Random, but this reminded me that Rin seemed to actually see through Sensei's whole "pretending to care to get your clothes off" stuff:
Probably another reason that Sensei x Rin hasn't worked out.
Oh oh, I like this topic; Ik people here are not going to agree with me in this, but I still have to say it:
I've never bought that "
pretendig to care to take of your clothes" whole thing, I just think that's just not true, or at least not enterely true.
I'm going to need to explain this in parts, parts that maybe are not in correct order or still need more work because is a thought that I still haven't finished putting up together.
Well, sure, taking off the pants of his students seems to be like the final goal for Akira, and even if it takes more or less time sometimes, he always ends up doing it, so yeah, but what if it is totally backwards?
So, first of, I don't believe that the care or concern that Sensei shows for his studenst is fake, indeed, I think he's
trying to pretend that he's pretending to care, and who is he trying to fool? Himself.
He all the time says how he really don't care about his students problems and how he do that only for his goal of taking of their pants, but how I see it, he's just trying to convince himself of that, I don't believe even in the things he says for himself lol
Why do i believe that? Because in the past we've seen him showing signs of truly corncern and care about his students, there has been a lot of situations in which he shouldn't have gotten involved in, and above all, situations in which he wasn't going to get anything back for being involved in, and yet still he did, he cared enough for people around him to go one extra mile with the only purpose of help.
I dont have enough willpower to sit myself in searh of those events to take ss and bring them here, but I think we all can think a couple events where the care he has shown is genuine, with Yumi, Rin, Molly, Chika and more girls, so much that he has even come to wish that the part of himslef that always end screwing up would dissapear, or at least it to be not that strong.
But why so much need to mask his good actions then?
Well, this Sensei version we see seems to be devoid of almost all good emotions, he never laugh, he never seems to be happy or enjoy anything, not even sex, and that have carried him to a state of self deprecation, he totally despises himself, and that infinite slef contempt is what makes him always ending up justifying everything he does in a bad way.
For me, the train of thought of Sensei for a lot of the time is not "I'm going to do
this, so I can take advante of it"
BUT "I did
this, but I'm surely did it so only I can take advantage of in a future" and how I see it, that's not the same.
And this type of self-sabotage is much more common in real life than it may seem, it's not only relate to, but if you're someone with depression or relative to someone with it, I'm sure you can identify this kind of behalf in which for some reason the person always try to ruin everything good, either with future actions or with guilty for even the good things that happens.
And this game seems to be very related to depression with all the "Why everything has to hurt so much"
Which goes in hand with the next point which is "why always Sensei ends up getting to bed with his students?"
Well, I have to answers with that: Because he hates himself, and because he HAVE to.
But first clarify that this is a genuine question I've ask myself, why he do that? He doesn't seem like he enjoys it after all, as said before, yeah, he seems like always looking for it, but why do something that gives you that little satisfaction.
Well, again as kinda said before, because that is his way of punishment, to say to himself or making him a bad person, if what I've said before has something true in it, Sensei does not care for his students to have sex with them, he have sex with them to confirm himself all the bad person he is. It is the point of unhappiness, dissatisfaction, self-hatred and self-sabotage in which he is.
And second, because
he must do it, why? I guess because god of whatever behind all this world needs it:
Seen how the game goes so far, and how the Sensei's personality seemed to change with every factory reset, I think there are interests of one or more gods for Sensei to sleep with his close people, for a reason he was put in a world without any man, and for a reason someone seems to keep track of how many girst Sensei has brought to Viriginia, there's also the stories of Yasu's god wanting Sensei to breed other people or the time that Sensei was forced to do things that he wouldn't do by his own will.
I would say that the version of Sensei we are seeing is the result of years of experimentation with him, removing and putting emotions (or burying undearnth his feets) and now it is the result of having removed enough of his empathy to carry out his mission, without removing so much that he goes crazy or ends up doing other things.
