• Comments: This video is my apology to Akito. I don't really like Akito, but thanks to the ending, I can't hate him either. Tohru sort of does that to you. I have to respect all the pressure that he's under.
  
  Hence the video.
  
  Should be pretty self-explanatory, but I'll ramble anyway.
  
  Supposed to be Akito singing the song. Accusing Tohru. The anime sets it up so that Tohru and he are opposing forces, and boy are they.
  First bits him vs. her for Yuki.
  Third bits him vs. her for Hiro. They both figure Kisa's the key. Like he doesn't make it obvious.
  Last bit - him vs. her for him. Guess who wins?
  
  I skipped over the second bit. It's got Kyou and Hatori - but it's really about Shigure. In the manga it's more clear than the anime that he's manipulating things behind the scenes. And I don't think he does a very good job. I love Shigure to death, and I wanted to show, even in a patch-work 1/3 of a video, the complexity of his character.
  Wonder if I succeeded even a little bit.
  
  Ciao.
