Animuji episode 12 thoughts(?) There’s a lot going on in my brain right now and I think I won’t be able to properly sort it out until the last episode airs and I can do a proper write-up. Until then, here’s my half-baked tidbit because I think I’m going to go insane if I don’t shout into my little void.

Episode 12 was thematically excellent! I got exactly what I expected—I just felt that from an audience perspective, it was delivered in a less satisfying way than I had originally hoped.

Avemygo are narrative foils—direct mirrors of each other. As such, I have always envisioned them to be equal and opposite forces.

In spirit, they maintain this force balance. However, in my opinion, the drop in writing/pacing quality means that in execution, this balance is sadly betrayed.

What I mean by this: I currently feel that as a narrative, Mygo is easily able to exist and stand on its own without Ave Mujica. Hell, Mygo did stand alone for 18 months without issue. However, I believe the same is not true in reverse—as of current, Ave Mujica cannot stand on its own without Mygo.

In hindsight, maybe wanting a sequel installment to dually function as a standalone was a much tougher ask than it was for its predecessor/mirror. Unfortunately, that doesn’t stop my wanting.

In summary:

Unsatisfying narratively? We all cheered! (Avemuji theme —> unsatisfying = point)

Unsatisfying compositionally (pacing/writing decisions)? We did not cheer (at least, I did not cheer)

Post animuji ep 5… goodbye cruel world

I can’t get over how creative yet absolutely gut-wrenching the first 12 minutes of this episode were. Avemuji was the only way Sakiko could express her thoughts and feelings. Without the music, she was truly left voiceless. Watching the scenes build up with different sounds, interviews, radio, crowds, cars, etc, but noticeably no background music. And Sakiko stays silent, storytelling happening all around her but never directly through her, until the only line she speaks in the entire episode. I hate myself. I fear this might be a masterpiece of show don’t tell.

Anyway Raana appears we all cheered

ngl this might be a bit too much even for her

Post animuji ep4, I always thought that Saki was at least semi-projecting during the infamous Soyo convo in Mygo ep8, but I never expected it to be mirrored in such a deliberate, soul-crushing way

Ah yes, the duality of tsukinomori students
