I’d ask for the equivalent of /op in Minecraft in real life

2024-03-05 19:18:29 +0000 UTCSome people actually said "the-episode-3" rule started from Madoka.

2024-02-06 13:03:24 +0000 UTCWhy do you question Kyubeys cold eyes towards Mamis death? That poor creature cant do anything for having eyes like that. Homuras non emotion towards her death is way colder than Kyubeys eyes in my opinion. Thats something to think about.

2024-01-31 14:45:58 +0000 UTCMatter, are you me? Next you'll have Made in Abyss ranked as one of those favorites too right? I'm so excited for them to be watching this!

2024-01-31 12:57:53 +0000 UTCTHEY WASN'T READY ^_^ Welcome to the anime that created the 3 episode Rule :P. 14:09 mark - That about sums up everyone's face after the third episode, Remember that thing that Arcane did on the third episode? They only adopted what Madoka mastered. You guys have noticed so many hints up til this point. I look forward to your reactions. Here are a few freebie hints (not spoilers): There is a reason each witch looks drastically different and the settings all look so different. Madoka Magica is one of the greats for a reason, May you enjoy your journey through this warm darkness. May it be filled with Blessings and Curses.

2024-01-30 17:03:07 +0000 UTCI think they were just expecting it to be a "normal" magical girl anime

2024-01-30 13:37:29 +0000 UTCIt's just about the movie they need to watch and where to find it (since it's not available on legal streaming sites).

2024-01-30 05:04:41 +0000 UTCWhat is this info?

2024-01-30 03:58:03 +0000 UTCIs this the first Gen Urobuchi show for either of them? They seem very caught off by things being fucked up and I'm here for it lol

2024-01-29 13:31:58 +0000 UTCThe time display is "0:00" even before the animation starts, so it is difficult to synchronize ......(´;ω;｀)

2024-01-29 11:42:14 +0000 UTCI wanted to share this fact with you guys really quick! And in case you don't personally see it, hopefully a mod can! The "3 episode rule" that everyone is so familiar with in the current era of anime was POPULARIZED by Madoka Magica!!! There were definitely niche areas in the older anime communities that used it before Madoka aired BUT this anime, this silly little magical girl anime, is what BLEW UP the concept of the "3 episode rule" so congratulations! now you know why we still use it today!

2024-01-29 09:54:55 +0000 UTCI just finished watching! Thank you for dropping the first three episodes all at once! Your mods or whoever else suggested that is a lifesaver. The first three episodes feel like they're meant to be viewed in rapid succession, right? Anyway, Madoka Magica is my second favorite animated series of all time, right behind Re:Zero, so I'm very excited to have my favorite reaction channel check it out. Every discussion thus far has been very insightful and exactly what I hoped to see from you two. I'm very much looking forward to seeing more. I sent you a direct message containing EXTREMELY important (but 100% spoiler-free!!!) information about the movie that will be watched after the tv-series. Either Ben/Anna or a moderator may view it; it doesn't matter. I implore you to briefly look it over for the sake of a passionate Madoka Magica fan. I look forward to seeing more!

2024-01-29 06:46:17 +0000 UTCAbsolutely loving this (traumatic) journey. That was such a great discussion afterward, can’t wait for more!

2024-01-29 06:24:22 +0000 UTCThis is my favorite anime of all time. I'm SO HAPPY you are watching this!! Not nearly enough people have reacted to this show and your reactions are always so thoughtful!

2024-01-29 05:48:15 +0000 UTCBtw I read that there was showing in theaters for the show......and the ticket was actually of Mami, and the stub you tear off was her head

2024-01-29 05:46:55 +0000 UTCOn Crunchyroll, the subtitles seem to be embedded into the stream itself. If you select the Japanese audio, the subtitles will play despite the subtitles saying "none" in the settings.

2024-01-29 04:42:32 +0000 UTCThe witch name cards and the other text inside the labyrinths are in "witch runes", a script invented by Gekidan Inu Curry (the animator duo who designed and animated all the witches) The runes are a 1-for-1 cipher for the Latin alphabet, and the Internet hivemind managed to decipher them between the original airings of the second and third episodes.

2024-01-29 04:39:28 +0000 UTCMadoka Magica came out during Winter 2011, Steins;Gate during Spring 2011. When I first watched it as it aired, I kept thinking that Mami was lucky this was a Mahou Shoujo otherwise she was setting up so many red flags The soundtrack is by Yuki Kajiura, one of the best anime composers. I will write more about the music of this anime later, when it no longer would be considered a spoiler

2024-01-29 04:37:19 +0000 UTCThis show is a prime example of why the three episode rule exists

2024-01-29 04:28:06 +0000 UTCIt's not listed as sub but it's under Japanese voice

2024-01-29 03:58:35 +0000 UTCLike, copy the link for the site? Sure. https://www.crunchyroll.com/watch/GYE5XQVNR/im-not-afraid-of-anything-anymore

2024-01-29 03:23:43 +0000 UTCIt seems like Crunchyroll didn’t have a subtitled version available. Could you link us?

2024-01-29 03:21:33 +0000 UTCMight be worth considering switching to Crunchyroll. Not a lot of people have a Funimation account and it is tough syncing things up if you use another platform.

2024-01-29 03:08:54 +0000 UTCFor anyone wondering they posted in a YouTube comment that The Boys will be tomorrow with spy family
