Holy cow, seriously, give this anime a shot. I was not expecting to be hit with the feels in the final half once everything hits the fan. It's basically Madoka with mecha in a battle royale. And it feels like a passion project rather than a cash grab.

Absolute hidden gem.

I remember seeing an episode or two a while back. It invoked Madoka, like you pointed out, as well as a bit of Rayearth and the Wataru series because of the super-deformed robots.
