#this id going to the maintag i didnt write a 3k words post for nothing

[hitsuyou-fukaketsu]

shav would you know why subaru is the main character and the enstars mascot and gets to be the center at least half of the time and gets treated like the leader of trickstar but hokuto is the actual official leader of trickstar. is it because hokuto does the paperwork for idol activities and subaru doesn’t

Thank you so much for this question Aurie, in my analysis I became a little emotional and started crying /pos

Ok first of all, hokke is trickstar's center and subaru isnt treated as trickstar's leader. Their main deal is that they are equals, they are from the same year and they are all friends, in the very start there wasnt even a leader! The leader was stablished at the end of akatsuki's S2 in the ! Main story, this leader was... Anzu! Anzu was the very first leader of trickstar!! And later the leadership was passed onto hokke bc Anzu cant be a part of trickstar in paper since she is not an idol herself.

I have to say that they also confuse themselves too and forget about the leader thing (bc they are equals!!!)

So yeah in the end the leader of Trickstar was pushed onto Hokke. It's not as if he's the best leader tho, that would be mao or makoto HAHAH he is truly confrontational and gets angry easily. But imo it fits him, it's as if he is laughing at his parents who never once congratulate him for winning the ddd or who clapped for him when he betrayed his friends. It's a sign of his rebellion against his own parents, he does what he wants now and doesn't care about what they think, because he has found people who truly care about him.

Why is Subaru the main character? You know a lot of characters talk about "protagonists" and "main character" but why is Subaru the main character and the mascot of the game?

OKAY IM SAYING IT AGAIN

Subaru means "pleiades" as in the constellation, Mr.Akehoshi's favourite star, it means 'to unite' and akehoshi means star/s (or shiny star if you will) so subaru akehoshi means ensemble stars! Likewise, Anzu takes the first and last syllables of enstars in katakana

They are two sides of the same coin! Anzu is Subaru's pair in the 7th anni!

They are truly bonded, they are the bestest of friends! They have seen each other at their worst and Anzu was a decesive point in Trickstar's revolution.

It's true that Hokke was the start, he had the initial drive to lead the revolution and it wasnt until rabits' complete lost against akatsuki that Subaru had the same fuel, because someone important to him got hurt.

But the point is that Hokke was stopped when Eichi wanted to disband trickstar, he even had the approval of his parents and Hokke has always done what his parents say.

After Trickstar's disbanded Anzu was the only one that stayed with Subaru. Everyone else stopped talking to him and even he starts calling Hokke by his name, Hokuto.

because he wasnt alone anymore and with her help he could win. They hold great admiration for each other.

Anzu came to like idols thanks to trickstar, thanks to Subaru's Trickstar. The very first step she made to help their revolution was to help Subaru when he was left all alone, and thanks to that they could participate in the ddd and reunite with everyone else.

Everyone wanted them to win. Because although Eichi thought he left Subaru with nothing they came back after him because they are not alone and because friendship is the thing that made them strong, something old fine didn't have. Subaru was not alone and his fate is not the same as his father, he will not be alone at the top and later die. He will reach the top with his friends, with their support and their strenght.

So my point is that Subaru is the mascot of enstars and its protagonist because Anzu wants him to be.
