Honestly, I couldn't care less about Kyubey. Unless the little twerp decides to pull another whamming trump out of his ear, he'll remain a background force major to me. The girls' destinies are what I really want to know.
Btw, one of /a/ threads had a link to PMMM script being auctioned somewhere... It was all kanji, so I closed the tab seconds after opening it... now there are talks that the lot actually had the list of episode titles, conveniently spoiling that of episode 12... and now I can't find the link anywhere. :uh..: Nor any info on the spoiled title (although I could have missed it, /a/ threads can be a chore to look through).
All in all, people there are already down to melancholically trolling their behinds off. Like,

Man, episode 11 was awesome. I can't believe Hitomi was the black cat after all. And she was in love with Sayaka all along, holy shit. But I guess it makes sense considering her earlier shenanigans.

As for Homura being Madoka's sister, well I think we all saw that coming, but I still she a tear when Junko held her long lost daughter in her arms one last time before taking her final breath. Fucking QB.

Walpurgis Night is rapidly evolving to Where'swaldo Night to Wallpaper Night to Walmart Night. And so on, and so forth. :desksweat: :XD: Well, 4chan is 4chan to the end, but the atmosphere is bitterly sarcastic everywhere. :groucho: Where is this world going to?
Oh wait, I know - to Kriemhild Gretchen party :ohoho: (spoiler pic, of course)
Speaking of which... if someone really pulled off an April's Fool joke regarding NicoNico, I'd dedicate this spoiler strip to him/her/them :psst: :plot: :knife: :ohoho:

And it's still two months before the OST... I wish they would actually repack it with Vol.1 :leaf: Although there are mostl likely those who ordered Vol 2 for the sake of the OST alone, and they might be... less than pleased at this :white:
 
Nick, what I meant saying Kyubey destiny was: Another weak without knowing how MSMM will end! :ohoho:
 
How do you think, if we mail Yuki and beg her very much, will she agree to spoil the ending for us? :TdT: :XD:
It's April 2 already, and still not even a hint about Madoka. :wai:

But I've found a surprisingly decent AMV set to FJY's Nowhere. :ayashii:

EDIT: Mami's theme [Credens Justitiam?] - violin edition :ayashii: :dote:
From the Youtube comments...

Q. I heard this BGM somewhere...

B. Just imagination.

Indeed :ayashii: :psst:
 
Some interview translations. Last episodes are referred to, maybe that's the part Urobuchi was talking about when he tweeted about "having to edit the interview to avoid spoilers". :ayashii:

>UG - ...(at the time of) Brassreiter I was just like a secretary summing up what Itano-san spurted out and talked about. In Phantom sure I was credited as original author and I got concession here and there because of that, but then there were also scenes that Director Mashita wanted to put in throughout the series and there was little room out of that, so at the end I followed suit and went on to create a new “Phantom”. Compared with all these this time round you can call it a free-for-all to the extent of being scary....Director Shinbo was already totally satisfied with the ideas at the very initial stage, and there was almost no change even down to very small details in the story line. Even for those “re-take” bits they were not related to the central part of the story but because of the need to adjust to the length of the episodes. I don't think I had to do any fine-tuning to match what Shinbo wanted.

Q- You mean you were allowed almost all the freedom you wanted...?

UG – “Almost”, but it is like totally free for me. I could really do whatever I liked even to the extent that I did not think I could have written this screenplay in any other places.

Takayama – Were you asked with something like, there were so many action scenes that added to the cost of production so please cut down on those?

UG – On the contrary, I did not write any action scene. At the stage of screenplay there wasn't any monster design or background art, so all actions were only added after all the designs were completed. I wrote only the outline, like who talked to whom about what at where and had this battle, and I wrote down only the dialogues. So the action scenes I left everything to the storyboard-ists. At most I only came up with some ideas for the actions in the last 2 episodes. So when I finally saw the completed video I was also surprised – it had become this kind of action!! like that (lol) And let me put one thing straight, the fight scenes in Ep.11 was not from me. I did plan until the middle of it but I did not know it would end up that way. (symbv: now I really wonder what he means by this...)

>Takahashi – What do you think when you compared the image in you when you handed the screenplay and the completed video?

UG – They are different things in a good sense. In Ep.1 and 2 there were talking scenes here and there but in the scene where Mami brought out a bunch of guns in the screenplay there was only one line “mass firing of musket guns” (lol). While there was not much conversation in the last battle, the final video was such a riot. Although I wrote it in parts following my design, they added double dose of explosives into each part (lol). On those places I was really helped by the anime staff.

Q – You said you did not define the contents of the battle scenes, but many watchers are saying “it is like this because it is from Urobuchi !!”

UG – I feel very ashamed whenever I heard that. (lol).... Perhaps the staff who drew the storyboard could actually read what I thought inside?! Like they thought “Make it like this and it will be very Urobuch-esque~~~” (lol)

>Q – The battle scenes really got that “Urobuchi feel”...

UG – Well...Of course I am very happy to see that got done that way, but while I feel happy, I also got a feeling of being done in. Woah, they could really do me in this far, like that. And let me go back a bit, perhaps because I had already fulfilled everything that Shinbo asked for, the remaining concern was how to change it into video images. And if we talk about “being given a free hand” it seems it was not just me myself, when I asked around I found that Aoki-san also got a free hand, Inu-curry-san also seemed to have a free hand... It was like in a situation where you usually need to match the paces when you are going for a three-legged race but you suddenly find that you don't need to tie your leg with another person's. Cheating in a race (lol) Although everyone was running by themselves, somehow all the paces fit in well with each other...

In other dig-ups, Madoka's popularity seems to rival that of Haruhi Suzumiya already. But will she be able to defeat SOS-Dan on their own field? :ohoho:

One of the AMVs to make you laugh, sweatdrop, but most likely both. :XD:
 
While the show's being postponed till kyuubey knows when, seems like Walpurgisnight won't be postponed till episode 12. :plot: :plot: :plot: :plot:
Urobuchi's recent tweet expresses his hope to hear an announcement soon (as exactly in "I hope there will be an announcement soon"). Should we let it stir up our hopes? Probably, since nothing else does. :uh..:

And for Nick Hunter's spampic hour: the jokes concerning Homerun's obsession with Madoka seem to get increasingly old, but this one still gave me a good laugh. :XD: :XD: :XD:
 
I could almost hear the SFX voiced: "Homu... homu... homu... homuuuu~~~~" This homu thing is one of the wierder but undoubtedly cuter memes spawned by the show :XD:

And here's a neat recap of all that happened so far in the show. :ayashii:

EDIT: moe. there can never be too much of it :dote: :XD: :ohoho:
check... the... sandbox... do I really see what I see there? :white:
But THE mindscrewing pic appeared when someone saw the parade I posted above and decided it should not only appeal to male audience. Cue the option for girls... provided they'd want him

I guess I could reproduce the dialogue from episode 8 now...
Hitomi: you know, Kamijou-kun, our mutual friend, Sayaka Miki, actually cares about you more than she can express...
Kyousuke: yeah, I noticed, but I can't really return her feelings... I'm, er... well... you see...

I think my imagination needs some bleach and morning lescue :...: AND EPISODE 11 ALREADY :wai:

EDIT2: ROFL... but really, poor Kyouko :desksweat: :XD:
On an unrelated note: I dag into the thread and found out we've posted whole 10 pages without any new episodes to watch. 4chan would be crying tears of pride. :ohoho: I'll do with a different kind of tears, upon reading my own post on page 70:

According to the official site, episode 11 will be delayed, presumably until next week.

AND. I. MUST. SCREAM. :orz:
 
OMG :uh..: when is episode 11 coming out :stupidtable:
Im like gonna die without episode 11 ! :imdead:
Anyone has any leads? :waii:
*cries* :wai:
 
Nothing definite, only speculahs about the production being finished and MBS being mean. Neither is confirmed officially.
 
One month anniversary... Anyone care to celebrate?

Neither is confirmed officially.

Oops, looks like the latter is:

Apparently the delay being MBS's fault is all but officially confirmed

http://yarareyaku.com/archives/51768319.html

As we know from a week ago. The episode is done, several staff members have watched it.

MBS just refuses to air it and refuses to provide an answer why they won't air it besides "it relates to the recent tragedy"

And if you're wondering why MBS has so much influence in this is because

1) They sponsored the production of the show
2) They have an exclusive first airing rights. If they don't get first broadcast of the show, no one else, Internet broadcast including, are allowed to pre-empt them.

Moral of the story: be careful of the clauses in your contracts

:imdead:

Next time, Shaft, take Nintendo for sponsoring :ohoho:

Oh, fake soundtrack

If these guys keep at it until mid-May, they may reach quality level where we'll be trolled into thinking it's a leak. :XD:

EDIT: A take on some magical girls we didn't get to see in the show... or did we? :white: :ayashii:
EDIT2: "Hurry up, Sakura, that company over ther is creeping me out..." :plot: :plot: :plot:
