Madoka Magica - Novel Thread

Thanks. |
So any expectations about this novel?
I heard it might be based off of the anime's original uncut script. |
Unless Gen himself is writing it, I don't really expect too much more in the way of backstory than the anime and manga had. The most I'd expect is maybe deeper insight into the thought process of characters.

Mine would be: 1) More Sayaka in action (before Mami died). 2) Homura is less cold. 3) They all team up to kill the witch (with the exception of Sayaka, who still dies anywhere, no matter what the source). |
Some pictures of the novel at C80.

Is this a C80 only release?
Magica Quartet....that includes Urobuchi no? |
Its actually just a pre-release at C80. A limited edition is officially being released on August 14.
The novel is based on Urobochi's original script, but the one who is writing it is Nitro+'s Hajime Ninomae. |

The novel seemingly adheres to the manga's rules of Magical Girls maintaining their magical form when they die. Interesting.
Also, that Mami picture is unf. I'll leave it up for your interpretation which one I'm referring to. |

The difference is that the novel is based on Gen's original script before he revised/cut it down to the anime and manga's script. So there are things in the novel not shown in the others. For example, the wiki has two translated excerpts which are flashbacks of Madoka's childhood with Sayaka. |

Well, I made it pretty obvious to anyone who would get the reference.

There's gonna be a novel?! *waku waku*

In a nutshell, some of the illustrations are no-holds-barred. |
You have to agree the Sayaka and Kyouko one is really sweet though
|
So no one else looked at the last pic of Homura and realized what the ending of the anime actually meant? Poor Homura. :(
