Madoka Magica's TV series ending didn't make me feel sad. I found it beautiful and uplifting.
I generally don't like shows that make me feel sad. But I do like shows where the main protagonist is truly challenged. Because strong challenges tend to bring greater intensity, up the stakes, increase the sense of drama and suspense. Perhaps more importantly, strong challenges show what a character is made of.

The catharsis probably didn't work for me. I'm prone to losing the feeling of catharsis the more suffering the character experiences or when the show was created with the sole purpose of generating negative feelings.

I completely disagree. I also completely disagree with felix's last post, but this post has already gone long enough, so for now I'll put aside the specific points of my disagreement with felix.

Visitor message please. I'm a bit interested to hear about those.
And yeah, still on a tangent. Anyone, feel free to steer us back.
