[10DANCE] "Are you really okay with that?" — Until that outburst finally made sense
The scene where he asks, "I'm asking if you're really okay with that!"
At first glance, I didn't understand why Suzuki was so enraged.
Because the structure shifted from a flow close to the original work to an original development, it took me a while to understand.
Suzuki's side:
"I'm too clumsy to say 'look at me more'"
"What about me? Ask about me" (Watch Party / Mr. Takeuchi)
—Raw possessiveness and jealousy.
And, he simply could not forgive the fact that Sugiki, whom he cherishes so much, was being betrayed by others or treated unfairly.
Furthermore, the gesture the two made at the end of the dance with Liana, pressing their foreheads together and bringing their faces close.
For Suzuki, that was the very memory of the train ride where he and Sugiki connected.
Having that mimicked on the dance floor,
wasn't it a pain like having a happy memory painted over?
An explosion against the lie that Sugiki himself was telling.
As he says himself, Suzuki cannot forgive being deceived or betrayed above all else.
Sugiki covering up his own frustration and acting as if to deceive his own emotions.
To Suzuki, didn't that look like both a betrayal and an act of denying Sugiki himself?
Sugiki's side:
The frustration of missing out on first place was an emotion he didn't want touched upon in this situation.
He pushes it deep into his heart and pretends to be calm.
Liana's betrayal and the unfair evaluation.
And perhaps, by having Suzuki explode on his behalf, saying "I can't forgive being deceived or betrayed," regarding the frustration he had been suppressing, he felt a sense of relief.
In the dark screen, the corners of Sugiki's mouth are slightly relaxed.
The voice he uses to soothe Suzuki also has a softness, like someone comforting a child.
I think he found Suzuki's straightforwardness endearing, including the fact that he was jealous.
However, unable to withstand the gaze that seemed to pierce through his true feelings, Sugiki moves to the window.
(Here, Suzuki's eyes looking up at Sugiki-sensei are as straightforward as a puppy's. Even at the watch party, Mr. Machida said, "His eyes are sparkling.")
As a result of jealousy and anger intertwining and swelling to the limit against Sugiki, who tries to feign composure and hide his true feelings—
"I'm asking if you're really okay with that!"
And, the shattering of the glass.
In the live-action version, Suzuki's expressions of affection inevitably come out in an aggressive form.
Because he can't honestly say "I love you" or "Look at me more,"
his overflowing emotions turn into fights and provocations, crashing into Sugiki.
I moved what was on Fusetter to Note and added some revisions.
