Thank you!!

ARGH! Just realized I forgot to slot in the date of the event!

Date: March 31, 2012 (Sat)

Sorry, wasn't thinking at 2am then.

Btw, Saitou Chiwa hopes for MadoHomu end

And what was a chunk of ep 12 all about? Unless she hopes for the manga epilogue animated.
Could or could not be subtle hinting, really - Saitou-san, what do you mean YOU HOPE for an ending when you've most likely finished voicing the movie by now?

In other thoughts... it just occurred to me that if both recaps are scheduled for this autumn, will it possibly mean two Kalafina songs? Possibly paired into a single like Sprinter/ARIA once was? of course, that would likely mean we'd get only one instrumental
And yes, I'm all but sure it will be Kalafina for theme songs. If they choose ClariS to do that instead, count me trolled to death.

Aaand in other news, here's a Belarusian search engine I've stumbled upon, of all things.
Among its wonders is a file hoster promising to host up to enormous 1 Mb for up to long 24 hours. You can become a magical girl register and login to gain the benefit of uploading five times more. Sounds awesome until you do the math

interviews of English cast of Madoka

Sayaka's dub voice just hits the bullseye. Madoka's still bothers me a bit, though - it sounds like the actress is going into an enforced falcetto at times.

It was also funny to see how Kyouko's actress munches on pockies right during the recording to recreate the sound.

Turns out that Kirara Time announcement from a while ago was hintingnot at a manga, but at a new magazine:

And I'll end this post with another unrelated pic

Ok, that's nice and all but WHERE IS THE PAINTED VERSION OF GODOKA?

 

[Nick Hunter]

Wasn't it released already? IIRC a Godoka came as a bonus to some figurine set... or was it a nendo?

 

[KP-X]

I'm talking about that biiig one. And no, it hasn't been released yet.

Sayaka good ending from psp game with English translation

It is quite long but you can always skip the witches battles part.

 

[Nick Hunter]

skip the witches battles part.

Which the video helps doing, too. When that merry music kicked in before fastforwarding, I nearly freaked out, thinking it was actually in the OST...

The whole deal... At first I was like, "Oh joy, this looks almost like Urobuchi went out of his way to do Sayaka justice ". And then I was like, "Oh GREAT, of course he still has Walpurgis Night up his sleeve ". Just in time to remind us what a good ending estimates to in a Gen Urobuchi story.

But still, this is priceless. One can hardly overestimate the existence of this game for MadoMagi fandom and especially for a Sayaka fan like me. Seeing her get over her crisis and regaining a purpose in life, bonding with Kyouko and fighting proudly is something I've wished for in vain. Even if this timeline is gone and buried in a mountain of Homura's other resets, even if Sayaka died here anyway - she died a heroic death with no despair burdening her. Which, sadly, isn't even what seemed to happen in the final timeline... One sure has to praise the game's alternate ending nature, since what else could possibly make Gen go as far as this?

It's a tiny bit suspicious as canon (mostly because of Moemura whom I supposed to have dropped her pigtails and glasses exactly after the first three timelines), but oh well - not like we've got a clear picture of the timelines succession anyway (maybe the first issue of Magical Girl Kirara Magica will brush that up a bit? ), and not like the game seems to take this succsession TOO seriously anyway. This sight of Sayaka becoming a real fighter of justice and this KyoSaya fluff thrown in is probably the most we're ever getting canonically, so hey.

Thanks, Moichi, this video has made my day.

Meanwhile, I'm still in the first route... Got dragged into grinding Mami, forgetting this is the anime route. Ain't had such an amount of labour go to waste since FF7

I liked that show, haven't gotten around to checking out anything else yet. I don't really like magical girls, I watched it solely because Yuki did the music, so even if it sucked at least it had awesome music. But I thought it was pretty epic.

Aoi Yuuki's PV. Notable for looking as though they made it in a witch barrier.

EDIT: Since Ume-sensei's 4koma, we know Kyouko's efforts at cheering Sayaka up, um... don't always work:

Re:

Scorpio is pretty cute too. I am a Libra though, which makes creative use of those rings around its...ears? Second ears? Ears that come out of its ears?

EDIT: Since Ume-sensei's 4koma, we know Kyouko's efforts at cheering Sayaka up, um... don't always work:

LOL, Kyouko is so cute and funny! I feel guilty for laughing as Sayaka goes witch.

 

[Nick Hunter]

Considering the truth behind Kyuubey's design, I don't even wanna think what they are.

And yes, Kyouko is uber-cute there, especially with nekomimi. Then again, it's not the first time she goes with those - even the ending image of episode 9 had her like that.

Oh, and regarding a full size painted Ultimate Madoka... would this do for the time being?

And now for something sad

And now for something unrealistic
