I am a 100% with primavera and andrenekoi.
I would just like to add that respecting the social norms and conventions 100% would probably still have us stuck in the middle ages. Women wouldn’t have any rights, we would have jails filled with LGBT people.
As it was already said ayu was always a rebel, while she was in, that was acceptable however Japan has regressed in many ways it seems and now you are only acceptable if you are the same as everyone else.
Also guys WOW at those walls of text! We are all busy people here xD
I will go back to being ignorant now
