the love between yuuta and rika is fundamentally twisted because of the nature of their relationship that's why it's so significant that yuuta calls it pure and means it with his whole chest. btw. like you can try to make it less weird if you want but it's always going to be Weird. he turned his childhood wife into a monster and she grew up with him but also never actually grew up, he doomed her into a body that will never grow up, and yet he tells her he loves her and kisses her on the mouth and apologizes for having to move their engagement ring to his right hand because it’s customary of a groom to wear it on his left. there will be a romantic angle to it no matter how you spin it. if that makes you uncomfortable; good ! that's the foundation. jjk as a whole, but jjk 0 especially is about twisted and unorthodox love, it was never meant to be healthy or pure. the love between satoru and suguru isn't pure. the love between yuuta and rika isn't pure. that's why "it's pure love" hits so hard. because yuuta believes it.

[EXTREMELY HAUNTED & HOLLOW-EYED LOOK] yeah man i’m doing. Really good

i think about this more often than necessary, but what character do you think you'd have the cutest baby with?
