Hello folks, and welcome back to Wrong Every Time. Today I am eager to return to Cafe Liebe, and see how things are faring for our hapless kohai Hime. After being conscripted into service as a replacement for her manager Mai, Hime swiftly managed to trip over or smash into basically every convention of their fictional girls\u2019 academy. Though she has some vague understanding of the genre territory being explored, the lingo is still foreign to her; she has mastered a precise script of feigned modern-day courtliness, but her affectation bears only a passing resemblance to the assumed calls and responses of Liebe Girls\u2019 Academy.<\/span><\/p>\n

Of course, that precise formality of assumed language is exactly why Liebe\u2019s customers find this performance so enticing. Hime is talented at improvising in the manner of a genuine social butterfly, but the genre-born assumptions of Liebe flatter a very different audience, comforting those who, like Kanoko, find the vagaries of spontaneous conversation foreign and intimidating. Scripts provided by fiction allow those who have difficulty expressing themselves organically to connect with others; when the rules are so clearly defined, there is little fear of putting your foot in your mouth. And of course, it\u2019s not like organic conversations <\/span>don\u2019t<\/span><\/i> follow their own unspoken scripts, as Hime\u2019s initial talents well demonstrate. All human interactions are in part a performance of selfhood, and through Cafe Liebe, Yuri is My Job! is consistently demonstrating the differences and nuances of performing for yourself, for the sake of being understood, and for the approval of an assumed audience. Let\u2019s see how Hime fucks it up this time!<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/p>\n

Episode 3<\/b><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

\u201cWhat Should I Believe?\u201d An excellent episode title for this show; these performances might facilitate a certain common understanding, but they also always introduce the question of what is <\/span>just<\/span><\/i> performance, and what is earnest sentiment. Softening language through genre ritual can make it easier to voice your feelings, but that\u2019s partially because you\u2019re blurring your intent rather than declaring it clearly<\/span><\/p>\n

Interesting color design conceit throughout this OP, where their \u201cbackstage\u201d lives are presented as shadowed and cold, less vibrant than their performances<\/span><\/p>\n

Given that conceit, the OP seems to be implying that Sumika\u2019s off-stage fondness for Kanoko will bleed into their performed relationship<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

We open with another standard day at Cafe Liebe, as Hime continues to struggle in writing down orders<\/span><\/p>\n

Excellent squeaking noise from Hime as her failures are discovered by Mitsuki<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cI taught you the shorthand for the menu already. When will you learn!?\u201d Outside of the dramatically heightened confines of the cafe itself, Mitsuki\u2019s condemnations parse entirely as scorn, not the sort of \u201coh you\u201d love language of Liebe Girls\u2019 Academy. Language is relative, contextual<\/span><\/p>\n

Of course, \u201cantagonism as affection\u201d is a trope with a long history across many mediums and genres, and the assumption of that standard frequently excuses old-fashioned bullying. Ceding our perspectives on human interaction to media cliches can easily have a deleterious effect on our real-world relationships<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Back at school, Hime gracefully turns down another offer to join a school club, ending on a flattering \u201cthanks for considering me\u201d that ensures her rejection actually earns her more points<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cThis! This is how it should be for me!\u201d Hime basks in her mastery of high school\u2019s performance expectations. Given her confidence here and lack of fluency with Liebe\u2019s script, I imagine she\u2019ll eventually fall somewhere in the middle, coming to actively seek sincere common understanding with others, rather than this worshipful distance<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cWhat\u2019s her problem, anyway?\u201d Hime obviously doesn\u2019t actually care at this point, but I\u2019m curious myself as to why Mitsuki has come to value these performances so highly. Presumably mastering this script was her response to being socially rejected, just as Hime chose to master the script of modern high school stardom. We all want to be loved, and we will embrace the standards of whatever community offers that love<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Modern fan culture has taken that natural instinct in a frustratingly tribalistic direction, frequently conditioning adherents to no longer possess a common understanding with non-fans, and thus fostering an \u201cus versus them\u201d dynamic that you see in things like the urge to \u201cgatekeep\u201d videogames or anime. It\u2019s essentially the same way religions will intentionally provoke violent responses from outsiders through alleged outreach efforts, thus ensuring those within the tribe see all outsiders as enemies<\/span><\/p>\n

Hime has figured out a way to manage orders: explicitly request customers speak slowly, turning her ineptitude into part of the performance. Very clever<\/span><\/p>\n

But she\u2019s still making this too much about the audience worshiping her specifically, rather than believing in their collective performance. Too much ego in her affectation, and too much awareness of the customer\u2019s eye; this is partially a fantasy of intrusion into a private world, which demands a sort of obliviousness to your own performance<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

As the others attempt to steer the conversation elsewhere, Hime continues to declare her <\/span>bird rights philosophy<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n

\u201cYou\u2019re being quite needy today.\u201d Mitsuki eventually takes the bait and gives her a hug<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cI just want to be on good terms with you, Onee-sama.\u201d \u201cNo need to worry. Your Onee-sama\u2019s just being shy.\u201d Sumika gestures towards one of the tricky contradictions with Mitsuki: her performance isn\u2019t all feigned, as she actually has trouble expressing her feelings in real life too<\/span><\/p>\n

Sumika points out that Hime didn\u2019t actually mess up in her performance, but Mitsuki still has difficulty praising her<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

\u201cOh, Kanoko. I didn\u2019t see you there.\u201d Even her best friend often overlooks her. A person with basically no presence<\/span><\/p>\n

Kanoko wonders why Hime is working so hard to gain the approval of just one girl who clearly doesn\u2019t like her<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cBad people shatter my facade.\u201d Hime reflects on her true feelings being revealed back in middle school. The \u201cbad people\u201d are the ones she has to work hardest to win over, lest they destroy her performance entirely. Her past rejection has informed this desperate people-pleasing complex<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

\u201cOnce people find out I\u2019m acting, everyone flips out and leaves. That\u2019s why I can\u2019t let anyone know it\u2019s a facade. Bad people out me and get in my way. That\u2019s why I have to be liked by bad people, too. I have to be loved by everyone.\u201d Any partial illusion will inevitably be deflated by those who don\u2019t believe her. Because she cannot seem to find satisfaction in individual bonds, she must ensure her illusion is total. Ironically, her demand for total worship emphasizes her underlying lack of faith in her own merits as a person<\/span><\/p>\n

Also seems like Mitsuki herself was the one who punctured her bubble back in middle school. So that explains her natural distrust of Hime<\/span><\/p>\n

And yet, she actually cares about Kanoko\u2019s genuine opinion of her, and thus heads back to inform Kanoko that this whole performance with Mitsuki is an act. Of course, it\u2019s Mitsuki in the dressing room, not Kanoko. Ironic that her first sincere expression this episode only further affirms Mitsuki\u2019s distrust of her<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

The next day at work, Kanoko pledges to protect her if Mitsuki retaliates. The thing is, Mitsuki\u2019s position isn\u2019t really more reasonable than Kanoko\u2019s – we all put on performances in our daily life, because a performance of cheer and harmony is one of the easiest, most fundamental ways we get along smoothly in society. Mitsuki\u2019s scorn for social performance is itself a pretty adolescent attitude, akin to the initial perspectives of Oregairu\u2019s leads<\/span><\/p>\n

At work, Mitsuki proudly explains the nature of Earl Grey tea to the customers. I assume to her, fluency in this imagined world\u2019s expectations is actually freeing, as the rules here have a clear internal consistency. In contrast, the real world is full of people like Hime, who lie and make their own rules rather than expressing themselves clearly. Those who lack natural social faculties will often gravitate towards the clear expectations of genre like this<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s almost annoying how perfect you are.\u201d In contrast, Sumika seems to possess full confidence both on and off stage, meaning she can actually embellish on the script rather than just read her prescribed lines<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cCome on, turn on the \u2018little sister\u2019 already.\u201d Mitsuki already knew who Hime was, so she has no interest in calling her out further. She just wants her to get back to supporting the pageantry<\/span><\/p>\n

But Hime\u2019s usual vector for conversation is her facade, and she now feels too nervous to wield that against Mitsuki, knowing that Mitsuki knows it\u2019s a fake. They have lost any common language<\/span><\/p>\n

Poor Hime. She thought her performance was so effective, but both her senpais know it\u2019s a false front, and now she\u2019s too nervous about being discovered to be her usual, flagrantly dishonest self<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

\u201cWhat? What is this!? What are they doing!?\u201d Hime now finds herself in the position she feared the most – utterly outside of the group dynamic, hearing whispers in the distance and wondering what they\u2019re saying about her<\/span><\/p>\n

Mitsuki and Hime reach their first point of genuine understanding backstage, through Hime realizing that Mitsuki is as confused by her behavior as she is confused by Mitsuki\u2019s. Neither of them are certain how the revelation of Hime\u2019s performance is <\/span>supposed<\/span><\/i> to change how they feel about each other<\/span><\/p>\n

And so Hime at last lets her shields down a little, admitting her fears about being shunned, and her genuine desire to be liked by Mitsuki<\/span><\/p>\n

Unfortunately, this confession is accompanied by a brief riff on the \u201chorrible person\u201d who once revealed her secret. Whoops<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

And Done<\/b><\/p>\n

Oof, yeah, that\u2019s a tough one. And she was working so hard <\/span>not<\/span><\/i> to step on any live wires, too! It feels very in keeping with this production\u2019s love of social ironies that Hime\u2019s first attempt to actually confess her honest feelings would backfire so spectacularly, essentially proving to her that opening up to others is the surest way to make them reject her. Both of them were inches away from some genuinely healthy social growth, but the trauma of past experiences certainly has a way of punishing us for attempting to move beyond them. But unfortunate foot-in-mouth moments aside, it\u2019s still encouraging to see Hime attempting more sincerity, and also coming to some understanding of the distinctions between her school and cafe performance\u2019s assumed audiences. Now I just want to learn more about Mitsuki\u2019s deal!<\/span><\/p>\n
