>>23475130I kinda feel what you're feeling, sort of. Super Valerie fan, and even here it felt...oppressive? Ash is being very hostile for some reason to her, I don't get it. Is he scared? Mad? Usually when he's excited and tense, he has a slasher smile going.
I hope subs help this problem.
Things could really have been helped along/made spookier if at the very end, Valerie was touching a photo of Ash or something and whispering "Satoshi, huh..."
It's weird, it's like they were desperate to play down any interaction between Ash and Valerie. The Furisode lingered on him for a bit but chose Shota. Even during their connection scene. But the music and scenery playing was interesting.
