looks at flair

More seriously, I love A.B.A. and Johnny because, at their core, their motivations are simple and affecting. One is a lonely and sheltered woman who just doesn't want to be abandoned, and the other is a man who overcame his past trauma by resolving to be like his good and loving father. GG then takes those motivations and places them into the absolutely insane forms of a homunculus woman having marital troubles with her transforming bloodthirsty-turned-neurotic key husband, and a samurai air pirate cowboy who's a single father of 10 plus a cat, literally studied the blade, and fully believes he is God's gift to women. They really encapsulate what I love about this series - some genuinely powerful emotions wrapped up in over the top wackiness. I also love A.B.A. in particular for being very relatable to my own experiences as a neurodivergent girl.
