Suvi's entire family lives there guys. All of them, not just Steel or the Wizard Council she may be suspicious of re: the geas but also Sly, her apprentice Yulia, Steel's husband Sonder and their kids (her siblings), Hana, Hana's dad and evey friend she has ever made outside of Eursolon and Ame.

I don't think the Witches and the armies of Rhuv are going to make much of a distinction between Sonder, Yulia and Steel if their stated goal is to burn the Citadel to the ground.

I understand that in this story, and by Suvi specifically, 'The Citadel' is often referring to the wizard military of the Empire but it's also a physical place with non combatants living there, which has currently deployed a lot of it's actual combatants elsewhere.

And I think it's fine if that's not your priority, or if you think the Citadel as a political entity is reaping what it sowed but again - everyone else Suvi loves is physically there and they will absolutely be caught in a war.

And in fairness to people asking this, Suvi is arguing about the culpability of the political!Citadel but that culpability also the reason the vote for war is happening.

On Saturday, at Anime NYC 2024, Yen Press announced that it has licensed Neru Asakura's Yuri light novel Did You Think My Yuri Was a Sales Pitch? (Watashi no Yuri mo, Eigyou da to Omotta?). The single-volume is illustrated by Chigusa Minori (Shino to Ren).

Yen Press describes the light novel:

Suzune Senmiya, a young voice actress, has been struggling for six months to get over the retirement of her favorite idol, Karin Kanezuki. One day, Karin shows up as a new voice actress in Suzune’s agency! While Suzune tries to play it cool and keep her distance, Karin aggressively closes the gap between them. And as Suzune starts to see unexpected sides of Karin, she begins to perceive her not just as an idol but as a woman.
