Anata ni Sasageru Akai Bara - Ch. 6

So... many plot holes. lol
But it looks like she's always carried an inferiority complex towards Diana one that made her believe that Orpheus really doesn't love her. Tbh, I'm also not convinced he doesn't ambiguously love Diana. They're too sweet. And again, Ophelia pointed out that Orpheus doesn't smile with his eyes when they're together but he does with Diana. I think that detail is so important.
 
So, I see all of this through the lens of someone recovering from lifelong trauma and abuse. I think we have to keep that in mind and not trust what we're told/shown - it's entirely possible that we're not getting the full story. Eventually, what I want most from this to see her come to love herself rather than end up with Orpheus, although that of course would be sweet.

And Zephyr nailed it on the head - FR THO, I was like "no! wrong words to use!!! bad Orpheus!!" I don't think he's absolute trash/coward - I tend to err on the side of "he's just that emotionally dense" - but yeah, wrong move there.
 
can we all keep in mind that ophelia grew up in a very abusive environment and that WILL HAVE an effect on her perception and action
 
I just thought that the art looks a lot to "Seirei no moribito"... Not the Manga but the anime 😅
