At Haruka’s soul level, she’s more a mama bear than a soldier–she’s ready to fight and die, for people she loves, but there’s no prowl in her, no raw cunning.

YES

And I think this is true for Haruka more than anyone else, even Mako, who is the archetypal Mama Bear but who I see as falling in line when needed and having just a little bit of that edge.

And funnily enough I can see Haruka WANTING it more than the other girls. While there’s a lot of wishing for ordinary lives, I can so easily see Haruka wanting to be the perfect knight, and she really never can be.
