runespoorOKAY I'VE WATCHED IT.
- I am glad it ended well. I feel like the writers put a lot of effort into ensuring a happy ending - and I do count it as happy. It's "hope saves the day".
- I am a little shipper who ships. (Kyouko/Sayakaaaaaaaaaaaa OTP. And Madoka/Homura, obviously, because I never turn down a yuri pair canon wants me to ship.) I was cooing extatically at my screen when Kyouko was trying to save Sayaka, because ahahahahahahadooooooooomed. I REALLY LIKE STORIES ABOUT SELF-DESTRUCTION, and Madoka has the "for someone you love" version, the "because you don't live your to your own ideals" version...
- I get why everyone loves Homura. (I love her too! But still, Sayakaaaaaaaaaa is my favourite. Being a magical girl gives her magic! She fights for justice! She's not doing enough and people are selfish and terrible and being a magical girl can't stop that! She's a horrible terrible no-good person! I want to see the crossover where she meets Jason Todd.)
- on Kyubey: okay, so he was working for a greater good. You know what it still doesn't really make better? INFORMED CONSENT, YOU MONSTER. THE IMPORTANT WORD IS "INFORMED".
- I love everything about this second half, from Sayaka's fall to darkness to Kyouko's desperate reaching out and awesome self-sacrifice to Episode 10 to how they ended the show.
- Oh, Homura.
- Ep10: obviously Mami had a break-down, but really, taking out as many witches as you can and killing yourself before you become a witch yourself was the best thing to do. "You either die a hero, or live long enough to see yourself become a witch."
- Ep10 Sayaka: Sayaka is Jason Todd. Doomed in every universe where she becomes a magical girl. :3
- I am never going to be able to type that emoticon without flashing to Kyubey. :3 :3 I CAN'T STOP SEEING IT.
- compare "selfish wishes" (especially the way Mami frames Sayaka's wish) to the role of a Prince in Utena.
- I try not to dwell on the "important historical figures were magical girls", because it does cheapen what they achieved, and if I'm right at least one would piss me off a lot.
- "When you're ready to die for the universe, call me. I'll be waiting." is a gorgeous line. And not just because it's incredibly cruel, whether Kyubey means it to be or not. Because it's also incredibly attractive. I'd sign on that dotted line.
- the 2013 magical girl fic exchange cannot come fast enough.
- Madoka still has the best mom.
- feelings. everywhere. dammit, show, I'd started wary of fanservice and just engaged enough in the plot and the characters to appreciate it on an emotional level, and the Kyouko/Sayaka blew through the distance walls and the Ep10 blew through the skepticism walls and the GOOD ENDING made me :DDDDDDDDD back at the entire thing.
- I am not a huge fan of Hitomi's move. She was being perfectly decent until that one day ultimatum bit. :( Y u give ur friend only 24 hrs to make up her mind? (Until the end, I'd hoped she meant "you have one day to tell Kyousuke, or I tell him for you.")
- the ending where Homura talks with Kyubey really drives it home how much things changed. Madoka made the universe into a straight-up magical-girl verse. :D
- EVERYTHING IS BEAUTIFUL AND NOTHING HURTS IN A BAD WAY.
