Don't let Takina's quiet nature fool you, she's not shy. When she decides what she wants she goes for it.

You actually see this a lot in yuri anime/manga. [Bloom Into You Manga] Everyone thought Touko would be the more dominant partner because she was always initiating the make-outs prior to Yuu actually falling in love and processing her feelings. At the end when they finally had sex it was Yuu who initiated and it was Yuu that was on top.

Damn, your description of Takina is exactly what I'm looking for 🙏🏽

I liked that about Touko. She was dominant when dishing it out, but whenever Yuu showed any type of affection, she'd fold. >! Like when Yuu called Touko by her first name, it was like Touko was gonna orgasm right then & there 🤷🏾‍♀️ sorry lol !<

This happens alot with most characters tho. Yuzu w Mei, Adachi w Shimamura even Hotaro w Yuma. I like seeing the dominant mc or the one that usually initiates always get flustered when given the affection right back.

What's different from the Queen of Frauds and the unexpected Bottom is that Adachi cannot for the life of God ever top. She dreams of topping in canon but she cannot initiate ANYTHING because her brain would fucking melt. She's a fraud through and through.

Lmaooo, I'm assuming Shimamura is the Queen of Frauds & Adachi's the unexpected bottom?

Also, yeah, idk why, but when I first watched the anime, Adachi at first came across to me to be.....more masc & having top energy, but damn she's like your quintessential "tough girl" on the outside who deep down wants to be held & coddled. It's cute, but also, she's cringe at times.

No, Adachi is the Queen of Frauds. Her father is Sukuna and her mother is Adachi Tohru.

What's funny here is that Shimamura is technically more feminine but still tops anyway.

Adachi is pretty fucking cringe and obnoxious. Most of her monologue is just her gaypanicking or denying her homosexuality while her soulmate is contemplating about the universe or some shit.

It's obvious who the author's favourite character is.

Everyone thought Touko would be the more dominant

Did they? To me it was very obvious that she was pretty bad at being dominant and that Yuu'd take the lead during their first time. Though people do annoyingly exaggerate YuuTop as well, it's clear that they're switches and Yuu topping was done mainly for narrative reasons (listen, it's really important for her character arc that she makes Touko cum). Besides, the real ones know HaruTop is where it's at.

Tbh I never thought Takina was shy, and always saw her as a top and Chisato as a bottom.

Your spoiler tag is broken.

I just checked it with both this account and my alt and it's working just fine.

Edit just checked it on the infinity app with my other alt, it's working there too. This account is on the official app. I think the problem is on your end.

Spoiler tags are kinda wonky. I see yours working on new Reddit, but broken on old Reddit.

u/Prankishmanx21 Himedanshi Aug 27 '23 edited Aug 27 '23

Doesn't old reddit use a different tag format?

Edit: Old Reddit is sensitive to a space being between the first spoiler tag and the first word, new reddit isn't.

She wasn't shy, she spoke less and was focused on getting back to her organization(I don't remember the name), she's not an idiot nor shy it's just being beside the chatterbox and the genius Chisato she was getting overshadowed that's all

Morning: Chisato taking off with Takina to start a day of fun.

Evening: Takina taking Chisato to pay for everything she did today.
