This relegation makes me think I am kind of asexual lol. I’ve felt this way for a while but never had the words to say it coherently so thanks for describing why I had liked Hikaru so much
Yeh I actually thought about how that would feel for him, but Im gray-asexuell so its probably really close to how I feel haha
Yea that's exactly how I saw it too, the way he experiences things so differently definitely reminds me of being on the aroace spectrum
Pointless observation, but Hikaru being unable to experience sexual desire but knows when something is sexy is oddly a very good way to explain asexuality. Feel like I can appreciate the story a bit more in that way. cool stuff
