I think unlike Humbert Humbert? or whatever his name was, she's not okay with it. I also think yuzumori-san will start thinking of her as increasingly weird. She might even start avoiding Yuzumori-san. It may turn out like Kodomo no Jikan - where she waits patiently for her to turn - I suspect 16 - and then pounces.
Oh, yes. Mimika has to be the polar opposite of him: perfectly earnest and uncomplicated (to the point of being a little dense). Humbert knows very well what he's doing in both his interactions with Lolita and his deception of the audience. Meanwhile, Mimika doesn't have a damn clue what to do with herself ever.
Another point of contrast I found interesting: Yuzumori very much has her own character here, as opposed to Lolita who only existed as the dehumanized object of Humbert's desire. I feel like the relationship will continue in this story, and a big part of making the narrative work will be developing Yuzumori's character around Mimika.
