this will mean the world to Kokomi.

Okay, I think that by now it’s kind of obvious why I feel that God basically put Saiki in Kokomi's way so that his favorite child would find happiness (the day Kokomi notices Saiki for the first time is even her birthday, hello??)

Now, let me talk about the tsundere known as Saiki

Or rather, let me link the post where I talked about Saiki's side of the equation, because I want to try and keep this one short and sweet 😂 Saiki & Romance - Or rather, Saiki & why he could come to reciprocate Teruhashi's feelings.

Just like Saiki represents Kokomi’s best chance at a normal romance, I’d argue Kokomi may very well also represents Saiki’s.

Because with Kokomi, Saiki doesn’t feel superior. At the contrary, he knows that Kokomi will get her way more often than not. That even without him, she is practically invincible - and that together, they really are invincible.

Because with Kokomi, Saiki is always on his toes. Reading her mind is useless because he is still always, always guessing when it comes to her.

Because with Kokomi, his X-Ray Vision and Mind-Reading don't rob him of the chance of falling in love; at the contrary, they serve to bring him closer to her.

Heck, remember when Saiki confidently said that Chiyo wouldn’t be able to raise any love flags with him as his opponent? Well, when it comes to Kokomi, it’s Saiki who raises those flags; not Kokomi! Saiki might be the most powerful being on Earth, but he doesn’t stand a change against one Kokomi Teruhashi. And this is HUGE because Saiki likes troublesome things, and Kokomi is the most troublesome out of them all.

By the end of the manga, being alone with her even makes Saiki nervous. Not worried, not scared; actually, honest to God, nervous.

And the thing is that one could say, yeah okay but Saiki doesn’t like Teruhashi’s personality. And that would have been true at the start of the series, but by the end? Saiki definitely has come to like Kokomi exactly as she is, and his complaints are just him being a big ol’ tsundere.

Which FINALLY takes me to my favorite thing about them.

The Slow-Burn

Saying that I love their development would be a huge understatement. It’s just so good!

I love the irony!! Saiki's X-Ray vision and his Telepathy are the reasons Saiki can’t fall in love, yet they are also what set his development with Kokomi in motion. After all, since Saiki can’t see her looks, he is immune to her charms. But since he can read her thoughts, he can actually see her for who she truly is.

And practically every time he tries to make her like him less, it backfires and he ends up liking her more. It’s hilarious! lol

Saiki might not be particularly impressed with Kokomi at first, but this changes once Saiki becomes aware of how much sheer effort Kokomi pours into her everyday life. Saiki recognizes and respects Kokomi’s efforts more than anyone, because he is the same way!! Just like Kokomi, Saiki is fixated on giving a set image of himself and spends a lot of effort on achieving this.

This is why Saiki comes to respect Kokomi the way he does. By the end of the manga, he literally sings her praises left and right, says they're invincible together, etc. He couldn't think higher of her if he tried! lol

The biggest cornerstone in the Saiki-Kokomi development however is Saiki finally realizing that no, Kokomi isn't into him solely because he won't offu. Realizing Kokomi genuinely loves him quite literally "moves" Saiki's heart; and from that point onward, he makes no effort to get Kokomi to give up on him. Quite the opposite. But I digress because I've already gone on and on about all this in my SaiTeru posts 😂

Now, Kokomi's side is a lot more straight-forward, and the manga quite literally spells it out.

But one thing I adore that I haven't yet seen being brought up, is just how well Kokomi comes to know Saiki. Without realizing it, she ends up having a spot-on impression of him. Like, remember when Kokomi describes Saiki to his grandpa?

The joke here is that Kokomi thinks she’s making stuff up, but she isn’t. She’s actually, subconsciously, accurately describing Saiki, even stuff she’s not supposed to know; Saiki is gloomy, doesn’t talk a lot, doesn’t show what he’s thinking - but he’s also very responsible, prefers to support everyone from the sidelines instead of leading, is calm and gentle, and the type that naturally attracts people to him.

Kokomi instinctively gets all this because she’s so perceptive that she’s like a psychic. Her one mistake is thinking that Saiki is normal, which is why she was so shocked he wouldn’t react to her like your average guy; but then again, that’s exactly how Saiki wants her to see him lol

So TL;DR I love that these two kids that started the manga completely underestimating one another pretty much think the WORLD of each other by the time the series ends.

Lastly!!

I am 100% convinced they’d be great together

I’m going to be lazy again and just quote the TL;DR of Saiki and Kokomi are quite literally birds of a feather, because I still feel the same way:

It’s really funny just how much Saiki and Teruhashi have in common, because they seem so different at first glance.

But that’s what makes them complementary: as two people who know the superiority of standing on-top of their respective pyramids, and who have spent their entire lives with two older brothers who harbor such obsessions with them, they’ll be able to understand where the other comes from in their darkest moments.

At the same time though, they will also be able to balance the other when it comes to their most extreme traits. After all, they’re complete opposites in their rapport with others, in the way they express themselves and in the way they see their own powers.

Saiki and Kokomi are each other’s equal in more ways than one. But, all of their similarities aside, I’ve gone on and on and I haven’t talked about the elephant in the room, right?

That being, even if Saiki were to reciprocate Kokomi’s feelings, it would never work out because Saiki hates drawing attention to himself and Kokomi is so dedicated to being the most perfect beautiful girl that she would never settle for less. Right?

That is indeed a very valid concern. But, honestly?

I think they’ve already shown that they have what it takes to make it work.

In Chapter 242, which to me pretty much summarizes everything about SaiTeru’s development, Saiki shows that he has come so far that he is willing to attract attention to himself if it’s for Kokomi. He not only catches her in his arms in front of the entire school, he also glares at them for how far they’ve pushed Kokomi, and then he quite literally carries her bridal-style to the infirmary.

He could’ve simply gotten one of the guys there to do it, but no; Saiki did it himself. Which shows that when push comes to shove, Kokomi does come first.

And the same goes for Kokomi. In Chapter 242, Kokomi’s drive to be absolutely perfect in everyone’s eyes takes such a toll on herself that she literally collapses. Her drive is that strong. Yet, she throws every care for everyone’s perception of her away without a second thought simply to go thank Saiki for his help.

Which means that in Kokomi’s personal ranking, Saiki comes first. She cares more about him than she does about being perfect.

Let that sink in.

So, I definitely do think that despite their different “goals”, Saiki and Kokomi would be able to make it work.

Plus, well, they literally have God on their side. I’m willing to bet that, if one day Kokomi wants to go on a date with Saiki and he’s not in the mood for a crowd? She can make puppy-eyes at God and God will literally make it so no one even looks at them twice. And if Saiki one day needs to use his powers in public? Kokomi can so much as sneeze and all the attention will be on her; Saiki can set his hair on fire and no one will even notice. Hell, I’m pretty sure they might even think that whatever they see Saiki do is just a by-product of Kokomi vision.

And if it fails? They have their own personal army, the Kokomins, who have basically already accepted Saiki as Kokomi’s one true love.

In that way, I think Kokomi might very well be the perfect way for Saiki to hide his powers in plain sight. Similarly, Saiki can be Kokomi’s perfect weapon against her pervert of a brother - and so can Kokomi for Saiki when it comes to Kusuke, if the shrine chapter was anything to go by.

After all, just like Saiki says, when he and Kokomi are together, they are invincible.

So all in all... yeah. I’m hoping I managed to explain why I’m basically up there with Saiki’s God when it comes to these two, they are just meant to be together in my eyes lol

If you read this far, thank you for reading!! Maybe now I’ll be finally able to shut up about SaiTeru 😂

Hello :) Could you possibly do a fic about Kuboyasu and the reader trying to keep their relationship a secret from all their friends cause it’s both their first relationship but slowly everyone starts to find out on their own but hide it to themselves since they think they’re the only ones who know (and saiki is ready to just out their relationship since it’s just getting ridiculous at this point) im sorry if this is a lot

Howdy! It’s fine 😊 I really liked this idea too, anyways:

———

The Not-So-Secret Secret

———

Word Count: 1.2k

Warnings: None

Characters: Kuboyasu Aren

———

“No one is here right now,” at your words, Kuboyasu slinks into the classroom after you, shutting the door behind him. He’s a bit nervous; then again, it’s not his fault, today has been one of the hardest days since he first started dating you! Kuboyasu wouldn’t trade your relationship for anything in the world (especially considering he’s already thought of a perfect house for the two of you with a great view) but also because this is Kuboyasu’s first time in a relationship, and he doesn’t want to mess it up.

Messing things up is the special skill that only belongs to Nendou and Kaidou – and as much as Kuboyasu considers them part of his friend circle, he knows they’d blow things out of proportion! Your privacy would be over, Kaidou and Nendou always around to coo at you guys or just be general nuisances.

It didn’t take much effort for you to convince Kuboyasu that you should keep your relationship on the “down low” until you felt prepared to take the next step together. But that made moments like these much more special, much more desperate so forgive Kuboyasu for being antsy to kiss you. It’s not his fault you’re so damn attractive! In his haste, Kuboyasu hadn’t locked the door.

Usually that wouldn’t be an issue at all but today just happened to be the day that Kaidou was hunting down Dark Reunion. And for some unknown reason Dark Reunion was lurking around your class. Kaidou glances past the class – no Dark Reunion there – but there are definitely two people in a corner. Could they be possessed? Kaidou leans in, pushing the door open slightly -- expecting to catch supernatural activities; instead he catches you and Kuboyasu… making out.

Kaidou nearly screams but instead bites his tongue. He’s about to cry from the pain but you two are too focused to see him. Kaidou leaves immediately, in shock from what he’d seen. He’s got to tell everyone now.

And then he enters class, ready to divulge your secrets but for some reason he can’t speak. (You owe Saiki a favor for that). Could this be some higher power telling Kaidou not to out your relationship? He is the only one who knows… it must be his task to protect your relationship! That’s it!

“Oi shortie, why are you standing there like an idiot?” Kaidou blanks at Nendou’s words, is he getting called an idiot by Nendou of all people? Nendou?!

“Take that back, I’m not stupid like you!”

“Duh, it’s ‘cuz you’re stupider!”

By the time you walk in, Nendou and Kaidou are going at it like a bunch of wild cats.

———

If you ask Kuboyasu, he’s been doing a great job at this “hiding your relationship” game. Sure, he’s almost kissed you twice when Takahashi walked by; Kuboyasu had to grab a chair to threaten Takahashi into silence – it’s not one of his finest moments.

You’ve managed to only call him by his first name twice, and Saiki had been walking by, but the pink-haired male hadn’t reacted, so you should be safe for now. Truthfully Saiki had heard everything clearly (Saiki could even hear Kuboyasu’s overly romantic thoughts) but Saiki would much rather pretend he heard nothing to avoid having to hold a conversation with you two. Saves him the hassle.

And things were going perfectly too – and then they weren’t because you’d called him Aren and Hairo had passed by. Unlike Saiki, Hairo didn’t seem willing to let it go.

“Oh wow, when did you become that close?!” His excitement isn’t dulled by the awkward expressions you and Kuboyasu are sporting. Your boyfriend is tempted to knock Hairo out and run away but the red head would get up almost immediately.

“Last weekend!” “Yesterday!”

Hairo ignores your double answer, “ah is this something private? That’s okay then! Don’t mind me!” He leaves, leaving both of you dumbstruck. Kuboyasu lets out a sigh of relief – today you’d once again escaped being caught.

Unbeknownst to both of you Teruhashi had been hiding in a conveniently placed closet (not because she’s stalking you or trying to hide from her adoring fans, definitely not) and had overheard everything. The minute you leave she’s scrambling out with a squeal, barely containing her excitement.

They’re so cute! I wonder if I could have a secret relationship with Saiki in the future…

(Saiki unconsciously shivers in class, for some reason he thought he felt someone with bad intentions…)

———

The next person who finds about your not-so-secret-secret relationship is Toritsuka. He didn’t mean to find out, but one of the ghosts Toritsuka had been begging to help him get a relationship had mentioned it.

“Your behavior is the reason you aren’t in a relationship like [Name] and Kuboyasu!” Toritsuka had purposefully ignored the ghost’s rebuking, instead focusing on the important part. Kuboyasu is dating you! That swine Kuboyasu hadn’t even thought to mention it! Was Kuboyasu purposefully making fun of the eternally single like Toritsuka?

He’s about to question the ghost further but the ghost vanishes before he can ask any proper questions. This leaves Toritsuka one option.

Stalk you both to get the evidence with his own eyes! When Toritsuka finally gathers concrete proof, he could burst in and have his righteously earned yelling match with Kuboyasu. You don’t just not tell your friends that you’ve gotten an S/O and get away with it.

His plan is foolproof, just follow you guys around. It’s actually surprising how Tortisuka didn’t notice earlier.  Kuboyasu tends to drift towards you, sometimes without even knowing. In group projects you’re always partnered together… it’s like you’re conjoined twins.

Is this the will of the universe, that those who are blessed will naturally be lucky in their romantic endeavors? Toritsuka glances to the side and catches Yumehara and Teruhashi fawning over Saiki – he barely stifles a sob.

On the upside if your relationship is secret then you can’t flaunt your relationship! It’s the reason he doesn’t say anything even after confirming that you two must be dating. As far as everyone else is concerned, all three of you are single.

———

You think you’re doing a great job at keeping your relationship secret! You know you have to be doing a great job. No one has noticed yet! What you don’t know is that literally everybody is aware.

And Saiki’s getting tired of the shenanigans that surround it. At first, he could just ignore everything, but that was before Kaidou found out, then Toritsuka, Saiko, Yumehara, Mera and even Hairo and Nendou! He could stand everything until Teruhashi found out – your relationship seemed to give her fantasies about the possible secret relationship Saiki and Teruhashi “should” have (it’s not going to happen).

While he could barely tolerate those antics, it hit a boiling point when you started to use him as an excuse. Someone ask what you were doing with Kuboyasu? Your instant reply is that Saiki had asked you to get something from Kuboyasu. Normally that would be fine, but Kaidou had taken it upon himself to hound Saiki into “giving up on [Name]”, as if Saiki had been interested in the first place.

Approximately half a month had passed, and Saiki swears if you try one more word, he’s going to tell everyone and get it over with. Kuboyasu had been wanting to mention it for a while too, so it shouldn’t cause that big of an issue.

The only good thing was when you finally admitted that you were dating Kuboyasu, and everyone had to put on their best “I’m totally surprised face”.

Spoiler alert: No one was surprised.
