My heart sank when I heard the news. Stupid Hankyu and its stupid "40 years old" rule preventing Yumiko from making top. Stupid company for not maneuvering people differently in order to allow her to become top.
I mean, if Yumiko had been transferred in to lead Soragumi I probably would have been just as bitter. But regardless, I think it's lame that Yuuhi got that honor that Yumiko didn't.
And I think it's SUPER lame that Chie made top but Yumiko won't.
It's not that I don't think Chie or Kimu should be tops. They're talented and I like both of them. I just think they could have been held in reserve longer.
Goddammit, so frustrated but also so close to deleting half of what I just wrote. I'm worried about becoming one of those people who can't give up the fandom but is too jaded to be pleasant about anything.
No. I won't be that person. Must focus on the sources of happy among the lower ranks, since the treatment of people near the top only makes me ache lately.
