Madoka Magica episode 3:

Freaking Urobutcher...

This is going to happen to Gaim...isn't it? Mami's death was kind of sudden and anticlimactic. I knew she died already, so maybe that made it less punchy. When she mentioned a cake I said to myself "You know...the last blonde-haired anime character I knew that was going to eat a cake died right before then. Well...it's been nice knowing you." I feel like Kamina's death in Gurren Lagann had more of a punch, since he was around for 6 episodes rather than 3 and he went out with a bang, rather than being like "Yay I beat the bad guy!" ^_^ "Oh now I'm dead." x_x and I feel like they did more with him than Urobochi did with Mami. Aside from that it was a solid episode. I just feel Mami's death was sudden and rushed.

Wow, Attack on Titan is an amazing series. I haven't touched the anime yet, but I just finished Volume 5 and immediately went to Amazon and ordered 6-9. My god this series has gotten incredible after the second volume. I must admit, I was a bit worried because I did not really find characters I truly loved until the fourth and fifth volumes when Annie and Levi really made appearances, as they have become my favorite characters up to this point. I cannot wait to see what the series has in store for them as it continues. As for the anime, I'll get to it sooner or later (probably when Funi releases it on BD), but if you like stories about giant monsters attacking people, horror suspense mysteries, this is definitely a good one to check out.

Don't worry, it will get better. After all... this is where the fun begins!

You know the more I hear about Madoka, the more I'm slightly turned off by it. Not because I'm a snob or anything, it's just the ODD in me saying "Don't watch it."

Odd, I honestly think it would right up your ally.

Just because it's dark and from what I've heard violent doesn't mean I'll auto like it

I'm actually not a big fan of magic based series in terms of it being like Madoka goes. The only one similar to it that I go gaga over is Eko Eko Azarak, and that's mostly because of the movies.

Gun, we must pull more people into the Madoka web/Rabbit hole

Oh it's not the dark turns it takes that make me think that you'd like Madoka. It's the fact that it's an interesting, thought provoking and an incredibly well writen story. If you like Gaim and Ryuki, I'm positive that you'll enjoy Madoka.
