Original blank and elaboration below:

So Gero really seems to suffer from a certain level of dissociative amnesia from when he was a child and active repression of his own feelings.

There’s a couple things that are interesting to me here. One is that he’s continuing to repress past memories. He’s clearly remembering child Kinosaki here, reminiscing as an adult, and actively Not Thinking Any Farther Than That. We don’t even get child Kinosaki’s eyes. For whatever reason, whatever Gero is repressing specifically in relation to Kinosaki, he is still repressing. I’m interested if it’s a specific memory (did they meet?) or a general emotional feeling in relation to Kinosaki ie some level of a childhood crush that Gero knew then would not be accepted in any way by his family (since Gero’s like 1 hobby and method of communicating he specifically picked up in relation to Kinosaki, which he also Does Not Comment On. Just like how Gero provides no commentary on the repeated attraction he currently displays towards Kinosaki)

That girl everyone’s talking about

She's so unserious
