That's the difference between Kana and Akane. Akane told Aqua she'd help him kill the guy. Kana would probably yell at him and call him an idiot for clinging to his revenge. I wholeheartedly agree with your assessment that while Akane is an amazing character, she's not a good fit with Aqua as a couple.

Incest is funny, unironically

Rainer Reinhardt

was also about to comment that. at least thats how i read the scene

Alex

It's not jealousy lol, Ruby is still traumatized from Ai's death.

there is no contextual reason for her to mention it damn near every time she has dialogue. i’m trying to (off the top of my head tbf) think of an episode she was featured in where she didn’t at some point go on about it. i’m glancing at the episode list for season 1 and i’m almost positive she did in every episode. even if it *logically* makes sense for her to mention it, bringing it up that much is dumping it onto people and personally i just take issue with that bc like i said people have their own problems to deal with they don’t need to be burdened with hearing yours all the time. heck the most recent episode she brought it up in multiple different scenes. melt asked her why she lashes out at akane and kana goes into a monologue that veers into talking about her not getting jobs. she confronts akane unprompted at the end and again mentions her childhood acting before they go on. it just really rubs me the wrong way that seemingly every time she talks to anyone she ends up on the subject of her personal issues.

That will be later, she mentioned Kana taking the jobs she was going for last episode but the scene you are referring to has not come up yet, probably want to delete this since it would be a potential spoiler.

Maybe I am crazy but I feel like any time she has talked about her traumas has had good context for, feel free to bring up examples to prove me wrong though, it's hard to remember everything but nothing jumped out at me as pure trauma dumping.

Wait, it's a boyfriend's duty to not let his girlfriend die? No wonder none of my relationships last.

I could have sworn that was the flash back when Kana was having a talk with Aqua on the stairs.

KatoBen

that scene comes later, i believe.

I mean I understand how it can be misunderstood, and Ruby probably has complicated feelings since she was in love with Aqua in their past lives, not that either of them know that.

I was shocked Alicia immediately jumped to incest jealousy. It's clear as day Ruby despises teenage pregnancy and how it can ruin their lives, and anyone that would careless allow it to happen.

KatoBen

aqua giving himself a whole mental breakdown/panic attack to make something better is so something i'd do as well lmao

SpiderBedo

I'm sure she's seen the stupid incest memes this series gets online and believes it.

crazizzle85

This is what those stupid incest memes are doing to anime onlies. They're believing this shit out of context lol. Ruby knows what her mom went through to hide a pregnancy. Akane is a star. She would hate him for being irresponsible. It's a little unfair to him, but she's very immature. I swear, man.

crazizzle85

@4:27 I completely agree. If anything, the nefarious inner voice came out last episode *because* he had started enjoying himself when acting. So I, too, think that he's more willing to show people his previous videos due to his outlook changing, even if only slightly.

Quinton Macejkovic

Ruby's not jealous of Aqua... she absolutely hates the idea of Aqua potentially doing the same thing to a girl that their father did to Ai - ESPECIALLY since they both are very aware that they are the extreme case of what can happen - having their entire childhoods wrecked with the murder of their mother.

jdoggivjc

IMO Ruby was not jealous. She reacted that way because AI got pregnant at that age and it hit home suggesting aqua would do that

UmmMocha

Lol Ruby's reaction is 100 just related to Ai. I'm pretty sure it's showing that Ruby's also been hiding stuff like Aqua, maybe even better, and is also still affected by Ai's death like him, too.

WhopsInc.

Akane is the epitome of committing to the bit, whether the bit is acting or murdering. <3

DragonPup

Alicia misreading the fuck out of that Ruby situation 🤣.

there’s a lot of instances where i feel that’s not the case. it comes off as a bit self centered to me. again, just me but it’s a huge red flag to me when someone is always bringing something like that up in conversation. people (especially someone like aqua) have their own burdens to deal with and it may sound cold but i find it rude for people to then add their own onto your pile without you first consenting to do that for them. i’ve had many a relationship fail from either myself or my partner doing that (not always consciously). it’s very rough on the mental health.

plug-in panda

Usually there is contextually reason for her to bring it up, as the thing discussed when she brings it up is usually calling people like her child self out in most occasions she brings it up and it's usually in a context of "don't be like that it" and in gag format joking about how bad she was. The actual trauma stemming from it, her anxieties, her fears, are something she usually doesn't bring up to others.

An alle Schweizer Staatsbürger, fröhlichen 1. August! 🇨🇭 🥳🎆

Chamoun101

i actually feel like kana isn’t good at all for aqua either. she has one of the biggest red flags that i pay attention to when dating in that she is frequently trauma dumping bringing up her insecurities etc from being a child actor even when contextually there’s no reason for it come up. the last thing aqua (who can’t even handle his own problems) needs is someone who steers every conversation to their own problems. it’s hard to find instances in any episode she’s apart of where she doesn’t do that. all that said aqua shouldn’t be (and doesn’t appear to be) pursuing any relationships because he would also be a terrible partner right now. he needs therapy not a gf lmao.

plug-in panda

Ruby being upset is probably because of what their mother went through with a teenage pregnancy, not because Aqua is with Akane.

IvI

Very great episode, I'm eating uo the Kana v Akane drama... Though I also got the ick feels from the passing interactions of that skirt chasing theatre boy

UndeaditeJesse

That's gonna be recorded on Twitch in probably half an hour from now. Just get on twitch.tv/aliciaxlife ... Or wait for the patreon upload later in the day

UndeaditeJesse

Ruby said "He'd never do something that could get a high school girl pregnant" referring to Ai and what happened to her. It wasn't jealousy in that way. Not sure how that one slipped by you lol xP

Xros the Fox

The reason why Ruby reacted so harshly to the idea of Aqua getting actually intimate with Akane is not out of jealousy. Ai gave birth to the twins as a teen without a father, so it's understandable that Ruby hates the idea of Aqua being that irresponsible.

Omniasu

Because of her mother Ai's issue, Ruby hates things like high school pregnancy without responsibility.. That's why her dark eyes come out. It is her trauma. Ruby is one of closest person who watch Ai's hardship..(teenage mother's hardship)
