@ChristiJunior My love for Misty may be toxic nostalgia, but at it's core it's an appreciation for the natural beauty that 90's and 2000's tomboys were so good at. As much as I will 😭 for Blue Archive girls, all of them are specifically crafted, pandering almost, to the point where they get lost among each other. Neru, while quite the bratty gaki, would preform about the same as about any other Blue Archive girl in her spot. The fact that I know Neru's name only because of Pixiv tags rather than the actual game is a testament to the lack of sincerity of her design. The natural beauty of Kasumi ("Misty" for you gaijin) warms the heart thanks to the tasteful classic design sense of Ken Sugimori, which Misty lovers have experienced first hand via the source materials, not via 60 browser tabs on a booru at 4AM. Misty is not just *a* vidya girl, she may be THE vidya girl.
