...oh my god, now that Maya’s blown her secret these two can just chat in French and confuse the shit out of everybody else :D

(I’m busily doing classwork today but here’s a couple more of those pan stitches I did)

Oh before I go eat dinner here’s one of the pans I stitched together while I was away from the blog

As they recite this speech once more, even grouped together the same way as they were before-- this time, the curtain rises. This time, it’s their beginning.

~Blog direction stuff~

Okay, so. None of this is going to be relevant for a bit because I still need to read the epilogue chapter and watch the OVAs for Revue, but.

Y’all voted for me to liveblog Symphogear after I finished Revue. I intend to honour that. However, there’s a catch, which I’ll get to in a minute.

Here’s what I know about Symphogear:

Magical girls? Mecha? Music? Some combination of those three?

I’ve had an irrational bad feeling about it for a hot minute, probably just since I heard it was a mecha anime because those generally don’t appeal to me.

I’ve been warned it “gets a little fanservicey in season one”.

I’ve seen one character design and I liked the colour palette, kinda mint and pink pastel. Very cute.

When I mentioned to my gf that was what won the poll, she tried valiantly not to cringe and told me she thought it wasn’t a show I would enjoy. She generally has a very good handle on what I like and what I don’t, and she (having watched a few episodes of it herself and noped out) then discussed it with some of her friends who watched whole seasons and they agreed.

So I’m concerned. However! Y’all voted, and I don’t want to just throw that away. So here’s the deal:

I’m going to watch one episode of Symphogear. If I do not have a good time, I’m going to stop. No shade to people who enjoy it, obviously; for all I know I will end up enjoying it and I’ll keep going! But this liveblog is something I do for fun, I don’t have a Patreon or anything, and I don’t want to let it become a burden. I’m trying to have boundaries, haha.

If I do enjoy Symphogear, I will keep going with it!

If I do not enjoy Symphogear, I will alternate episodes of Owl House (which I’ve wanted to blog for a while) and Princess Tutu (which came in second on the poll).

I’m gonna post this and then dip off the internet for a bit, because I have a lot of classwork to do and also because I don’t want to let myself get even accidentally pushed around by well-meaning people who aren’t trying to push me around. It happens, I’m sometimes easy to push and then I regret the hell out of it. Self care!! Byeeeee talk to y’all later
