I love she doesn't have a transformation sequence but then she has an elaborate de-transformation sequence. 🤣 peak

I like how you made her look sad in her magic girl clothes, while jumping in joy on her regular clothes, in another animes it's the reverse💜

I adore how she feels more like herself as a human and is less out there and happy and confident as a magical girl. It’s such an interesting approach.

I think it's such a good plot to have a magical girl who literally doesn't want to be one and hates it💜

One of my favorite little details is her hair. She dyed is blonde to fit in with what I can assume was her magical girl team. But now that she's left, she's not trying to fit in with them so she's letting it return to its original color.

i love how you make her normal design joyful with a nice, fluid pose to go with it, and her magical girl design more upset and stiff to reference how she really feels.

I love how she looks happy as the schoolgirl but sad in her princess form

random thought: imagine how cool an animated show in mari’s style would be 💜

I LOVE the sullen expression of Aika as a magical girl versus how happy she is to be just a regular girl. I really hope we get a full series and get to explore what her life was like as a magical girl!

Theres a really cool comic i also found about a magical girl’s whole team dying and kind of showing another alternate side of magical girl stories. Really fun
