I'm ngl akari was such an opp like????? imagine letting your internalised homophobia affect the happiness of people you consider close crazy work clearly it was fucking unnecessary seeing as how they got together anyway AND THEN HE GETS A BOYFRIEND "a man liking another man isn't normal" boo fucking hoo bro you have no right to ruin relationships with ur sad soppy backstory
he was wrong for that yes, but clearly u don't understand how scary being part lf the community is, especially because of what happened to them before, he just didn't want sato to receive negative attention again as he obviously still feel guilty from the past. he kinda downplayed their feelings tho, and hurt their relationship in the process, but even mikami understood that, so how could u not? (not mad or anything, just coming from someone as part of the community, tho I am open about my sexuality, but it is easier to empathize than to judge them for how/what society made them think)

I think mikami empathized better because they're friends. Idk bcs me personally I've faced a lot of homophobia in the past and I know how scary it can be to be treated badly just for being part of the community but I wouldn't tell my friends to stop pursuing a relationship because they're gay. I guess the fact that queerness is more accepted here than in Japan also factors into that. Sato's choices are his, and it's not like Mikami's liking of sato was just immediately going to ruin his life.
