Rika Orimoto is deeply in love with Yuta Okkotsu.
The Profound Affection of Rika for Yuta
From her childhood, Rika Orimoto harbored immense affection for Yuta Okkotsu. This deep emotional connection formed the very foundation of her existence, even after her tragic passing. Her love for Yuta was so powerful that it transformed into a formidable curse, binding her to him and manifesting as the "Queen of Curses."
The Severing of a Cursed Bond Through Love
The resolution of the curse between Rika and Yuta was a testament to the strength and unique nature of her love. It was Yuta's profound act of acceptance of her death and his willingness to truly let go that paved the way for the curse to be broken. Crucially, Rika, driven by her unwavering love for Yuta, chose not to punish him, which was the ultimate factor in dissolving their cursed bond.
Her decision stemmed from a place of true affection and forgiveness. She was able to forgive Yuta, acknowledging his acceptance of her fate. In a poignant moment, Rika expressed her gratitude to Yuta for the "six extra years" she was able to spend by his side, even in her cursed state. This act of breaking the curse was not one of violence or force, but a mutual understanding and the release born from profound love and acceptance, allowing Rika's spirit to finally find peace.
