i can't... just choose thre...... (pretty long rambling ahead lol)

ok so the first thing about mika that piqued my interest back when i still knew nothing about him was probably his voice (both speaking & singing). I really liked the way he spoke and when i listened to him singing for the first time i was genuinely astounded. I really love his voice nowadays and i think it really matches shu's. Whereas shu's voice is more harsh? and like with a lot of grolws, mika's more gentle and you can sense the emotions pouring from each syllabus. I just love valkyrie's voices so much 🥺 and mika's voice is pretty expressive, so whenever i listen to it im just like wkdkak god i wish i could hug you rn (im so glad he's doing better now <3)

And for the personality, at first i simply thought he was cute and he slightly reminded me of a pathetic cat (/affectionate). And i still think that lmao, but now i've come to understand him as a character and. man,, he's amazing. I'd probably just start sounding like shu in human comedy and raison d'être (and probably neverland & hermitage too-), so yeah, shu's own thoughts and feelings about mika pretty much convey mine too 😭 Im being completely honest here, if you want to read an event to fall in love with mika, please read human comedy. Is just. so beautiful and it also explains a lot about his fears as a human and shows his character development and wkrkw it's such an amazing event. Also mika's relationship with the kids of the orphanage and his aspiration to be their light 🥹🥹 skdks im sorry i just. love him so very much and can't wait to see whether we're getting more of his development as both an artist and a human cause i'd love to see it

long story short, i just love everything about him 😭 his dancing is also incredible and his performance in hermitage is just... chef kiss I can't wait to uruwashi no nightingale mv to see if they've included any parts of mika's dancing 🥹

why did you have to pull the no-valk-or-knights-members card on me... you're too mean anon 😔 /j

i think my favorite vocals in that case would be hiyori and natsume's! ive actually been a fan of natsuki hanae's work (hiyori's seiyuu) for quite some time now, and when i found out he was on enstars i was like... super happy wkdkajd I loved his performance on milgram and i love to compare mikoto and hiyori's voices because they are both so unique and perfect and i love how they both sound SO GOOD despite being so different (like mikoto is more growl-ish whilst hiyori's voice is more soft imo). I think the song that really highlights hiyori's voice is deep eclipse and i LOVE his harmonizations with nagisa 🥺 im sorry, i dont have a lot to say about natsume's seiyuu cause i didn't know him before enstars 😔 but his voice is so soft and charming? I would totally fall asleep to it and i love it soso much for it

and ik you said no knights members but... let me talk about izumi sena for a sec (pretty please 🥺). I actually didn't know anything about enstars when i first played the game, and that included the characters. I was interested in ritsu at first and decided to play little romance (bc he had ritsu on the cover basically), and when i heard izumi's lines i was. genuinely stunned. Like. what???? Yeah i think i fell for his voice first and then i got to know him and now he's my second favorite enstars character. But yeah his seiyuu is amazing too 🥺

and tysm 🥺💖💖

hello anon! tysm 🥺💖 I've been thinking about your question, but i haven't been able to come to a conclusion x') i just LOVE shumika as a whole, i simply can't pick one main reason. I love how well-built their relationship is, how they went from a one-sided attraction and toxic relationship to a genuine and unconditional love from both parties. I love the way shu melts and softens around mika and i love that mika has started to acknowledge and embrace his own humanity, too. Their relationship is too dear to me and i also love how you can see subtle details in their mvs that show how their relationship is changing into something beautiful (i think the less subtle ones are acanthe and le temps des fleurs). And i'm so looking forward to !!! era and reading their new events and also attending to their wedding because at this point is painfully obvious that they're in love 😭😭

I just... love them as a whole. I love valkyrie as a unit and i love shumika as a ship. They're my favorite unit and ship and honestly i could've just replied to this question with "wuehehehwjwjwjejsjsjwjwjwbwsuwhehe" and it'd still conveyed my feelings pretty well 😭 They're just there, living 24/7 rent free in my mind... my sillies, i love them <3
