I got the feeling that all his actions are a desperate attempt at self-preservation, that inside he's still the little boy who killed his own father to save the mentor that was supposed to protect him.

Yes, this. Both Tomomin's Tyrian and Mariya's Gilda were teetering on the brink on insanity and damaged and desperate. Where Touko and Asuka were turned that same damaged-ness into cold mercilessness towards the world that showed them no mercy, Tomomin and Mariya were so desperately fighting and passionate and alive. It was like watching a completely different show.

(no-one should look this gleeful at the chance to get blown up)

Ahaha, Renta. I think she really was being delusional at the end.

When this one's on, she's on fire.

Yep. I think Makaze does better at 'lower-class' sort of roles. I realised this in ScaPim where she blew me away as an angry peasant in honkoen and then was so boring as Armand in shinko. She needs kind of angry, kind of dirty, kind of sleazy sorts of roles.
