Demons analysis. Not quite sure if it's speculah or actually derives from some draft leaks. :ayashii:

Also, Oriko vol 1 translation is complete.

Most common comments revolve around "it's darker than the anime". Who'd have thought it possible... :ohoho: But I have to agree, the manga is downright grim.

So it looks like the whole thing takes place during the Groundhog Month, since Homura is apparently a magical girl. Mami meets Charlotte but survives her. What's weirder is that Kyouko's apparently in Mitakihara (although we only see her and Mami interact in the third chapter, so it's possible Kyouko came here in search of Oriko). Madoka and Sayaka remain in ignorant bliss, and Homura seems to behave like a watchdog for every magical girl trying to approach them even accidentally.
It's hard to say if we'll get info on Walpurgis Night (it should be existing already, so it doesn't seem to be Oriko, Yuma etc.). Oriko apparently foresaw Gretchen's birth and tries to prevent it. The methods, though, are still unclear - why does she use Kirika to kill magical girls around, but makes Yuma contract? Of course, seeing what grief Yuma burdens, her magical power as a Puella Magi and a consequent witch shoudl be significant... but then why have her become a magical girl in the first place? Maybe to deal with Walpurgis Night so that Madoka doesn't have to do it? But instead of killing a whole crowd of Puellae Magi in Mitakihara, wouldn't it have been better to team them up and outnumber WN? :confu: Oriko's intentions are really a mystery...
Also, this incident practically left the city without magical girls right before WN's arrival. I find it strange how Mami and Madoka wouldn't have noticed it in earlier timelines (not speaking about the consequent ones, since Homura might have known it already and done something about it). As Madoka had already contracted before, she should have been Oriko and Kirika's target in the past (if Oriko's visions featured her at all, of course). And if the accident only took place in this timeline, what exactly could have Homura changed to cause this turn of events? She's the only one who seems to bring turmoils to the course of time.

And Volume 2 is only in June... :wai:
 
Since this anime ended and there's only posts about the scrap drama/manga/fanarts, can we move this thread and use this to talk about music? :knife:
 
chapter 2 is gritting on my nerves almost as much as episode 9... :hide:
imagine if Yuma didn't make it on time :omg: Kyouko would... :cry:

Urobuchi is Urobuchi to the end. :white:

the theories depend on whether
we were shown all the timelines in the anime or not. In the latter case, it may be timeline 4 or any other inbetween this and the decisive timeline... otherwise it's TL4.
But as it seems to happen during the same time period as all other timelines, I'm still wondering what was with Oriko, Yuma and all this PM hunt in other timelines. :ayashii:
Oh, and hopefully Mami won't get killed the first thing in Vol 2 :hide: :comeback:

Btw, am I the only one spotting some similarities between Oriko and Sharon from Pandora Hearts? :ayashii: :plot: :XD:
EDIT:
:nophoto:

Apparently it's from Madoka Cafe. :XD:

EDIT2: Oh lawd. The days of Motteke! Sailor Fuku and Hare Hare Yukai... make way for a new hymn... :ohoho:

@ EDIT 2: LoL wtf , are the ones in the behind lines dance in another song because their movement have nothing to do with the ones of the first line :desksweat: :XD:
 
Dunno, I spent half the video suspiciously watching Charlotte... :XD: I thought she was up to something.

EDIT: a short report from a PMMM event at some anime-centric cafe...

Thank you for sharing! :sohappy: I'm really turning into a Kyoko/Sayaka shipper...

EDIT: Oh yeah I tried making an AMV with Kalafina's adore...it's not great or anything (basic software and still not very good at it :cry: ) but if anyone's interested...http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Oj1i5aBDaFg
 
Okay, I just read the story synopsis on Wikipedia :plot:

I have to admit, it's original at the very least. (Actually, it could've been the ending for Lost :ohoho: ) It doesn't really make me regret not watching it yet...I just don't think I'll like it...but now I understand why there were completely different moods for the opening and ending themes, especially given the final episode.

I, too, thought that this song would suite PMMM... and now I see the idea realized. Way to go! It looks great and very touching. :sohappy:
and in the form of such AMVs, both Sprinter and Adore now have very dynamic "PVs" :psst: /*runs away

EDIT: There can't be enough of Sayaka.

Thank you! The song just seemed perfect for the show and the idea kept haunting me...I keep hoping someone can do better though.

The Charlotte OP and witch/Puella Magi strike made me fall off my chair :XD:
 
Great previous Urobuchi works image

I ended watching madoka episodes 1 and 12 today for doing this: :nophoto:

Episode 1 is creepy to watch now.
 
I agree that the songs fits very much to the Madoka (especially the lyrics) so if Kalafina would do the OP for it too, adore would be the best choice.
 
Episode 1 is creepy to watch now.

Indeed. :XD:
But much creepier are Kyuubey's calls. "Help me!" A cute animal, wounded, breathing heavily, trembling from pain, evoking pure distilled compassion... UNTIL YOU WATCH EPISODE 8.
Kyuubey, you magnificent, artistic bast... :knife:

The Charlotte OP and witch/Puella Magi strike made me fall off my chair

I was close to the "desksweat" position when I read Mami's plate. :desksweat: :XD:
