#tanami really have the most in common 🤭

[thelocaldetective]

Kaito: So, Tak, if you since you’re dating Nanami-chan, do you feel the urge to say ‘yes we’re courting’.”

Yagami: Who even says courting anymore? Wouldn’t you just say ‘dating’?

Kaito: *He gives his friend a knowing look*

Yagami: Ugh… was that a law joke you just attempted?

Kaito: Duh.

Yagami: Where did you even come up with these things?

Proof that Tanami works out better than the other candidates

Personality traits:

• Unemotional

• Quick-witted

• Concerned

• Family oriented

• Law-biding

• Insightful

• Loving (romantically)

• Skeptical

Nanami = Men in general

Yagami = Work related (even when it’s not 😂)

Passions:

• Work

• Drinking

• Drones

• Justice (🤭)

Common denominators:

• Traumatic experiences

• Mystery

• Turn their jobs into hobbies

• Age

<> Even though Yagami is 6 years older than Nanami it’s still better in comparison to him and Sana (who’s 19 years old 😬)

• Philosophy of love (optional)

• Similar pronunciation at the end of their given names:

<> Nanami (first name)

<> Yagami (surname)

• Sex-positive 😈 (implied)

Conclusion:

I guess I love these two so much not just because of how much they have in common but also because I can’t stop thinking about how Nanami had bad past experiences that involved men and being cynical for so long she refuses to acknowledge that there can be nice guys like Yagami (if you go down the “Tanami” path)

What I love even more about this is that I, myself, can actually relate to Nanami — minus the crazy psychos like Takeda 😂 — but everything else I’ve felt before; the cheating of the ex, having to feel the hurt, being cynical about men about everything, possibly rejecting (seen when she blew Yagami off for their date nights) potential partners to protect myself from the hurt it could come with, and yeah, if I was working right now I’d probably be a workaholic too

Further more I would have loved it if they had made it to Judgement 3 (if it had been given the green light) and to just watch these two explore their new relationship. As much as I would love the idea of Yagami and Mafuyu being a canon couple I think that story is kinda finished the minute he quit being a lawyer (that’s the implication I get) and there’s almost a “no point of return” on his part at least, for her; she’d jump at the opportunity if it was given to her.

To be honest I’d more likely be on “Team Tacitus” if Nanami had was one of the girls — that you can choose to date — who had nothing in common with Yagami as I’m all for second chances but this kinda passes the bar (a little law joke for you 😜) and blows it out of the water entirely even their ship name is cute, you can’t say you don’t enjoy saying “Tanami” occasionally

<> Shortly thereafter Yagami had gotten a text from Nanami saying that she was kidnapped by Takada and was held in a black van (and gives him several other details) before her smart watch had died; leaving Yagami to search for her whereabouts.

<> He finds the van outside of the ramen shop but accidentally sets the alarm off after picking the lock on the trunk; tipping Takada off to rescue the mission

<> After the ensuring fight, Takada is arrested, Nanami clutches onto Yagami, who comforts her. She tells him that she'll pay him back for everything he's done for her, leading to her asking Yagami out on a "date."

Yukko:

Nanami has known Yukiko since high school. After the lthe “thank you for saving me” outing (AKA date 🤭) with Yagami, her friend had spotted her from across the street and briefly reunited with the latter.

AU:

Mitsu Yagami (OC):

• After giving birth to her daughter she immediately put her in a box, due to not wanting children and prioritised workload, and sent it to the Yagami Detective Agency

(But let’s say Nanami at least watched — Mitsu’s development — from afar as she grew up 🥹)
