y'know nothing speaks louder to the amount of money going around in the 2000s anime boom than the fact that 2006 had three yuri anime's airing, two of which were 26 episodes, and all three of them got ps2 games.
Kashimashi and Strawberry Panic both got visual novels, and that's pretty standard as far as anime licenced games goes, it's still a lot of work to make but manageable under a certain time-frame and budget.
But Simoun? Simoun got a strategy RPG! which makes sense for the content of the show itself, it's a war story (with a lot of trauma, gender, and girl kissing thrown together) but how you know people were getting stupid with money is that Simoun... Was Not Even That Popular??? Like, even in yuri circles, which are niche themselves, it's not super well known!! you're way more likely to have heard of, and possibly watched, Strawberry Panic than you have Simoun. And listen, I say this as a Simoun apologist who has a soft spot for the series but it's truly wild that it 1. got a game at all 2. was not just a visual novel.
There isn't even a dedicated witch from mercury game on the horizon but the mildly well known within to yuri watcher anime Simoun has one?? honestly? bring back the this energy of 3 out of 5 licenced games, no more gacha tie-ins or games as a service, just games that are Totally Fine overall but fun to fans of a series.

thinking about it, what if Simoun's plan did succeed? So what, now the wedding is bombed. The friars are dead, the government in shambles, and the richest reduced to nothing. What then?
Basilio seemed horrified of even letting them die in the first place, would have he even rallied the people to Tales' location or would he have just fled away?
And even if Basilio had succeeded, what was Ibarra's plans for the new country? All he talked about was getting revenge on those who wronged him, never about anyway to change it. He talked about watering the land with their blood but never bothered to mention what seeds he would plan.

My Filipino teacher congratulated me on doing a little character study of Basilio from Chapter 34 and previous chapters, She was happy that I not only added Basilio’s conflicts but also something I called the “Basilio-Crisostomo-Simoun Parallel Pipeline” :3
Anyway I loved how Rizal wrote the mechanism of the bomb and the planned explosion during the wedding that I asked if Rizal was even allowed to buy lamps after the publication of El Fili BECAUSE GE WAS INSANE 🤯🤯🤯
