Short summary: Sakura is always ahead of Hatsuho on the battle field.
When Hatsuho looks ahead, just like in any other battle, Sakura is in front, cutting through enemies with her blade. Hatsuho isn’t far behind, but Sakura right now has this steely determination. This incredible spirit, this incredible drive.
It’s kind of funny to think about it, but the way they use their spirits to move these hunks of metal around… It really is mind over matter. Will over matter. And that’s why it makes sense that Sakura is at the front of that line. Because who has a stronger will than Sakura?
It’s also intimidating. Even though Hatsuho made it to the Revue first, has slightly more experience… Sakura’s the true steel of the group. And Hatsuho can only watch as that blade gets stronger, more honed, more polished… And she wonders if she’ll be left behind, but…
“Hatsuho!”
“What are you doing? Don’t just come back here!”
“It’s better if we work together! Come on, Hatsuho!”
That’s right. Hatsuho won’t be left alone. Sakura will come back for her. Hatsuho should remember that. She’s not an extra to Sakura. They are a team.
“Alright! Sakura, let’s go!”
And Hatsuho continues forward, wielding her axe with her own steely will.
