Having her press against me, I wrap my arm around her and pull her closer, enjoying the sensation as I idly watch the anime, only half paying attention. At her comment my attention shifts fully to the anime before answer, "Ah... That's the 'tsundere'. She's lying about her feelings is the reason for that bullshit. In her case it's her pride as the daughter of nobility not letting her put herself on the same level as those on common blood, such as the main character."
Honestly, while tsunderes really annoy me, this one is pretty good despite the first impression. After the main character gets his title, which in turn kicks off his role in the following archs, she warms up to him a lot as she can justify treating him like an equal, leaving behind the angry bitch mode for cute flustered mode. Honestly the change caused a minor flame war in the fanbase from the tsun diehards, and the anti-tsun who loved the change, me included. It's not that she didn't have her moments, though most of her 'tsun' moments later on is when the MC teases her, but all in all she becomes one of the most innocent members, second only to the 'pure' archetypal character. At that I pause for moment as I remember how my own wife acted when I first met her, and how she acted now, "Wait, didn't you act like her when we first met?"
Random person in the comments section of a random hentai manga- "Now I am ashamed of myself."
Me- "Posh, shame is for fools and people with friends... we need no such things, we have the internet."
