>>15467846I think it's the only fair way to "love" when idols are concerned. It goes beyond parasocial or romantic relationship, the baseline of it doesn't assume either side owes the other something. It is like the word implies removed from "desire"; to love someone without expecting to be gratified or given something, just for who they are, is it not in a way what idol fans mean by "we'll support you not matter what"? And Kanata always emphasizes that she doesn't take her fans for granted and wants to be someone who can make their lives better, I think it is one of its sides as well. It is also in a way unconditional.
I think there's still a clip around where Kanata talks about the difference of idol love from just desire to date, so she definitely understands the subject. And it is the way she establishes this even ground with you where she knows that you know that she knows what is expected of her is pretty rare. As
>>15473353 mentioned she knows exactly why she's here for you and feels committed to it.
