hmmm

It may be a breakthrough collaboration...

but i don't think Nana's voice will be in harmony with Kalafina if she have to sing with them..

Unless Yuki compose song for Nana in solo..

ANN forum, expectations for the show...

Considering that Urobuchi is involved, I except most of the cast to be either dead or crazy by the last episode.

:ohoho:
Though honestly, I would prefer not to see such excesses. :uh..:
It's a bit funny how people base their expectations on the composer involved:

>Light-hearted
>Yuki Kajiura

Looks like Yuki has come to be associated with dark, solemn works? Is it the recent KnK, the less recent ShinHnK, or did it start since Noir?

... oh, wait, before Noir, there were Double Cast and Boogiepop... :swt:

It used to be dark mature, now it is more, dark-pretending shounen/shoujo-ish ...
I won't expect her to compose a good truly dark music once like petite cosette or noir for this anime.
I think it will be in the line of... pandora hearts, KnK ... which is... ... ....
 
What's the talk about Nana Mizuki, she's not methioned anywhere.

lol @ new character, she holds a gun XD

then we should expect a hammer or a sword from the 4th :plot:

Her best work to date, in terms of theme and context.
 
Kajiura Yuki -> Shojo music -> Mahou -> Mahou Shoujo Lyrical Nanoha -> Mizuki Nana -> Mizuki Nana collaborate with Kajiura Yuki....

Just make a wish....

or two bows vs two guns :plot:
magical hammers and swords might seem a bit cliche, how about a magical boomerang to boot? :ohoho:
So, Mami Tomoe (who else besides me thought "Tomoyo"? :XD: ). And I'm elated to see Kaori Mizuhashi - aka Minami Shimada ( :dote: :dote: :dote: ), Miyako, Pepper and a whole bunch of voices in NIS games (meaning La Pucelle, Disgaea etc.). And absolutely can't but mention Magical Girl Lyrical Nanoha (Yuuno Scrya, later Vivio ( :dote: ) and Sein as well ), since it's the same league.
Actually, so far all the CVs confirmed are known to have worked with Shaft at least once. :ayashii: Shimbo never forgets good ol' pals. :XD:
Who wanna bet Ai Nonaka or Marina Inoue for the fourth girl? :gimmeh:
(btw, the latter option is especially interesting, since Marina already had a collaboration with Yuki :sparkleguy: ).
As to Mami herself, she looks and sounds like some English aristocrat girl to me. I don't know why I keep suspecting that something British (cue Celtic/druid-themed/possibly elven) should pop up in the setting, theme, plot... or all three. :ayashii: :ayashii: :ayashii:

Wait, is KnK music not dark enough for you? :XD:
And two thirds of PH ost are actually pretty dark, too.

Madoka in school uniform.

Translation of Akemi's CM -

Text:
"Beautiful-looking transferred student with excellent grades, great at sports."
"Just be Kaname Madoka like you've always been."
"Even from now on."
Click to expand...

Looks like they're friends, after all. :dote:

And Mami's -

Text:
"A 3rd year girl who attend to Madoka's school"
"As a dependable older sister."

Voice samples:
"That was dangerous. But it's now okay."
"You can't really show your bad looks to a to-be senior!"
"So here's a plan, how about you two helping me on witch hunting?"
Click to expand...

Witch hunting, you say? :ayashii: :plot:

Also from animesuki:

So, Sayaka is introduced next Thursday and Koyasu two weeks from today if the current pattern holds?
Click to expand...

They seem to know the characters' names already! :omg:
 
A group pic, although photoshopped from solo ones. :ayashii:

Also:

"I am Tomoe Mami, third year from the same Takihara Third Junior High as you two…"
"…and also a magical girl under contract with Kyube."
Click to expand...

Contracts? :plot:
That might mean that:
- Mami is an original magical girl in the setting, and she hunts witches. And she drags Madoka (and most presumably Akemi) into the fray. :ohoho:
Tomorrow we might get some clues at Sayaka (why do I have a suspicion she'll end up looking like Hayate Yagami? :XD: ).
I wonder who is that Kyube. A dark/light deity being? A shinigami on par with the dude from Soul Eater? :ohoho: A Mokona-clone bunnie? :XD:
 
The new girl looks like a huntress..? :ayashii:

And I love how none of their outfits look alike, I wouldn't be surprised if the next girl wore pants (shorts, of course :plot: ).

I like your theory there Nick, would make an awesome premise. Plus, it includes witches (yay!) which ironically, aren't featured as much in Maho Shoujo as one would think they would be. :XD:

So it's about time for girl #4 right? I wonder what color she'll be. Primary or Secondary? :ohoho:

Miki Sayaka
Seiyuu: Kitamura Eri

Text:
"Madoka's classmate and a close friend. Energetic and lively."

Voice samples:
"I'm going to deal with her if she(?) starts poking her nose into it. Even Mami-san is there."
"Mami-san, do the wish really have to be about myself?"
"Aw, I'm glad I was born as a lower middle-class."

She wields a sword

They still have one more character for next week (most likely Takehito Koyasu as the cat), so you'll have to wait a bit for a PV.
 
LOL, George was right. :XD:
And I was wrong thinking she would resemble Hayate. Although she counts as a Magic Knight nonetheless. :dote:

"Madoka's classmate and a close friend. Energetic and lively."

Mami-chan's really unwilling to walk too far in search of companions. Why bother, when there's a bunch of candidates just next door? :ohoho:

"I'm going to deal with her if she(?) starts poking her nose into it. Even Mami-san is there."
Click to expand...

Ah, now that's peculiar. :ayashii:

"Mami-san, do the wish really have to be about myself?"
Click to expand...

Looks like it's still about wishes. Will it be a case of "get a reward per n witches hunted down"? Coupling it with

two bows, one gun, one sword....
Click to expand...

we might be in for an uber-cute Soul Eater successor. :plot:

(most likely Takehito Koyasu as the cat)
Click to expand...

He's even got a surname. :ayashii: I presume it's HE, Koyasu sounds like a male name to me.
I'm not sure how that strange suspicion came to my head (and most likely I'm mistaken as always), but still...

Takehito Koyasu
"A cynical fellow, blatantly sceptical about the very existence of magic. He's therefore NOT amused when the said magic proves itself by having him turned into a talking cat"
And throw in Hiroshi Kamiya as a CV. :plot:
 
Nick, judging by grunty's post, Takehito Koyasu is the seiyuu name, not the cat's

[EDIT] btw They had said they would soon announce the OP and ED themes. Wher are they???! :uh..:
