Yeah; she’s just saying she’s happy about the rebroadcast using Magia. I really don’t think she’s being maniacal/deliberate here, lol. Though it does give a fun mental image of Keiko mischievously rubbing her hands together.

Sorry, I didn't get this comment.

Where did Keiko comment about the rebroadcast (with potential inner hand-rubbing)?

For me, eventually watching the Madoka anime after having first loved the MV and being a fan of Kajiura, made me feel the emotional impact of the song as evidence of Kajiura's transmitting the despair of the characters into song form.

I found it interesting that in the creditless you can see details in the animation better, for example i had never notice the other siluettes when madoka walking were the other girl characters.

I believe @Decretum was following up on @george1234's perception of that Keiko_Staff tweet, while prefacing that said tweet doesn't read malicious at all (as george was suggesting).

Going back to that - Keiko (or her staff) is allowed to be happy that a song she recorded 15 years ago is still relevant and having a life today (via a new broadcast of the TV show), without having to mention Kajiura or having fans imagine malicious things behind that tweet.

OK, thanks for clarifying that.

Yeah... No one erases the other by not talking frequently about them. Everyone is living in the moment.
 
It's not easy with this franchise because the series and the third movie were already a great whole, without necessity to have a risky sequel after it. But there is still hope for me because I thought the same way about rebellion after I saw the series...

ngl the more I see of this movie's promotional material, the less interested I am.

It feels less and less like a Madoka project, but the most SHAFTy fanservice project.

i second this. i can excuse bebe's sudden appearance in rebellion because at the end the story is about homura. all these magic girls from idk exedra or all the other magica spin-offs that i am not interested in appearing in the trailer makes me feel like it's just a fanservice project made to include as much girls as possible so people can see their favorites instead of it being a possible nice conclusion to the og madoka series.
 
For me it's not even the characters (as of now - we'll see what they are in the movie), it's trash like (among many others) Bebe spinning on a stripper pole in this PV, Homura's dental check in previous PV. Like, at this point I might begin expecting bed pans to start dropping from the sky on Homura's and Sayaka's head in the most random "serious" moments. Just because. I never thought of Madoka Magica as this random.
 
^ I was also surprised at the pole spin lol what's next ? Outfit transformation to pole dancer ? lol

Even without Magia Record or Magia Exedra the plot was pretty confusing even with just 5 girls with all the phylosophy/physics/witch world stuff and Homura travelling on multiple timelines in Rebellion, we didn't need 20 more girls lol They just did it so they can have different characters to sell for the gatcha mechanic of the games.
