Was it ever confirmed if Yui had actual autism?
>>287198722I dunno, you look at that girl and tell me she's normal.
>>287198722Autism doesn’t exist in japan
Yeah, the anime skipped the arc in the manga where Yui sees a psychiatrist and gets an official diagnosis. Kind of a weird thing to include in the first place if you ask me.
>>287198722In any case she would have ADHD not autism.
>>287200223Probably closer to ADD with mild intellectual disability and perfect pitch.
>>287200399>mild intellectual disability yui-chan is smart!
>>287198722Why is anime so allergic to confirming that characters that are clearly autistic-coded are, in fact, autistic?>>287200223Aspergers and ADHD usually go hand-in-hand because they have overlapping symptoms and Yui has all of them.>Daydreamer>Easily distracted>Very fidgety>Can't stay still>Obsessive-compulsive>Frequently misses social cuesKakifly is a coward for not just making it officially canon already.
>>287201124I've met plenty of aspies, and most them didn't tick any of those boxes except missing social cues.AD*D does overlap with the 'tist spectrum in the sense that both are characterized by abnormal sensory processing and executive dysfunction, but the symptoms present very differently, and the typical medication (amphetamines) can mitigate AD*D symptoms pretty well, but doesn't help against most of the secondary symptoms of autism.
