Another thing I’m excited for the full game to explore is how far Ais’s rage goes - how brutal and vicious he can get when he lets his ice cool façade melt away.
Like what do y’all think can trigger Ais into full blown, destructive anger? This is actually exciting for me to undercover because he’s seems SO laid-back yet his fatal flaw is letting his emotions control him to the point that he sees red LITERALLY. What would be his breaking point? And how much damage will he cause when he lets pure, unadulterated rage take over him? I WANT TO SEE HIM AT HIS WORST HONESTLY!!!!!
Ais is very self-conscious about how he appears to you(“three bad impressions is enough”). I truly believe, deep down, he wants to be seen as a good person(whether he’s willing to make the steps to be an ACTUAL good person remains to be seen). However, he accepts his violent reputation because that’s what everyone thinks of him automatically and at this point of his story, it just easier to go along with what other people think instead of proving them wrong.
A mini theory I have for his route is that it’ll have a theme of self-fulfilling prophecy: people already think the worst of him - imagine us getting close to Ais only to start not only thinking the worst of him but genuinely fearing him, too. I think that would definitely push him over the edge and he’ll go full villain because the closest person to him thinks he’s a heartless, depraved monster, so fuck it, why not prove us right, then? And THAT’S one of his triggers.
I also think that’s why he dislikes Mhin so much; Mhin has such a LOW, negative opinion of him without bothering to get to know him better. When we ask him about his opinion on Mhin, he’s very open about the fact that he’s bothered that no matter how much he tries to be non-threatening to them, Mhin stills thinks he’s a piece of shit - and that pisses him off.
So yeah, I feel a way to get a bad end in Ais’s route is be like most people and think of him as a fearsome monster, and Ais will eventually be like “fuck it. If you think I’m a bad guy, then I’m a bad guy” and will start destroying everything and everyone in his way.
Ais is just a widdle guy with big feelings, please be gentle with him :/
