Completely spot on analysis, do not mind the grammar. Airi is the type of person who prides themselves on their appearance and social standing. A bit narcissistic yeah, but nothing completely immoral. However she is, by nature, a VERY sadistic person. So much so she would be willing to risk everything that matters to her for that rush of adrenaline she gets while abusing Hina.
The more I think about it, the more I realize Airi NEVER loved Hina, not even a little bit. She just loved the way Hina would make her feel, bending over backwards at her every wish. Airi loved Hina the way an owner would love their puppy, (a very narcissistic owner at that) it was always more of an “appreciation” rather than “infatuation”, an appreciation for bringing some entertainment to her dull life.
Even now, it’s like you said, she has been completely groomed into believing sex with Hina is good, she hated it in the beginning, Chapter 17. That shit was traumatizing.
One thing I will disagree on is how Hina never loved Airi. She does, she always has, true love. 3 years, going strong.
I’m sure even someone like Hina wouldn’t want a complete love slave. So far she seems pretty concerned with Airi’s mental health. She’s finally starting to realize that her actions have consequences. Telling Airi that everyone was talking about her when in reality nobody was because she thought her reaction would be “cute” was probably something she didn’t really think through. She never thought about how deeply traumatizing that would be to her and only now will she begin to realize that.
Im expecting to see a huge revelation in these next few chapters, something that will completely throw us off track.
