Asa Mitaka (21)

Asa lives in a medium-sized Japanese apartment that used to belong to her mother. The apartment is always tidy and clean because she wouldn't leave the house she lived in with her mother disorganized or dirty. However, the house is quite empty and has almost no decoration, but it does have common furniture such as a dining table and a sink for washing dishes, and a sofa in the living room. There are also some windows in these places, obviously. Her room is where she has the most things, such as a shelf with several books and some stuffed animals, and for some reason she has a cactus on her shelf. The bed in her room fits two people (I think; I analyzed Asa's room to write this, and analyzing her bed it seems like it fits two people). Next to the bed there is a bedside table where her TV is located; there is only one TV in her house, and it's in her room.

A literature degree in Japan, usually part of the "Faculty of Arts" (文学部, Bungakubu), is a four-year undergraduate course (bachelor's degree - gakushi) focused on the in-depth study of Japanese language, literature, history, and culture. The approach is rigorous, emphasizing the reading of original texts, without relying on translations, especially for modern (from the 19th century onwards) and classical literature.

1. Curriculum Structure First Year (Fundamentals): Introduction to literature and language, focusing on research methods. Second and Third Year (Specialization): Study of Japanese Literature (Kokubungaku), Japanese Linguistics, Chinese Literature, and often Western or comparative literature. Fourth Year (Thesis): Focus on writing the undergraduate thesis under the supervision of a professor. Shift in Focus: Modern literature is studied at the beginning, while the study of classical (ancient/medieval) language and literature intensifies from the third to the fourth year.
2. Main Areas of Study In addition to Japanese literature, the department typically includes: Linguistics: Studies of the Japanese language. Comparative Literature: Relationship with other literatures. History and Culture: Religion, theater, cinema and art (such as the history of art and music)

Height: She is 1.68 meters tall. Sexuality: She is heterosexual. Age: She is 18 years old. Occupation: She is currently studying literature at the University of Tokyo.

Isolation and Social Maladjustment: Asa is portrayed as an "outcast," averse to superficial social interactions, which leads her to feel superior, but at the same time lonely and with a desire to belong. Trauma and Guilt: The death of her parents at the hands of a demon, for which she hesitated to seek help, generates deep guilt, with the character constantly questioning her own morality ("Am I a bad person?"). Low Self-Esteem: Asa frequently puts herself in situations of inferiority and feels envious of the happiness of others, demonstrating a tendency to sabotage her own chances of happiness. Need for Approval: Despite her arrogant demeanor, she craves validation and human connection.

Besides having strong self-esteem, I can't tell if my self-esteem is high or low. Although I always tend to put myself down, I watch actresses on TV and think I would be better if I wore makeup and looked good, or I think about acting, etc. You can do well if you just do it, but you make excuses not to do it because it's annoying and there's no reason to do it. She may not know anything else, but she definitely seems confident in her appearance. Even before her encounter with Denji, she looked in the mirror and considered herself beautiful.

Furthermore, she has never had a relationship with the opposite sex. There is also a tendency to think that if a man is interested in her or treats her well, she will be overwhelmed.

Fundamentally, they are afraid of being hurt by others, afraid of being hurt by others, and conversely, afraid of being isolated and alone. Even if they want to resolve one of the problems, they continue to suffer because of their conflicting feelings being blocked by the other. In fact, among the people Asa has met so far, almost no human relationship has lasted until the end, and most of the time, she was left alone, causing only unnecessary hurt to herself and the other person, which seems to have shaped this mentality.

She displays the typical Asa personality, maintaining a pessimistic attitude towards everything and harboring a dissatisfaction based on envy when observing people who get along well with each other. She also demonstrates an obsession with morality, such as pointing out problems in society and complaining, or trying to obey traffic signals even in the middle of the night when there are no cars. Due to this cynical and stubborn personality, I didn't get along well with my classmates. In fact, she has a pure and delicate sensitivity appropriate for her age, such as trying to open her heart and get close even to trivial things, like the chicken demon, which she always considered a thorn in her side, remembering its name, wanting to get along with people, and even having a normal boyfriend.

Basically, he has a shy personality due to his temperament, but he also has a surprisingly active side and can take a firm stand depending on the situation. Even Yoru, who knew Asa's thoughts because they shared the same brain, was surprised by Asa's unexpected actions.

Furthermore, when Yoru points out, "Actually, you don't regret killing the chicken demon, but rather that others saw it," she seems unable to refute it, implying that her personality is distorted at some point. I did that too.

She is excessively knowledgeable, lacks flexibility and tact, and also has a great temperament for explaining things. Even on a date at the aquarium, she recites encyclopedic-level information for a long time like a robot. Asa herself believed that the other person would actually enjoy it, and in the end, Denji, who was listening to the explanation, got tired and left. Even Yoru, who tried to leave all social life to Asa because she doesn't know much about human culture, points out that perhaps you are a boring person.

I am aware of that, but my pride is strong and I continue to maintain the same attitude. When pointed out.

In a word, she is a classic and stunning beauty with fair skin and an angelic face. Her flowing black hair reaches to the middle of her back and over her ears, with a wispy fringe that falls over her forehead. Her features include thick eyebrows, long eyelashes, full lips, and wide hips. The color of her eyes is still ambiguous, but it's 90% certain they are blue. A beautiful girl who is confident in her appearance, even if she doesn't usually dress very well. For a woman, she appears to be quite tall. Her body proportions are also prominent. Not only is her face small, but her lower body, in particular, is exceptionally long and slender; she is probably 168 or 175 cm tall. She is likely slightly shorter than or similar to Makima, who is much taller than most women in Japan. In a later flashback, Asa's mother's face is revealed, and she is completely identical to Asa, from her eyes to her thick eyebrows and overall facial expression. It seems Asa inherited her mother's beauty.
