Just a fun point, since I could hog the conversation forever and it would just be Klein and I going back and forth about this Anime forever.

My sister fucking hates Madoka. I thought that was hilarious. But it's also interesting because I don't feel any particular way for her, not like I do Homura, who I consider the "true" protagonist. I feel like Madoka had no personality throughout the show. She's an observer to all of the events that occur the show. It feels like she's already a concept, even before she goes full-on God-Mode.

All that being said, it made me wonder why Homura was so focused on saving Madoka. Like, she was cool, but not that cool! But it made sense. The first couple of times, it was because Homura was trying to save her friend. But after 30, 40, however many times she relived that week, Homura probably becomes obsessed, not with Madoka, but with what Madoka represents to her.

Fuck. This show is so good. Watch Rebellion, Klein, I neeeed you to.
