I'm not sure about Imani being comfortable with doing that with one of her students since we should remember that she's overly secretive with her skin condition plus the fact that she doesn't entirely approve of Sensei's relationship with his students.
I agree with tackling this from the utility side like how Sensei pays for their phone bills. But maybe this isn't mentioned because I'd say Chika will also decline Tsubasa's any offer, for this isn't by her standard something she struggles to handle. A part of the reason Chika finally agreeing with Sensei paying for phone bills is because at the time Chinami wanted a new phone, which posed as a suddenly appeared financial burden. But even then Sensei had to push Chika a bit to make it happen. Plus, I think Chika has been fighting against these odds by herself for so long that it also becomes her sense of purpose, and any external help might partially be viewed as "decreasing her importance" in her own or Chinami's life (aka, pride kicks in like everyone said). Personally I'd be as stubborn as her if I was Chika; forgoing your ego for the sake of others and accepting help that you know you have no way to repay aren't something easy to do.
That would require displacing the people who live in those units. Sure, she could buy them out, but they'd all have to move to a different place, and they'd probably insist it be at her expense, so she'd have to buy the units, pay for those families to relocate, and pay for the rennovations. There's also the paperwork (permits and contracts) and people managing, not to mention the fact that while we know there have to be construction crews operating in Kumon-mi, there can't be that many, and they are probably booked out several months/years in advance, so that's not a quick fix.
The way she says "Akira...Arakawa..." makes it seem like not only does she know something about Akira, somehow that being connected to the Arakawas is important. Maybe she's heard whispers about Akira from Sekai and is just now realizing that Akira was her little brother-in-law?
i Took this more like she wanted to know what Otoha knows.
She either knows the name Akira on her head because of Sekai.
If she had heard Akira's full name before, connecting that to Sensei would be less of a surprise and more of a confirmation.
Maybe. It seemed more like she wanted Otoha to tell her if she knows he's actually sleeping with a teenager, or to stop slandering him if he's not, because he is her friend and stuff like that will make him look bad, at least to me.
There's a small chance that she's been assigned to his classroom specifically to report any evidence of improper sexual contact, and all her "I'm really into him" energy is a front so that she's able to fly under radar.
So she's a fookin' narc eh? Might explain the dead stare into the mirror and the broiled skin eh? Personal experience? Deep undercover and yet again having to cozy up to her worst nightmare and most hated kind of person, a kid fucker...
That's why I said small chance, as it doesn't really fit the "everything is convenient for Akira" feel of the game.
Yumi's interactions during Douchebag McDouchefuck also feel like early-game Yumi, rather than the version of her that she grew into over 2.5 chapters. So she was killed, and rolled back to Day 1.
Real Ami seemed to be busy with Sana at the dorms:
Props to you and your sharp eyes
Had a horrible feeling that not only Makoto won't make it during the next reset (who I somehow think has better odds than Yumi or Tsuneyo), at some point we would lose Ayane as well to turn the dark gear to full throttle.
That Mangled/Happy Ami seems to talk like HOPE at that time, and this image shows up after she does:Props to you and your sharp eyes
But man this really fucked up my mood if that puddle of blood was what’s left of her…to think maybe Maya would have ended like this as well if Sensei didn't show up during the 4th reset.
Also, now that I look at that Ami on the wall again, the smile is not yellow and is upside down red like HOPE (the entire dialogue reeks of HOPE as well). Originally I thought girls disappearing during resets is either the work of roadkilled Ami because "she wanted an ideal world to be with Sensei sexually and exclusively", or the work of amiokay (assuming the lurking naked girl around during resets is her) due to god-related reasons. But now maybe both are manifestations of HOPE's deeds.
