It's hard to post regularly... Well here I come with a new Morfonica analysis! I hope someone still remembers me :_)

Today I wanna talk about the birthday illustrations! This post will be divided in two parts because of the image limit. This post is about Mashiro, Touko and Rui.

Birthday illustrations are really interesting because they represent the girls' personalities and the things they like as gifts from their bandmates. So, let's see what we've got here!

💙MASHIRO💙

Mashiro is a sweet and cute girl who has a dream to become someone significant. I like that she is blue-themed, because blue is accociated with calmness, kindness, softness and all such (at least I think so...) Her illustrations always fill me with joy. She collects stuffed animals and knits, such a SOFTIE... Look how happy she is on the third pic with all those plushies! She is their mom now 🥺

Her gift is a seal plushie, I wonder who gave it to her (mashirui brainrot activated) Also the same seal on the cupcake holds a sewing needle, so maybe it represents Mashiro herself? She is a baby seal your honor

There's also some interesting things in the big picture :

1. Mashiro follows a butterfly, gently holding her stage costume hat. So wholesome.

2. Why are there fish? I suppose it's either a dream or a metaphor, maybe a Shinkai Shoujo reference. Shinkai Shoujo is a perfect song for Mashiro, by the way, it's so sad...

3. There's a stone with the school motto in the background! It appeared in the beginning of Morfonica's BS1. I don't remember the words perfectly, but it said something like "Your radiance will light up your path". Tsukinomori literally has a motivational quote on a chunk of stone in their garden. So fancy.

❤️TOUKO❤️

Here goes our dorky fashion icon! Her gifts are all food, and I think it's from Nanami. Touko gave Nanami a bottle of spicy sauce for her own birthday, so it would be a fair exchange. Touko is having a time of her life eating fried noodles, and I'm proud of her.

There's not much to say about the first picture, but I like how it represents her two biggest passions – making clothes and playing guitar. Also a cute little detail – she's wearing a butterfly necklace. It would be so cute if she started wearing more butterfly accessories after joining the band! And I like those birthday glasses from the third pic! You go girl!!

💚RUI💚

I've already talked about Rui's 2020 birthday illustrations in this post about Rui slander. It's interesting too, so read that and come back here!

So, we see our beautiful beloved Rui-Rui being a little happier than usual. She's wearing glasses because she is smart and classy and everything

I don't like her pose from the second pic because it's strange, but here's a little detail: she is watching magical white flowers grow around her! You know what it reminds me of? BS2. Yeah, it came out later than the birthday pictures, but still it looks like a parallel... I'm probably reading too much into this lmao

There really isn't much to analyse anymore, I just love looking at her and thinking about her making friends and doing what she really likes instead of trying to reach some weird non-existent "perfection" that her parents created. She is my little meow meow and I will protect her with my life. >:[ 💚💚💚💚

Look!! I made this!!

I'm returning with a big project I've been working on for a week – the cover art for the fanfic! I didn't post anything on tublr for a long time because I had a depressive episode, but now I'm trying to make art again! I'm so happy about how this drawing turned out!

"flame of hope" is a psychological and romance drama about Morfonica – a musical band which has five special members: Mashiro Kurata, who always follows her dreams; Touko Kirigaya, who wants to share her awesomeness with the world; Nanami Hiromachi, who hides her true artistic self to make friends; Tsukushi Futaba, a reliable but underrated older sister; and Rui Yashio, whose family and past hides a few dark secrets. Where their love for music and each other will bring them? We'll see!

THIS IS SO ADORABLE!! Thank you so much for this gift ❤️

In case you're curious it says "Your spark will light up your path" in Russian :)

rui sketch for my friend

Rui is like: am I extra or are you basic

chu2: you really are taller than average huh

rui: is that so? i thought you were just short

chu2: w-what the hell!

rui: it's nothing to worry about. it's part of your individuality

chu2: i-i'm not worried about it!

chu2: .....by the way, what are you going to eat?

Aww this drawing is so adorable! I absolutely love the colors, Rui's face expression and that flower in her hair (^_^)

happy birthday nerd

tsukutouko is such an underrated pairing

I wrote a mashirui fic!

Well, it's not new, but I drew a new cover art for it, so I decided to post about it! It is least popular fic on my AO3, so maybe you'll give it a look!

It's a soulmate AU, where soulmates can meet each other in their dreams. After they meet in real life, this ability disappears.

I was scrolling my phone gallery to get some inspiration and found this adorable screenshot from that wolf show (i can't remember how it's called... Wolfwalkers?)

And I immediately thought of mashirui because these girls resemble my perception of Mashiro and Rui's appearances! I like this picture so much because it's so cute and comforting 🥺 you know when... When you... When... When lesbian... When you lesbian...

I wrote a mashirui fic!

It's a soulmate AU where all people have a print of their soulmate's first touch. Rui and Mashiro go the same middle school. Rui has a palm print on her cheek, Mashiro has one on her own palm.

These designs of young Mashiro and Rui are mine.

You know w-when... When... Y-you know... wwhenn... You k-know when mashirui... wh-hen t,, he, y,,,,... When,,,, mashirui

MORFONICA AS OFFICE QUOTES PART 2

flame of hope in a nutshell:

When Rui decided to join the band:

It finally happened! The full MV came out, so here I am with the 3rd part of my analysis and simping for Rui and Mashiro! Read the previous ones for full view~

The beginning was really dark and sad. We already saw Rui playing in the dark, but there's more about it – she's alone, the shadows absorb her and she closes her eyes. The violin disappears, and the butterfly flies away. Rui got lost.

What amazes me is that we really see her emotions on her face. I've waited so long to see her sadness and her smile, and my expectations were more than met!

These shots below don't go one after another, but it's a perfect comparison, isn't it? Mashiro's moon is full and shining, nothing obtains it's light.

Then goes the clip we've already seen, and after that the best part begins – RUI SINGS! WITH MASHIRO! SHE'S SMILING! Her smile and her voice didn't make my day, it makes my every day for two years, since Morfonica was announced. I just... I love them so much. Besides, this set being mashirui and this song with mashirui moments makes me, an ultimate mashirui shipper, wheeze and cry.

These pictures just blew me away. Rui has never, NEVER smiled like that before. I hoped she would one day, but I didn't realise how happy it would make me feel. And like, it's not just my fantasies and headcanons, which nobody cares about, it's canon. It's real. Rui, my precious baby, I love you with all my heart, I'm proud of you and happy for you making friends and letting yourself experience your emotions without repressing them.

Singing and making music together, becoming friends, becoming a family, they make this world bloom with bright colors, dreams, hopes and love. This warmth is what's really important.

The waiting is over, Mashiro.

The daybreak has arrived.

It's part 2 of my Morfonica MV's teaser review! If you haven't seen the first one, here it is!

So, back to the talk. I just love this moment where after this Mashiro shot we see Rui, so geniuinely surprised. She looks so innocent. She's nothing like that stiff cold strict image she presented to us at first, can you see it now? She is just a child. And I love that child.

The butterflies, which in my opinion represent the girls' efforts, hopes and dreams, form a new violin for Rui. It looks the same, but feels diffirent. Fun fact: butterfly is the symbol for rebirth.

But there's not only the violin. A new butterfly was born from the others. A small and fragile, but bright spark, which can lead Rui to a happier tomorrow, to a better place.

I can't wait to see the full version of this amazing MV and play this event! I hope you like my textposts, because I wanna make more! I have the idea of a post about their birthday illustrations in mind ;)

Update: The full MV came out today, so here is the 3rd part!

So, the 2nd chapter of the main Morfonica story trailer and a new MV teaser dropped, and I want to talk about it.

I will never shut up about how amazing the Morfonica MVs are. The graphics, the facial expressions, the colors, the lightning, the music... *chefs kiss*

As far as I know, Rui is going to quit the band in this story. Ow. That's bad. What confuses me is that there's no explanation WHY Rui wants to do so. It must be her parents, because she said once that "Instead of wasting time on things where you will not be successful, it is better to use time on things that you are confident in. These are the words of my parents, but I think so too" for a reason. I can't say much about the trailer itself, because there's just some japanese text abd the new cards. The new cards are beautiful, of course. When I saw Rui SMILING like THAT i almost fell from my bed, screaming. That's what you need to know about me as a person...

So, about the MV. Finally, fucking finally they showed us Rui's weaknesses and emotions. At the beginning she's playing in the dark void, alone and forgotten. Looks heartbreaking. Just. Just look at her face.

Then we see Tsukushi standing in a colorful pretty forest, but she looks worried. And then, all the light fades out.

But despite being in the dark, stuck and lost, they keep on singing. Sparkling bright butterflies appear, flying forward. The girls watch them fly by, and they look really proud of what they're doing.

And then Mashiro sends these butterflies to Rui with this gesture and face expression.

She's like a force of hope, love and light in this dark and scary place. And she gives all this light to Rui, to make another butterfly, which can fly up to the sky, when Rui can play her violin again. And I just think that's incredible.

Go for the part two >>>>

🦋MORFONICA AS OFFICE QUOTES🦋

At first I considered it quite a random combination, but on the second thought I realized that they really could get along!

They both are insecure inside, so they make up a confident socially acceptable image, which actually can prevent them from making true friends and developing as a person

Actually, a lot of bandori characters hide behind some masks – Kaoru, Nanami, Misaki, etc (I don't know all the characters perfectly). And I think it's really cool that CraftEgg raises topics such as sibling conflicts, insecurities, weaknesses and other emotional issues. The lack of these things always upset me in many idol fandoms – it's sad to see hundreds of plane, cliche characters without negative emotions and any inner conflicts. I understand the specifics of this genre, but I don't think any idol or rhytm game would be worse with some good character development. It's actually an advantage, because people like characters who they can empathize with. That's what i like in bandori. Maybe its characters aren't as deep and complex as they could be, but they don't have to. That's what the fanfiction is for.

what are your thoughts on.... kaoru nanami friendship its one of my fav brotps

IVE NEVER REALLY CONSIDERED IT BEFORE for some reason but i think its super good :]]]] i think kaoru would really help nanami be more confident in herself WAAA

@vertig0re called my post about Rui smart and I've been thinking about it all day.... Like.... T-thanks... I'm glad someone enjoyed my ramblings about my beloved child 🥺👉👈 Actually I have so much to say about the Morfonica girls but I don't know how to arrange my thoughts

I've sunk so low in the sea of sadness

That even opening my eyes is not worth the effort

🎵Morfonica – Shinkai Shoujo
