Actually this is a good reminder for me to replay games from Worst Girls Games...

This is honestly why the scenes in Heaven Will Be Mine where they're straight up just beating the shit out of each other hit different. Special shoutout to the missions on Ares

Helmet close-ups

Which is why they get mad at you if you talk about anything else, because they can't comprehend thinking about two things

You would do numbers on tumblr dot com with sentences like that ngl

In real life where we have a world that wants visually appealing art that doesn't challenge the viewer, having a story about making art that differs from the norm and is true to itself is super impactful

Also I love how the event emphasized that, while technical skill is important, being able to create art that truly connects with the viewer because you aren't forcing yourself into a box is crucial

Both Kanade and Ena have felt as if the art they make is something that's an obligation rather than a choice; for the former it's all about the Guilt™️ and for the latter she literally says "what am I without art". Having an event about finding joy in your work is so important and I love it so much

FOR REAL LIKE.... I was telling a friend about it last night that being able to see Ena actively enjoying the act of creation instead of just feeling like it's something she has to do hit different. Even cooler that they had Kanade play an important part in the story as well

syudou (end5 "in the back room") and TOOBOE (end4 "tablet") are also some of the people they brought on, just listing them from the top of my head. TOOBOE only recently went back to making vocaloid after being comm'd for the game Project Sekai, but syudou still consistently makes vocaloid on his own

If its any reassurance, tumblr is one of those websites where you could literally go years between posts and people will still wait patiently for whatever you're cooking up. Don't feel too pressured to post and take your time if you need it!!

Original panel, if you haven't seen it btw

Idk the specific details about what kind of system members she'd have but the concept is fun so I couldn't help but add my thoughts :3c

From there I think Kanade eventually comes to accept the fact that she's a system. It's a process of adjusting to it and unlearning bad habits about subconsciously trying to ignore/repress the system but she figures it out

She would totally be adverse to being a system at first because she wouldn't want it to get in the way of her composing music and would repress any switching. This topic only ever comes up after 3rd anni because Mafuyu notices Kanade complaining about headaches a lot <- projecting my switch symptoms

Textless version btwwww

And eyesight tbh
