it's such an immaculate work

what an incredible film

i think i am lucky i am not in a more receptive state of mind this movie could destroy someone

i think it's enhanced by having seen madoka before, but a very, very long time ago, and in the less refined form that the tv series was. it made the characters' fates weigh heavier, because while i couldn't recall them precisely, it made every bit of foreshadowing echo louder

this is not a “recap movie” it is a work of fucking art

if you want to watch it i would recommend doing it in a low-noise environment, preferably with headphones, and with minimal distractions or interruptions

i watched the second movie and i cried three times so it's probably pretty good too

the madoka series really is larger than life. i was struggling to find the words for it, and then it struck me, there's none other than… “canonical”. it is a codified myth

madohomu never loses relevancy because it can't. it's canonical. it is the beginning and the end of yuri. it is mythic

‪symptoms of watching madoka can include: hearing madoka background music in your head in ordinary moments of waking life‬

i have seen the third madoka movie, rebellion.

any rumours that i have previously seen this movie and had any opinions at the time are incorrect.

homura did nothing wrong.

this is my sincere opinion

(also, yes, i did cry to some degree more than once, if that's the metric)

@hikari have I convinced you to read To The Stars yet

@hikari @rcombs you’re gonna convince me at this rate

@demize @hikari https://tts.determinismsucks.net

@rcombs @hikari To The Stars is just as important to my conception of magical girls (and thus my sense of self) as Madoka, if not more so

just read the first chapter and you'll fall into its world

@hikari you have to stop now, there will only be pain ahead

@osy86 @hikari If you watched the movie you would know that telling a magical girl to stop is an exercise in futility

@saagar @osy86 worse, the very fate of the world depends on this not happening

@hikari That’s what Apple Vision Pro is for

@saagar unironically

@hikari uhh. its a movie. with a 5.1 surround mix.

why would I watch it on headphones? O_o

@hikari it deserves to be watched in the format it was mastered for ^-^

@erincandescent oh, because the telepathy sounds better when it's coming from inside your head

@hikari ok but everything else about it sounds better on decent speakers :3

(and when the .1 channel isn’t thrown away, as happens when downmixing for headphones)

@hikari Side note: its kinda fascinating that the train station in Rebellion is so obviously Berlin Hbf.

@hikari (though in Rebellion’s version it seems the ground floor is missing and the upper deck might be ground level? Its really hard to figure out how its situated. Which is quite themactic.)

@erincandescent @hikari if the real one had that lighting scheme it'd be a lot nicer 🙈

@erincandescent holy shit???

@hikari based opinion. like literally one of the most defining pieces of art to me

@hikari just wait til you watch Rebellion

@hikari you saw the best one now stop before it's too late
