Magia Report S2E165 [TFO Scans]

Happy 10th Anniversary to PMMM!

[thoughtfulfangirling]

I... I almost feel like... if you recognize that you might never succeed... and if you recognize too that you might spend eternity doing this... why not let yourself enjoy what time you have with her? 

Seriously. Woo the girl. I’m not saying not to try and keep her from making the contract. Just... do both? And if it happens, enjoy what time you have with her until Walpurgisnacht? 

¯\_(ツ)_/¯ 

I know it’s complicated and things would get in the way but also still... why not? Take a couple of turns just... enjoying time with your love? I mean... I probably would. 

But I guess there’s that whole have to make sure she doesn’t die in the process and fail to turn back the clock.

Maaaan. What would a witch Homura be like? There’s a terrifying thought. Especially now with all the context. 

ONLY TWO EPISODES LEFT WHAT IS THIS SHOW GOING TO DO IN TWO MORE EPISODES??? 

[thoughtfulfangirling]

This anime ain’t messin around!! 

I mean, not that I thought it was. But hot damn. 

@docholligay, you wanting me to get to 10 makes entirely too much sense now... 

I honestly wouldn’t have known if Madoka would have it in her. Though I can only suspect her witchy conversion is on it’s way at this point. Sayaka, Kyoko, and Mami all dead and the realization that she too is destined to share their fates. 

So like, yeah, I find it super cold of Mami to respond so quickly like she did, and while it makes sense, just taking out immediately the girl she’s known for the shortest period of time.. and the LEAST LIKELY of these gals to ACTUALLY become a witch imo... fucking tragic. Poor Kyoko!! 

But even if Mami had had time to think it over, I’m sure she still would have come to the same conclusion, but the others would be more prepared for her to take matters into her own hands again. #MamiisReaper ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ 

I can’t help but just say again: this anime does not fuck around <insert clap emoji>

[thoughtfulfangirling]

Okay. So. 

I think I might have to nix the idea that Homrua doesn’t go back more than once. 

Still not certain on it. 

But. 

I thought somehow during the fight Madoka was going to despair and become a witch. Which like... yeah... out of character. Weird. But alternate timelines and shit. 

But dead? Not having become a witch? Not likely

Because Kyubey wants Madoka to live long enough to become a witch. That is his goal. His main prerogative. 

AHAHAHAHA But for the LIFE of him, he can’t get Madoka to despair. 

At first, I thought he granted the wish so that the transformation would happen over and over and over again. 

But no, he’s using Homura to keep trying and keep trying. That’s my current guess. Because when she dies, he’s thwarted; when she fails to become a Magical Girl at all, he’s thwarted. 

It’s why he let Kyoko die when he could have told her it was useless. It was okay if she died. It’s okay if anyone dies. So long as Madoka makes the transition to witch. 

As soon as that happens, he’ll do all in his power to keep Homura from resetting. But she has reset it more than once. Because she’s fought the Walpurgisnacht in Madoka’s dream. I kept finding myself unable to fit that into this idea I had, but it doesn’t fit. HOW MANY TIMES HAS SHE TRIED THEN? 

I’m just back to agonizing over that. 

[thoughtfulfangirling]

Omg it IS!! IT IS a flashback to the previous timeline!!!!!! 

Holy shit!! 

LOOK AT HOMURA!! 

LOOK. AT. HER!!!

I feel a tragic tale coming to harden her and change her so much from this moment and I’ve only gotten like three seconds of her!!! 

I kind of guessed this for 10, BUT I WAS STILL NOT PREPARED!!

Look. at. her. X~D 

Stopping time so she can steal guns from.... someplace ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ 

BUT WHY DOES SHE GET A BAG OF HOLDING??? Ha!!!!

[thoughtfulfangirling]

It’s an exceptionally terrible gif BUT I DON’T CARE! Look at these twoooooo

THEY’RE SO CUTE!! 

[thoughtfulfangirling]

Okay then!!! 

Honestly, I was expecting this to be dragged out a little more even than this—Madoka making the wish so we get to see that she does this all for Homura. 

But this was nice. 

Awwww, there was a reality where Mami did have someone to fight besides. Except even here we know it didn’t turn out happy for her or else Homura wouldn’t have come back. 

ALSO MADOKA AS A MAGICAL GIRL IS SO CUTE! 

And it doesn’t hurt like it otherwise would since it’s not the current reality. 

I GET TO JUST ENJOY SOMETHING FOR ONCE!
