Some people say Mika's actions in V3C4 were annoying, that her blaming the Squad for everything bad happened to her was unreasonable. But ain't the fact judging from Mika's limited pov as a character? Saori did trick her, took advantage of her goodwill, almost killed her friends & Sensei, manipulated her and threw her away the moment she was no longer of use to the Squad. Even if most of those were Beatrice's orders, Saori was still the one carried them out, and Mika didn't know that at first. Thus, in Mika's pov, Saori was the source of her agonies. And yet, Mika never denied her responsibility for the terrible things she did, if not burdened herself with a bunch more. She never said she was innocent in the whole ordeal. If anything, she found herself to be equally guilty as Saori, so she wanted Saori to face the same judgement & sufferings, simple as that.
Mika is far from perfect, but she has a good heart. She was the only one in the Tea Party to ever propose making peace with Arius out of pure kindness with no ulterior motives. She came to Saori proposing peace & reconciliation with basically nothing in return, and they almost reached it if it hadn't been for Beatrice. Some claimed she did that just to later wage war against Gehenna, but that clearly wasn't true. As Saori said, Mika came to her talking all about peace. Never once did she mention a word about Gehenna when it all started. And what did she receive after all that goodwill & genuine wish for reconciliation? Arius ruined her life forever. Her loved ones were almost killed, her position stripped, her reputation tainted, her belongings burned, her privileges abdicated. She was by no means innocent since much of her mistakes originated from her own doings, but the one started it all was inarguably the Squad.
Yet, the moment Mika understood the Squad's situation, she sympathized with them, forgave them for everything they did to her and even prayed for their salvation rather than her own. Imagine being able to not just forgive but sympathize and pray for the people who effectively ruined your life permanently even though you never did anything bad to them, never discriminated them based on ageold prejudices, never wished to exploit them, and the only thing you want is to befriend & help them. Do you have the courage to do the same as Mika if such things ever happened to you?
Beautiful video, H. Very beautiful.
A 16 minutes long video with (currently) 70 views made by a middling youtuber by subscriber count talking about a character in a game I have personally liked was definetly something of my interest.
Also Misono Mika is my wife, don't take her from me. I could fix her alone.
Mika is best girl
The first time I hear sing in eden treaty episode, it give me goosebump.
Seeing Mika just reminding me of my past self, young and made too many mistake that I can't forget, but she has a chance to grow and change.
That's why I love her.
