h-holy lord...
my mind-gears are constantly in motion since I finished it, while my body feels numb and empty.
Madoka effectively divided everything by Zero...

Those who are busy complaining should first try to think about what happened instead of whining. It all makes sense once you start thinking.
Brilliant!

I have to say that this ending was rather bittersweet. Yet, I still get the feeling of a cliffhanger. To me it seems that they left a few questions unanswered. It feels unfinished.

Eva ending? Really? :/ Giving this a 9/10 purely because of that WTF ending. Also, episode 11 wasted waaay too much time attempting (and failing) to give Madoka's mom and her teacher some character development. (Also why the hell was that teacher smiling the whole time she was talking about Madoka mourning Sayaka? Did she expect her to be celebrating? stfu, teacher, and go back to whining about your poor love life)

I think I'm just going to consider episode 10 the last episode. Homura goes back in time again, rinse and repeat. But some Homura x Madoka nekkid space loving in between is fine!

That was incredible. I wasn't entirely sure how they were going to end it, but in retrospect this was pretty much the best way to finish everything off. In the current situation, it would just keep repeating with failure each time, so the only possible way to get out of it was to rewrite the situation itself.

Must admit it did remind me of End of Evangelion quite a lot. Similar kind of ending really, what with the recreation of the world and the theatre scene and everything.

Still, I'm pretty damn impressed.

That was the best ending they could have possibly given for this anime. I am very impressed. This anime is getting a 10/10 and its going in my top 5. This anime was godly, and not just cuz of Madoka.

That was quite an interesting ending... I am not sure what happened. I need time to process. It was odd though I think it was still good.

Just wow, this anime became number 1 on my list. just wow. what a amazing ending, im just utterly speechless. madoka became god, and rewrote the universe. I seriously cried through several moments on the last two episodes. Especially when madoka left homura after the universe was remade.

this is the best anime of all time. nothing can beat this show. episode 11 was just beyond epic and episode 12 was even epicer.

Thank you SHAFT.

THANK YOU.

I am pleased.

Though it seems that there are a couple questions, but ah well. Now, shall we have a second season? In a way I hope so, and yet I doubt it could be anywhere near as good.
ToDo List:
1) Write two chapters
2) Read another two chapters of ____ Manga
3) Write two more chapters
4) Watch two episodes of _____ Anime
5) Write two more chapters
6) Repeat

As far as I'm concerned, this was a happy ending.
- The only person who sacrificed herself went out with a smile, and still keeps it to this day, with absolutely no regrets
- The only other one that realizes it came to accept it
- And perhaps more importantly, THE UNIVERSE IS HAPPY AND SMOKING A CUBAN NEXT TO FIDEL

The way Madoka, should we say, ceased to exist in this realm, does not add any bitter to my sweet. But that's just the way I see it, anyway.

Just a few things:

JOAN D'ARC WAS A PUELLA. BITE THAT ONE, FRENCHIES.

First, I understand how Madoka can defeat the grief accumulated by her (and by the way, awesome battle goddess outfit in that scene), but the subs say the comet is her Soul Gem. Does that mean she, by then, is already a goddess, even though she is still in the "normal" universe?

Second... Homura wing wings? I'll buy. But how come they turned from angel wings to witch-like wings? Seriously. That one I can't understand.

New enemies at the end do not hint a new season. Evil always exists: even if Madoka managed to vent out the girl's grief some other way, it still exists in this world, and no white rabbit civilization can grab it all and put it in a coal burner. Remember, the universe has changed, but magic remains: thus it is only normal for that magic to show itself in other ways.

Finally, to quote detective's review:

I am the juice of my acid.
SHAFT is my body, and drugs are my blood.
I have created over a thousand seizures.
Unknown to DVD sales.
Nor known to stream on time.
Have withstood food to create many anime.
Yet, those hands will never hold money.
So as I pray, “UNLIMITED SHAFT WORKS”

I will probably repost this tomorrow when we have more breathing room for discussion. Right now, 4:18 AM. Phew. But it was worth the wait.


UTTER. PERFECTION.

"Tonight, I sit in the eye of the storm. As fire boils around me, I press forward, winds and lightning lashing my wings. I am no match for what I face. Yet I will not back down, and though fear may place it's stranglehold on my heart, courage will see me through. With tears in my eyes, I hit full throttle. My engines become an inferno, and my weapons light up, awaiting my command.

If I die tonight, I will do so fighting for everything I believe in."

Why...can't...I...give...this...an...11???????

Madoka became God, and Homura became even more of a badass.

Kyuubey's still evil as far as I'm concerned (There may not be any more witches, but they're still gonna die, and he still believes witches would've been better and most likely still feels the same way about humans.), it's just that he can't get his way now.

All in all, a perfect ending to a perfect anime, and was worth the wait.

TEN OUT OF TEN AND FAVORITED! Wow that ending was just awesome. It was both depressing and happy. I loved that little bit after the credits where she is all alone fighting against the demons. Such an amazing anime and the first magical girl anime I have enjoyed very much.

so in short, madoka became somehow a god and only homura knows it...
there's no more WITCHES in current time but there is what they call EVIL
mahou shoujo doesnt turn into witches anymore, instead when their grief seed becomes exausted, it will vanish... and its because of madoka...

damn, i never expected this kind of ending, im kinda expectnig madoka turning into a mahou shoujo but not into a godlike thing...

this anime is 10/10

if my memory serves me right, this is my first time watching magical girls, and at the beginning of the season, i thought this will be some childish anime where girls transform into magical girls, waving their wands, fighting villains but unexpected things happened and that what makes it goooood....

I don't think Uribochi gets what a "Happy" ending is but this was brilliant. Completely go against the flow of the genre the entire season, then use every ending trope the genre is known for in the most deconstructive way possible. Brilliant.

On another note,


Finally, this is probably the only time that I can remember where godmoding a character hasn't felt out of place and wrong.

So basically Modoka Destroyed the current world and created a new one Evangelion Style.
