I fully agree. After all, one should always focus on making the story and characters good first, before going for themes and symbols. That is why I have always loved this series.

Does this make Kyubey... Robin? And since he's a dick, I guess that means he has to be the Damian Robin? My god, it all fits.

I really love the flavor that they went with for the Nagisa-themed popcorn flavor. If she doesn't turn out to be you-know-who, then they have done a glorious job of trolling us.

What if...

Spoiler for Adding onto Candeloro's Point:

Might as well say that I have no idea as to what's gonna happen here. Urobuchi did say that it is going to "divide the fans", so take that what you will.

On another note, do you agree with the following complaints made, and if so, do you think this film will address them?

Well, whether you agree with it or not, I don't see how this movie could address any of it, since it's basically a new story.

The ending was also worse than I remembered. It was a goddamn reset button happy ending to a show that didn’t deserve one.

Aaand I stopped reading here when he completely lost credibility.

lol that guy based his score on the movie and lowered the series score because of that.

Homura is Thrillkiller Batgirl.

Madoka is Robin.

Besides Doki Doki Precure of all anime did the Batman angle with Cure Rosetta.

Have you guys see the trailer...well i guess so....this is one of many interpretation of what happen in the trailer...which i think would happen and i think fit with what urobuchi said about it would divide the fan...

LightDragonman · 2013-10-24, 22:44

Wow..........talk about dark.

Triple_R · 2013-10-24, 22:48

Madoka Magica already has one Satan-like figure. His name is Kyubey.

We don't need Homura to also be a Satan-like figure.

Still, that made for an interesting read at least. And it certainly would explain Mami and Sayaka going after Homura. At the same time, I definitely hope Gen doesn't go for that. It would likely ruin PMMM for Homura's biggest fans.

Endscape · 2013-10-24, 22:56

It's scary that I can't dismiss that theory out of hand. That's just the sort of thing Urobuchi would do, not to mention I remember hearing that he said in an interview that the movie would divide the fanbase.

To think I was worried about Sayaka (I still am, though). This is beyond my wildest fears.

Allium · 2013-10-24, 22:57

So where does the new magical girl - Nagisa Momoe, if I'm not mistaken - come in?

Haven't the foggiest, though I've heard dark rumours.

By the way, here's a commercial about the upcoming movie.

I'm increasingly thinking that the more flashy "Group of All 5" shots are just promotional shots and aren't actual narrative content. I mean, unless Gen is going full Pretty Cure with this, those shots won't fit at all.

It's interesting that the Homura vs. Mami fight makes it look like they're trying to kill each other (seriously, a gun shot at point blank range to a person's head will obviously kill that person), but Mami stops what looks like a Homura suicide attempt.

Kyouko and Sayaka in the large Tea Cup Fair-Ride was just lolzy to the extreme.

Should be very pleasing for fans of that pairing though, lol.

Candeloro1 Member Join Date: Oct 2013	Spoiler for Spoiler theory: My theory is that we will see Kyoko's witch form Ophelia on this movie, on some pictures we can see there are aqueducts zigzagging on the background. These aqueducts are very similar to the one's in Ophelia's barrier.
