I completely forgot that this is the context of her family. I guess my brain was filling this in like they were some important political figure or something.

Your comment was helpful to help me figure out a bit of why I think this arc has been unsatisfying to me. I don’t disagree with what you said. I think the other part of this that is frustrating to me is how much potential Kujo’s character had with her shojo brain. We got to see just a bit of the silliness that could result from her attempted interventions before the sports festival came. Instead now, she is wrapped up in this very contrived drama and it feels like her character was squandered.
