##**Articles Going Into the Anthology**
u/LoPanDidNothingWrong gives a good line about Mayaka and Satoshi really captures her character in particular:
> Mayaka messes up and can’t not hold herself accountable. It shows how her personality and Satoshi’s are at odds with one another. She can’t forgive herself, and, of course, she can’t stand Satoshi’s cavalier approach to everything.
u/KamachoBronze despite my strong disagreements about Oreki’s friends makes two really good observations:
> In short, Oreki has found out that praise is both a pleasure and poison. It is dual sided, and can trap a person when it makes them feel they cant live up to the praise they have received, crushing their self confidence. As the movie arc has done, and as Irisu’s manipulation in the OVA shows.
> Oreki also shows a continual flaw of his. His failure to take into account personal motivations and feelings, and to only see mysteries in a logical manner, much like his original theory with Sekitani Jun. Mysteries involving humans require a motivation and emotional understanding. Without which, his answers will always be deficient. Still, he seems to be working on it, and once the flaw is pointed out, he is able to grasp the personal motivation and feeling with little trouble. One cannot say, Oreki is not special. He does great work, but occasionally needs input. As the best often do.
u/biochrono79 and their answer about Mayaka:
> Seems like she’s kind of the Miko Iino of the club – she’s hardworking and diligent, but also stiff and serious, which can rub people the wrong way. It’s clear she was very much against cosplaying herself and made that known to the club, before deciding to do so in the end. At least that’s what seemed to be implied by that group of girls whispering about her cosplay. She’s obviously not a bad person at all, but it seems like her being opinionated doesn’t mesh with all of her fellow club members.
##**Questions of the Day**
**First Timers:**
1. Why is Satoshi a bit irritated with Tani trying to compete with him?
2. Are you with Mayaka or Ayako on the arguments on what makes a Classic?
3. Eru can bend Oreki to her will, why is she such a bad negotiator now it seems?
**Rewatchers:**
1.[Spoilers]>!When Oreki reads *A Corpse By Evening* and thinks its a masterpiece is that an argument for or against Ayako when it comes to “Antenna”?!<
**Source Readers**
1. None for today. (I’m tired and hungry from a long day Can’t think talk about whatever you want regrading the source.)
See you on the Next Meeting of the Classic Lit Club!
