#chise hatori × elias ainsworth

Well, at first I wanted to continue the theme of pre-Halloween mood and give Chise some gloomy holiday clothes. Then I suggested that it would be nice for her to cosplay Belle from Disney... but I didn't understand the concept or my desire, so I just did it. well, it's kind of a cute idea, right? heh

The Ancient Magus' Bride [2017]

[robinmage]

absolutely no one: me: The Ancient Magus Bride isn't really a "romance" the way most people tend to think. Despite its few moments, one of, if not, the main focus of the series is about how the qualities of interpersonal relationships differ vastly between each individual. Your relationship with one friend may function incredibly differently from another friend, because the unique combination of those circumstances and personalities will affect how you coexist with one another and define each others' "roles" in your lives. For Elias and Chise, the growth of their relationship is also parallel to their growth as people. The way they met had a very big impact on how they viewed and treated each other in the beginning of the series. Chise, being completely alone and in a very vulnerable position and simply not caring because she had already given up on her life, and Elias buying taking her in because of her innate magical ability. As Elias is nonhuman and unable to relate to the human experience and human emotions, we later learn that one of his motivations for acquiring a human companion was because he wanted to understand these emotions more and feel closer to humanity. The circumstances of their meeting is explicitly mentioned, by a few characters, to be a generally fucked up thing to do, and one of the core aspects of Chise's early character development was how not to become complacent with relying on Elias so much. Chise is gradually learning how to value herself, separately from Elias, with the help of the people she has met. Elias himself struggles with his lack of emotional experience, occasionally lashing out when he feels new, strong emotions that he doesn't know how to react to or control. Put together, they are both still very immature characters and absolutely not ready or capable to commit themselves to any type of romantic relationship. Instead, the series focuses on the complexities of this human-nonhuman companionship, how their relationship can't solely be defined by human expectations and labels, and how to navigate the ever-changing state of interpersonal relationships combined with the ever-changing state of personal development. A lot of it comes from Chise herself, realizing that she not only wants to live but also wants to value herself as a person more than what she can selflessly give away to others. There are many people who genuinely care for her and are actively trying to help her see her own worth. Through these experiences and these connections that she forms with these characters is what gives her the strength to grow. The series is commonly tagged as a romance, though the elements of the genre are miniscule and not anywhere near as relevant as the main themes of learning how to love others, learning how to love the world around you, and most importantly-- learning how to love yourself.

I know Halloween is still over a month away, but I'll be so busy in October with my stupid school stuff and I'm so excited to be feeling the holiday spirit right now that I couldn't resist this spooky fall charm. I really love Halloween!!

I drew this thing because in the first part of the second season they briefly mentioned Halloween (and yes, I was so upset that we were not shown a party in honor of this wonderful holiday) ;; I'm just a fan of this kind of crap. And for some reason, in my head this pumpkin joke sounded a little funnier than it actually was. My humor is flat and poor,//lol, I don’t mind/, I needed this cute nonsense. I'm looking forward to this damn holiday
