Mio's reactions I've noticed are more realistic than the other games

Discussion

A few things I've noticed from all the new clips that have been shared here recently, is that Mio's body language and verbal reactions to things are a lot more interesting than in other games.

She gasps, she murmurs to herself, and that sort of thing. In the the cut scene near the beginning I saw, when Mayu went through the gate to Kurasawa House and the door slammed in Mio's face she flinched and her free hand sort of jerked out in a realistic movement of being startled.

Mio also looks in some game play footage to be cringing and has her shoulders hitched up defensively in a very terrified way! I love that, she absolutely is horrifically scared and in an awful situation.

All the other characters are fairly quiet unless they're being grabbed or attacked, and their body language doesn't really change unless they're injured.

I just find it a really interesting change!
