Now that we know for sure Kukrushka is always Manan this brings a question of her morality and thought process. As crazy as Mana is and how we see she is capable of going berserk at times, she also had many moments where she was quite kind and helpful to Yuri like the loop where Yuri was guardian angel or especially the AC follower loop where she herself was guardian angel and literally sacrificed herself for Yuri not to mention in that loop when Yuri questioned who she is she gave him a supportive hug and said “don’t worry you will learn eventually” which we now know why because she knew Yuri would witness her turning into Kukrushka.

But why was she kind to Yuri in the first place ? I mean sure she loops so sacrificing herself was probably no big deal but for what reason ? Is she simply faking the Kukrushka persona ? Does she feel kinda grateful to him and Setsu for granting her kinda immortality ? Does she wants to remain in Yuri’s good side because she knows he is looping ? Or does she simply entertain herself ? Or while i doubt it, has spending time as Kukrushka actually eventually mellows her out and the berserk timelines are just her early loops ?

This really made me wonder how does Manan’s thought process works as Kukrushka

I think she just genuinely enjoyed completely screwing with Yuri's mind every loop

She doesn't really do much outside of that one time. I guess spending time with Remnan really brought out the inner Mannan in Kurushka.
