Same, but I can think of a few reasons. I think part of the reason is that I can't for the life of me understand why a hotel chain owner and family would be treated and revered like they're royalty. They even have body guards as if their job makes them a target. That part seeps through the entire thing and it just doesn't make sense to me.
And then they do this vague thing where the dad puts some vague, barely explained conditions on where Kojo goes to school.
It's also a bit like "oh look how tough being rich as fuck is".
I completely forgot that this is the context of her family. I guess my brain was filling this in like they were some important political figure or something.
Your comment was helpful to help me figure out a bit of why I think this arc has been unsatisfying to me. I don't disagree with what you said. I think the other part of this that is frustrating to me is how much potential Kujo's character had with her shojo brain. We got to see just a bit of the silliness that could result from her attempted interventions before the sports festival came. Instead now, she is wrapped up in this very contrived drama and it feels like her character was squandered.
Yeah, they are treating them as such, so that makes sense.
Agreed
