I have had the soundtrack to KPop Demon Hunters stuck in my head for the last four months. Not that that's a bad thing. 😉

Getting up at 5 in the morning for spin isn't the best, but it's a great workout.

I heard some agents are still checking out #DVpit posts. If there are any out there looking for something akin to #SailorMoon, #Precure or #K-PopDemonHunters take a look at my #MagicalGirls.
Five centuries ago, the Triad unleashed the near-infinite power of the Nexus upon the cosmos. Now, they seek to do it again and the only ones with any chance of stopping them are high school students Hana Azar, Celeste Vento and Kairi Kawaguchi. #DVpit #YA #Fantasy #MagicalGirl

Just in case some agents are still checking out posts and are in the mood for some Magical Girls a la Sailor Moon or Precure.
Beyond the reaches of time and space exists the Void, a realm devoid of light. It’s only inhabitant, the Nexus, is a dark entity with near-infinite power. The only ones standing in the Nexus’s way and total annihilation are Hana, Celeste and Kairi. #DVpit #YA #Fantasy #MagicalGirl

When Hana, Celeste and Kairi visited the Faremonte Museum to check out the new exhibit – the crown jewel of which being the Ruby, Amethyst and Sapphire Gauntlets – they never imagined it would lead to a centuries-long battle to decide the fate of the cosmos. #DVpit #YA #Fantasy #MagicalGirl

Five hundred years ago, the Triad almost laid waste to the cosmos. Thanks to the intervention of the Trinity, they were defeated and banished to the Nether. Now freed from their prison, a new Trinity must rise up to vanquish them. #DVpit #YA #Fantasy #MagicalGirl

Doing her best to live up to her parents’ expectations and the legacy her older brother left behind, Hana Azar elected to spend her summer vacation in the classroom until she crossed paths with a talking cat and a magical wrist gauntlet. #DVpit #YA #Fantasy #MagicalGirl

Celeste Vento would rather bury the pain of the past and enjoy everything the summer throws at her with Billie by her side, but the call of the Amethyst Gauntlet is too great and the stakes are too high. #DVpit #YA #Fantasy #MagicalGirl
