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

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

why would I watch it on headphones? O_o

@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.
