@AoiBet Ahh, well actually... this is gonna sound super simple, but you know when you're in the middle of a ride to school, to work, to home, etc? My brain runs certain scenarios in my head which I end up noting down and developing on. That's how this whole Spiritual Kinship thing started. I was on my way to school when I suddenly passed by a church which is common here in the Philippines. From there, since I was thinking of writing a story for Date a Live, I suddenly got an idea for a character. The premise in the beginning was Mio (The Holy Spirit), and Shinji (The father), Shidou (The second coming) and the OC. (The Son.) It all revolved around a holy Trinity. Three people that share the same connection. (Shinji, Shidou, and Syouji.) Notice how their names all have 6 letters. And how if you somehow fuse Shidou and Syouji's names, it would end up like Shi-Ji. They're like, Shinji but not quite. And at this point we're getting so close to spoiler territory lol. But, the point is Syouji was supposed to be the son of the first Spirit that would end up causing a Ragnarok. And with his connection with Mio, Shidou and Shinji, they end up sharing a "Spiritual Kinship". A familial bond that connects them spiritually. Hence the title. I know, I'm amazing right? I am right? Sugoi naming sense. Anyway, from there I just let Syouji act on his own. Think from his view, how this character would react and deal with situations. I mean, for example you already know this will happen, but what if Kurumi died in front of him? By the hands of his own mother even? While he's under immense mental stress? Oooohhhh that's too exciting. Well, yeah okay, so maybe it wasn't really that simple Lmaooo
