Scott and Kira

Arden Cho as KIRA YUKIMURA

“I fell in love the way you fall asleep: slowly, then all at once.”

This quote from Fault in Our Stars perfectly encapsulates Oliver’s journey in S2.  One of the great gifts of the Arrow S2 finale was not only did Oliver confess his love for Felicity (and yes, he meant it), but we as viewers FINALLY had confirmation that we watched Oliver fall in love with Felicity slowly…moment by moment in the prior 22 episodes.  

However, I believe, there was one moment,  when Oliver fell in love with Felicity all at once.

Let’s start with S2 moments where we see Oliver slowly falling in love with Felicity.

How Allison Argent, Scott's human WHITE girlfriend, is great at combat despite just being a human without magic, while Kira Yukimura, Scott's supernatural ASIAN girlfriend, is not. Kira was a nice person & a good character w/ lots of potential & the writers/director just... threw it away?!? Just to have her as the token Asian character & a damsel-in-distress w/ poor sword "skills"? C'mon!

Anyone familiar with kitsune stories know how much potential Kira had (she could've defeated were-creatures & humans with lightning, as both are vulnerable to electricity! She could even had channel lightning into her katana, that would've been badass), but she ended up being written for the main purpose of being Scott's girlfriend to replace Allison, but he doesn't even treat her as good as he treated Allison − as if Kira is less important than his White ex-girlfriend. Kira deserved much better (I suggest a properly-written plot & Malia as her aggressive, supportive girlfriend).
