I love the realistic representation both of Fuyutsuki’s disability, and the way Sorano second-guesses himself constantly out of fear (not the parts where he’s just scared though). I know Sorano’s character arc is probably going to be all about getting out of his own head, so I’m not exactly faulting him for being the way he is… but when he does go out of his way to make a move, it really warms me up to him.
I don’t know if this is intentional, but having a blind FL makes it really hard not to empathize with her condition–I’m constantly acutely aware of how the world must feel like through her “eyes”. All the little auditory details really stand out. (Too bad I don’t understand enough Japanese to close my eyes and just listen to the show.)
I like that they went to the effort of (plausibly) animating her right-hand on the piano, but I guess doing the left hand too was too much work :p
