I empowered the wrong individual as a magical girl. As a magical girl, it is my duty to protect innocents and fight against evil forces that threaten the balance of the world. But sometimes, even with the best intentions, mistakes are made. And in this case, I made a grave mistake in choosing the person to empower. At first glance, she seemed like the perfect candidate. She had a strong sense of justice, a kind heart, and a burning desire to make the world a better place.
She had a strong sense of justice, a kind heart, and a burning desire to make the world a better place. It was this passion that convinced me she was the right one to carry the mantle of a magical girl. But as time went on, it became clear that my judgment had been clouded.
I empowered the wrong individual as a magical girl
I start all my panels off by addressing this: What is A Magical Girl?
It seems cut and dry, an easy answer, but there is tons of in-fighting in the fandom as to what shows count. "Revolutionary Girl Utena isn't a Magical Girl series", "Bee and Puppycat doesn't count because it's a western show", "Black Rock Shooter is definitely a magical girl series."
This gets particularly frustrating when I'm choosing which content to consume. So after being unsatisfied with the definitions online I've created my own.
She started to exhibit signs of recklessness and impulsiveness, using her newfound powers for personal gain rather than for the greater good. Instead of focusing on protecting innocents, she became fixated on seeking revenge against those who wronged her. **The main problem was that I had failed to see the potential for darkness that lay within her**. While she appeared kind-hearted and just on the surface, deep down, there was a darkness that I had failed to recognize. A darkness that was slowly consuming her and distorting her perception of right and wrong. As her mentor, it was my responsibility to guide and mentor her, to ensure that she remained on the right path. But I had failed in that duty. I had empowered someone who was not capable of handling the responsibility that came with being a magical girl. **Her actions became more and more extreme**, and it soon became apparent that she was causing more harm than good. Innocents were being hurt, lives were being destroyed, all in the name of justice and revenge. **I had to confront the fact that I had made a mistake**. I had chosen the wrong individual to empower, and now I had to face the consequences. I had to find a way to stop her before things spiraled out of control. It was a difficult decision, but I knew it was the right one. I had to take away her powers, to prevent further destruction and chaos. I hoped that, without the influence of the powers, she would find a way to regain her sense of justice and use her abilities for good. Empowering the wrong individual was a hard lesson to learn. **It taught me the importance of truly understanding the character and inner motivations of someone before giving them the power to change the world**. It was a lesson that I would carry with me for the rest of my life as a magical girl..
