Madoka Magika 08-09
Kyouka takes the lead of best character in the show with Homura/Sayaka/Madoka in a three-way battle for second best.

Still enjoying it however there's only 4 episodes left from this point on, it's ending too fast!

I was surprised in Episode 8 I was starting to question Kyubei's role as the main antagonist during his talk with Madoka. For a moment he seemed nothing more than a base neutral party but then Homura showed up and went OVERKILL. Then the episode ended with Sayaka turning into a witch with only Kyouko there to witness it. The music in that specific scene was fucking awesome.
Episode 9 came along and apparently Kyubei is... AN ALIEN! Yeah, not really happy with that and the psuedo-scientific explanation for Magical Girls kind of rubs me the wrong way. I would've preferred that Kyubei was actually a god/mythical creature of some sort instead of an emissary of the universe but whatevs. You do what you gotta do I suppose.
And you know how I was hoping/predicting for Sayaka's death? Well I expected it, but damn the show threw a double-whammy and took our both her and Kyouko simultaneously. It was here were I actually felt the feels and had to pause/take a breather to register what had happened. Just when Kyouko became best character she is snuffed out, this is like Game of Thrones shit here.
And finally, the Wasu-something.... big bad witch that is coming, I predict that is actually future Madoka somehow where she had already became a Magical Girl but was eventually transformed into a witch.

realist with her humanity/emotion let loose. Madoka is an optimist but has her worldview gradually cracking as these events transpire to what I predict is going to shatter eventually.

this is pretty much all Key stories in a nutshell. The least offensive of this formula being Clannad, though even that one had its moeblob (starfish girl i will never forgive).
i agree though, even with these silly tropes and supernatural plot twists, i still enjoy them. now the real challenge is if you can get through the cesspool that is little busters the animation.

Maybe for Japanese games to have some form of relevance, but as a whole? Might as well have a PC to go with your system.
Honestly, I'm not even sure if crazy is underselling it here.

I find it hilarious how people get hung up over the science bit, but I understand when they try to explain something that doesn't entirely need to be explained.
Definitive proof the MAL is the work of the devil.
I never really thought about it before, but
it does feel kind of weird that they have this pseudo-science thing for such a supernatural series.
In other news, Sayaka's whole character arc is probably the most feelsy thing for me in the series. ;_;

it's not on hummingbird either, which is even more surprising. :/
At least on HB you can point it out and it'll get added.

I personally think no one actually likes her. In universe I mean. You'll see what I mean in the next episode.

This needs to be part of the El Cantare Laws of the Sun series.
Little Busters is greatI'm not considering it a dealbreaker. More like something that sours the deal a bit. There really is no reason for it at all nowadays.
Point is they ought to fix that shiz.

I agree with this sentiment in a way. The whole supernatural concept didn't need an in-depth explanation but even if it did it should've stayed within the supernatural theme instead of a pseudo-science bomb. Kind of throws you out of the loop. It doesn't particularly bother me as I'm more invested into the characters but I can see how it can alienate others.
I've already watched the show, although I'm not sure what exactly you're referring to.
Haha, after Oreki gave his conclusions about the movie one of my first thoughts was
what about the rope?
Another for Team Laura!
Uh, this still annoys me. Laura is still a cool character but the fact that they have her interested in Ichika is so...bleh. It feels so mean towards all the girls.
True end is Laura knifes him.

Really good animation and kinda funny visual gags. The art design is really interesting and the direction is strong (I guess). While I'd like to say that they did a good job in making the contrast between the school and the town where the school gives of this oppressive vibe while the outside doesn't, I don't know WHY that should be true. What kind of world is this and why are people being forced to go to this school?
The story is stupid as shit though. I'm not a fan of all the fanservice and that godawful uniform Ryuuko is wearing. Will keep watching until it gets too uncomfortable.

Given the length of the series, I figure we'll learn about that after the school stuff is sorted out.

The worst part is that not only do we not have proper accounts on either current game system from them (especially the Wii U), but adding people on Wii U isn't even done well at all. You can't just add people via friendlists and expect them to get it. You have to do it over MIIVERSE in order for them to get the response, otherwise it'll be left on deaf ears.
Well I have my fair share of "WHY THE FUCK DID YOU EXPLAIN THAT" moments in life.
Like the whole why Nightmare and Ridley ended up on the ship in Metroid Fusion. That shit did not needed to be explained.
Don't read this if you're currently still watching Madoka (it's fine if you're done)
Because Sayaka always get the shit end of the stick in the deal, and she doesn't even get another shot at living when things get fixed. That's what I mean by no one really liking Sayaka.
oh man, i sure hope you are.
ho ho ho shirley, you can't be serious.
please tell me you're talking about the VN and not the anime
Im just going to pretend this hsppens.
Oh yeah, I know what you mean. (Madoka ending spoilers)
Sayaka does have a sort of satisfying ending, but in more of a "happy to move on" way than anything. Of course, the whole ending of Madoka is pretty melancholy in that sense she doesn't actually stop the death or the fighting. She makes it better, but it's still... not great. Sayaka does kind of feel like her role in the story is basically to hammer in all of the darkest and most hopeless points the story's making.
In conclusion: Oh Gen. Oh you.

How does MAL explain things like Avatar and Megas XLR, then?
Although it should still be noted that the other world in the BRS OVA, which was traditionally animated, still looked better.

Why would you call those "anime"?

Thank you.
The sad thing is that was on there for quite a while too. smh
The whole way that played out
was wonderfully meta. Horror twist at the end of a conversation about horror plots and twists.
It's not her fault, it's the drugs the school forces on everyone.
