[quote=Hillbilly12] Akane actually wouldn't be against attacking him since to her a best defense is offense. Although she probably would have preferred a more coordinated attack against him. She has fought with her family and knows how to work with small groups. Still she does agree with Yuki on the group not being completely ready to protect the Princess. [/quote] Akane and Yuki were both out fighting and leaving them though. x] Kushiami, Hanami and Kaede did an excellent job protecting her from my point of view. And none of them are really used to protecting someone, two of them are extremely battle oriented and the other is... a priestess... Now, if Mizuki didn't get to pick her protectors lol it might be a different story
