ASUKA:“Somehow, I feel like nothing matters anymore.”
HIKARI:“I think it's okay for you to do whatever you want and I won't say anything,”
UrsusArctos: This is a totally noncommital response on Hikari's part, one that doesn't address anything that Asuka's said and is almost completely disconnected from it. Asuka wants Hikari to help her affirm her self-worth and Hikari utterly fails to do so by being a passive listener and mouthing platitudes.
