what a defensive tone about a bad queerbaiting show.
The circumstances are slightly different between the two (Madoka's ascension is a trap because nothing good can happen because Urobochi) but both shows are predicated on the basic premise of "girl finding out that the world is not what it seems, human progress has been altered, and she has great power within her that upon exploration changes her from meek, passive entitity to Defining Force Of Existence." The reason why I feel Madoka fails at this retelling is because Lain ends up taking a much more active role in this self discovery. Hell, Lain ACTUALLY engaged in self discovery. Madoka just loving sits there unsure about everything until the absolute final hour, decides she has solved the riddle of the sphynx, and then most of the problems (but not all, gotta get that movie money) are solved. It's barely an arc. All the other characters, even Mami have some form of anything. She's like Shinji on crack, but at least he got in the robot more than once ever. And I'm not even judging "the robot" here for Madoka as "becoming a magical girl" I just mean "doing loving anything at all other than looking lost and being weepy." She's loving useless, just like the show.
But hey, if pastels and wideface are what keep you horny, I won't kinkshame. Just as long as you're honest about it.

When due process fails us, we really do live in a world of terror.
