I've got a bad feeling about this. And the rest of the upcoming Rin stuff. I'm not exactly sure why its just a vibe I'm getting, It will probably just be some setup for whatever the next inevitable Rin suffering will be though. In the classic style It will all kind of be Akira's fault. Predator Haruka, Crazy Chika, etc. I hope it doesn't go that way, but sometimes It feels like Rin is cursed by Akira's existence. If he wasn't around She would have got together with Chika and none of the stuff that has happened and whatever might happen next would come to pass. Its a bit of a strange relationship they have from that perspective. He's kind of the source of a lot of her suffering in a round about way but also seemingly her brightest light in those moments of suffering. If you could consider Akira to have been malicious it would be pretty messed up really. But being collateral damage its more complicated to think about. I wonder if Haruka's future actions will be used as a lens to more clearly view it all through.
