I watched your avatar's show plus movie for the first time recently. It was ok. Wish I hadn't watched every Endless Eight episode though

Endless Eight is great.

Did you watch the movie? Its probably the best Haruhi content.

Haruhi is still a big blind spot in my knowledge, which is weird considering it was the hot poo poo right when I started watching fansubbed anime. Zetsubou-Sensei ended up being my gateway instead.

That's a pretty 3D animated looking avatar you got there. You'd better watch your step around here.

Hey Fluff, Homoraisen's weird posting boner for me aside, it's my fault for mentioning that mobile setup I saw posted - I'll take a Day Probe for opening the floodgates and own up to it being a bad idea. Sorry.

Yet where is that woman now? Tell me, in what heave does she reside? None of them. Because no God bothered to listen or care. If that is what you think it means to be a God, then you and all your teachings are welcome to do as that poor women did. And vanish from these realms forever.
Anyone else find it odd that, even though there is only like 3 or so dark magical girl shows, that Americans in the tabletop rpg scene are obessed with them? If you don't do trpgs, you may not know this, but like 99% of mahou shoujo games are plays on Madoka. Like, not all of them are bad. Princess: The Hopeful kind of sucks due to lack of vision (what if Minki Mori, Sailor Moon, and Cardcaptor were all true at once), but Magical Burst and Magical Fury by our forums own, Ewen Clueny, is good. Still, why the obession with Madoka in the trpg scene? Was it that influential in the anime scene as well? There is no way it was anything more than a cool odity: popular and probably influential but not changing the definition of the genre away from kids.

I think as a genre Magical Girl has always been evolving/changing with various shows making changes to the formula. Nanoha afaik introduced much more Shonen Battle style action; or at least popularized it; and Madoka opened up the formula for much darker (and edgier) story, world building, consequences and stakes. So now it makes perfect sense to have a premise like I dunno, "What if Call of Cthulu but with Magical Girls?" and it would make sense now because Madoka popularized Magical Girl story telling with much darker themes and this tends to be much more popular among the tabletop rpg crowd I imagine.

I think a very specific type of broken brain latched onto Madoka for a variety of reasons and I'm not just saying this because of an ex who really really wants to be post-Rebellion Homura to the point of spending years trying to create a cult of magical girls and abusive relationships because "it's what Homura would want"!

Alternatively, "it's normie" works real well just like most Urobuchi stuff

Sailor Moon is straight up some metalhead content in places if you actually look at what's going down, like the guy who reinvents murder
