>>4589488I love Mori, but it's pretty obvious why she's the way she is. Your boy is quite literally on the spectrum. I think the recent Ultimate Chicken Horse collab had one of the worst Mori moments ever, I got second-hand embarrassment.
>Watame complimented Mori's nihongo and made a guess that she's been learning for 6 months>Watame's utter shock when Mori said she was in Japan for 5 years and learning>Kiara had to salvage the conversation and made excuses on Mori's behalf while Iofi quietly loses her shit>Watame then began to purposely lower her Japanese to N5 levels and Mori was still misunderstanding herMori is the ultimate example of the axiom: practice doesn't make perfect, GOOD practice makes perfect. She literally always does things the wrong way and stubbornly smashes her head against the wall and very rarely gain any understanding from the mistakes she makes. Contrast her with say, Ame, who is a very stubborn individual but does eventually have things click and has unironically done more in her JP collabs as someone with no Japanese ability whatsoever than Mori has. Mori might as well be the poster child of the average expat in Japan who usually goes there for an incredibly specific reason and then languishes there, unhappy and unwilling to actually assimilate or fit in or even go out of their comfort zone because they had a specific ideal of Japan in mind and it didn't turn out the way they intended but now they're stuck there.
