madoka magica

"my soul gem went dark god please forgive me
i keep making it worse not making it better
fill up my heart I’m swimming in human blood
holding my breath i keep swimming deeper"

i'm currently rewatching and damn this shit is so devastating the second time around. in theory im not that into anime but here i am... i am not getting that theme song out of my head any time soon

i think i indeed gravitate towards animation as a medium and find it more emotionally resonant than live action a lot of the time- i like the creative freedom and stylization opportunities and madoka is just great with that. im tempted to give myself the first witch's kiss as a tattoo but the last tattoo i gave myself did not go well (shitty miffy stick and poke i did while drunk) and lowkey convinced me to quit alcohol lmao.


anyway i just love a time travel/sci-fi element in fiction... i love how kyubey is written! but my favorite characters are probably kyoko and homura. you can probably tell from my emo sensibilities that im more of a homura than madoka D:
