I haven't seen it, but from the plot summary I read, it's set between seasons 2 and 3 and may be filler.

I finished watching it like 10 days after my first post here and it changed my life.

I can't believe y'all dislike the As If! EP and 17 like ok they're not the best songs Sky has but they're all bops and honestly the Greg Kurstin and Bloodshy & Avant productions are incredible. She really could have it all, she was like a dark Britney which I was totally down for.

She didn't write Obsession and she's said in multiple interviews she was thrown into a studio one day with Ryan Tedder and they had her record it and she thought it was just gonna be a demo for someone else and then they made it the lead single for Cry Baby without her having any say in it. She said she didn't like it from the second she heard it because it didn't fit her style at all. I don't understand how she doesn't like 17 though. She wrote that one. She also co-wrote all of As If! except for Traces, which Neon has stated she wrote every word of despite the fact it isn't registered that way. Honestly if she had never done Obsession we probably would've gotten a lot more electropop from her back then. She said having to release that and promote it left a bad taste in her mouth and she felt like a sell-out.

I can't believe I'm reading the words "hate" and "Obsession", "17", and "As If" in the same sentence. Praying for everyone's ears

she likes One? taste detected!

most of her stuff pre-ghost is garbage and that’s the t

I can see why Sky might like ONE, and loathe 17 and Obsession. One actually has some interesting lyrical ideas and quite quirky production wise. The other 2 songs are pretty garbage edgy!!! teen nonsense which she clearly didn't relate to. 

Heard One for the first time the other day and it’s legit been on repeat

from Claire to just C, aka the speed of light
collaborating with Azealia Banks, Poppy, potentially Gaga (reach) 
Dating billionaire genius Elon Musk and debuting in the MET Gala
Is producing bops like crazy
Her recent look at the UFC fight was fucking stunning and usually when she dies her hair it means pop star mode!
Album has a v good amount of tracks
she can release whatever she wants now, she's gonna release the dark album first
 
 
I mean, miss boucher is giving the gays fucking iconic moments

i kept hearing abt loona n only listened further to them when i saw her feature in love4eva. stan loona! but seriously, such a cute collab.

so no one is gonna discuss how grimes is now a part of the loonaverse ...ok got it

That's what they want you to think   I won't spoil the story, but the series is typically thought of as a "deconstruction" of the magical girl genre because there's so much more to it. I really recommend it!

Have any of you guys seen Madoka? It's probably my favorite anime of all time. I was so floored by how deep and dark the story was underneath the pretty exterior

I started watching Sailor Moon a month ago. I'm nearly 30 episodes in and this has basically been my reaction:
 
 
 
I'm not surprised I liked it, but that I liked it so f•cking much.
In other news, my anime club's done for this semester, and I don't think we ended up finishing a single season of anything. 
 
 
By the way, does anyone have any favorite Watanabe show/movie you'd recommend?
 
I'd heard of Cowboy Bebop and The Animatrix before, and once I heard a couple of songs from the Samurai Champloo soundtrack and found out all three productions were directed by the same person, I knew I had to look into his work.

"A NOTE FROM THE DESK OF A NEWBORN ADULT
Tomorrow I turn 20, and it’s all I’ve been able to think about for days. I walk around the city, up by the park and by the health food store and down into the subway, this new age hanging in front of my eyes like two of those Mylar balloons that never come down. Can people see it, I wonder, that I’m about to cross over? On the subway I stare at boys I want to kiss and girls I want to hug. Do you see me?
I’m eating raspberries sitting up in bed, thinking about watching The Crown, and I probably should have written something nicer ages ago but my head is so full of lyrics and drums these days that this is all I can manage. But it feels very important I write to you, for some reason.
I was 16 when most of us met. Can you believe it? I laugh thinking about that me now - that glossy idiot god, princess of her childhood streets, handmade and ugly and sure of herself.
All my life I’ve been obsessed with adolescence, drunk on it. Even when I was little, I knew that teenagers sparkled. I knew they knew something children didn’t know, and adults ended up forgetting.
Since 13 I’ve spent my life building this giant teenage museum, mausoleum maybe, dutifully wolfishly writing every moment down, and repeating it all back like folklore. And now there isn’t any more of it. 
(!!!!!!!!!!!!!!) 
(*insert that emoji that looks like it's eating its own face with worry, and also the one with sunglasses, and maybe also the poo*)
And I know, I know! There’s different stuff. Stuff that’s just as good, maybe better, just in a different way. If I’m being real with myself, in some ways I stopped feeling like a teenager a while ago.
Sometime in the last year or so, part of me crossed over. For one thing, I made a very deliberate choice to withdraw for a little while from a public life. I haven’t had my hair or makeup done in a year, the free handbags dried up LONG ago, and the paparazzi at the airport are almost always for someone else. And let me tell you, as much as I love being full noise album cycle girl, it's been a motherfucking joy. (every once in a while I am recognised on the street - one of you breathlessly clutches my hand, shaking and speaking quickly, and I feel this SHOCK of love.)
I turned inwards to my friends, my family, towards this moment, so I could learn more about who I was, and so I could let this new project show itself to me. 
And oh my god, it was a colossal year! One for the ages. I maxed out every single emotion I have in the best possible way, the colours still aching behind my eyes like this weird blissful hangover.
My heart broke. I moved out of home and into the city and I made new friends and started to realize that no-one is just good or bad, that everyone is both. I started to discover in a profound, scary, blood-aching way who I was when I was alone, what I did when I did things only for myself. I was reckless and graceless and terrifying and tender. I threw sprawling parties and sat in restaurants until the early hours, learning what it’s like to be an adult, even talking like one sometimes, until I caught myself. All I wanted to do was dance. I whispered into ears and let my eyes blaze on high and for the first time I felt this intimate, empire-sized inner power.
And then I wrote a record about it, all of it, so much more than what I’ve written down here, and I’m in new york getting it done. And tomorrow, I’m not a kid any more, and more and more I'm realizing that the weirdness of those Mylar balloons is going to be okay.
Writing Pure Heroine was my way of enshrining our teenage glory, putting it up in lights forever so that part of me never dies, and this record - well, this one is about what comes next. 
I want nothing more than to spill my guts RIGHT NOW about the whole thing - I want you to see the album cover, pore over the lyrics (the best I’ve written in my life), touch the merch, experience the live show. I can hardly stop myself from typing out the name. I just need to keep working a while longer to make it as good as it can be. You'll have to hold on. The big day is not tomorrow, or even next month realistically, but soon. I know you understand.
Oh my god it's midnight now!!! I'm 20 fuck!!!!! And my perfect little brother Angelo is 15!! Happy birthday, kid. Sorry your sister is so weird and emotional in public all the time.
What i'm trying to say is: this is a special birthday. The party is about to start. I am about to show you the new world.
I love you forever.

So... it's almost super done???!!! she's coming

It's been a whole year since 'Magnets' :/
she stated that she's taking her time with this album because she needs to experience life and explore,
to give her something to write about,
to make it real + personal.
She's also working with Bleachers atm,
there are rumours she has collabed with The Weeknd and David Bowie.

You know what surprises me the most? This girl has N O L E A K S. There's ONE song we have two snippets from, and that's ALL we know and have.
 
 
It's so weird

The Bible is the best selling book of all time, but you did try!

Jesus didn't slay any charts
 
Guess the comparison still stands

And a albums quality isn't defined by it's commercial success I've never understood why people like artists by how many albums they sell

I just wanna be able to use this again

I LOVE the text she has written,
just goes to show that she is a real artist who puts her entire soul into her music,
and we need more creative minds like her in this world.
 
stop being cynical assholes.

sounds like she's been reading too much f scott fitzgerald

she's so incredible and talented, i literally couldn't believe my luck when i found out she was opening my endless summer show. she's really underrated in terms of what she represents for women in music...even with lana not being the most feminism-friendly singer, i feel like she and claire are alike in their insistence on making the music they want without a team of men controlling their every move, and not following the industry's "rules" for female artists.
