>>3902366IDK why going that way for a BD novel, when he could have developed more Isami and Smith's pov on what happened during the show and Smith's struggle with the double identity. I mean, they show it but there is no actual talk, and you would expect, since it's a novel, to see them talk but they don't.
In Isami's pov the description often mention how he feels lonely without Smith and Lulu when they split and that's nice, but doesn't go that far, the only explicit (but confusing) monologue are always done by Bravern which doesn't make things clearer.
I think was, and probably still at this point, headcanon that Smith thought that Isami only liked his Bravern self but not him when Isami liked both. I don't personally dislike because Smith is showed as person who has a strong will but doesn't think highly of himself.
Anyway, if it ended with BV/Smith fusing again with Isami as spiritual and physical union i wouldn't have any problem, it's cute and romantic but since they added Lulu saying "you might not turn back like things were if you fuse" that seems like not even japanese understand if a) it means they are stuck like this 4ever (lover's suicide like you say) b) it means that if they fuse Bravern is back and live won't be normal again for Isami and Smith, since after the show was decided to keep Bravern "secret"
