Haha, awesome! I already saw/commented on this one DA, so I won't retread anything I said there. I still have yet to watch this show...
But yeah...there is something that's fun about seeing an incredibly confident woman of size in a teensy magical girl outfit. It's like...conventional thought says that she should be ashamed, ASHAMED, to go parading around in that outfit with that figure! But she's all 'eh, don't bother me with details like that, I'm busy fighting monsters.' <3 (Thus proving that making an outfit work is all about attitude, cause dang, she is rocking it.) I love the 'scar' looking design on her hip. Outfit damage, or reflective of an actual scar on her hip?
I guess Jockey is sometimes the most reluctant to fight at times? But that has more to do with the way that she sees the world...if she stays true to her L4D characterization, then she'd see the whole thing as some big game that she doesn't fully understand even while fully perceiving the mechanics; and she's the only one who sees it that way. I don't know what lead up to it exactly, but I guess I could see her wishing for everyone to be alive and happy, or wishing that the whole cycle would just end. (Thinking aloud, probably not making sense.) Or any of the proposed male witches, though Kamesan's would work best.
ETA: Oh, forgot to add something: I do think that Hunter could have the "eats constantly" characterization, because I see her as the sort of person who is so athletic, and so active that she is just always a bit hungry. Bouncing off of buildings uses a lot of energy, y'know.
Haha it's kinda interesting. IT DIDN'T BLOW ME AWAY OR ANYTHING perhaps my standards for shocking gore are too high
haha that's not really supposed to be a scar so much but like a ribbon i think that goes around mami's corset bottom? I WAS PHONING IT ON THAT, THAT'S WHAT I GET
She can be reluctant to fight, that's true! But Madoka's whole thing is that she spends the series angsting about how everyone else is fighting and being brave and all she does is cry and be useless and passive which doesn't fit Jockey so much in my mind. :O BUT WITH TWEAKING I GUESS I COULD SEE IT Could totally see her wishing that the cycle would end and such, haha. Especially once she finds out what happens to Puella Magi.
ACTUALLY THAT'S TRUE, SHE COULD DO THE EATING THING NOW THAT YOU MENTION IT
Oh, oh, I see it now! It was the lacy edge that threw me.
True...it's not an exact one to one correlation. Jockey's thing is more her disconnected state/inability to cope with reality. STILL, OF THE MAIN FOUR, SHE IS PROBABLY THE ONE EASIEST TO ADAPT INTO SOMETHING APPROACHING THE CORRECT ROLE. But none of the ladies are really quite...passive enough, I guess? Unless you count Mousey. It amuses me on some weird level that I can more readily think of guys who fit this role than girls. ...and if I were at all confident in my ability to draw magical girl gear, this would probably lead to me fitting Sha with a mini-skirt. Because, really, me, pass up a chance to make my OCs look silly?
YEAH THAT'S TRUE she is kind of flexible. :O But yeah none of them really have that same passiveness that sort of saves Madoka through a lot of it, haha. EXCEPT MOUSEY OH DANG THAT WOULD WORK (although if Smoker is Homura then....????)
Hahaha LADIES GET THINGS DONE altho there is a twinge at the idea of the savior of the magic girls/universe being a dude BUT MOSTLY I JUST THINK THE OUTFITS WOULD BE HILARIOUS
Oh, dang, hadn't even thought about the guy being savior in a girls universe angle...I was just thinking about the passive/self loathing characterization. Ok, so it was also because the idea of putting one of them in the required uniform made me laugh. I AM WEAK. OK, THEN, TWEAKED JOCKEY OR MOUSEY IT IS, THEN. (...ok, had to look up who Homura was...oh dear. Ummm...ok, gotta rethink this...)
Haha THE THING IS HE DOES FIT THE PASSIVE/SELF-LOATHING PART PERFECTLY and picturing him in the outfit is hilarious STILL SOME TRICKY UNDERTONES THOUGH
hahahaha AND MOUSEY WOULD BE PERFECT FOR IT TOO it just makes Homura kind of a pain to identify. The tricky thing about Madoka is that it all kind of centers around one person and the ladies all work together as a team. :O THERE IS NO ONE SUPER IMPORTANT PERSON REALLY
