KYOKO SAKURA!!! and other cool anime girls

I've really come to love Kyoko from Madoka Magica, I didn't have a favorite among the Holy Quintet but it's definitely become Kyoko. Probably because she reminds me a lot of Micolash - it's the smoothest way of letting Micolash go lol. I got this awesome print of her recently and I plan to put it on my wall once I get a proper frame for it. I plan to get more merch of her from small artists so definitely link any cool merch you've seen of her in the comments. I'm especially looking at jewelry, cuz I'm considering working with her in my pop culture pagan practices (I've stopped working with Homucifer and Madokami) - though I might just make my own devotional jewelry instead. I'm also searching high and low for pixel art/perler bead patterns of her because I want to cross stitch a keychain of her soooo badly (I saw the one cross stitch pattern of Kyoko on Etsy, I might grab it).

After being an otaku for... 7 years (?), I think I've found my type in anime girls: tall tough outcast girls, who possibly also smack down (and by "type" I mean anime girls I'd love to be friends with, I'm not attracted to women). Makoto Kino, Yukari Kotozume, Nao Midorikawa, Sayaka Kanamori... I also gravitate towards occult girls like Sucy Manbavaran, Rei Hino, Fuura Suzu. Birds of a feather.

I haven't really spent time in the Madoka fanspace online, so maybe I'll finally dive into that. I've seen a few very good video and essay dissections of Madoka Magica. And hopefully the new movie that's coming soon will surge activity in the fandom. Speaking of which... why have I never made fanart of Kyoko?? Missed opportunity.
