Does anyone have the raws? Or knows where to find them?
You dont seriously think that she just Kissed her, right? The scene totally looked like rape.
Natsuki overhears a rant from a homophobe and assumes something happened which didn't. There's a reason why that "flashback" has a unique style, only appears when Natsuki hears Yukino talking despite her remembering the kiss, and is coupled with an unreliable visual style which has a demonstrably false representation of the scene (as we, the viewer, already saw it from an omniscient 3rd person perspective, and it contradicts Natsuki's "memory").
It's incredibly clear that it was her imagining the worst based upon overhearing a homophobic rant; the show does everything in its power to tell you that. Go watch the scene again, and pay attention to it this time.
Honestly. I have no idea where this debate even came from, given how ham-fisted the whole "THIS IS A FAKE IMAGINATION" thing is. Ohara really didn't want any ambiguity there, and there wasn't any, and yet the debate continues on anyway.
I think people are just so used to having sexual assault in fiction that, when a narrative arc subverts that trend, they assume it's playing it straight instead. There was also the confusion about Natsuki's sexuality, despite her kissing Shizuru and saying she loves her, and Mai referencing them dating in the end of the final episode. Absolutely bizarre.
