I confess, I only ever watched the opening once. On mute. Who knows? Maybe it's an okay song?

Also, obligatory popcorn.gif

[1:21:01 AM] Squee: oh god now people are commenting on my status about how great and deep madoka is
[1:21:21 AM] Shawn Daigle: making a status about it was your first mistake
[1:21:29 AM] Aaron: you have brought the madofans out of the woodwork
[1:22:06 AM] Doge the Wow-Crusher: god squee it's obvious the toast represents the concept of almost missing out on the most important things in life and leaving all but the bare minimum behind to chase after it
[1:22:47 AM] Doge the Wow-Crusher: as opposed to you not procrastinating and then actually being able to live a fulfilled life

Quote:

 

[1:22:15 AM] Squee: wow sayaka your lesbian is showing
[1:23:53 AM] Shawn Daigle: oh boy, here comes the transfer student in CCS with some intense staring
[1:24:10 AM] Squee: LOOK EVERYBODY THIS SHOW HAS HIGH SCHOOL LESBIANS
[1:24:12 AM] Squee: SO PROGRESSIVE
[1:24:33 AM] Doge the Wow-Crusher: deconstruction of the magical gaylords genre

Quote:

 

[1:27:06 AM] Squee: LOOK HOW COMPETENT THE TRANSFER STUDENT IS, WRITING HER NAME WHEN THE TEACHER CAN'T DO IT
[1:27:09 AM | Edited 1:27:12 AM] Squee: I hate Homura already

[1:30:52 AM] Doge the Wow-Crusher: we should force Squee to watch Symphogear after he finishes Madoka and hates it for being masturbatory

Quote:

 

[1:44:30 AM] Squee: this montage of how badass she is just makes me hate her even more
[1:44:34 AM] Squee: it's like sasuke all over again

Quote:

 

[1:45:50 AM] Squee: okay Sayaka ranting about moe was actually amusing
[1:46:32 AM] Squee: she seems less grating than the other characters, at least

Quote:

 

[1:46:46 AM] Chrono Ivan: "seems"
[1:46:49 AM] Chrono Ivan: just wait
[1:46:52 AM] Chrono Ivan: you read adna's topic

[1:47:17 AM] Squee: muh katanas

Quote:

 

[1:49:41 AM] Aaron: they're definitely sabers
[1:49:51 AM] Kyle: or cutlasses, not sure what the defining difference is
[1:50:08 AM] Squee: cutlasses have a bell guard
[1:50:15 AM] Kyle: then sabers

Quote:

 

[1:58:22 AM] Aaron: honestly
[1:58:34 AM] Aaron: I wouldn't be surprised if it is a mashup of calvary sword and katana
[1:58:41 AM] Aaron: given ~magic~
[1:58:43 AM] Squee: this debate will only be resolved once I actually see it in the show
[1:58:53 AM] Squee: and even then probably not, because I'm a nerd who likes to bitch
[1:59:00 AM] Kyle: hence
[1:59:00 AM] Kyle: [1:55 AM] Kyle:

<<< who the [radio edit] cares, bitch about it when she starts using it
[1:59:00 AM] Squee: yeah it probably is a combination of both

Quote:

 

[2:05:00 AM] Squee: I told facebook I hate homura, let's see how many buttmads I get

Quote:

 

[2:14:01 AM | Edited 2:14:04 AM] Squee: oh look, now it's time for plot device that could be solved if people would just talk instead of being ~cryptic~ and ~mysterious~
[2:14:24 AM] Aaron: which is that?
[2:14:40 AM] Squee: "This is none of your business" no just [radio edit]ing tell her that kyubey's a manipulative piece of shit god damn
[2:14:49 AM] Kyle: <___________<
[2:14:54 AM] Kyle: not the best of ideas
[2:14:58 AM] Aaron: :awsm:
[2:15:04 AM] Aaron: wait and see
[2:15:19 AM] Squee: hahaha sayaka

[2:20:49 AM] Squee: I actually liked that music that played in the transformation sequence
[2:20:57 AM] Kyle: Mami's theme is awesome
[2:21:31 AM] Kyle: (it's really the only good thing about her)
[2:21:42 AM] Chrono Ivan: absolute configuration!
[2:22:06 AM] Squee: her shit-eating grin when she laid the verbal smack down on homura was pretty great too

Quote:

 

[2:38:55 AM] Squee: also by way of positives, Mami's theme is great and Sayaka greeting all this supernatural bullshit with "no, [radio edit] you, fire extinguisher" was amazing
[2:41:09 AM] Squee: Soundtrack in general has not disappointed, no.

Quote:

 

[2:42:59 AM] Squee: kyubey is watching madoka sleep
[2:44:41 AM] Kyle: spoilers kyubey is hj
[2:45:27 AM] Squee: make a contract with me and become a ki adept
[2:45:56 AM] Squee: "So people really can't see [kyubey]"
[2:46:04 AM] Squee: ARE YOU SAYING YOU'RE NOT A PERSON MADOKA
[2:46:20 AM] Kyle: Haha, she thinks she's people!
[2:47:31 AM] Squee: so apparently mami has quite normal proportions when she's not transformed
[2:47:47 AM | Edited 2:47:57 AM] Squee: it's only when she's in magical girl mode that she has enormouse gazongas

Quote:

 

[2:56:01 AM] Squee: "How about you come along on a witch hunt? You can see what it's like to fight witches for yourself."
[2:56:05 AM | Edited 2:56:08 AM] Squee: Clearly Mami is not a history student.
[2:57:37 AM] Squee: omg irrelevant green-haired girl
[2:57:47 AM] Squee: such a shipper
[2:57:59 AM] Kyle: Girls can't love girls!
[2:58:35 AM] Squee: madoka what do you mean she's acting like sayaka was yesterday
[2:58:52 AM] Squee: you are aware that you're talking about the Very Conspicous Lesbian right

[3:17:32 AM] Kyle: yes
[3:17:45 AM] Squee: why does she have to bother with this time-wasting bullshit about dropping them from her skirt and her hat
[3:17:49 AM] Squee: if she can just do that
[3:17:52 AM] Kyle: style points
[3:18:03 AM] Squee: style doesn't mean shit if you're dead
[3:18:03 AM] Squee: ugh
[3:18:10 AM] Kyle: gotta look cool in front of the little kids
[3:18:32 AM | Edited 3:18:38 AM] Squee: pulling rifles out of your panties doesn't look stylish anyway, it makes you look like a tramp
[3:18:33 AM] Ras: it's not worth it if you don't look cool doing it
[3:19:34 AM] Squee: GUNS OF BABYLON is way more stylish anyway
[3:19:39 AM] Squee: *and* more effective
[3:20:08 AM] Squee: clearly I would be the most boring magical girl

[3:22:51 AM] Phoenix: Yeah I found the rifles out the skirt to be pretty 'pls'. Buuuuut ~anime~
[3:23:38 AM] Squee: Actually the way she's being characterized so far kind of reminds me of G'Kar
