Okay, Let's Talk About Boris Airay.
Hear me out, folks. We need to address the elephant in the Clover Kingdom: Boris Airay. Yeah, I said it.
I know, I know. He's not the flashiest character. But is he secretly the best?
The "Normal" Guy in a World of Mad Hatters.
Everyone in Clover is bonkers, right? They're all fighting or obsessed with Alice. Or both! Then there's Boris.
He's... kind of normal. Relatively speaking. He likes cats. He makes clocks. He's not trying to kill anyone (usually). Is it just me, or is that refreshing?
It's like, you're watching a reality show full of drama queens and suddenly, someone starts doing laundry. You're strangely captivated.
The Subtle Charm of the Cheshire Cat.
Let's be honest: Boris's Cheshire Cat thing is cute. The ears? The tail? Adorable.
Plus, he's always got that chill, slightly mischievous vibe. He knows all the secrets. He's just not telling.
That's way more interesting than screaming about territories, isn't it?
Unpopular Opinion: He's Actually a Good Boyfriend.
Now, before you throw your Nightmare Gottschalk plushies at me, think about it.
Boris is *always* there for Alice. He's patient. He's understanding. He lets her explore her weird, Wonderland-y feelings.
Compare that to some of the other guys. Some of them are legit scary! Others are just... intense.
He's the Friend We All Need.
I think Boris would be the ultimate "shoulder to cry on" friend. He'd listen to your problems. He'd offer tea and maybe a weird clock fact.
And he wouldn't judge you. Because let's face it, he's probably seen worse.
He’s always got some witty and funny comment ready to be dropped.
The Underrated Angst.
Don't get me wrong, Boris isn't *perfect*. He has his own issues. His weird attachment to his grandfather’s watch, his loneliness...
But that's what makes him relatable! We all have our quirks. Our anxieties. Our slightly concerning obsessions.
Boris just happens to wear them with cat ears.
In Conclusion: Give Boris Some Love!
Look, I'm not saying Boris is the *only* good character in Clover. But I think he deserves more appreciation.
He's the quiet guy in the corner who's secretly the coolest.
So next time you're re-reading or re-watching Alice in the Country of Clover, give Boris Airay a second look. You might be surprised by what you find.
Maybe he's just waiting for someone to notice his subtle charms?
He is the kind of cat we need and the best one we don't deserve.
