Kalafina Post-Kajiura thread (Upd: Kalafina will appear: KYOMAF MUSIC LIVE 2026)

  1. 2011 TV series
    Puella Magi Madoka Magica

    which was turned into two compilation movies in 2012 as
    Puella Magi Madoka Magica the Movie Part 1: Beginnings / Hajimari no Monogatari
    Puella Magi Madoka Magica the Movie Part 2: Eternal / Eien no Monogatari
    (updated animation; re-recorded dialogue; lost the opening dream sequence which I believe most fans thought was a terrible idea; features more original music so it does not repeat like in the TV show although fans lamented some changes as abandoning established themes in favor of new music;)

    which in 2025 were turned back into an episodic TV series as
    Mahou Shoujo Madoka Magica Hajimari no Monogatari / Eien no Monogatari [TV Edition]
    (restored dream sequence at the beginning and episodic mostly like the original, except the first 2 episodes of the original TV series are now just a single episode1;)

    Frankly I think the 2025 TV edition could be a good way to (re)watch - for the full experience start with the first two episodes of 2011 TV series and then switch to 2025 TV edition episode2 (which was the original's 3rd episode). edit: Actually nevermind, I don't think there's a version of this without dimmed lighting on flashy scenes, unless some fans went in and re-created it on their own from the bluray movies. Just watch the og. XD
  2. 2013 movie
    Puella Magi Madoka Magica The Movie Part 3: Rebellion / Hangyaku no Monogatari

    whether you want to consider it a sequel to the TV story or just the movies as a separate continuity is up to you;
  3. 2026 movie
    Puella Magi Madoka Magica The Movie - Walpurgisnacht: Rising / Walpurgis no Kaiten

There's also the 4 minute Concept Movie from 2015 but I don't know how it fits in. ;p

do as you wish. The loss of the dream sequence in the compilation movies is definitely a bummer.

edit:
changed "improved" animation to "updated" animation...

I finally watched Rebellion.

Wow! Really turned everything on its head, didn't she, Homura?
