How can I let go of the matter of saving my stepsister?

At this time, the animation is broadcasting the moment when Sayaka Miki recalls the regrets of the past and says ominous words in a self-blaming tone.

really!

Hearing those words, Qiong's brows furrowed, and her heart immediately sank heavily, and at the same time, the OP was also being played.

At the end of the previous episode, the heartwarming ED scene was replaced with a dark picture filled with despair. However, the OP of this episode seemed to mock the audience, still releasing the cute scene that was full of suspicion of fraud, but no one would believe it anymore.

With Sayaka Miki's ominous words lingering in his mind, he had no intention of savoring the scene. He even forgot the idea of ​​singing along to impress his brother, something he had learned a week ago but had not been able to perform.

Qiong was more nervous than most of the audience. She listened to the OP in a daze. Then, she saw the title of the fourth episode:

《Miracles and magic exist!》

Skirt~

Volume 180: Chapter Chapter . Magic and miracles exist!

The words of the title only flashed by for a moment, but as if possessed by a magic power, he recited them in his mind and subconsciously glanced at Sato Yu's face.

"..."

She moved her lips and stammered, but said nothing. Ultimately, she returned her gaze to the animation.

The death of senior student Tomoe Asami had a huge impact on the two girls who were only junior high school students. The heroic senior died in front of them, his body was turned into mud, and before such a scene, they prematurely experienced the cruelty that ordinary people may never experience in their entire lives.

So it is normal to break down and cry.

But in the end, the only one who cried out loud was the protagonist Kaname Madoka. She couldn't live her life as usual, and when she was alone with Miki Sayaka on the rooftop, she couldn't help crying out loud, letting her tears and vulnerability be revealed.

In contrast, Sayaka Miki, who also went through all that and is also an innocent junior high school girl, is much stronger. She goes to school normally and talks and laughs with her classmates. At this moment, she plays the role of a reliable friend who listens to Madoka's stories and comforts her.

The crying Madoka looks extremely pitiful, but compared to Madoka who can cry openly, Sayaka Miki, who is suppressing her emotions and trying to be strong, is more pitiful and worrying.

Covering his mouth and teeth, he watched, tears flashing in Qiong's eyes.

Worn down by the illness, she is no longer a sentimental girl, at least not most of the time. Logically speaking, such a depressing plot should not make her look so moved.

But looking at Sayaka Miki who was still able to smile in the animation and watching her various actions, Qiong couldn't help but be moved.

After all, she herself really looks like Sayaka Miki.

Some people were watching anime, some people were looking in the mirror. They had felt a sense of closeness before, and at this moment, Qiong felt that Sayaka Miki was her incarnation in the anime, in another world.

Bearing the pain, almost breaking down in the heart, but still forcing a smile, and using poor acting skills to deceive and comfort others...

At this moment, completely in the perspective of the audience, in the perspective of an observer, Qiong can more intuitively see how "hateful" such a character is.

What is she pretending to be? It's a lie that can be easily exposed, and everyone can easily see through the disguise and see her reluctance. In such a situation, she still forces herself to smile. Isn't it more distressing and heartbreaking?

In the past, how many times had I hurt my brother's heart by always smiling and comforting him?

Qiong didn't dare to imagine. As she watched the animation and thought about herself, she couldn't breathe smoothly.

Did your brother refer to her when portraying this character?

In fact, Sato Yu only uses the system and his memory that transcends this era to replicate successful animations from the past world one by one. However, such things cannot be described in words and others cannot imagine them. Therefore, the more you think about how he created such excellent animations, the more you can't help but explore where the inspiration for him to compose everything comes from.

For the role of Sayaka Miki, Qiong felt that she was the source of inspiration.

She is the fool who suffers from an almost impossible to cure disease but keeps smiling and moving herself, but makes the people who really care about her gradually become "Sayaka Miki".

If everyone could talk like Kaname Madoka, and cry and show their weakness like that, maybe they would feel more relaxed.

Distracting thoughts were eliminated step by step, and his mind sank into the animation. His spirit was placed on the character of Sayaka Miki. Tears suddenly rolled down his cheeks, and Qiong couldn't help but think so.

Then, quietly wiping away the tears that were falling silently, Qiong saw more animation developments.

After parting with Sayaka Miki, Madoka found the transfer student, the magical girl Homura Akemi, who had saved them both in the Witch's Secret Realm.

The two talked on the way home from school. Madoka continued to express her vulnerability, while Homura Akemi spoke cold words but unexpectedly showed humanity, and her character was further whitewashed. After going to the senior's house together, their relationship clearly warmed up.

With such a foreshadowing, it should be natural for Homura Akemi to join the main cast in the future... But let's still question it. We can no longer use common sense to speculate on the subsequent plot of this magical girl drama. It is reasonable that many plots that seem to be reasonable will most likely not happen.

Thinking and speculating on this aspect of the plot is a brain-burning thing. Maybe I can deduce it in my free time when I don't watch anime later, but for now, Qiong is more focused on the animation.

Sayaka Miki, the camera turns to her again. This girl went to the hospital to visit her childhood sweetheart Kyousuke Ojo, but was treated in an infuriating way.

Kamijou Kyousuke took his anger out on the girl who had always encouraged him and visited him every day with young love in her heart.

Even though this is reasonable and logical from the perspective of the plot, because he was told that he could no longer play the violin and got angry at the girl who had always comforted him...

It was just as despicable and infuriating as when she was crying and yelling at her brother in front of the P8 Animation Company, demanding and threatening him to give up animation and return home to accompany her for the last time.

Now recalling the past, she was so selfish and clumsy, letting her heart do something that hurt her brother deeply. She shouldn't have...

No, if you think this way, wouldn't you be back to suppressing your inner grief, which would only make it more painful?

Was it right for her to cry to her brother at that time?

...Nothing was right at all, for her who had no hope of survival at that time.

No matter what, her existence at that time would only cause sadness and despair.

But no matter what, her brother who loves her will never give up any hope, just like Sayaka Miki in the animation.

[It exists! Miracles and magic exist! ]

At this moment, Qiong felt that Sayaka Miki was the incarnation of her brother in the animation. Facing her who was almost impossible to survive, her brother also shouted at her so firmly at that time -

[Yes! I will definitely cure Qiong! ]

He didn't say he was a doctor, but he said that he would cure her, and his tone was still so confident.

As a result, her health miraculously improved after that, her condition miraculously improved, her cancer retreated from stage III to stage II, she received international assistance, got the opportunity to be injected with special anti-cancer drugs, and her brain tumor continued to shrink...

A miracle really happened to her. Was it magic?

Qiong turned her head and looked directly at Sato Yu's profile, which had become increasingly mature and resolute in the past two years.

If someone called for a miracle, if someone made a wish and performed magic, that person must be my brother.

But how does he perform magic?

After telling her with certainty that she would recover, he didn't spend much time with her. Instead, he resolutely devoted most of his time to animation production.

He said that he wanted to fulfill their promise to each other before she died and make the best animation for her, but he ignored her and caused her more trauma. For a long time, she complained about herself and felt all kinds of pain and loneliness.

It is inevitable and unquestionable that my brother truly loves her. If he truly loves her, would he really do such a stupid thing?

It makes her feel that animation is more important to him than her sickly sister...

So strange, so strange, so strange!

Besides, if we are talking about fulfilling the promise between us, wouldn't the successful production of Fate/Zero have already fulfilled it? Shouldn't we put the animation aside for the time being?

But in the end, after only spending one more day with her, her brother once again plunged into the intense animation production and has been working like a masochist ever since.

Contrary to his words, his actions put animation more important than her recovery.

Or maybe, in fact, to her brother, animation is as important as her recovery?

In fact, her condition really improved, and it suddenly improved when the animation of Sister Not Sister was finished and the last episode received great reviews. After that, her condition became better after each successful animation production...

I fell silent and watched the subsequent plot in silence, seeing Madoka being pulled into the witch's barrier and almost torn to pieces, seeing Miki Sayaka save the situation at the critical moment, and watching until the ED was released. Qiong kept clutching the hem of her clothes, squeezing them so hard that her knuckles turned white.

“What do you think of this episode?”

The animation is actually quite good, and Sato Yuu himself should also feel that it is quite good, and should be very proud of it. With a smile on his face, he asked Qiong about his feelings after watching the animation.

Great, my brother's animation is great! He was expecting Qiong to answer like this.

But in the end, he made a mistake.

Compared to the quality of the animation, after watching the animation, Qiong has more things that concern her deep in her heart and deeper questions and words that are stuck in her throat.

He stretched out his hand but hesitated, then grabbed the hem of Sato Yu's clothes tightly. Qiong raised his head, the corners of his lips curled up into a smile, but he looked like he was crying.

"Hey, brother, miracles and magic do exist, right?"

...

ps: I earned 4,000 blades and a box myself, so these are not counted. So as of now, the blades are probably enough for one update, the monthly tickets are enough for two updates, and the recommendation tickets are enough for one update, so I owe four updates in total.

I'll sleep in, then get up and start writing, and I'll start updating!

Volume 181: Chapter Chapter . Feeling Fear

"Of course it exists!"

There is a special system hidden in his body, so Sato You naturally believes that so-called magic and miracles really exist.

Without thinking too much, he answered immediately, his voice was so clear and confident, just like Sayaka Miki in the animation, his eyes were shining and bright.

Miki Sayaka was transferred because she met Yanxi①Group: 837783853

She is like that, what about Sato Yu?

Qiong did not misunderstand Sato Yu's answer at this moment.

Miracles are happening to her. Ever since her brother escaped from the company and then changed his mind and returned to produce the animation again, she has been surrounded by the light of miracles.

She had always been following her brother's career as an artist, so how could she not know his ability? The first few erotic pictures she saw in the first and second studios of Sisters Not Sisters were already a display of his best level as a latecomer.

The extremely beautiful pictures in the back, the painting speed that is several times faster than that of ordinary people, and the amazing planning ideas one after another...

No matter how you think about it, those are not areas that my brother can reach with his own strength.

Something strange must have happened to him, and something strange must have happened to me.

Her limbs were weak, she vomited blood, she lost her sense of taste, and pain spread all over her body. At that time, she must have had one foot in the underworld, but in the end, she came back to life like in the animation "Sister, Not Sister"...

Now, although it is bizarre, it is the most believable thing - her brother made a wish and brought a miracle to her.

"What wish did your brother make at that time?"

Her eyebrows were slightly raised and a sly smile appeared on her face. Qiong deliberately said serious words in a joking tone.

"Brother can't become a magical girl."

Laughing, Sato Yu poked the soft tip of Qiong's nose, causing her to giggle.

"Obviously, it's a male succubus."

"Even a succubus can't bring about miracles."

"Isn't my current health a miracle brought about by my brother?"

"..."

Unsure whether answering at this moment would be considered crossing the line and whether it would trigger the system's self-destruct mechanism, Sato You did not dare to answer.

The originally smooth conversation was interrupted, but Qiong did not make a fuss. She still smiled and pretended not to notice anything and continued talking to herself.

"I was able to recover little by little because of watching my brother's animations. It must be because of my brother's animations that I was able to have hope of living. Thank you for your hard work, brother."

"I hope you can recover."

He did not thank the progress of medicine, nor did he acknowledge the efforts made by doctors and nurses. He just said, "I hope you can recover."

Such an answer almost acknowledging that everything was indeed the result of the animation, and the result of his hard work day and night in making the animation. All of a sudden, even the last trace of doubt in Qiong's heart disappeared.

Tears were streaming down her eyes, but she didn't let her brother see them. She threw herself into his arms and hummed heavily.

"Brother, you are the one. Don't work too hard."

.............

After watching one episode of the animation, I saw that the atmosphere between the brother and sister was harmonious. Although they had different insights, in short, Qiong Ming understood and Sato You was happy, so both of them were happy.

But it is an iron rule that people in this world do not share the same feelings. Although the two brothers and sisters are happy, the audience who have watched the animation are heartbroken.

In terms of rhythm, the fourth episode is not very compact, and there is no raging development. It just further shapes the characters and lays the groundwork for the plot, which disappoints the audience who had previously speculated that this episode would continue to be a big deal.

However, there are not many negative reviews.

With the unexpected surprise in the third episode, the story of "Puella Magi Madoka Magica" has been completely revitalized. The audience has accepted this unconventional story about a magical girl and is looking forward to its subsequent development.

Therefore, even if there are not many explosive moments, the audience still sincerely hopes that the long "seven years" of a week will pass quickly, and they are ready to watch it in front of the TV at every hour.

How could I regret it?

The slightly ominous title, which might very well backfire, made people feel terrified, and the audience watched the fifth episode with trepidation.

After making a wish to heal Kamijo Kyousuke, Sayaka Miki transformed into a magical girl. She was able to inherit her senior's will to protect the town and cheer up the boy she liked. She smiled sincerely again. The bright colors of the picture were full of laughter and joy. Everything seemed to be developing well...
