Omnicrom posted:We don't really know much about Sakiko given the perspective of the show, but from what we see of her it doesn't seem like she blew off Crychic casually or even necessarily by her own choice. Right at the cold open of the series she shows up to rehearsal after being missing for a day, soaking wet to break up the band. That is not normal behavior. Later when we learn her history with Tomori we learn she wanted to start the band because she met Tomori, who she knew full well wasn't some famous person. She also herself scouted out Taki and Soyo so if them "not being famous enough" was the problem it wasn't when she started Crychic. I also point out that in episode 7 it looked like she was having a genuine emotional breakdown after MyGO played her old song, whatever happened that wound is still way more raw than she lets it show.  there's also a detail that i dont think is directly pointed out, or if it is it's only in passing. mutsumi and soyo go to a very fancy, seemingly catholic, rich girls' school (soyo's even surprised when her mother wants to send her there).  here's mutsumi in the uniform. sakiko goes to the same school as anon and tomori, but what uniform is she wearing in the flashbacks?  so my working theory is that sakiko's family used to be rich but lost all their money somehow. given the 'changing circumstances' angle for a lot of the characters (anon moving to the uk and back, soyo's family situation, rana's grandma retiring) itd track.

That's my guess too. I'm curious if the next season showcases black mirrors of MyGO: [Soyo: poor to rich, Sakiko rich to poor; Anon: friendly popularity chaser, Nyamu: backstabbing popularity chaser; Tomori: overcomes communication problems to lift up her band, Mitsumi: succumbs to communication problems and gets taken advantage of by her band; etc.] But I don't know this franchise, that's probably too dark. Would you whale on gacha for heels?

It's a band based on Visual Kei too so having them appear to be heels at the start is not a bad hook (especially since given the bits we've seen probably most aren't...except Nyamu who already is my favorite )

I'm delighted to have read it, thank you. We have to assume 13 is a Sakiko PoV episode, right? Given the end of that interview and the fact that it's really the only question set up (from the first minute of the show!) that hasn't been answered.

Episode 13 first half really was just a victory lap for MyGO, with the actual meat of the episode landing in the second half with tying up Sakiko's motivations and the start of Ave Mujica. The franchise going as dark as a drunkard father is something new. And from that, something to look forward to in the future... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e4fgMLZxRK4

Great stuff. Over a span of thirteen episodes we got at least two excellent ones, and possibly one masterpiece of anime. It gets under my skin a little that the Tomori - Sakiko loop STILL hasn't been closed, but fine, I guess it's a hook into the next season. I suppose if the theme of MyGO!!!!! was "hey maybe you should talk to people", Ave Mujica's might be something like, "hey maybe you should rely on people." Anyway, kudos to the team that made this. I was totally unfamiliar with this franchise but now I'm definitely watching the next season and might pick up the game too... Agronox fucked around with this message at 17:38 on Sep 14, 2023 |

the decision to end mygo with 15 minutes of sakiko's corporate, soulless, metaphor of a band instead of anon + tomori's final conversation or whatever is so gutsy and i love it. sakiko was such a compelling character to me despite her minimal screen time and it's cool that this has just been festering the entire time in the background. i'm kind of happy i ended up watching episode 12 + 13 back to back, because they work pretty well as companion pieces. the contrast between tomori's band introductions (which might end up as the most endearing moment in the entire show to me) and the ave mujica introduction is incredible.

i think what i like the most about the ending is how ave mujica appropriates most of the language and themes of mygo (being lost, the fear of being inhuman or other, finding solace in building on individual moments), just twisted through the lens of a creepy theatre performance.   i thought i was going to finish these two episodes and be mostly content with the ending, but i really want to see where this next season goes from here.

They really couldn't give Taki any sort of last heart to heart with Tomori like Anon and Soyo got? Or... let her do anything at all?

I appreciate Ave Mujica's full blown Visual Kei act even if the song felt like a mid tier Roselia song Can't wait for their season especially since their performance gave big Revue Starlight anime vibes. And I don't think it's a coincidence

Also it's amazing that it looks like Sakiko is mirror image Soyo - Soyo was put into an awkward situation and had to work through it cause her mothers hard work led to a better situation. Sakiko has been put into a pretty awful situation and has to work through it cause it looks like her bad dad messed everything up

I imagine Taki's plot will be season 2 stuff given we know she has issues with her sister but we don't even see her. That said Taki x Tomori shippers ought to know what they signed up for.

Though Sakiko is pretty much just telling them what to do. I expect lots of cat herding ahead. Edit: thinking about it, it's maybe significant that Taki's sister goes to the posh school and Taki does not. Fangz fucked around with this message at 08:34 on Sep 15, 2023 |

Soyo getting the final scene with Tomori also makes sense narratively as it's to reinforce that the breakup of Crychic still isn't resolved and is still gonna be a major thread in Avemujica. Soyo pretty much says it at the end even!

I took Soyo's scene and her line about never forgetting CRYCHIC as more of an acceptance that it's fine to not forget the good times that had happened then, but also move on. Which is what Tomori seemed to agree with.

Which is what Tomori seemed to agree with. i doubt it'll end with anything as simple as everyone is friends now yaaay but tomori/soyo/taki have clearly found some peace with what happened but sakiko (and probably mutsumi) dont seem to have. so that plot thread will probably continue into ave mujica.

spent the night catching up with the anime. poo poo's loving incredible, i teared up at ep 10. i'm so loving in for ave mujica's cheeseball ghost theatrical horseshit combined with their 70s hooks in the songwriting with the organs and deep purple-esque riffs. it's so loving dorky in the most perfect way imaginable and they've given out great hooks for more drama. think their song was my favorite of the series.

Fell off of Bandori for a number of years even if I try and keep up with the new songs, and I finally got around to watching this last week. Was not expecting a Bandori anime to go this (relatively) dark, goddamn.
