I’m hosting a Madoka watch party for my friends in a couple weeks because they’ve never seen it. I want to keep them in the dark about the show as much as possible without just flat out not telling them what were watching. How do?
>>
Simple you don't tell em. Tell me it's some hardcore ecchi or something like that or bait and switch what your watching whenever they ask. Or you could just say I'm not telling until we get there

Madoka trailer exists

I would have sent them this trailer if it weren’t for the retards in the comments spoiling things. If I can find this trailer with the comments turned off, i’ll send it to my friends.

Sorry i’ll buy yo a plane ticket

just say its about magical girls fighting monsters called witches and tell them about the surreal dreamscapes in the witch's realms, and the oil-glass animation and top tier OST
>>
>>252956286
Just download the video and send it to them
>>
>>252956469
Oh.
>>
>>252955692
As long as your friends aren't shonenshitters you should be fine. Tell them it's good, ask them to trust you, and if they're not invested by episode 3 then find new friends.
>>
>>252956061
You can use viewpure (https://www.viewpure.com/) to share a link that will just display the video.
>>
Okay, I sent one of my friends the video >>252956061 via catbox along with a description:
>Madoka Kaname and Sayaka Miki are ordinary middle school students that live normal lives. One day a magical cat-like being name Kyuubey appears before them and offers to turn the two girls into magical girls so they can fight monstrous entities.
>Madoka Magica is defined by its strong storytelling, characters, art direction, and unique soundtrack.
What do you think? Is this good enough to send this to the rest of my friends?
>>
>>252958320
>Madoka Magica is… …soundtrack.
For this second part, I’d either elaborate a little more or cut it out completely. The first part is good. Did you ask your friend what they thought?

i love this show but its far too "anime" to show to people imo

At this point in time literally no one is going to be blown away by a cute looking thing having an EPIC TWIST where it isn't actually all sunshine and rainbows and there's actually some some tragedy in it, so don't go into it expecting anyone to be converted to the church of pink god like all the bright eyed children who watched it ten years ago and completely shit their pants over the concept of cute girls dying tragically, it's not special anymore unfortunately.

Just tell them that you think the show is interesting enough to be worth watching and then watch away. Meguca has good writing that I think speaks for itself. That's not a guarantee that they'll like it but it is a genuinely good anime.
>>
Anon although the novelty of madona bring a serious story when you didnt think it was and the twist in episode 3 is a unique experience if you didn't see it coming , the fact is most normalfags simply are not going to watch this unless you spoil that it's a bit darker than one might expect.

So many Madoka threads recently and they all just keep dying...
>>
>>252971180
The holy bible may preach peace...
We must unite under one banner once again and get one single thread to bump limit at a time.
Having threads for each specific meguca is highly inefficient and unnecessary
>>
>>252971180
If there's nothing to talk about there is nothing wrong with that. You don't need to necrobump threads for a whole week for no reason.
>>
>>252971347
Are you really saying that flooding the catalog with 10-30 reply meme meguca threads that die in half a day is better than the slow yet consistent and comfy meguca congregations that would last for up to a week of continuity? really?

And speak for yourself, I contribute to madoka threads all the time. Madoka threads are nice and I think they are precious.
>>
>>252971477
I'm saying the exact opposite of that, nobody should feel the need to force a thread alive with like 1 image post per hour. That goes for 10 threads and 1 thread.
>>
>>252971180
Of course. 4chan is in its twilight years.

I do think the board is slowly dying in general. Stats-wise the posts per day has stayed steady for years but most of that activity is contained within the One Piece and DB generals now which prop up the board.

Help me, dub-watchers. I love the dub, but I wanna say dub Kyubey makes an oblivious error. In ep 2 he says that humans (implying any human) can't see witches, but Madoka and Sayaka (and Mami) clearly can. Their stoic reaction on their face makes me think it's an error, but I guess they already knew they weren't regular either? I swear this made perfect sense to me when I watched it when I was younger, it's mainly their reaction (or lack thereof) that's making me ask. I know that sub Kyubey flat-out says that normal humans can't see them.

Intentionally provocative but with a grating undertone of truth to it, the worst kind of shitpost. The writing has aged pretty well but it is true that there's nothing in it that's going to shock any audiences like it did in 2011, which was the chemical x that made a good show bound to do pretty well a massively grossing franchise both critically and commercially acclaimed to this day. Now that we are squarely in the post covid Game of Thrones Breaking Bad Attack on Titan Rick and Morty Kimetsu no Yaiba MCU Stranger Things John Wick etc era the world of media consumers has grown far too jaded and cynical to be converted into zealots the way Gen and the Shaft team managed to pull off back in that sweet and forever gone time lost to the past. Enjoy your bog standard hyper violent sexualized mahou shoujos full of death and suffering and powerlevels, there's plenty to go around now.

>>252972818
Normal humans also can't see Kyubey so it's obviously because they have been temporarily selected

I've always believed that the writing was what made people stay with Madoka. The quick attention grab isn't there anymore but the good story still is.

If they've already agreed just keep your fat mouth shut and let them experience it purely as possible. I know you're excited but don't cheapen it for them.

>>252976003
It just means eight grade students commonly care about their friends, not that other people don't.

I only started to get back in anime semi recently and watched it a few months back and it still blew me away. Maybe it's because I haven't seen much modern stuff either but the potential is definitely still there.

It wouldn't have aged as well as it has despite inspiring a generation of cheap suffering porn if it wasn't solid at its core, but one of the main reasons the fans never forget it is because they never forget how they felt watching it for the first time, and because it's structured for rewatches they keep feeling that same profound sensation of discovery and wonderment every time they do. They knew what they were doing when they made it.

As I understood it, witches kiss people outside the labyrinth to lure them inside and kill them there, or get them to commit suicide nearby.

Idk, anon. I first watched Madoka spoiled on literally every single major plot point, and it's still in my top 3 anime of all time. How twist is presented in context, how characters react to it is much more important than information contained in it. Great direction can cover for a lot of flaws in a film, and Madoka has superb direction and negligible amount of flaws in the first place.

People still think the first watch experience is the most important one to judge the quality of a show
How retarded can you be. If a story becomes bad because you know what's going to happen, then IT WAS JUST A BAD FUCKING STORY TO BEGIN WITH
Madoka has lived on this board for so long because it's just A GOOD FUCKING SHOW
The goodness of a thing is independent on the contingent aspects, like muh suffering or muh tweeest, rather it is based on the consistency and coherence OF those elements
This is how two completely different objects (from a categorical perspective), can both share the quality of "good".

I enjoyed my second watch of Madoka a lot more than the first one
>>
>>252955692
I have tried to bring the gospel of Madoka Magica to many people so I will simply tell you what has happened before.
One has told me at episode 11 that Homura should just shoot Madoka because that way she won’t destroy the earth anymore.
One told me that Rebellion is just like random noise, and that you can interpret anything into it.
One got so drunk that he does not remember it.
One refused to watch it because it is a girls show.
One saw it and said that he can not relate to it because it is all girls.
One saw it and startet repeating all my own sentences back to me because she wanted to get into my pants.
One saw it and claimed that it was divine revelation, but never rewatched it.
One saw it and claimed that it was deep and philosophical but never asked sincere questions about it as if he never pursued it.
One has promised me to watch it but never did more then 2 Episodes.
One never saw Rebellion aber seeing the OG.
Three(different people independently) watched it multiple times and liked it and then we discussed it but that was the end of it.
Not once have I succeeded in bringing salvation to a person by showing it to them.
Not once have they gained the miracle of SEEING AiYo.

Cont.
>>
>>253028241
Cont.

I fear that the correct conclusion to showing it to people is this:
Show them the original series, do not skip the openings and endings, ban Alkohol.
Do not spoil anything.
Most importantly do not show them rebellion.
Tell them that there is another movie, and that you really like it.
But do not tell them that it is divine revelation because that will make them have wrong expectations, set a mood and direction for it that is in line with the original ending.
Sadly Rebellion can not be shown to people, it can only be discovered and seen by yourself.
Also almost no one ever truly sees it.

I have tried just suggesting it to people, that makes people not watch it.
I have tried watching it with people, that makes people not taking it seriously.
I have tried making people promise me to watch it on their own time, that makes them obeying unwillingly and thus being lost.
I have tried appearing as a mad man who openly says that it is divine revelation, that makes people actually watch it. But not appreciating rebellion.

Rebellion must be seen by yourself and for yourself.
Also be careful that if you try showing it to people you might get a bad reaction and then loose all respect for them. I have lost friends over this because they humiliated themselves too badly in my eyes by the way they failed to see.

OP here, one of my friends didn’t communicate with me properly and now I have to try and and reschedule for a time that works for everyone. Again.

And it’s just with three people, not including myself.

i got a bunch of people at uni together to marathon madokes in my dorm room after me and the other weeb friend found out that most of out friend and friend-adjacent group had weeb tendencies but hadn't seen it
more people showed up than expected, there was a lot of drinking and general snarky commenting on shit, but when ep 3 hit a lot of people started shutting up and paying attention
a bunch of the less attached folks drifted out as the night went on but most stuck around and by ep 10 everyone left was fully invested. when the finale hit there wasn't a dry eye in the room.
shit was a good time and i remember it quite fondly despite being quite a while ago

it's a good show and all i found you needed was to get your audience to sit fucking still for 1-3 episodes. peer pressure helps. other people being around helps. drinking may help, or it may not. but making a watch-event certainly seemed to help.
>>
>>253037669
This sounds nice.
The experience with the original series is that this works.
However with rebellion a different approach is needed.

You need to trust God that he will make them stumble upon it. You sow the seeds and he reaps

"...in order to write a perfect ending for a story you have to twist the laws of cause and effect, reverse black and white, and even possess a power to move in the opposite direction from the rule of the universe. Only a heavenly and chaste soul that can sing carols of praise towards humanity can save the story. To write a story with a perfect ending is a double challenge to the author's body and soul."

It's not actually stated or even really implied in the show why she did it. It's my headcanon that she was planning to destroy her soul gem anyway just to avoid becoming a witch, if the experiment about turning witches back to magical girls with the power of love and courage didn't work. Evidently she still had enough magical energy stored in her soul gem that destroying it was enough to take down Oktavia, so I think she could have still beat Oktavia by fighting normally, but possibly not without tainting her soul gem too much.

I think she did it because she wouldn’t have been able to bear living with killing Sayaka considering how much she relates to and cares about her. Kyoko probably would have witched out or killed herself at that point.

She is pregnant, megucas can't get fat because magic keeps their bodies in peak physical condition.

Mami, she's hot as heck and I like her personality.
>>
>>253077246
none, because megucas are only for other megucas
>>
>>253078542
I think it would be cool if they contextualized the reason for the movie releasing over 10 years after Rebellion is that the megucas have been living in Homura's new world for that amount of time.

Madoka and Mami are tradwife material
Kyouko is too violent but her post-character-development personality is fun

Would never date Homu or Sayaka because they are in love with someone else.
>>
>>253080635
If you could win Sayaks heart she would be worth it same as Homura.
Think about it, Sayaka traded her soul JUST to heal her crush and then Homura went back in time for years to save her love.
A woman like that a super rare. No wonder you only really see it in cartoons

Sayka isn't pretty like homuhomu

Is it true that the dub fucks with the meaning of the show?

A lot of the meaning of the show is in the delivery of the voice acting, so obviously yes.

I don't know, I've never watched the dub. Last year or the year before, someone posted a youtube link to the English dub of Rebellion's flower field scene in one of these threads and tried to argue that it was better than the sub, or at least worthwhile in its own right. The VA work was intolerable and I had to turn it off after 30 seconds.

i thought the dub was mostly fine, but there are some key moments where the dub changes the dialogue for seemingly no reason that sort of undermines the meaning of what's happening. i can think of two scenes in particular off the top of my head:

madoka making her wish:
>japanese
i wish to erase all witches before they're born. all the witches in all universes, both past and future, with my own hands!
>english
i wish i had the power to erase witches before they're born. every single witch, in the past, present, and future, everywhere!

the rebellion scene where madoka reappears to homura and the two destroy kyubey's isolation field together:
>japanese
madoka: homura, you aren't afraid?
homura: no, i'm fine. i won't hesitate any longer.
>english
madoka: you're not scared, are you?
homura: no, i'm fine. i'm not afraid. i'm ready.

the first removing the "with my own hands" really undercuts the fact that madoka is in fact physically present as herself whenever she appears as the law of the cycle to other magical girls, and the second completely removes the context of homura planning to usurp madoka before she does it. maybe these are just minor nitpicks, but given that both scenes where the words are spoken had relatively little mouth movement in the animation, there's no real reason why the dialogue needed to be changed from the original, so it just sort of bugged me.

List the girls in order from most well written to least well written.

>>253082672
I didn't watch the English dub but there is a video on youtube about it.

>>253084416
From best to worse
Homura
Sayaka
Madoka
Kyouko
Mami

I still love them all
>>
>>253084692
How is Sayaka or Madoka better wrote than Kyouko?
>>
>>253085297
Not that anon but it's basically just a function of how much time the show & Rebellion spends fleshing out the characters. My list would've looked basically the same except maybe swapping Madoka and Sayaka's spots.
>>
>>253086087
I would personally put Kyouko higher, Mami has basically no backstory, Madoka's is the show but Madoka as a character is kinda boring same for Sayaka. I like that Kyouko atleast has a complete story and we've seen the lasting effects of it.
>>
>>253077246
Nagisa
>>
Want one?
>>
>>253086789
How do I know she's not just fattening me up for some familiar to eat?
>>
>>253086250
I thought Sayaka was very interesting, the show goes very in depth on her and there are a lot of things going on in her story arc and her psychology in that arc. Madoka I can see but I've come to appreciate the finer nuances on her character over time. People don't usually give much credit to the empathetic beating heart of the story, usually those characters are labeled as boring, but Madoka does a good job of it
>>
>>253087019
That's a risk I'm willing to take

>>
>>253088499
I'm sure that explosion broke at least one bone
>>
>>253088404
Does Mami breastfeed Bebe? And if so, why isn't there any art of it?
>>
>>253090049
I’m calling the police.
>>
But I still don't get the process of a grief seed hatching. Bebe/Charlotte's being stuck to a wall and having a waiting time, and Seiyiku and red-meguca's being instant confuses me. If a grief seed already means you're in despair, would Charlotte have been trapped inside it waiting to burst out? Not sure how it even got in that wall either.
