Rhetoric [Medium: Success] - You don't have to say everything out loud. Just mix and match.

You - "I think this is personal for you. I think you had feelings for her."

Glen - "Pft!" Glen explodes with indignation. "Everyone's got feelings for each other! Where are you going with this?!"

narratively I am a fan of romances that don’t ever actually become romances

I don’t mean in an aromantic life partner way, I mean romantic tension that is never resolved or acted upon for whatever reason but by the end it’s clear that both characters experienced the love of their lives without ever acknowledging it as such. but they know. they know.

maybe the unbridgeable gulf between them is culture, or class, or religion, or maybe their chief commitment is to something other than each other. maybe they decide it’s more important to keep the peace than to risk the complications of a relationship. maybe they’re just weary of change and content with things the way they are because it’s simpler that way. for whatever reason nothing is ever consummated between them, emotionally or physically.

I love that kind of quiet tragedy.

I see, thank you for explaining! I think Kanae's feelings of dislike are understandable because she's definitely tried her hardest to love Anthy and it must be upsetting having a woman you're supposed to get along with and love hate you for reasons you have no idea about. The fact that Kanae wasn't raised to deal with her dislike of others properly and recognize her negative feelings are valid doesn't help either.

Hmm well I think that’s ultimately one of the things that the show is trying to say about these sorts of situations. Neither Kanae nor Anthy are the villains in this scenario, and both their negative feelings toward each other are understandable in context. Akio is the villain because he has a broader perspective (and just generally more power) than the two of them, but chooses to use that against them and engineer scenarios in which he can turn them against each other.

asks anon rgu i do think that characters like kanae and wakaba and how they relate to anthy are v interesting in this regard characters who do make an effort not to actually voice/take out their anger on anthy but the fact that the anger is there is still significant because it comes from a place of pinning blame on an easy target rather than deal with difficult truths and i think the show does posit that this hatred is in itself harmful bc someone like anthy will Know and Recognize it even when u think ur hiding it the feelings themselves can be entirely understandable in the context of ur limited perspective but once ur perspective becomes broader… then what? can you face the harm that you unwittingly perpetuated? whether it’s truly your fault or not becomes irrelevant sometimes which is what the rooftop apologies were about ofc in kanae’s case she never got a chance to broaden her perspective because she… well we don’t really know what happened to her 😔 her story is just a total tragedy anyway. im rambling fr now sorry

What's Anthy's beef with Kanae? Kanae is one of the only few people who haven't done anything to her outside of the influence of the black rose duels.

They have a really interesting (and very sad) dynamic tbh! I think part of it is just the inevitable result of Akio’s abuse/grooming. The anger and frustration of having to be quiet about it, and at Kanae’s ignorance. Anthy hating Kanae also makes things a lot easier for Akio, so he very likely encouraged/exacerbated those feelings on purpose… But on top of that, while Kanae tries very hard to keep (at least the appearance of) the peace, she admits in her elevator confession that no matter how she tries, she can’t bring herself to love Anthy. In fact, she scapegoats Anthy in exactly the way that Akio likely intended her to, blaming her father’s poisoning(?) on Anthy rather than on Akio, the one who actually stands to gain anything from her father’s decline/death.

I think Anthy’s feelings toward Kanae are probably complicated in the same way that her feelings toward Utena and Nanami are very complicated, but in Kanae’s case, she’s already resigned herself to the fact that there is no saving her, and also to the fact that Kanae will blame everything on Anthy rather than on Akio. That’s just the pattern that Anthy has known her whole life and has come to expect: the rose bride exists for the purpose of taking the million swords of the world’s hatred in the prince’s place. She can’t afford to feel any affection for Kanae in this situation 😔

Interestingly, Kanae’s duelist motif is white lilies, which are associated with Hera. I think the Zeus/Hera comparison with Akio and Kanae again brings attention to the way that Akio misdirects Kanae’s (and really everyone’s) fear and anger away from himself and onto Anthy 😔😔😔
