35:43 She even speaks up for him when
Trump is accusing him of having captured her for the purpose of raping her. She says, he's not like that. He wouldn't do that. She can tell, presumably because of all the politeness and the fact that he has not molested her already. She doesn't get that vibe.
36:07 Yeah. One other potential point of connection. People are very quick to throw into Katajina's face how privileged she is, that she grew up wealthy and in sort of rarefied society, that she can't possibly understand how things are for people. And she mostly ignores this criticism as irrelevant. Chronicle tries to argue with
Trump that it doesn't matter to him that his sister is queen, that somehow that shouldn't be relevant, and
Trump rightly throws in his face. You're the only one who thinks that, that if he really wanted to not benefit from his position, he would have to invent a new identity and move away. He cannot exist in the society he exists in and not be affected by this connection. He has to power.
18:40 Deeply naive, but he seems to be coming at it from an idealistic perspective that a couple of other characters, notably Katajina and maybe Shakti, also hold, which is that participating in war because of what it does to you spiritually is actually somehow worse than being killed in war. It is better to die innocent than take up the gun. I'm so glad you mentioned him saying Uso is just a child who should still be playing, because it is his use of to play the verb asobu. That is the other really big point that connects war to childhood, because it is the same word that his subordinate
Trump uses when he talks about chronicle kidnapping Katajina for his own selfish, dark desires. He says, you just took this girl so you could play around with her, didn't you?
