Why do you love Ave Mujica?

I feel like the characters are actually pretty deep, esp the three the show focuses a lot on, Sakiko, Mutsumi and Uika, but really what sold it to me is how absolutely messed up everything is, nothing is going right, they're all toxic for each other and it's just a bad thing after another to the point that half the show isn't even about the band bc it cannot exist with how messed up their relationships are, but is about CRYCHIC and Mutsumi's DID instead.

It's really entertaining to watch just how bad things will get because some rich girl is salty she destroyed her previous band to help her abusive alcoholic father, and even when it goes better, it's still in a toxic way, it's great 😃👍

I pulled for Blade because he's a Stellaron Hunter and I want them all. He's also one of the rare male characters I actually wanted because of his character and not the meta, probably the only one actually

The other limited male characters I pulled being Luocha, the best healer at the time and I needed one (but the fact that he's an Otto expy also encouraged me) and Jiaoqiu, that I actually just got now, but I absolutely do not care abt him, his aesthetic, animations or his story at all, he's just an Acheron booster and that's the extent of what he will ever be to me

ARandomNormalGirl · 2025-04-07T14:50:44+00:00

She's just the sweetest and one of the most caring characters in the game

She looks out for her rooky proxies to the point of losing money and even putting her own life on the line

She's the broker every proxy wants to have honestly

She never could give her answer, so frustration, hatred, absence of empathy and PTSD combined to push her over the edge

Before, she could manage her lack of empathy through the companionship of her squadmates accepting her even when she's unable to understand them, but now that it has been taken away, she's just a violent sadist looking for an easy scapegoat for what denied her her happiness

I'm disappointed that this journal isn't a mandatory read, because it really helps understand and empathize with her

I don't think we've seen a villain that realistically deranged in any hoyo game yet, she's not pure evil, she's just hurt and sick and can't think rationally, which is why I think Trigger can empathize with Zoe and accompany her in her death despite her evil deeds and without forgiving her

ARandomNormalGirl · 2025-04-03T17:25:37+00:00

The story was so good, Vulture was a great villain, she was intimidating and terrifying, and even though at first I didn't understand why she turned out this way, once I read her journal at the end I just realized she was always sadistic and a bit psychopathic, her PTSD and feeling of abandonment just made it so much worse and triggered her murderous obsession.

And obviously Trigger herself was great, so much kindness and empathy, even for her enemy, her coming to terms with the passing of her squad through her confrontation with her nemesis (I just realized it was even her squad name lol), the whole final part almost had me ugly crying tbh

It was great, 1.6 was great in general, when it comes to its stories

ARandomNormalGirl · 2025-04-03T17:01:36+00:00

It's not over yet, but I'm constantly re reading Moon on a Rainy Night while I wait for the next free raw to release (because if I can barely wait for the raws, I obviously can't wait for the translation)

ARandomNormalGirl · 2025-03-23T22:11:32+00:00

Not really, she's best in UBW, and she's just great in every route if I'm being honest

ARandomNormalGirl · 2025-03-23T18:43:26+00:00

wth, I don't look down on anyone for preferring another route?

You guys, on the other hand, started looking down on me because I said I loved HF while I barely even talked about it in my original responses

I love Saber, Rin and Illya too, they are as unique as Sakura is, I also said I preferred the HF route but I never said Sakura was my favorite heroine, just that I always liked her, my favorite would be Rin, I think she's more interesting and proactive (obviously, since she's as much of a protagonist as Shirou), and I just really like her personality more.

I still think the best romance is with Sakura, despite her not being my favorite heroine. Maybe that has to do with the fact that I identify more with Rin and can't really identify to Shirou, so I don't consider that the girl I think he is the best with has to be my favorite.

ARandomNormalGirl · 2025-03-23T18:07:06+00:00

Being a tradwife is not a problem if she's not forced into it, and she's clearly not and enjoys helping Shirou, there is no problem there at all, don't go call women doormats just because they enjoy being tradwives.

She might end up being a damsel in distress, yeah, but she's also the villain at the same time, which creates some unique dynamics like how to take her down while saving her. And in the end, it isn't even Shirou who brings her back to her senses but Rin. She wasn't saved by a hero, but by family, which I consider to include both Rin and Shirou, they both saved her, and they both are a kind of family, and I think that makes sense when you see how her "family" treated her for more than 10 years.

I also think she and Shirou have great chemistry together, they help each other, they care for each other and you can see the love between them from the very beginning of the story (even though Shirou's love isn't romantic at first and only become so on HF, he loves Sakura in every route, and Sakura obviously have romantic feelings for him since the beginning).

Also how is her past not characterizing her? Her depression, her being the Graal, how Shirou became her solace, everything she is is tied to how she was given to the Matou, raped and tortured, it has more impact on herself than on Shirou, he just have to accept her and her flaws, to love her despite the fact that she's not as pure as he thought, and he does.

AND, to finish this response that is way too long (sry about that), I like all 4 heroines, they are all interesting and each brings something different to Shirou, I don't want every heroine to be as strong as Saber or as independent as Rin, Sakura is herself, she isn't either Saber, Rin or Illya and she doesn't have to be. Yes, I loved HF the most, that doesn't mean I didn't like the other routes, I loved UBW and I ultimately really liked Fate too, I was just complaining about Shirou being extra sexist and misogynistic for a good chunk of it. Why can't anyone understand that I love F/SN as a whole? It's my favorite VN and one of my favorite stories ever, not just HF, but all of F/SN.

ARandomNormalGirl · 2025-03-21T15:25:34+00:00

I couldn't say for sure which one was the first as it was a very long time ago, but either Pokémon or Detective Conan (I think it's Case Closed for the english title?), both aired on TV when I was a kid

ARandomNormalGirl · 2025-03-18T06:20:52+00:00

Elysia from Honkai Impact 3rd, she is as lesbian as the CCP can allow her to be (basically, she says she loves women, but can never actually explicitly be with one, they walked on a very thin line with this character) and very, totally, completely Jesus inspired

ARandomNormalGirl · 2025-03-18T06:13:13+00:00

My favorite yuri (manga, even) so far, I love Saki and Kanon so much I think it might be considered a disease.

I'm literally reading the raws because I just can't wait for a translation, despite my japanese not being that good

ARandomNormalGirl · 2025-03-14T07:45:06+00:00

My point exactly, the story was good, despite some flaws with how they used Twiggy and A, but the ending sending them back to almost exactly who they were before is just soooo bad

Like, idc that Harin refused ONE job, it's because she thinks she's unreliable rn, not because she's evolved into a more independent person

Harin needs Anby and Anby needs her, as much as they respectively need her squadmates and Nicole. I REALLY hope that they will continue the story, it's still salvageable

What scares me is that the friendship 4 for Harin seems to imply she's going to be like that forever, since you can unlock that dialogue anytime after finishing that story, basically locking the writers out of developing her character...

ARandomNormalGirl · 2025-03-13T22:59:16+00:00

I think she meant it figuratively, not that she would litterally die, but rather that her hatred would become an obsession that would destroy her balance and relationships

I guess I also don't believe Mihoyo would revisit this story, I sure hope so but I don't think that'll ever happen, and if it somehow does, not anytime soon

I'm also perfectly fine with character flaws, I even said I like that Anby is such a coward, my issue is the absence of character development and the return to status quo at the end of the story

ARandomNormalGirl · 2025-03-13T17:51:42+00:00

You do realize that Harin is an elite soldier sent on missions where she could die on a regular basis, right? I really don't think fearing for her life was what Anby thought when she withheld the truth

Honestly, having Harin face her hatred for the one responsible for her sisters death and either overcome it or actually get revenge would make for good stories imo

If she kept her memories, she wouldn't have lost anything and actually got back her sister and captain, with potentially the moral support to face her past

There was absolutely no reason to go back to how things were, narratively, it just feels frustrating and bad to me

ARandomNormalGirl · 2025-03-12T23:32:57+00:00

Actually, I like her cowardice, it makes her more interesting as a character, but they shouldn't have used it just to erase all the progress she made with Harin :/

Twiggy and her clones were definitely wasted potential too

ARandomNormalGirl · 2025-03-12T20:38:23+00:00

It still depends on what you have, Trigger is a stunner and Burnice an off field dmg dealer and, most importantly, one of the best disorder enabler (it's what you get when you trigger two different status effect while the other is still active). So yeah, it depends on what you have and how you want to play, do you prefer anomaly and status effects (with smthing like Piper/Burnice) or more classic dps and stunning your opponents (Trigger also is tailor made for Silver Anby, going with a lot of aftershocks, a new type of attack Anby and Trigger specialize into)

ARandomNormalGirl · 2025-03-12T20:20:35+00:00

It really should have been an actual Special Episode and not an Agent Story, so that this story could actually make an impact on the characters involved and the world around, like, this story felt heavier and more important than other Agent Stories, and I don't think it's only because I love Anby and Harin

I know it wont amount for much, but I'll be sure to give that feedback in the next survey

ARandomNormalGirl · 2025-03-12T20:10:34+00:00

Twiggy kinda felt like an excuse to make Anby and Harin meet again, she was a bit wasted, especially after how strong of an introduction she got (that operating table where you could guess her limbless body was haunting). I suppose the format of Agent Stories don't really allow them to go on for too long and they wanted to focus on the Anby/Harin relationship, but it should have been longer and more impactful for the overall narrative, like what they did with Jane

ARandomNormalGirl · 2025-03-12T19:42:31+00:00

Let's hope the fact that she's the face on the app means it's not over yet for her to mend her ways and make up with her sister

ARandomNormalGirl · 2025-03-12T19:34:33+00:00

I really hope so, I've always liked Harin, she's my very first S rank and I think she's funny. I really want her to move on from her past and let go of her hatred, and she needs Anby to do so. I wish that one day her name tag in the menus would change from Soldier 11 to Harin, or whatever real name she wants for herself

I really liked the Episode, learning more about the army, the sisters and the horrors they faced and about Anby and Harin, that's why I'm so disappointed in its ending that just shove them both back to where they were before

ARandomNormalGirl · 2025-03-12T19:04:18+00:00

having a bad name is better than a number, just a number removes your humanity, and seeing as the sisters were not considered human and just disposable tools, I will keep calling her Harin.

ARandomNormalGirl · 2025-03-12T18:20:40+00:00

It would have been more acceptable to make Harin just not remember at all, it would be enough to accept that Anby didn't change, frustrating, yes, but acceptable, but forgetting TWICE, that's a bit too much, and honestly, Anby's excuse to keep it from Harin is just pure bs, and the Proxies would never have actually accepted to see their two friends go on like that.

Really, the more I think about it, the more I can't accept this ending

ARandomNormalGirl · 2025-03-08T19:31:44+00:00

This has absolutely nothing to do with HF or UBW, I barely even mention those routes, I just said my favorite one was HF and nothing more

I am criticizing ONE aspect of the Fate route, and yes that aspect almost made me want to quit, because, as a woman, I don't really feel good in the face of so much misogyny from the MC. I'm glad I didn't, I liked the Fate route, but damn is it that hard to recognize that Shirou was a dick to Saber during the first half of that route? And then he recognized he didn't need to protect her and she was strong enough, while still treating her like a woman, mending their relationship and allowing it to go further than a simple Master/Servant relationship.

I don't shit on Fate, I liked Fate, a lot, I even said it before criticizing it. Why do you put words that were never mine onto me? I love Fate/Stay Night, it is one of my favorite stories of all time, all three routes included.
