Character reviews! :D (who will the next one be about?)

I liked your review, especially it being divided in sections. I have to notice that it became redundant in some places, stating over and over the same traits. Rather than your fault, I'd say that it's because it's a little developed character.

A little detail about his mask: it reminds me of the nightingale, the symbol of the poet.

How his Bankai works shows Kubo understands the essence of art: not only is it aesthetics, it's also capturing the reader's/ audience's heart and make them believe it's true.

Rose appears as the stereotypical Romantic hero (Byron, Pushkin, etc.), with his deep affection for art and faked disinterest for what's really happening around him, unless necessity calls him to the battle front. But Kubo being an artist himself, rather than just making a minor cliché character, he seems to have developed him in full, just hasn't got the opportunity to get him on the spotlight (enough long).

And at the end, I talk too much.
