many many reasons ok here are the big ones
- super relatable! every time i reread baton pass i have to put my phone down and sigh during her argument with tetora. i relate to so many of her inner conflicts it’s a little embarrassing.
- really cute! cute in the way a cat is after it has a shower and it’s all soggy and gross but aww awwww
- her love of mascots! one of my favorite things ever is when people are passionate about something and midori loves her mascots. i want her to infodump to me
- her love for her friends. i think it’s sweet to see how much more she’s grown to love ryuseitai over the course of the series.
- (cheering up through manga) midori takamine 3*.
