i swear im alive (I wish I wasn't after drawing this) hah
drew this based of the part in the leroux novel where erik plays desomonda on the harp for christine until she falls asleep (thank @or-what-you-will for the idea)
(also this was initially drawn with christine, uh, not in a chemise so that's a fun fact)

was actually thinking about the nature of daisuke's curse again and the school morning after riku accidentally discovers that dark == daisuke and gets told by riku that they 'can't be together' because they'll be separated is like....
this paneling is gorgeous (sugisaki's art is always i always say this) but to emphasize dark's, or rather, the fallen angel's black wings as daisuke's essentially lamenting the fact that 'not everyone's wishes can come true' and that he 'still likes riku.' smth smth the hikari and their loveless lives VS the niwa and their insane erik phantomopera circumstances of tragic loves and loves that can't Be, yet still always loving and loving and loving Despite Everything

Current thoughts on Hirogaru Sky PreCure
Alrighty since we're almost done with Hirogaru Sky PreCure with 5 episodes left and about to go into the 2024 season, I should probably talk about my current thoughts about it before we get to the finale.
Pros:
-The main cast is definitely the main highlight of the show. The characters bounce off each other very well with some great dynamics and interactions. Mashiro/Cure Prism and Ageha/Cure Butterfly are both my favorites; I loved Mashiro's development and I related a lot to her writer struggles (ie. writer's block) as someone who writes a lot of papers in college, and Ageha is a very fun character and I loved her every time she appeared on screen. I don't want to say goodbye to them when the show ends ;__; (Sora/Cure Sky and Tsubasa/Cure Wing are both great too)
-The Cure designs are great (especially Prism, who has one of my favorite designs in the franchise). Now I hope Atsushi Saito does another season in a few years because his style is too good
-The transformations are some of the best in the franchise (my favorite is Butterfly's, Yuu Yoshiyama my beloved)
Cons:
-I have like plenty of issues with Elle/Majesty (and not just because she's a baby since I'm not a huge fan of babies lmao) but mostly about her development when she became a Cure. It's strange that they had her regressing back into a baby instead of permanently becoming a teenager (aka the Ha-chan route) and it hinders her development. Being a baby and such who rarely talks 90% of the time, she still gets very few lines even as Majesty. Honestly she might be sandwiched between both Earth & La Mer for my least favorite midseason Cures, which is a shame because her design is great :/
-The lack of focus on the villains. I do understand the writers' motive to have the show be viewed through the Cures' viewpoints that we don't know the villains' true purpose for kidnapping Elle and their war with Skyland but it sometimes hurts the show more. Also good god Skearhead 💀
-Some lack of worldbuilding with Skyland. but I expect a heavy lore drop near the end (but hopefully not very rushed/last minute like Tropical Rouge)
Anyway, even with some of its glaring flaws and may not be the best especially for an anniversary season, I enjoy it a lot and it's still a top 10 season for me, 8.5/10. Really hoping that they end on a high note with the finale 🙏🏻
