>>Nono doesn’t really change much in the series. She is someone who is trying to be Nonoriri(ko) and when she gets super charged she basically has already been finished as a character. She doesn’t go through much of a real arc.

I found the construction of Nono’s character pretty unsatisfying. To me, her greatest value is to elevate Noriko, to articulate the feelings I have for that character in ways not available to myself.

For this, I appreciate Nono, and am thankful.
