why i love ritsu - a thread ♡
why i love ritsu - a thread ♡
a thread on why ritsu is subjectively the best, and only enstars character that matters 
/j
anyway, ignore the typos, i wrote a lot of this during my five minute breaks in between online classes
also yes, this is all my opinion.
if you don't agree, make your own thread.

note that this is a thread about why I love ritsu, not why YOU should love ritsu (although if you don't im gonna have to ask you to soft block me rn— /j)

for starters, i guess i should say that ritsu is a very important character to me. kohaku might be my favorite, but ritsu definitely means something more to me in terms of emotional value.
in truth, i really didn't like ritsu when i started the game. he just seemed pretty basic—

—which is what also led me to resent knights as a whole for a while until i seriously started looking into picking a favorite (which was leo).
overtime i started to actually read the stories, and i had finally gone back and read judgement.

i remember during the time that i had—
—read judgement, i was in a pretty rough spot as i didn't know what i really wanted out of life and was dealing with major trust issues.
i think hearing ritsu's talk with tsukasa kind of gave me this revelation that i wasn't completely alone. i used to isolate myself a lot back—

—then. i never wanted to ask for help, and i still struggle with asking for it, to this day.
this talk he has with tsukasa was the thing that settled it for me, and ritsu became my favorite.
(also why ritsukasa is still my favorite ship in enstars, period.)

the next reason is that he's relatable.
call me biased, but i'm pretty sure 90% of people tend to have some sort of favoritism towards their kins/characters they can relate to.
although i say my highest kin is kagura hikari, the truth is that i actually can relate to ritsu more

he struggles with a fear of abandonment, which is something ive struggled with for a while as well. while i was at my lowest point in life, i thought i was the only person in the world who struggled with an issue like this due to still having the 'the world revolves around me'—
—sort of mentality that you breakthrough when you start to mature.
ritsu was quite literally the first exposure i had to a person who also had this kind of problem. it made me start to realize that there were other people out there who struggle with abandonment issues as well.

i wont go too much into detail about why i can relate to ritsu to save you time, so here's just a quick list of things we have in common:
-self indulgent
-clingy
-abandonment issues
-constantly tired
-piano
-friend circle is small
-seems aloof
-stoic(?)
-psychoanalysis

i also tend to be a baby around friends who i know will take care of me because im a selfish mf ♡
next is, his voice
i can't stress how thankful i am to daiki for providing ritsu with his beautiful voice ... like, SIR, YOUR RANGE
(haha get it? bcs he's daiKing??? no? okay ...
anyway i spent an unreasonable amount of time on this meme so please use it)

now onto ritsu himself because i've mostly just been reflecting on things that i find like, but what's something that everyone should find enduring about him?
i mean there's his natural beauty???
i know people like to make fun of his appearance but honestly, he has one of my favorite designs (totally not biased)
characters with ahoge's just appeal to me
his sleeping face is so cute too ...
i wish i looked that pretty while sleeping

he's also very stubborn, and stands by what he believes is right. even if he is in the wrong, he'll still put up a good fight.
he held his grudge against rei, he had faith in tsukasa during judgement, etc.

and then of course, he's reliable.
although he seems rude and uncaring at times, he really does care for others. he's very observant, and can often tell when someone's going through a rough time. he looks out for his loved ones, hoping to receive the same affection in return.

he often doesn't share his problems with others, because he is worried that he'd be bothering them.
he wants to spend time with others, but due to his sleeping schedule he's worried that he won't be able to have fun with everyone else and will sleep his life away, pretty tragic.

(that was the only picture of ritsu sleeping that i had, sorry)
i shall applaud you if you sat through all of that.
if anyone actually reads this i'll be surprised because it was mostly just for self satisfaction.
