hello, I saw your RCU post and I would like to say that Rondo does canonically take place in between the anime and the movie, since in one of the Nana scenes, she has a picture from the 100th Starlight play, indicating that the giraffe put her into a loop one more time or smth, and that's why the order of the revues is different

have a nice day!

?? i know Rondo takes place between the Anime series and Gekijouban, and as a "recap movie" its in the same timeline even. that's why there's a long print at the bottom of Rondo's photo that explicitly states its a personal theory that its possible to consider Rondo as a recap told in Nana's perspective, thus potentially Technically counting as an alternative of the anime

the giraffe also didnt place her in another loop, the giraffe and nana canonically do also just hang out in the magic basement (that is also canonically capable of remaking stages from memory) so its likely they actually just spent that entire time chatting about the starlight that had happened.

somewhat relatedly, the interviews/commentaries also confirm that the giraffe isnt even the moderator for the wild screen revues, its all just nana. which highly implies that nana is more than capable of moving the magical stage herself - its no longer even necessary for the giraffe to do anything for things to happen among them

#it matters very little whether people agree with the theory or not but by definition #it doesnt matter whether its intended by the authors or not as long as The Text does support it.#and there are atleast four instances that i can point to that lets me argue that Rondo is a ‟recap‟ that is in nana's bias rather than the #so. ykno. the argument that it CAN count as an alternate universe holds.#revue starlight is very good at misleading people to think that there is nothing happening #helped further by the fact that its a recap movie so people Expect things to get cut/rearranged #but once you pay attention to what changes have happened? to WHAT specifically got removed. to who says which line this time around.#you get to find a fun little surprise #anyways. its revstar! ur not meant to take it very literally or force everything to make sense #its a stageeeee its a storyyyyyy the question isnt 'what tf is happening' but 'does it pass the vibe check'#asks
