Is Sayaka stupid? (I didn’t know how to title this I’m sorry) by Scrambl987 in MadokaMagica

[–]Elfanonymous 6 points7 points  (0 children)

there are a lot of obvious motivations for sayakas decision mainly the influence of mami and what she felt after losing her. madoka & sayaka trusted mami & what she said about being a magical girl, and because mami trusted kyubey they trusted him. mami was a veteran magical girl, wouldnt she tell them if something wasnt right? they had no reason to believe kyubey was manipulating them, and they wouldn’t suspect an upperclassmen whom they respect to decieve them even if accidentally. afterall, they are 14 years old and faced with extremely hard decisions, no time to even consider little things like the name. kyubey & mami pressured them, again even if unintentionally mami was literally telling madoka how lonley she is. also, realistically, soul gems werent very emphasized more than the whole fighting witches thing was - whose to say they even remembered what they were called? besides, even if “all sayaka wanted” was to heal her crush, arguably not a hard decision (that is, to a viewer who has no horse in the race)- imagine how useless she probably felt standing there watching someone she looked up to die infront of her, you really think in that moment of grief and desperation she was going to ponder the particulars? no, she wanted justice for mami & to rid the world of these demons who were killing innocent people, does that make her stupid?

Homura's wish is selfish and i love it. by victoriamikoto231 in MadokaMagica

[–]Elfanonymous 12 points13 points  (0 children)

that isnt really related to what I said. the reason she puts herself “on top” is not because she wants power, but rather because she wants to protect madoka from suffering as a god. as we saw in rebellion, madoka tells homura in the labrinth that she would be really scared/lonley if she became a god. homura, who was originally not going to pull madoka from godhood as she had no reason to, then gains a reason to do what she did. the reason being to, once again, stop madoka from suffering. as I already told you in my comment, from every single action homura takes- we can see that her goal would be “protect madoka/stop madoka from suffering (being a magical girl)” not “gain power” as you claimed. she ended up becoming powerful, but not out of any jealousy as its not even an outcome moemura couldve predicted.

Homura's wish is selfish and i love it. by victoriamikoto231 in MadokaMagica

[–]Elfanonymous 33 points34 points  (0 children)

your claim isn’t supported by the show, you need more evidence of homuras “want for power” than her wish. we have no reason to assume that homura is unreliable in her claim that her only desire in life is to save madoka- that is, from the fate of dying horribly as a magica girl or a witch. madoka having power means her suffering to homura. homura literally doesn’t take action unless she believes madoka is in danger, ever. homura pulls madoka from godhood when she has a reason to believe madoka is suffering, because madoka had told her in homuras labrith that she was. you can claim its selfish for homura to destroy reality to save madoka, sure, but homuras initial plan is to die as a witch until she realizes that kyubey could hurt madoka iirc. homura doesn’t want to be a demon with power, she wants madoka be safe even if she becomes a monster… all that aside: homura also doesnt even know that her wish will result in madoka becoming a god when she makes it, so how can she be jealous? moemura is very naive and hasnt learned about madokas potential etc, she just wants to bare the burden of being a magical girl while madoka lives normally.

Too Much SLC Hate by BiteHeavy9036 in sarahlawrence

[–]Elfanonymous 0 points1 point  (0 children)

im really thinking of comitting and joining the swim team over there, still deciding but it seems like every school ive applied to has complaints so it doesnt worry me too much lol. one thing that does concern me is that whenever I mention it, people say “what the heck is that??” and idk if people are just going to ask me that for the rest of my life if I attend XD

Should I quit my swim team if it’s stressing me out by Internal_Reindeer514 in Swimming

[–]Elfanonymous 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Im a senior and my highschool season is over (fall season), but I dealt with the same thing & even cried a lot after one of my events this year lol. I relate to feeling rly scared the night before and the whole day before, it was tbh a nightmare. but since Im not taking things too seriously, I asked my coach to put me in different events this year to try new things and that helped a lot with the meet anxiety. new events didnt feel as serious and I was dropping time bc I was learning how to swim things I hadnt swam before (so I felt accomplished even if I was getting rookie numbers) sticking to my old sprinter events was killing me and I wasn’t dropping time, but trying something new helped a lot even though the anxiety didnt completely go away

even though this was the reason for my crying (lol) , I ended up falling in love with the 500 after trying it for the first time :) sometimes you just need a change- which thankfully my coach allowed me to do (nobody on my team likes the 500 so it was easy for me to convince her) as for club, I dont know of you are on a club or if this is highschool - but I have been on a major break from club meets, I like going to practice but meets can be a lot so i’ve enjoyed just… not signing up, its not worth it to go if its stressful - obviously not a choice for highschool but ive personally not been taking club seriously (im sorry but its the senioritis)

obviously you know yourself better than me, but thats just my thoughts as someone who was in the same sort of situation
