also tomosaki is sparrow/canary and uisaki is canary4canary. but uisaki is more about going out and building your own cage together.

I have constructed my theory
Discord message that says "Proposing a hypothesis of yuri archetypes. Rather than representing contrasting personalities or aesthetics (tsundere/genki, plain girl/gyaru, etc.), this is an archetype embedded in the very nature of the narrative itself, and often central to it. I'll refer to it as **Caged Bird GL**." Continued: "Within this archetype, you have two characters: the **sparrow** and the **canary**. The general flow is that the sparrow, more often the POV character or protagonist, is an outsider who stumbles upon the canary confined within a metaphorical cage. Said cage is some form of systemic oppression--misogyny, homophobia, classism, capitalism, parental control, or some other superstructure--expressed through an entity or locale that has shaped the canary's life and personality into what it currently is. The sparrow, as an outsider, is often more rough or masculine, if not outright butch, compared to the more femme and demure canary. The main thing that separates the two, however, is agency: the sparrow is used to fending for itself, while the canary has been conditioned to be a passive accepter of its fate. The sparrow is feisty, but ultimately not almighty: it cannot break the cage on its own, nor easily defeat any larger birds that may inhabit the narrative. But its courage and spirit display a sense of Freedom that the canary is unused to, while the canary's struggle may illuminate the previously naive sparrow as to the true nature of the world or of suffering." Continued: "The narrative centers around the sparrow--through kindness, empowerment, and love--"opening" the cage for the canary and giving it a chance to fly free. What the canary does with that open cage varies. She may learn to live unshackled by the system she was raised under. The sparrow may stubbornly try to pull her out, creating conflict. She may poke her head out and shrivel back in. The canary may feel pressured by other birds in the cage, and the sparrow may come to realize its demands are selfish. In fact, rarely is the exact nature of the outcome the same: it may end in tragedy, bittersweetness, or a purely happy ending. Where this differs from more normative m/f romances is that the sparrow rarely (if ever) directly rescues the canary as if they are subject and object; rather, the sparrow's actions encourage the canary to self-actualize and use her wings herself." Continued: "For an example, I'll use a work we're all familiar with: Revue Starlight. Karen is the Sparrow and Hikari is the Canary. What constrains Hikari (and everybody else, to some degree) is the system of the Top Star, that dictates only a single girl can prosper under fame and recognition (a reflection of the real life Top Star system used by the Takarazuka Revue). Karen's opening of the 'cage' is in showing Hikari the viability of both of them being co-stars: an opening that Hikari cowers from by (literally) pushing Karen away and attempting to sacrifice herself so she doesn't steal her brilliance. Karen is undeterred, of course, and the two end up fighting, but appear to dismantle the cage, averting tragedy and staying together. Then comes the movie, where it's apparent that, all along, the sparrow, too, was in the cage, and that cage is larger and more enticing than they could possibly imagine--yet at the same time, both Karen and Hikari move onward of their own volition, having completed their Revue Starlight. This can be a somewhat reductive framework in this instance and others (as it's primarily focused on relating the characters to a system of control rather than in their personalities and aspirations, which can vary wildly), but I believe it has use value."

the combo-punch of makio reading a little of minori’s journal for asa and ending up doubled over in acute emotional pain only for asa just a bit later to get on her case for being messy in a way so horribly reminiscent of her mother should be studied as a war crime

might be overshadowed a little by emiri being a baby lesbian and makio being a horny mess but the stuff with makio and minori and asa in the first half of today’s ikoku nikki was like. Fuck, man. hoo!
