The reason why i always hate the girl in love tm, in shounen, is because only girls love and have obsession with it, the guys never are interested in romance, or don't even understand it, people say bc it is a Shounen, so romance is not the focus, but this isn't a excuse, since there are a lot of female characters who have this feelings, so why can't guys too?

And before someone say it's unrealistic, this is not true! I know plenty of guys who have crushes, want to have girlfriends and live a romance.

i'm all for her having friends! but i think the syndicate is ultimately just going to burn her even worse than lmanburg's fate did.

like i dunno! i don't think phil and techno are very good at being there for people who're in a bad place mentally. i mean look at fundy, too, or ranboo as well.

I don't think it's a bad opinion honestly. Like, I'm not the biggest fan of c!Techno and his mentality in general (and c!Phil still mostly follows him) and I generally don't think that's good for anyone.

Like c!Techno's mentality basically can be boiled down to: "If you punch me in the face I'll burn your house down and murder your family" but like, even more extreme because he considers someone not agreeing with that statement as a punch in the face in and of itself. And that's without considering that he STILL wants to uphold the favour he owes to a f*cking canonical abuser which just shows you that literally his morality is laughable at best.

That said! Niki really doesn't spend all that time with them. Like, yes the Syndicate is sort of a thing but they meet once every blue moon and do nothing so I really don't think they're much of an influence at all on her actually. They are just some very needed human contact I suppose.

Honestly I still think that Niki should get other friends as well mostly so that she gets an actual sense of community and belonging because 1 hour meetings with 3 month long intervals in between aren't exactly much.
