Princess Tutu is the best anime because where else is a joke about an electric eel a major piece of foreshadowing

I liked this meme so much I decided to paint it. Who framed Roger Rabbit style breaking bad tutu crossover. You see it.
[ID: the “I think we’re gonna have to kill this guy meme” with Jesse pinkman and princess tutu. Jesse is painted in a more portrait like semi realistic style while Tutu is cartoony, resembling her on model appearance from the show. Jesse says “yo I think we’re gonna have to kill this guy Princess Tutu” with his hand on Tutu’s shoulder, and Tutu responds “damn.” End ID]

how did it only just occur to me that pique and lillie probably aren’t actually Like That, but drosselmeyer influenced them so they would constantly be.. basically emotionally toying with duck and making her already poor self-worth plummet deeper. like they’re so perfectly attuned to this shallow comedy routine of denying duck her personhood and literally treating her as a fictional object of amusement, who only exists to rise up against all odds then fail compellingly as drosselmeyer’s perfect little ingenue. but ironically they’ve been gutted of their own autonomy too, warped to fit the story’s needs. that’s pretty fucked up is all i’m saying.

I saw these beautiful fanarts that @/fyuuu_14 on Twitter made of a crossover of Princess Tutu with (Genshin) Xiaolumi, so I had to go binge rewatch the anime, then draw my own fanart inspired by it lol
Their fanarts were much better than my doodle, but I just couldn’t resist taking inspiration- the idea was rotting my brain for the past four days..
Uh anyway, you should go watch princess tutu if you like magical girl type stuff! It’s a fun time!

Edel dying and becoming Uzura is one of the most powerful things to me in Princess Tutu to me. She is a great parallel to Mytho. Mytho loses his emotions. He lives without them, and he has to learn how to deal with them again when he get's them back. Edel never had feelings. She never got to learn. She had to be reborn to properly learn her emotions. Some day I want to do a breakdown of this because Edel and Uzura are the same but different. I think Uzura joining Drosselmeyer at the end is also really important. She fulfills the same job as Edel, but now she is her own person. Unlike Edel who was always told she is a puppet without emotions and had come to "pretend" to have emotions, Uzura is a girl with emotions first and informed she's a puppet second. I truly believe Edel had emotions because she has no logical reason to do what she did if she didn't care for the main cast. She even died expressing a want to see Mytho and Princess Tutu dance together. Wanting something is an emotion even if Edel says it is all pretend. I believe Edel was compartmentalizing her feelings because of her identity as "just a puppet." Uzura is a second chance. Uzura gets to feel freely. Being a puppet isn't something to hold her back. She loves. She's curious. She's a person.
As someone who has highly compartmentalized their emotions to the point where they have trouble identifying that they have emotions, Edel and Uzura are so special to me. When I have tried to start feeling again, I often get called childish and told I'm overreacting. This has led me to stop trying to feel and go back to compartmentalizing. I think this is why Edel had to die for Uzura to get to feel. Because only a child is allowed to deconstruct emotion like that. I love the little wooden dolls. They are everything to me.

OMG you guys I JUST realized that, all the students shown as humanoid animals in the school? Are just normal people whose perceptions have just been changed by the town that "exists between reality and fiction".
Because I totally missed the line from the ballet troupe about how their troupe leader wasn't always an electric eel, they didn't recall him BEING an electric eel, but also didn't seem to care that much?
But that just raises MORE questions. Why THOSE people, THOSE animals...? And I suppose it doesn't work in reverse, perceiving animals as humans, otherwise the whole giving Duck a pendant to become a girl transformation thing wouldn't be necessary?
...Unless it DOES, because those ARE real animals, and it's just the town that makes them seem humanoid and able to speak human language? And the pendant makes her transformation possible from a duck into an actual perceived human rather than a humanoid duck??
