One of the saddest yet most wholesome moments is when you see Yanagi at the Scott Outpost, she's standing still by a rail and tells you she's lost her vision temporarily, she asks you to stay and hold her hand until her sight returns, which is really sweet of the Proxy to do.

I love how ZZZ is full of small story and lore details that shows the effects of this world, and often how grim and tragic it truly is — even saving the Oni and Soukaku wasn't a perfect happy ending, it came at a hefty cost for everyone and one that won't ever be able to be undone

[KudaGeatsune]

Considering it saved the oni's who might've attacked & been killed otherwise she probably found it worth it

[thegreensabre]

HEY! she told us to keep it as a secret

[racker]

imagine getting "needs glasses" with time stop powers in one package.

But seriously, she saved a lot of Oni that night and gave Sokaku a better future than war, i think it was worth it.

[GrumbleThest]

I mean, she got a little blue gremlin. I think it was worth it.

A sacrifice to save an entire race.
I also love how she basically gets flowers from everyone on mothers day, for what she did for them.
I love that ZZZ has this upbeat theme but also plays around with dark and difficult themes. But it is usually always bitter-sweet.

Also a hottie with glasses, nice

[skulldozer]

On the plus side, she looks very pretty and elegant with her glasses on.

She also has an optic implant. you can learn it from an trust event in Scott Outpost

Yanagi was basically put in the scenario of you must be willing to give up something to gain something precious, or someone to be precise 😇

[Shyguy-]

It’s also interesting when she taps into the OnI side of her she suffers harshly from the side effects. And that was in the simulation too

[aaronsmith]

That explains the interaction where she mentions being blind for a moment.

[SnakeVT]

She gave soukaku a better life and got a decent boost as a result of what happened it was definitely worth it, needing glasses along with a few other side effects doesn't seem like to big of a deal.

[summerrose]

When she asks you to hold her hand while she's blind, my heart took a heavy hit. You could tell she was scared yet composed while also trusting the proxy calm her nerves instead of getting someone else to sit with her.

Them staying with both Yanagi when she's blind and Miyabi when she's zoned out for god knows how long. Gosh i love Wise and Belle...

[frapiichino]

I love how ZZZ is supposedly this wacky, gooner game, yet has some of the most violent lore to date. I might be losing my mind but I swear it's the first Hoyo game to feature actual blood and an onscreen suicide attempt. The other games usually just allude to it or vaguely feature it.
The closest we got was HI3rd but even then Murata's death wasn't that graphic.

[dalenorothoron]

Poor Yanagi! She deserves better.
I suppose she did save a lot of Onis and so for her she probably would point out the transfusion worth it for her but yeah She is one amazing lady for choosing to keep on fighting and helping others even if she is struggling.

Zzz has amazing stories and characters

[ashaide]

Yanagi is one of the ZZZ characters I really admire. This lady is so selfless and courageous. And deadly to boot. I'm an Anby main, but I'd do everything to protect and care for Yanagi.

[XarantaurTheWitness]

I mean Yanagi got super powers and an oni daughter from the blood transfusion so I'd say worth it. Also the cute outpost trust event was nice

[moriisummer_]

There is an interaction with her at Scott outpost where she asks you to stay by her side as she can't see anything 😮 guess this explains that

[Blizzr]

Honestly, if I became a half-demon super soldier with time powers, I wouldn’t really care if I had mild vision issues
