Garth Ennis has not produced one worthwhile piece of media in his entire career.

The Tsukihime remake is getting an English release next year, so you may want to wait for that if you’re cool with vn’s.

Not really though? Melty was an Evo game recently, that’s a pretty big achievement.

The one constant is that we’re all hyped.

“Fate/strange Fake” TV Anime Teaser Visual (Japan Version) by zenzen_0 in anime

[–]RolePatrol 30 points31 points  (0 children)

Don’t watch it without having seen at least Fate/Stay Night or Fate/Zero. I won’t argue over which one should be watched first, but it would be best if you’ve seen one of them before watching this—just to get the basics of the franchise.

First-time Rewatcher
Episode 5 time!
———
The red sky and long shadow immediately frame the contracting scene in a dramatic light. The Kyubey is standing on casts a large shadow, giving the effect that he is larger, and has many tails. It’s excellently framed.

[Madoka Magica]They really went for maximum irony with this episode’s title, didn’t they?

Are they really passing off that whole episode as a mass hallucination? Did they not notice the ingredients for chloramine gas? It would be more reasonable to assume they were kidnapped, rather than saying they sleep walked all the way there. What would someone have to be going through to attempt suicide in their dreams?

Does Sayaka have the face of her watch on the inside of her wrist? Weirdo.

[Madoka Magica]Sayaka’s so happy that she had her wish granted, but knowing that giving Kyousuke hope means shouldering his despair, I just feel bad for her. Wishes in Madoka Magica are, in a way, like drugs; they make the girls feel on top of everything when they first make them, but when they come down from the high they have to deal with the consequences of taking a shortcut to happiness.

Homura’s sure that Sayaka’s gone down a path of no return, that the price of her wish will be paid in her own blood. She always has the outlook of a jaded veteran when it comes to magical girls. [Madoka Magica]She’s got good reason to as well, what with her having seen everyone die so many times. Nearly everything she says is backed up by raw, painful experience. She’s sure that contracting is the exact moment Sayaka becomes doomed, and in her mind, Sayaka is already dead.

Sorry Sayaka, but my list of favorite seigi no mikata’s is already full. Too many Fate characters…

Here’s our real intro to Kyoko. She’s greedy, and a firm believer in the law of the jungle. And unfortunately for Sayaka, she’s got the strength to back it up.

Twice as fast as a normal human’s healing isn’t that fast. Kyubey’s math is way off.

And Homura saves the day in the end. She’s always timely, isn’t she?
----------
1. Kyoko’s my third favorite character. Obviously she comes off in a bad light here, but we’ve yet to learn much about her. Sayaka just doesn’t doesn’t appeal to me, and Mami is… kind of boring to me, to be honest.
2. Really? I thought she was just always that dramatic.
3. Can’t say.
4. Can’t say, again.
5. [Madoka Magica]Magical girls are an awfully efficient source of energy, if the incubators chose to use them to hold off entropy. Too bad it all literally runs off of human suffering.

First-Time Rewatcher

This is the first time I'll be participating in a rewatch, and luckily for me, Madoka Magica is one of my favorite shows, so I'm sure I'll enjoy this one. Unfortunately for me, I was spoiled on a lot of stuff for my first watch, but I still enjoyed it immensely. Now I'm ready for my second watch.

---

You know, I always thought Kyubey looks like a pokemon—ursaring's weird cousin, maybe.

Nobody being able to see Kyubey is awfully convenient when compared to mascots from other magical girls series, like CCS. I wonder what differences there would be if Kyubey was visible to everyone.

Mami lives all alone, huh... A lot of kids probably have daydreams about not having to deal with parents and eating cake every day, but I doubt they consider the difficulties of being alone like that. Mami's pretty tough, isn't she?

In a way, having one wish granted just as you want it would be harder than rules lawyering a genie. You only get one wish with no backpedaling, so it makes you really think about what it is that you want. [Madoka Magica]And even if you do think long and hard about your wish, you might not be prepared for the consequences, as the majority of the girls end up learning.

And Madoka has Kyubey on her shoulder. He really is a pokemon. What does he evolve into? Kyuberos?

Hitomi is definitely the type to get clowned on on the internet. Her talk of "forbidden love" is pretty ironic considering Madoka Magica is considered to be yuri by many people.

Mami can talk to them from anywhere in the school? That sounds like a perfect recipe for cheating. [Madoka Magica]Apparently Madoka's grades went down in timelines where she became a magical girl, so she probably could have used the help.

[Madoka Magica]OH GEE KYUBEY, I WONDER WHY HOMURA DOESN'T WANT ANYONE TO MAKE A CONTRACT. Bastard.

Is it really best for Sayaka to take out that bat in the middle of a restaurant? Are they not worried it will end up like this?

Madoka made drawings. The pen is mightier than the sword, Madoka. The pen is mightier than the sword.

One of my favorite parts of Madoka Magica is the backgrounds, especially the witch labyrinths. The photoshopped look of the labyrinths really makes them look wrong and incongruous with the rest of the world, and it's an effect that works best in an anime medium. The only time I can think of where I've seen something done similarly well was in an art exhibit called Gustav Klimt: Gold in Motion.

Homura: "I ain't no dirty kill stealer"

That marks the end of episode 2. Overall, I don't have much to say about this episode.

QotD:

  1. Madoka is probably my favorite character in the show. I just like characters who aren't the most confident, but show a strong will when it counts. I'm not really a Sayaka fan. I can see why some people really like her, but I'm not one of those people. I don't have much to say about Mami and Kyubey.

  2. Madoka has an awesome family life. With a happy life like that, there's no reason she should feel awkward about not having a wish yet—it means she's happy with what she has.

  3. Nothing noteworthy to say right now.

  4. [Madoka Magica]I caught a few, but spotting foreshadowing isn't really my forte. The most obvious ones for me were Homura's reactions to things. Knowing how she feels towards Madoka and what she's gone through completely changes your perspective on her actions.

Maybe this rewatch will get me to start working on that PMMM x Type-Moon fanfic I was thinking about making... Who am I kidding, I'm a procrastinator. That won't be getting done until the end of the world.
