I'm really curious, how do you think the other girls could fit into your ageswap idea? :3c
Ah yes, this is interesting. Let me see...
Tsubomi - I enjoy the popular AgeSwap interpretation of her becoming a famous tennis player, since this would fit her "unachievable perfect woman" theme, but considering her special skill is "piano" according to the fanbook, I recently had the idea of her becoming a pianist who has just gained the spotlight. Classy, beautiful, talented, full of mystery. It's the perfect mix of factors that'd make her seem "above" others. Tsubomi, though, just wants to do what she likes without people bothering her. Outside of her ladylike persona she is just a depressed 28yo
She meets Mob again after Claw's dissolution and they end up becoming friends. Mob is still quite fond of her, but less in a romantic way
Teru feels mildly threatened by her presence and mostly offended that a commoner could make him feel this way. Tsubomi doesn't fear him and also thinks he's too possessive of Mob. Get a life!
She isn't CLOSE to Tome and Mezato like they're to each other but they get along. Tsubomi enjoys having female friends she has no compromise being perfect with. Tome thinks she is awesome and Mezato still has a bit of leftover tension from her teenage years (because she is a huge lesbian. That's why)
Emi - office worker; secretly has dozens of books she doesn't have the guts to publish. The main team discovers this because they investigate her workplace for spirits and accidentally find out Emi is writing on the clock
Thanks to their presence (even more Serizawa's, because this is a point in the story he learns not to be ashamed of himself and how terrible it is to stop being a person just so people won't reject him), she gathers the courage to find a literary agent. She manages to publish a few of her books and is happy with this
Minori - an influent socialite and the heir of the Asagiri Group, she tries her most to make the traumatic events that had happened in her past just a "story of overcoming adversity"
Fun, popular. She is known for lavishing her friends with costy gifts, no matter how close, but such generosity has ulterior motives: first of all, because Minori desperately wants to convince herself she is a good person; besides that, she needs her good graces to be a weapon. Minori has to be in the top of the world, and she'll do it by pushing everybody else down. If she can't buy people's submission, she'll strip them of whatever they have. No one can hurt her again if nobody can reach her
However, her troubled teenage days seem to reach out for her again. Minori is cornered by anonymous letters and emails that mysteriously know she was admitted to a psychiatric hospital against her will in middle school, even though her father covered it up as her being at a "private school". She starts seeing a boy nobody else acknowledges — one that makes her life hell and who threatens to destroy everything she has built for herself. After Minori realizes this person is stealing her autonomy, she tries everything to get rid of him. Bargaining, pleading, trying to trap him somewhere he can't leave. The boy always returns. The boy is never satisfied by her suffering
Weeks later, the Spirits and Such Investigation Agency receives a new job. It's one of the higher-ups from the Asagiri Group, offering them a huge sum of money in exchange of them helping Minori. The charming woman everybody knew won't leave her mansion. In fact, she was barely keeping herself alive. She is seemingly trapped in a cycle of killing someone they can't see, again and again, only for this person to return, again and again
