Eight. I mean, yeah, saw a lot of that coming, but still, fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu

Yeah, Madoka's awesome. I've been watching it since it started, and I managed to get a friend into it. However, we're forgetting the best mahou shoujo this season: Ayumu.

But he's a masou shoujo... Everyone's a zombie, though.

Edit: Now watch this. Then go to my first post and watch Universe again 'cause Universe is hella pretty.

No no no, he's a mahou shoujo, since he's a magical girl. Masou is just a portmanteau of mahou and something that I don't know which means clothed.

Also, that's a fabulous YouTube video. Thanks for sharing it.

I heard this described as Evangelion for magical girls so I am askin' like as someone who fucking hated Evangelion will I or will I not hate this anime you are tellin' me to watch?

e: Noncon your spoiler mentions a girl's head getting bitten off , how many brutal deaths am I looking at watching here, as someone who really doesn't especially have a major need for brutal deaths in his entertainment media?

That's a bit of a bunk comparison, to be honest. But really I think it depends on what you hated Evangelion for.
Just watch a few, see what happens.

Well, I hated Evangelion for its shit pacing and awful ending. Madoka definitely feels slower paced, but it uses that to develop its characters instead of sitting on a single frame for five minutes cuz the animation budget ran out. But yeah, it's Eva in that it completely tears apart the genre and takes it in a whole different direction, but I like the direction Madoka is going, whereas Eva seemed to get lost.

Without offering too many spoilers, I will say that the spoiler you mention is not especially graphic as you might think, and that there haven't been any other instances of *that* happening since. However, there have been other REAL BAD THINGS that have happened, but they're a different kind of REAL BAD.

What? I mean... what the fuck does THAT mean?!

You have sold me and then lost me on this show twice within two pages. How many more cycles are we going to run here?

Well, you could just watch it. If you don't care by episode 3, then drop it.

P-Sleazy · 03-02-2011, 09:56 PM

Odds are, you'll care by episode 2 though. I just watched all 8 eps and am in love.
