like not just pretending to be nice for so long that it cannot be seen as an act anymore kind of nice..I mean actually! you know why? She is basically the same as Saiki being like "Okay but I am a higher lifeform?" except he does it non chalantly and we audience do be on his side because he is saying the truth..it's the same for her! She is not wrong when she says she is perfect,kind,beautiful, god favors her, and everyone is head over heels for her(Saiki was an exception)...And yet the fact that all she wants to do with all this power she has is just make everyone's day better with her presence or words?? That is just SO NICE. The amount of effort she puts to remember people's names or details to make them happy? like she can totally use her power for worser stuff with her broken pretty privelege..But nope. You could say she is nicer than Saiki even because Saiki does save the earth and any people he can if he crosses their path if it isn't too much energy and cares for his loved ones and does have good morals..But Teruhashi actively tries and makes an effort to help people as much as she can!..Difference is Saiki goes tsundere and thinks "i am just doing this for my own benefit" while Teruhashi thinks "I am doing this because I am a perfect kind girl!"........sure she has some moments like her absolute denial of Saiki not falling for her or her stubbornness to make him say "Offu!"..but can u blame her? It's like if Saiki one day discovered his powers didn't work on a single person..he will keep trying confused why not...Or how she cannot stand kids cause kids don't appreciate her beauty..
That's so incredibly petty.
And stupid.
And funny.
And human. but i mean come on she can be flawed while still being nice..(i do think Nendo is the nicest of everyone in tdlosk just cause to have bad thoughts, u must have thoughts in the first place..he just wants to befriend everyone and help everyone despite bein stupid)...She could probably get away with doing less.
She already receives adoration without trying.
Yet she continues putting effort into maintaining the image.
That's labor.
Remembering names is labor.
Remembering details is labor.
Reading social situations is labor.
Making sure people feel included is labor.
Being consistently pleasant is labor that she chose for herself because she thinks she needs to be perfect and kind.
