Bad Girl Ep.9-12 - Suzu is the best heroine! What an ending! Yuri!
Episodes 9–12 of Bad Girl complete the first season of this anime in an exceptional way, delivering a bit of screen time for all the heroines while keeping the focus on the ones at the center of this yuri romantic triangle: Mizutori Atori, Suzukaze Suzu, and Yuutani Yuu.
As you know, I'm a huge fan of Suzu to the point that I literally have hundreds of screenshots of her in my folder from just 12 episodes; she's just a perfect heroine. At the same time, I found myself liking Kiyoraka Sumiki more and more, but for completely different reasons.


Of course, she's absolutely adorable with her fear of lightning, which gives an adorable gap to her personality, but Kiyoraka also feels like me when watching Yuu and Suzu: that feeling of trying to match them up, along with the playful teasing of the girls around her.
Again, I don't really see the reason for Yuu's devotion to Atori, but I guess it needed to be absolute for the entire premise to work out. Atori is a nice character, and I've loved the cat and dog relationship with Suzu. Atori wants affection from Suzu too, but Suzu's feelings are one-sided toward Yuu, so...


The post-credits scene with Suzu and Yuu spending an afternoon together was the most beautiful thing because it shows how Suzu is an integral part of Yuu's life and that she doesn't want to lose her. Another nice moment was when Suzu felt abandoned at the idea of Yuu leaving again, only for Yuu to nonchalantly say she'd go anywhere to be together with Suzu.
I don't think Yuu really realizes what Suzu feels for her yet, but I really hope that by the end of the manga we can see the two going out together. Suzu's long devotion has to get a good ending, or it would be way too sad. Or maybe a 3P in which the three girls get together? I wouldn't mind it, you know?!


I'm absolutely going to start reading the manga soon, and I hope to reach a point where I can make posts about the content that comes after what was adapted in the anime. I'm just way too invested in these characters to stop now; I want to know more about what's going to happen to Yuu and Suzu.
