i first watched madoka, the tv series, more than a decade ago. i just saw the first movie for the first time

what the fuck

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

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

@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
