It's very weird because Nagi has that intuitive sense that he's good, but then again, it seems he wants to go through the steps that make him good consciously. He's not just pure intuition/reflex. So I am looking forward to him building a mental model of his peak performance!
Maybe I’ll sound evil, but I’m actually enjoying this. Nagi struggling was exactly what I wanted to see. It makes his journey more interesting, and any future success will feel earned. I never expected him to start winning immediately.
