YESSS I THOUGHT I WAS THE ONLY ONE THAT ADORED DEGUCHI'S SELF-LOVE
Usually it goes, "I don't care if you don't love me or you keep lying to me, I'll still love you...." and it always establishes this "ride or die" type of love where the person literally devotes himself to someone even if they're really hurt or getting the blunt end of a situation. Deguchi proves that if you're fed up with how things are playing out, you can cut off yourself from that situation before it gets way worse . ╮(￣▽￣)╭
i totally agree. He is the real portrait of loce yourself first. Appreciate his character so much.
honestly i love deguchi!!! the fact that he stood up for himself against onoda. like, when he was like, “you can think all you want, but im not ashamed of myself” when it came to if he had sex with other. or when he was like “I don’t love you enough to tolerate you lying to me. I’m not that nice” that was AMAZING. I never seen a character actually put their foot down and but themself first. it was really refreshing, because a lot of characters in bls let their partner run over them, nearly in a toxic way. so, seeing deguchi basically say “i am not going to let you talk to me any type of way” REALLY secured his spot as favorite character for me.
