happy day and night dtuesday from the scriptwriters

AND THEY WERE ROOMATES!!!! IT'S CANON THAT THEY'RE ROOMATES NOW UHUUUU

shes got writers block

I need everyone to appreciate kirishio more. They're so amazing to everyone and to each other...this moment in particular I love (though Knowledge of a Stage Girl always makes me cry so that's probably helping) and Shion feels so real. There's that scene where she recruits Elle for the arcana arcadia writing and she's just so sweet...and nobody cares about kirishio but me, it feels like.

get PLUSHIED bozos!!!!!!!

hikari is so silly i love her 😭

They may be confirmed to be roommates, but Amemiya and Masai having a secret hide out somewhere in the school is still important to me

amemiya and masai commisions !

Started shipping Amemiya and Masai as a joke. What if those background characters were gay too?

Then realised that you know what this is a cool ship. No longer shipping it as just a joke.

AND THEN THE MOVIE HAPPENED.

So! Ateam wants me dead personally and dropped Amemiya and Masai revue outfit designs, knocking me dead and making me go eat concrete!

Is this their idea of an April Fool’s joke? Yes. Am I going to take this 100% seriously and at face value? Also yes.

This is mostly a cleaned up collection of my insaneposting from other places (cough Twitter and Discord) so these thoughts may be sporadic. And nonsensical. And filled with so much copium.

First major comment! Their revue outfits are almost entirely black. This also includes their undershirts, which one should note are - by default - white for Class A. Not only does this work as representing the difference between Classes A and B (Class A get white undershirts while Class B get black ones), but this choice of palette for their outfits is almost certainly a reference to the traditional wear of stagehands: they typically wear black or other dark clothes as a means of making sure they remain unseen during performances. Invisible, away from the spotlight, if you will.

Should note that this is mostly an anime-to-game thing, since Sakura Yanagi’s uniform in the stageplays is uniquely colored and features a white undershirt. However, one can also probably reason this is because Sakura outright reawakens as a stage girl, whereas we (currently) know nothing about the context for the Amemiya and Masai revue drip.

Another point: wow, their weapons are very silly. Byproduct of this entire thing being an April Fool’s addition and all. Yet in spite of them being supposed gag weapons, they actually do fit the two of them to a degree, even as jokes? Bear with me here.

Amemiya’s is mostly self-explanatory. She’s the scriptwriter. Her weapons are her words and this is pretty much a literal representation of that. Something something pen power sword. The thing is very stupid but it’s also very blunt and straightfoward in the same way Amemiya is.

Masai’s is REALLY silly... she’s gonna DECK you with her FOG MACHINE. There’s still cohesion here, though, albeit if it’s a bit straw-graspy. The “kiri” in her given name, Kiriko, literally means fog, so there’s that. There’s also the fact that - from what little we know of her - Masai herself is somewhat non-confrontational, preferring to avoid conflict for the sake of keeping peace (since Amemiya has to be the one to step in and fully reject Kaoruko back in Episode 6, not Masai), but when she needs to stand her ground, she does so well (see Gekijouban). Her having a rather unorthodox, ineffective-seeming weapon kind of works in her favor and represents this aspect of her; it’s a fog machine so it can produce a means of allowing her to hide and avoid attacks, but since it’s a blunt force weapon if swung at someone, it hits hard when it counts.

So honestly for an April Fool’s addition, this hits. Rare Class B content win for us!!!!!!

Amemiya and Masai 100% have some secret spot in Seisho that no one (not even the factulty) knows about.

It’s where Amemiya disappears to to write, and the two of them just sit there together a lot. They have a collection of random sentimental knickknacks there. If one of them is having a bad day they both meet up there without telling each other. They just know.

This is so real in my brain.
