@otakugamergirlt.bsky.socialJust posted Chapter 3 and 4! Double!🎉
Mari gets a chance to spar with her self-proclaimed rival, Lara returns in time for the holidays and they exchange heartfelt gifts with each other that are irreplaceable. Enjoy!
@spiritusnox.bsky.social....Idle #SayoLara thought.
Lara's tongue being slashed never really amounted to all that much, huh?
Mari was more silenced than she was........
@otakugamergirlt.bsky.socialJust posted Chapter 2!🎉
This one takes us back a little to cover more about Lara and Lisa reconnecting after the incident, and confirms the state of the Merfolk Kingdom at that time. More LaraMari sweet stuff too! 😉
@alexi52.bsky.socialAlso despite my disappointment for the ending, I'd still highly recommend the show, it's beautiful and I can't stop thinking about it, I desperately need a sequel, OVA, or movie about Mari and Lara's reunion #sayonaralara #sayolara
@chaikachi.bsky.socialI know it was important for Lara to walk on her own in the finale. But i hope if her legs keep bothering her that she’ll get a mobility aid or two.

@mermims.bsky.socialI predicted it from the beginning, and then, for eleven weeks, I let myself dream anyway
It just hurts
@oneawkwardgeek.bsky.social
@deerinthelilies.bsky.socialOkay I'll add one thing to the discourse pile (#sayolara spoilers) Throughout the series there has been this visual language of people's eyes being hidden when they're not being honest about their emotions, for other people's sakes. You see it most strongly when Luca and Mari are talking about Lara
@deerinthelilies.bsky.socialI'm not going to dive into the discourse too deep, but I am going to say that I thought the ending of #sayolara was brilliantly executed and beautifully poignant and it hasn't budged it from its place as anime of the season for me
@wayward-leaves.bsky.socialThe final shot focusing on Mari’s face where she could’ve said the show’s title and having her not say anything because this is NOT goodbye for them. Something, something, this show rules, I’ll probably be more coherent about this later #sayolara
@wayward-leaves.bsky.socialMaybe the real true love was the self we found along the way #sayolara
@wayward-leaves.bsky.socialStarted sobbing like 5 minutes through the episode and continued to do so for the majority of it. Shit was insanely beautiful #sayolara #sayonaralara #goodbyelara
@dacquoisejardin.bsky.socialfor me, #SayoLara was good b/c it didn’t equate the idea of true love to just romance
in fact, tho the story touched upon that topic several times, it doesn’t really classify as a romance at all
true love is something more profound than that
it’s the way you choose to live, to be true to yourself
@oneawkwardgeek.bsky.socialJudging by the posts on my timeline, the #Sayolara finale is a real tear-jerker but stuck the landing. Oh well, I'm three episodes behind for now.
@therev28.bsky.socialGoodbye, Lara spoilers // #SayoLara
there's something so beautiful in the simple act of showing Lara wearing pants. for the entire series, she only wears dresses that obfuscate the fact that she has two legs (or at work, the apron does the same). But at the end, she can fully embrace having them
@glydeart.bsky.socialare we ready for the finale😭 i am most def not!
