Manifesting a release date at tonight’s event
Round 1A
Who's the saddest gay?
Homura Akemi (Puella Magi Madoka Magica)
Jonathan Sims (The Magnus Archives)
Don’t know whether I should be disappointed she lost or happy she lost because that means we can pretend she’s happy(ish)
i have two sides
you're lost at sea, fire girl
I also found a new way to read Madoka after my latest rewatch. The friend I was showing it to pointed out that even the simplest of actions are super exaggerated and I thought “huh, they usually do that in stage plays when so the audience in the back can see better” ex:
Then I realized: this is on purpose. The way the whole story is told is privy to a stage play.
The very first things that happen are the curtains opening and Madoka entering centre stage.
The sets, too. Ik the chairs are symbolic but it also is very much spread out like it’s on a stage
Especially the shadow play with Kyubey, it’s a common thing utilized in stage plays.
Most of all, Walpurgisnacht is LITERALLY THE STAGE-CONSTRUCTING WITCH.
Walpy puts the play in action by killing Madoka and Mami in the first timeline. From then on, Homura is forced to act out the same play over and over again helplessly for times lines and time lines. Her lines become scripted, she’s become an actor and in the theatre witches play.
Ooh, that’s a good observation. (Also note that the structure of the story is straight out of a stage play, too, just a very old kind - main series PMMM is literally a trilogy in the original ancient Greek sense of the word with Madoka as the character linking all of them.)
Also intersects really interestingly with that one Japanese fan theory I’m all in on that never caught on over here, namely that Homulilly (or actually I think Akuhomu, especially after the MagiReco anime) is the core Witch around which Walpurgisnacht accreted... after all, Homura’s actions are becoming more scripted and moreover she comes to see everyone else’s actions as more and more scripted too, no?
I’m glad that theory is popular in Japanese fandom, I’ve been silently supporting it for years. Also, isn’t it odd that the long-awaited sequel to Rebellion is named after Walpurgisnacht, a character who wasn’t so much as mentioned in Rebellion? Unless…
Sayaka is probably my favorite character to draw out of all of them.

Hey PMMM Tumblr, was anyone here legitimately disturbed by the Soul Gem reveal? How their Soul Gems are literally their souls? Everyone I see and know agree that it doesn’t seem that bad.
I'll use this blog for madoka blogging bc fuck it. At first I agreed, but after thinking it through it is pretty bad, but you need to know what it feels like. Lately I feel like I'm disconnected from my feelings, interests, memories, the world etc like my soul is outside the body. That's the thing that's disturbing to me about it
That makes sense! It really feels like “if you know you know.” Some people will get it and others won’t. Especially if you’ve experienced disassociation.
Thank you for your input!
