(And let’s be real here: Lupin is so damn fine whenever he does it!) Nevertheless, whenever she was in trouble, Lupin would sweep in like a knight in shiny amour and make my heart flutter. Luckily, by Chapter 12, badass Cardia who isn’t going to wait to be saved finally made a comeback. However despite that, I still think there were times Cardia could have acted tougher than she had. Since this is the true route that ties everything together, and since Isaac’s plan is set in motion, it made sense for Cardia to be in this position. This had to do with how her story was set up. This time round, her character didn’t appeal to me as much as it had in other routes. Mood: asdjahdjahsdakĬardia on the other hand, was a bit of a different story. Lupin and Van are the BROTP I didn’t know I needed. Actually, what I loved the most during that event was seeing Van check up on him. We also got to see his moments of weakness, where we see his past regrets of being unable to save his mentor come back to haunt him when he lost Cardia to Finis. One of my favourite things he did was he sweetly teased Cardia, subtle giving her hints about his feelings towards her. I also consider his confession to be the most heartfelt of the entire group. It was those qualities about him that finally made me fall for him. He is affectionate, kind, understanding but most of all, an earnest man. It wasn’t until then when they learned they were in fact on the same page.īut once we started to see more of Lupin outside of his Thief of Justice role, I found him to be a surprisingly grounded character. In fact, to me, it’s Cardia who seems to have fallen in love first, but because it’s a foreign feeling to her, she didn’t know how to express it until Lupin explained it to her when he confessed to her. While yes, he certainly flirted and teased Cardia from the get go, for the longest time, I struggled to pin-point the exact moment I felt, “Ah, he has finally fallen for her”. But when he finally grew on me, it was certainly worth the wait.Īnother part that probably contributed to my lack of interested how Lupin is one of those characters who can be tricky to read, especially when it comes down to their feelings. Beyond being a dazzling gentleman that made me swoon every time he sweeps Cardia off her feet, there was nothing about him that made me eager to learn more about him. Unlike Van and Saint-Germain, Lupin isn’t exactly the type of character that grabs my attention right from the start. Yes, Lupin was betrayed by his mentor who he perceived as a father figure, and was unable to save him from his own demise, but at least it wasn’t a full blown tragedy like some of the others.īut as much as I adore Lupin, you might be surprised to hear it actually took me a while to fall for him. It was also nice to have for once, a backstory that wasn’t doom and gloom. Lupin didn’t care for burning his hand briefly during the time it did, because he wanted to grant her wish of letting her truly experience the touch of warmth, and a kiss since he didn’t know if they were going to survive or not. Her poison wasn’t all the way down to zero, but it didn’t take long for the last of it to be burned off. Lupin took a huge gamble, but the guy has proven the odds tend to be in his favour and was able to successfully exploit Isaac’s method by removing Cardia just so that she had enough energy left in her to survive. When they had their first kiss, oh goodness, I almost cried because I felt that, it was such an emotional moment. I especially loved all of their CGs, the little kisses here and there, and just seeing Lupin hold Cardia, and a wedding to boot makes me all fuzzy inside. For most part, almost every time he and Cardia interacted with each other, I couldn’t help but smile. Lupin’s route was definitely the fluffier one of the bunch. First Impression: Well, you can steal my heart any day.
