Her past was kinda dark. She was very distant and given up on life until Shouma saved her from the Child Broiler. Then when she was adopted into the Takakura family she acted like a brat because the mom didn't buy her the right ribbons... then she was willing to kill a koi fish to heal the mom. We first see her as sweet and innocent then stuff like that comes up makes it a very sharp contrast.

Most of the show takes place while she is terminally ill and she knows how much her brothers love her and don't want her to die so of course she is not going to act bitter or scared because that would make it harder on them. She accepted her fate and wanted to live what's left of her life happily with her brothers.

If you ask me it wasn't as important to focus on Himari's view on her impeding death as it was how Shouma and Kanba deal with it. I do think more could have been done with Himari's character but she always seemed to care more about how her brothers felt than she did about dying. I never thought she was 'bland' though because she was always on deaths doorstep and only kept alive by a hat with two brothers constantly worried about her. I think her how her character was portrayed made sense for the story. Kanba and Shouma character development was the main focus and saving Himari was the goal.

Why? It struck me a lot as "female character as plot device to trigger male angst" tbh. It made sense for the story, but was a waste of her character.

...Also killing a koi doesn't seem terribly violent to me, lol. She's Japanese, she probably eats fish every day!
