She may need to be more careful of her definition of good luck. Yoshi
is, at most, a sideshow as far as the Sisterhood's current problems
are concerned. Dealing with him should be deferred until after Dasma
is freed or the attempt has failed. Even using him to catch Jupiter
would be an unexpected bonus since they think he just happened upon
the attempt to snatch Makoto.
No, since Sass has been shown that Usagi is Moon, it probably wasn't
hard for her to come to the conclusion that Makoto is probably a
Senshi. I think she even speculated about it on-screen. And even
if Makoto isn't a Senshi, she's still connected to Usagi, and as
such Yoshi represents leverage, even if once- or twice-removed.
Sass doubtless has APBs out on all the senshi, all the civilian IDs
she's been able to connect to them, and everyone she suspects is
connected to them at all. Yoshi just came up onto her radar first.
All the Sisterhood as a whole has on Yoshi is that he's a bystander
who poked his nose where it didn't belong. Their resources are
finite so they have to limit the search at some point. Vi, on the
other hand, has a special bone to pick with him.
Yep, it's clear he's overreacting.
"Yep, you're clearly overreacting. Smile, babe!"
I was wondering if anyone would notice that. :})
It's actually surprising how many secrets the Inners kept under
Hotaru's roof. I would have expected Hotaru to have investigated her
recruits a bit more carefully.
Arrogance? Hotaru's got more than her share of that, for certain.
At minimum, she has something of a blind spot where the Inners are
concerned -- she probably needs it, given her psychological hangups
concerning Serenity.
It was pointed out to me elsewhere that the state of records in Altua
is also pretty poor, so it wouldn't be surprising for people to have
large gaps in their life history. Ami also mentioned that when they
initially tried to find out more about Ranma.
Every mission, or maybe just every nasty, perverted thing they did
for Griitna thinking that they were serving Dasma. There's a
subtext here, I think, that maybe the Sisterhood wasn't always as
nasty as it is now. Springing Dasma might actually be a good thing.
It's almost guaranteed to be a good thing. The Sisterhood is more
desperate so they're willing to accept more nastiness than they
might have before Dasma fell.
It actually sounds like seducing Makoto is one of the least selfish
things she'd ever done. That's what makes all the damage it did so
ironic.
Oh yeah. The irony is so thick, you can nearly taste it....
What nearly. It almost won't spread, it's so thick.
