I got meguca on the brain so I wanna hear your thoughts on Homura and also my girl Mami 🔥🔥🔥
Ah yes...Just Like Me Fr and My Fave, of course
Favorite thing about them: For Homura, I think it's her resilience, the way she kept going and refused to give up on Madoka, even after endless failures to save her. It's tragic, but it's also really touching. For Mami, I love characters that have tough exteriors, but are really soft on the inside...it's not that Mami is tough or cold the way Homura is, but she has to keep up the Cool Older Sister/Mentor thing when she's more scared and alone than anyone else in the cast. I felt that.
Least favorite thing about them: I used to really hate Homura's post-Rebellion slip into "evil," but now that I would do the exact same thing in her position uhhhh who's to say 🤪 I'm not a huge fan of Moemura, I guess? I think it's cool to see her transformation from the person she used to be to...All That, but on her own. More like Mehmura amirite. For Mami, I think the fanservice they start emphasizing is weird, she's like 15...I'm not one of those people who can overlook that "because she's fictional," I think it's still weird to ogle 15 year olds, sorry
Favorite line: Well. The famous line from Homura about love. A feeling stronger than hope and deeper than despair. That shit hits different. And Mami's whole thing about feeling light because she's not alone anymore. Right before the Charlotte fight. Devastating.
BrOTP: ...I find it really hard to see Homura bro'ing it up with anyone tbh...Mami and Madoka is a brOTP though. Like I implied before though, I see them as like a cool sister dynamic. Close enough
OTP: Madohomu of course. Of course. I don't ship Mami with anyone because a central aspect of her character is her loneliness lmao and also I haven't read A Different Story so I can't see her with Kyoko, and Nagisa is A Child so. No thanks...well actually. She and Mabayu in Magia Record Scene 0 was actually pretty cute. I change my answer, I ship them
NOTP: Idk Homura with anyone else but Madoka? It just feels weird. And again, Mami and Nagisa
Random headcanon: ...I'm so bad about headcanon stuff, can I pass. I'm gonna pass this time I'm sorry
Unpopular opinion: Homura Did Nothing Wrong lmao is that too obvious. Idk my opinion on Rebellion has changed a lot over the years. Especially in my current headspace. Damn. Anyway...unpopular opinion about Mami...idk if this is unpopular, but I just don't like her whole shoehorned thing with Charlotte/Nagisa? I get that the Charlotte thing is iconic, I love Charlotte, but she was killed by her in one timeline, it ain't that deep. And I just don't like Nagisa that much, so seeing her be paired up with my fave constantly now just so she has a companion. Maybe that's an evil way to think but I Don't Like It
Song I associate with them: ...Oh my god. Uh. I don't have anything right off the dome, but there are plenty of songs that feel Homura to me. Taking a cursory glance through my Spotify, Memories Fade by Tears for Fears is a good one. As for Mami...that's trickier...again, don't have anything that comes to me immediately, but if I had time I'd probably find something
Favorite picture of them: Madoka fan art goes crazy, you could go in either of their tags and find masterpieces. I don't want to just repost things and I don't have links available but if you go through my tag you'll find plenty...I also have a Mami specific tag
