My favourite Aqours girl is You Watanabe.

You probably guessed. It's one of nine, right? Each girl has their own charms, but You's... You's just seems to stand out to me the most. Her salute. Her love of sailing, and admiration of her father. Her cheerful cry of "Yousoro" which makes my heart flutter. You also looks adorable in every song’s costume (and also in glasses, thanks Episode 11!), as well as the Uranohoshi uniform and her training clothes. You's many charms - along with her incredible singing voice - showed in Koi ni Naritai AQUARIUM's song and PV, and I just knew she would be my best girl.

The anime began airing, and I fell even more in love. Everytime she smiled (and just like her equally adorable seiyuu that is Shuka Saitou, her smile is like the sun) or cried "Yousoro!", my mood would lift, even if just a little bit. I nearly cried during Episode 11 - I couldn't bear seeing my You so upset. I just wanted to enter the world of Aqours and give her a massive hug - not only to comfort her, but to thank her.

I have Asperger’s Syndrome, a form of autism. Because of this, I’m extremely sensitive, cry a lot, often don’t get jokes and – worst case scenario – can have meltdowns. Despite some of the more positive points like “average/above average intelligence” and et cetera, I often overlook it with the negative stuff as mentioned before. I often hate being who I am. However, You helps cheer me up and calm me down. You is the embodiment of hope, happiness and determination.

I hope I’ve not gone too much away from the original question, but You means so much to me that I can’t help but gush about her like this.

You just has so many cute charms, it’s hard to list them all. Shuka Saitou, her voice actress, also has all of these charms, just composed into an actual, real-life human. If I were ever to meet Shukashuu herself, I’d just have so much thanks to her for being the You that has made me so happy for just over a year. (I’d probably cry loads, too.)

Thank you, Shukashuu.

Thank you, You.
