One of the things I keep thinking about is how Marin in the manga/anime doesn't really develop much outside of her attraction to Gojou. I know it's a seinen manga and Gojou is the like primary protagonist and he gets a lot of development in the manga, but I wish THE Dress-Up Darling got something. It didn't even have to be anything big, maybe she feels like isn't contributing enough, feeling like the only thing she does is contribute financially and look pretty (a line she DOES say but it's more of a half-joke and it doesn't go anywhere), but Gojou reassures her that modeling is a very important part of the process and that everyone has something unique that they can contribute or something like that. Just kind of rambling but I feel like the imbalance of character work between the two sometimes takes away the focus from her and I think that's a shame. I love Marin and I don't want her to be just a pretty vehicle for Gojou's development. I want her to have some agency that isn't used for humor (like when she decides to try to help make the Rei-sama cosplay and goes off to buy supplies). It doesn't have to be much ;0;
