I hadn't thought of him not remembering her. Maybe that's the reason he's drawn to Mei: she looks like someone he can't quite remember.

As for Izumi, she just needs someone to smack her and say "Seriously, what the fuck are you doing?" Problem solved. Unfortunately, everyone who was ever in a position to do that dies, so it's not likely. It's odd, the only iteration of her character I liked was the anime version, mainly because she's a bit more rounded: in the film she's a psychopath and in the manga she's demented and paranoid. Go figure.
