*This should've been posted, like, a week ago. Whoops! Luckily, due to the sheer number of match-ups in this competition, we won't have to cut down on the duration at all - just keep in mind it'll be stacked back in with Seed A2 next round!

Junko/Sonia

Sonia might’ve been the easiest member of the SDR2 crew for Junko to potential drag to despair in a non-brainwashing way simply through mutual understanding of what it means to be a public figure and the specific type of awareness they both have about society and its longevity. Junko “causes apocalypse” vs Sonia “society is a fruit that will inevitably rot.” They r made for each other in an evil way <3

ALTERNATIVELY the enemies to lovers of it all…understanding your enemy’s views but coming to completely different conclusions. Society Sucks So Let’s Destroy It vs Society Sucks So Let’s Make It Better. the PARALLELOGRAMS

No matter the verse these two are like. the definition of a power couple. Ultimate girlbosses. They have famously affectionate twitter accounts. They are ignoring accusations of war crimes. God forbid women do anything

Ryoko/Tsumugi

We have invented ourselves for the sake of despair, neither of us are real in any way that matters, we are destined to die to a greater and more cruel reality than we permit ourselves to reckon with and on some level we welcome it, and on some level we feel, intuitively, that we deserve it. We are our own abusers, and we kill ourselves, and we die to ourselves.

All of the appeal of Tsumugi’s crush on Junko but with EVEN MORE moral complexity. You meet a version of your idol who fundamentally lacks most of their traits but is, undeniably, them. When you fall in love with the ship of Theseus, does it mean anything when you keep hold of one of its earliest boards? Are you holding a keepsake or a piece of a corpse?
