Shut up.

I don't think people livestream Nintendo 3DS without equipment and expensive/obnoxious jury rigging, so, screw that, even if I wanted to. I will update this post throughout playing on my commentary etc.

Hana keeps forgetting to address Sakura formally, since she didn't do it when they were growing up, but now that she's a retainer, of course she's supposed to!! Only Sakura liked it back in the old days. Hana would sneak into training with the soldiers and then come back battered and bruised so Sakura had to heal her. And this one time Hana lost Sakura in the mountains because she was so focused on her training.

She feels pretty bad about all that now, but Sakura says that as an introvert, she appreciated the way Hana got her to go places and do things she might not have ordinarily done.

SAKURA: Don't ever change, Hana!
HANA: ...wait, are you saying I haven't changed from that inconsiderate behavior? That's rude, Sakura!!

Adorable, 5/5, cute girls being cute, bffs forever

Hana is feeling bad about their childhood again, because she wasn't the best friend anyone's ever had, wasn't even really interested in the same things Sakura was interested in.

But she felt like, if she was working to protect someone as noble as Sakura, that she could become "a samurai just as great -- no, greater -- than my father was." Aww, daddy issues. Hana says that she already knew she wanted to be a samurai like him, but Sakura gave her a clear objective.

After a beat, Sakura says that when she was asked to choose a retainer, she picked Hana right away, even though others objected because of her youth and girl parts. But Sakura insisted on Hana, and eventually they let her.

"Why did you fight for me so hard?" Hana asks, and Sakura remembers something she has to do elsewhere right now, bye Hana

5/5, Sakura you know how shippy that fleeing looks, don't you?

Sakura apologizes for the fleeing back in support B. It has been killing Hana not knowing why Sakura chose her, and so Sakura finally admits that she knew she could trust Hana, because when they were younger there were many times that Hana got hurt for her, even though she had no obligation to do so. She's even got the scars to show for it.

Hana: so basically you ran because you felt bad I got hurt?
Sakura: uh, yes?
Hana: oh good. man, I was worried it was something important!

Hana is not even slightly self-conscious about the scars in question, so, whatever. They avow their eternal bffship. Cute, unconvincingly platonic. 4/5 or something
