OK I HAVE SOME CONTENDERS FOR MAO SANRIO COLLAB!
Ok, I have a few ideas.... IVE NEVER met Gaokki from Caribadix before, and omg look how CUTE she is?!?!? A widdle pink wolf monster?? WAHHH!!!
Another contender bc of Mao's jellyfish motif, i was thinking a contender could be Shinkaizoku!! Little octopus!! So cute!!
THEN! We can't forget any kitty contenders, so there's Mia, the front of Beatcats.... pink kittie with little black accessories <3
If ANYONE would like to help me, like, tell me which of these three feels more Mao to you, from an outside perspective, I would greatly appreciate <3
I WAS going to originally say maybe Kuromi but... she doesn't fit.. honestly i think if ANYONE had Kuromi as a sanrio collab partner it would be Izzy @/ichikos bc they're more goth than Mao and obvi the big horn hair... <3
ADITIONALLY ... this is what I (AERO) looks like!! I look like Adorozatorumary!! LIKE!!! She's kitty, shes blue, she's goth, and she has my fucking birthmark!!! how is she not ME!!??

Also I'm sure this has already been discussed but do y'all think that the three-finger gold rings that Lanfear and Ishamael both wear are like, proto/scifi Great Serpent rings

in 2021 I wondered "what if each MC had their own style? or... EARRINGS...?" and at the end of 2022 I spiraled. hope you enjoy.
(I just need everyone to notice each MC has a corresponding number of beauty marks and piercings. no, multiple piercings in one section do not count shhhhh. some MCs share small similarities, can you spot them all? the little details of this brought me great joy!)
MC 1's style is playful, colourful and everything fun. MC 2's style is cool, coordinated and a little edgy. MC 3 wears barely any clothing because I gave up 🖤 and I imagine Toji coerces him into ever having any semblance of modesty 🖤 MC 4's style is soft, comfy and pastels. and MC 5, I imagine, is a bit of goth, a bit of academia, and very put together.
ps. if you made it this far, here are the MC 3 "rejects". I like him the most with no lip piercings, but I think he definitely needs them. can you believe I redrew his face 4 times and yet never gave him clothes.
pps. every MC is named "Nii Juu San (23)" in my head, EXCEPT him. HIS name is Boobina 🖤

I think it's fine if the girls exchange colors of patterns or used things that are the signature of the other, because in real life nobody use only the same color and pattern for every single day of their life, and friends don't really go like "I can't use hearts because thats Bloom things" or "I can't use yellow because that is Stella color", and besties love to have matching things
Yellow has never been Stella's color but
I'm not gonna bitch that Flora wears a heart once, or that Musa has flowers on her cheongsam
I'm bitching because all of them are wearing the exact same pattern and exact same color which feels out of character in a show that had fashion designers come on to give each of the girls their own unique style. It just feels insulting to the audience for me to believe that they'd all decide to do that
The other thing is, it's a cartoon. No one wears the exact same outfit every single day they do something and yetttt
In drawn visual media colors and symbols become a part of a perticualr characters identity. It's part of how you recognize things related to them in a visual media. Take the Believix wings for example, those beauties only work because each girl is associated with a perticualr symbol
I don't perticually care if a character isn't wearing their assigned colors in every outfit, I'm glad they don't. I do care if they're all wearing fucking pink, because that destroys the purpose of using color strategically in visual media
I like seeing Tecna in blue, Flora in orange and red, Aisha yellow ect ect. I have no problem with color swapping, but the symbol swapping is a bit different. They're symbols are in their wings to their fairy dust charms. It's just apart of the character designs at this point and ignoring all of them so they all look like something out of Bloom's closet is annoying as fuck
Finally, the matching thing :///
Matching pajamas we're they're all in pink and have hearts, matching disco outfits where the color purple returns with a vengance, the horrible matching band outfits that don't look like anything most of them would wear, the matching cafe outfits when pink bites back, the matching salior outfits, the flower princess thing, their swimsuits all being the exact same style bottoms, the god forsaken ballet outfits where all the outfits nearly have the same silhouette??
This isn't best friends matching anymore, this is the designers either getting lazy or deciding the Winx club are all the same girl and should dress to this fact accordingly
I mean just look at older seasons. Dance class? Horrible and tacky, but by God they weren't all wearing the same style of puffy skirt. S3 Disco had them all wearing completely different outfits that look nothing like eachother outside of a vauge 70s~60s theme. Almost like the designers were aware they're different people who don't dress the exact same. They're early seasons pajamas never matched, neither did their bathing suits. But now they do
And if your wondering why this bothers me so much it's because fashion informs the characters. If a character is wearing something you can assume they like it, which is a form a characterization. If they're all wearing the same thing in different colors, what does that say about their personalities?
