I agree about Cossette. If you love the animation in this anime then you should watch Cossette. It's a must-see. IMO

Speculating is nice and all but I think people are taking some speculation as fact and speculating from there and that has made them loose a bit of perspective.

I agree with this interpretation, and I think sirn's idea of Madoka's crying scene in the first few seconds of the OP was creative and interesting. But I don't think Kyuubey is irritated and tired of her lack of confidence, but he is sort of "shaking his head" at her.

Wow, I never thought of it like that. That's a really neat interpretation. o_o (Oh, and nice screencaps. :3)

I find it interesting that Homura's presence in the OP is limited to just a few quick glimpses as the screen flashes by to show us something else. The theory has been presented that Homura is actually that cat. I would find that an interesting turn of events. |

-It's way too cool for me to talk about! -I understand that openings contain many hints and nods to future events/parallels/symbolisms and the like, but in my time as an Anime fan, I noticed that taking them too literally isn't such a good idea (this might be a different case here, as the writer here is nearly in full control of the story though) It is a pretty great analysis on the whole opening. Kudos for being so preceptive. Really? There always seems to be somebody who dissects OP in this manner for anime :X

So yeah, in my limited time discussing anime, I haven't seen a frame by frame breakdown of an OP. Of course, I might have missed a few due to how quick discussions can flow here.

I don't know, did my comment really sound that offensive? Edit: For something more on topic, I noticed that there was something brought up about not having any time travel involved here? I guess it make sense to just say her dream was a premonition that overlapped with a dream Homura was having, but then why didn't Sayaka get a dream as well? She did end up being offered the contract in the end as well.

Ok, I´ve figured it out! Someone stole the hidden magic in SZS´s OP that was lying dormant and gave it to the girls in Hidamari Sketch and now the SZS OP has come to get it back!
Awesome insert song, great first episode. I haven´t been this excited about an anime after the first episode in a long time. |

Because it's fun, and we have nothing to go on until the next episode anyway. After all, with all the mysterious information, also taking into account the staff behind this, and the fact that this is an anime-original adaptation where none other than the staffs know how the story is going to be, speculating about these can be fun and engaging. This is pretty much to be expected when a mysterious anime original anime is airing (like Eden of the East and Sora no Woto) and every info available, even OP, will be carefully combed for clues and hints.
