Marzan said: Just rewatching Madoka and I can safely reaffirm that this is episode is one of the best I've seen in any anime. It has it all. This ^ Everything. So goddamn good. I love how their situation plays out a little different each time especially. It's a great touch. |
I’m just excited to see my Lord and Savior, Baphomet, represented in such glorious Italian stone. I do hope his eyes gaze upon me and that my allegiance is recognized. |
| Well, this one ep was worth of waiting for in all this show. Thank you, Urobuchi Gen, yours is the glory! |
| Best fukken episode. |
 |
| I'm really confused about something: every time Homura goes back in time, the girls are already magical girls and so is Madoka.They seem do be working together. But when she comes back now, Madoka and Sayaka are not and they only meet Mami later O.o What changed this time? |

| I understand. Didn't see the calender dates right, though I suspected why she was after Kyubey at the start of the show. All makes sense now, |

| Mind = Blown That explains a lot of things. |

| Best anime episode ever! |
| Ohh yes nice to see Mami-san back... Homura's powers! I want it! XD |
| Thought this episode was great, but where the hell is Homura getting these weapons? lol |
| this explains a lot about why homura-chan acted the way she did, and also explains why she seems to not care, as long as she achieves her goal this episode also caused a lot of connections in my head, as in connections to other animes namely: |
| Ah, I was waiting for an episode explaining Homura's motives. I was expecting her intentions to be good, and it's great to know more about her personality. I think Homura is my second favorite character... but honestly, I like all of them, in their own ways. I guess that's why this makes it so entertaining. |
 |
| From the first moments I've started watching anime, I felt it was very similar to Utsuro no Hako to Zero no Maria (my favorite novel), but now that I've watched this episode, they really are so reminiscent to each other, they're like twins. Homura = Aya/Maria Otonashi (Both end up as emotionless girls through endless repetitions who deep inside still yearn for something very humane. Being self-sacrifing for others at that) Boxes = Contracts Kyubei = O? And a lot more, Gosh I'm really liking this anime, didn't expect this. Btw, so that's how she know's that monster's going to appear, she's been fighting it over and over again. |
| I've been wondering, Kyubey said Madoka was able to kill the Walpurgis in one hit, but the previous timeline/s show that she lost to the Walpurgis. What gives? |
RadiGen said: I've been wondering, Kyubey said Madoka was able to kill the Walpurgis in one hit, but the previous timeline/s show that she lost to the Walpurgis. What gives? Because according to this series' logic, Madoka gets stronger with each new timeline. |

| Wow... when Mami tried to kill everyone I was dumbfounded... what an intense episode! |
 |
| ...Wow. |
| Average episode rating: 4.92/5 You can do it anime industry. You can make an episode to top this! *2 years and still waiting* |

| "Also using the OP as ED, with addition of Kyouko and Homura on that mast: Brilliant." Yesss, that was the moment I decided I was giving this series a 10. Sometimes it's just a tiny thing like putting the OP at the end that makes you realize how awesome a thing is. :) |
| Amazing episode. I was totally damn impressed. This is why I really love these kinds of series that involved different timelines. |
 |
| Great episode :O Now it makes sense why Homura was so desperate. She's also changed quite a lot since in the beginning. And I also see why she didn't like Mami before. I can't believe Mami killed Kyouko just like that. It must be lonely for Homura to keep traveling back in time to fix the outcome...great job Urobuchi, with the fate theme. At this point, it seems like no matter what Homura does, it's Madoka's fate to become a mahou shoujo, and in the end, become a witch like all the other mahou shoujo. And now I see the Steins;Gate comparison lol. |
| This parallel world twist was executed flawlessly. It was PERFECT. |
| Great episode. 2 left now. |
| I'm so late. This was an amazing episode. A total mindfuck, but amazing! I just wish the episodes leading up to this could have been on the same level as this one. |
 |
| This was amazing. It's by far the best episode just because it finally adds depth to the story and pulls it all together. I love the development in Homura's character from each time line. Also, this hopeless, endless cycle reminds me of Higurashi. |

| awesome episode.. homura's past is really touching.. I see she really like madoka.. damn it almost make me cry :/ it started to get interesting XD |
| OMG what a show!!! 10/10 |
| This was a completely unexpected and amazing episode! |
| "The will to live is stronger than anything else" |
| There is a reason 95% of the votes are at 5/5 for this one! Muahahaha Homura, or Hououin Kyouma the mad scientist, I beseech you to cross the 1% divergence line and REACH STEINS;GATE!!!! Steins;Gate spoiler, watch out!d 10/5 for this episode, the use of this plot device, and the progression of Homura's character |
| after this episode, my mind is stuck in the same loop. except my mind is raped over and over and over and over and over again!!!!!! how do I stop this ? :| |
| Okay, I've watched this episode twice now, but for some reason I honestly didn't think it was that great. And I feel kinda bad about it because everyone says this episode's awesome and it's rated super high. But I dunno. I mean yeah, it's the big episode that finally explains everything about the mysterious character and how tragic her past is and all the suffering she's going through for her only friend and stuff... Sound exciting, but I was just like "Ehh... Yeah, alright" as I watched it. I've been sitting here for a while and trying to figure out exactly what I don't like about it, but I just can't explain it well enough. I guess I was expecting too much, maybe? Or I guess I thought it was a little cheesy or trite or something? Ah, well. It's just weird. |
| Wow. Homura has my utmost respect. |
| the anime has had a slow start for me but this was the best episode yet |
 |
| Damn, Kyuubey really fucks them over. |
 |
| Well that explain almost every question I had about the story xD Probably the best episode yet. I still have question about that night of Walpurgus (don't know if spelled right). Is it a witch or something else. Something that make me believe that she isn't a witch is that they are fighting in the city instead of a labyrinth. Maybe the night of Walpurgus is just something made to transform Madoka in a witch? I dunno, really lookng forward for how it end. Edit : Homura should ask Okabe about how to solve time problem xD |

| «Time is passing so quickly. Right now, I feel like complaining to Einstein. Whether time is slow or fast depends on perception. Relativity theory is so romantic. And so sad.» - Kurisu Makise a.k.a. The Zombie |
| It's an interesting contrast between ep1 and ep10, when Homura transfer into madoka's class... The backstory is great, but the pace is too fast. It's moving to see Homura, from a timid, shy girl, become a cool, badass one, to fight for Madoka, someone she cared about, someone she wants to protect. However, one episode just not enough to show the character development completely, maybe two episode is needed, to show the frustration Homura suffered, and the changing of her personality. If Homura has became completely cold-blood, doesn't care for others, she may killed Sayaka in ep8 or ep9, but still, Homura will lost her emotions progressively if she keep getting frustrated in the time loop... |
