It's time for another blog post! For today's blog post, I will once again be talking about Doctor Shuu Iwamine from Hatoful Boyfriend. But first, there will be spoilers ahead! So proceed with caution! Now, I know I've talked about him a few times already on here, but I find his psychology to be pretty fascinating. He almost only cares about his research, and he doesn't care at all who knows. But he's considered to be so odd that nobody ever really takes him seriously. He doesn't understand those he talks to much at all, but he's so fixated on his research that he doesn't mind. He doesn't try to fit in, but he somehow still functions perfectly fine in society. This is most likely because of others who helped him get to where he is, but I'm sure he could do well on his own. He also has no remorse for what he does, since nothing is wasted if it's used for research. But, this isn't because he doesn't feel anything. Firstly, he does get along with people well when he interacts with them; as we see in the drama CDs. He does seem a bit off and uncaring, but he's usually very interested in what goes on around him. Along with this, he is the one who volunteered to take care of Miru and Kaku. He doesn't really care for them, but he takes care of them as well as he can because of Ryuuji. It's true that in his route he says he only feels anything for Hiyoko because of the mere exposure effect, but there's a chance this is just how he explains it away for himself. After all, he does mention liking her before the end of the route even happens. Although he does dismiss the Legumentine's beans, it's because of the beans themselves and not because of who gave them to him. He's just so fascinated by small and seemingly meaningless things that he often forgets to care about anything else. He's such a complex person, even though at first he just seems like a stereotypical mad doctor. But, those are mostly just my thoughts on this topic. I just wanted to talk about this because I find him so fascinating as a person. Nonetheless, I hope everybirdie still liked this blog post! As a little bonus, here's a picture of Shuu with Miru and Kaku! Enjoy!
