Gekijōban Mahō Shōjo Madoka Magica: Walpurgis no Kaiten (In Japanese theaters on February 2026)

Honestly, I was expecting release date, new music, and confirmation on who's doing the OP and ED.
I only got 1 reeeeeeeee.

This is so dumb, lol.

But I guess if they added back the dream sequence at the start, it would be an good version to watch.

Too much to ask again for a new standalone soundtrack release with movie stuff?
 
Yea, and now it's going to be 11 episodes long.

As for why? I can only guess money and having something "new" in preparation/promotion for Rising. I guess chances are they run a TV edition of Rebellion just after this too...
 
LOL at the re-compilation news. I get that they want money out of it but it’s just so pointless from an artistic standpoint. Just watch the films if you want the animation/soundtrack; there’s no reason to watch a poor imitation of the TV format otherwise.

I do like that they’re at least keeping Magia as the ED. So much has changed and yet some things always stay the same.
 
I am a little curious how they handle it.

From what I remember the biggest blemishes of the movies to me were 1) skipping the opening dream sequence 2) the flashback not really working as well as the original standalone episode (including the Connect as ED situation), even though they tried to make it artsy with the new "I miss you" sequence.

If they address those (add dream back and keep flashback as separate episode) then at the very least I would be interested in seeing how this recut back to TV format works.
 
Updates via aniplex online fest in a few moments. Like one or two shows away in the livestream program.

Edit:
Well that was a whole lot of nothing.

Short CM with old music for Rising. (CM itself might be old too, I didn't bother to watch again. Edit again: yes, it's the same roadshow announcement one from previous page.)

New ClariS song announcement, seemingly a standalone song inspired by the show.
