But it wasn't exactly like she got it on any regular basis, or in any easily understandable way. What she got were images of things that were going to happen, almost as if she were getting previews for shows. It wasn't something that had a time period associated with it, either in how far ahead it was, or how long the vision would last, though the latter would only be measured in minutes at most. The clarity of it could be scary sometimes, as she'd be able to see exactly what was going to happen.
Her problem was that it was a disassociated thing from the reality of the actual events. She might see someone laughing as she stood there in a fairy costume, and get mad at that person, only to find out that the person was really laughing at a joke that she made when the actual event happened. If that wasn't enough, she had the issue of them not having a set way of coming, as they would come from time to time, almost at will. It could help, as she could make herself see where a punch was coming from in a fight, but that could also hurt her, as she'd have times when she'd have a vision, and not be able to react to what was going on around her. She did have some limited control, as she could push herself to have visions if she focused enough, but to put it into regular use would take a lot of self discipline.
And with the way that things were for her, Akane was rather frustrated by the problem. It wasn't exactly like she was going to be able to easily use her power of precognition, and it could be a major hurdle at times. Then there were the dreams that she had, which made her able to see what was going to happen instead of dreaming.
So, she'd basically had to learn how to handle herself better, since stress, especially emotional, could result in a sudden influx of visions. She also had to control her reactions, as simply acting on what she'd see might cause more problems than what she'd seen. Even though she knew that she could change the way events might go, doing so wasn't always a good thing, as she might do something hasty, like get a friend into trouble without meaning too.
That didn't meant that she wasn't a very emotional girl, but she did have some added issues to be concerned about, while:
