The Faust quote does make me suspect that all is not right with that contract. Giving up your life for one wish is just too much.

For the second point, it's labeled as an ending, of course it's meant to be an ending. The ED animation just isn't ready yet. |

the "match" is a smoldering piece of rope its more similar to a flintlock, although really, its a magical anime gun its not the same, in that the hammer just hits a gem or something instead of igniting gunpowder, but Mami's doesn't use gunpowder I assume. |

It could just be SHAFT's attempt at doing something unique or......they could just be lazy and cutting corners.

Well it wouldn't be Shaft it wasn't bizarre. The underlying concept behind the show is still pretty stock as most magical girl shows are, but at the least the show manages to set itself apart with a distinctly unique artistic style, great music and pretty impressive animation. If Shaft was doing some of their usual corner-cutting animation techniques, it isn't as obvious as other works.
Again given the amount of work they're putting into this, I'm guessing they're betting a lot on this show's success. As it is, it looks to be a pretty good hit than a big miss

The other possibility I had was that the Grief Seed (described as a "witch egg") actually only becomes able to produce more witches when a magical girl feeds it darkness from her Soul Gem. Like... they fertilize it, kind of. In that case, the magical girls are being used by the witches for their reproductive cycle (the obvious implication being that Kyubey is a witch or on their side). |

This episode was pretty awesome. Mami looked incredibly cool when fighting the witch with her muskets.
I still feel like Kyuubey and Mami are hiding something, and that maybe Homura is a good person who tried to warn Madoka about the truth of being a mahou shoujo.

well only time will tell if Homura is a Dark Hero
and her goal is to not let any other girls become mahou shoujo because of the theory of equilibrium and the curse and kyubey is a freaking demon in a cute rabbit costume and we get to see a GOOD ENDING WITH ALL OF THEM IN A SOMEWHAT SHOUJO-AI relationships |

Her mother seems like quite the ruthless corporate shark. She even scared poor Madoka. At least that explains why their bathroom is so huge. They must be rich. I wonder if we are going to get a "bathroom scene" every episode.
Even with all the explanation I was still complete absorbed by the show. A first time for a magical girl show to have this effect on me. Maybe its because theres an air of creepiness about the show. if last episode the blond magic girl use gates of babylon gun version then this episode she just used unlimited gun works. That battle was pretty cool, complete with awesome music. Last edited by bigdeath; 2011-01-14 at 02:55. |
