    Dense Miss Black-and-white and the Seven Coloured Tsundere

    Seven coloured day gag MariAli.
    I wanted to draw Alice secretly (?) getting flutters over Marisa's careless remark.
    "The Red and Black Puppetteer" sounds pretty cool, too.

    I dunno where they're getting half of this. Any Americans wanna confirm you only see 6 colours? I did some googling and the only 6-coloured rainbow I found was the pride flag lmao. Which, incidentally, used to have 8 colours with pink at the top, then they narrowed it down twice.

    I mean, it is true that different cultures, especially historically, group the colours a bit differently and might not make distinctions they don't need. Japanese, for instance, didn't use to have a separate word for green and that's why the green light is called "ao", or "blue".
    But still, splitting the rainbow into red and black is unhinged.

    As mentioned above, Americans are taught that the rainbow has seven colors, but a lot of depictions I've seen of rainbows in America only use six, replacing blue and indigo for a shade of blue that's somewhere in between.
