I think this is one of those ideas the author had when he first wrote the scene, but didn’t really pursue as the story progressed. It suggests that Rin is pretty popular with the boys. This is mentioned a few times throughout the VN (I remember three instances), but never does become relevant. It’s not unusual for a female character to be populare with the boys just for her looks, but since “Rin-sama” is so different from the way Rin’s character is displayed throughout the rest of the game, leaving that part in her introduction scene does strike me as a mistake.
A very important point to make. If you’ve been living in several different countries while you were still developing, it’s bound to have a massive impact on your personality. The first and most obvious one is that everyone, especially kids your age, don’t understand your way of thinking at all. I’m speaking from experience here.
Many people assume Kud is just quirky and weirdly talking for the sake of being a popular moeblob, forgetting that personalities aren’t just a patchwork of different character traits that are decided on the roll of a dice. And we all know how much thought Key puts into all of their characters, even those you’d think are mere comic relief.
In other words, hating people for the way they talk is totally fine? Is it ok for me, then, to hate people for, say, their accents, especially if they’re hard to understand? Is it fine to refuse communicate - which is the foundation of understanding - with them? I don’t think so. Speech is a part of the personality, but assuming that someone is a horrible person because they don’t adjust the way they speak to what I find pleasant is just as superficial as, say, judging people by their looks.
