Well! Showing off and drawing attention to the heartsword scars is an excellent reason for a cutout right there.
… Are these actual heartsword wielders, or is that makeup?
Given how much dedication it takes to become either a professional singer or a heartsword wielder, I’m guessing there aren’t three people in any one country who’ve managed to become both.
…er, the performers on stage are supposed to be actual singers and not just lipsynchers, right?
Well, IIRC Pascentia’s in something called the heartsword ballet (see her first appearance, Slow News Day: Summerfest), but I suppose dancing + swords are closer skillsets than singing + swords.
The heartswords are real; the singing is real. The instruments, however, are fake (or, best-case scenario, not on-mic). Each song gets a pre-recorded backing track, so only the vocals are live.
I’m so glad seeing so many of the write ins I do show up.
The Incomprehensible one. The one using real fire. The one that makes everyone blush. The one using heart-swords. The Hakka analogue… <3 Even the movable stage, as the actual one done by the tamputans! It feels like all of my write ins were used!
Love the outfits and the backstory of the country.
I have an out of the box theory that one of the countries is going to sing a song about Kudzu.
We’ve already seen the Ceannic entry this year, but maybe another country is gonna do a song?
Isn’t that what Kolpovision is for? So that the countries could wage a musical war on each other instead of a real one? 😀
