Some of you need a serious reality check. Dude, I'm not against making money.....but: Madoka is OVER, I think the majority of fans would agree that a sequel or spinoff is unnecessary and it's pointless milking. I'm NOT saying a sequel or spinoff or remake is a BAD thing (Although it COULD turn out to be bad)....I'm just saying it's unnecessary. |

You'd be proven incredibly wrong once the sales numbers came out. No, I wouldn't.......the fact that people continue to buy into the series doesn't mean that I'm wrong to think that this is indeed pointless milking. When K-ON! announced their movie there was A LOT OF HATE towards it.....and unlike Madoka, at least K-ON is NOT over. Let me ask you a serious question: What is the point of making a movie for a series that is OVER? |

Let me ask you a serious question: What is the point of making a movie for a series that is OVER? You're the only one assuming the series is OVER. Did ANYONE behind Madoka's producing ever claimed the series was over? As I said, you're assuming it's over without anything to back yourself up. It wasn't written 'THE END NO SEQUELS' at the end of episode 12, for fuck's sake. |

OF COURSE I assume the series is over, at the end of ep. 12 I think EVERYONE assumed the series is over! To believe that it's NOT over just because they never said there wouldn't be sequels is quite asinine. |

To believe that it's NOT over just because they never said there wouldn't be sequels is quite asinine. And assuming it is over isn't being foolish? Since when are you everyone? The ending left so much room for a real ending, so maybe the movie is actually that. |
| @ Solkiskey and Jmal http://myanimelist.net/forum/?topicid=293392 ^Here, notice that very few if anyone is talking about wanting more or if there should be a sequel.... The majority accept it as an ENDING and do not expect anymore....that is what I mean when I say that "everyone" assumed the series is over. If the producers want to milk the series....then go right ahead. |
| I really hope they avoid a sequel considering how hard it would be to perfect what was Madoka. I could accept it if they do a retelling of the anime in 2 hours or if they have the story happening in one of the alt time lines that Homura went through. |
| It's not over, Urobuchi stated he was working on the next installment of Madoka whatever it is, be it a new season, OVA, or a movie (if the news for movie is true of course). I'm welcoming anything new from Shaft / Urobuchi / Shinbo as long as Yuki is doing the music. ;__; |

| Magnificent. I was hoping for a movie. |

| Awesome! Now hoping that's it not some sort of recap or retelling but a real addition. I do have high expectation, make it come true Shaft! Edit: according to ANN nobody is sure if it's real or fake, if my English reading is right |

| What about all the random Bleach movies? Aren't they fillers? Very conclusive? Elaborate? |
ichigo03 said: The main point is that Madoka ended, the final episode was conclusive, there is no point in having a sequel. |
| Agreed, but I feel like Madoka ended on a weird note. I can't really tell why, either. What if they make a movie similar to 'The End of Evangelion'? |
ichigo03 said: Solkiskey said: Agreed, but I feel like Madoka ended on a weird note. I can't really tell why, either. What if they make a movie similar to 'The End of Evangelion'? lol, you probably don't want my opinion on Evangelion, I consider the whole Evangelion series to be the most overrated thing in Japan and I gave the series a 1/10. Anyways, I loved the Madoka anime, I really don't know whether I should be excited or not about this movie. A part of me feels this could be a bad thing, but another part of me is excited to see more Madoka. I only used Evangelion as an example because it had a movie to complete its ending. |
| My body is ready. |
  |
| I find myself rather neutral to the entire series. I can say that it had a satisfying ending, yet at the same time I can easily see a continuation of some sort. So, a movie depicting a recap with some new material, or a "sequel" would be fine by me. |

| What. |
| interestin... i wonder what the story will be? one of Homuras alternates? the world after Madoka? Mami's past (please yes!) |

| It looks like official artwork but who knows... http://blog-imgs-43.fc2.com/y/a/r/yaraon/ss_20111108024200.jpg Or was it published in old issues of Newtype? :O |
| Please don't believe unconfirmed information. 1. In the previous issue of Newtype, they did announced "a big project in the next issue" but they didn't specify if it's Nanoha or Madoka. 2. HMV_anime's tweet was just a basis-less private speculation. It's not reliable at all. 3. There is no convincing fact in the analyses of the scanned image by the fans. Confusing people by providing unofficial information is not what a newsman supposed to do. This is a news discussion board, not a random discussion board like sankaku. |
| This better not be a troll!! I hope its true because Id love to see more Madoka. A remake, sequel, or anything is fine with me. |

LikeIsaid said: I still hope people do realize this isn't OFFICIAL. http://www.animeotakucorner.com/2011/11/07/puella-magi-madoka-magica-announced-a-theatrical-film/#more-1081 But Newtype magazine said that the movie notification was for a Nanoha movie. Until the Next issue comes out, this isn't official so stop fighting. http://yaraon.blog109.fc2.com/blog-entry-5107.html This says that the movie is a fake. :I I think it's more likely to be Nanoha since their 2nd movie A's is coming out next year and we haven't heard much of it yet. Crossing my fingers though. Anyway, it's always great to have a Madoka movie to me, and I really do hope that Urobuchi-sensei gets this done well. |
| Gonna be just as bad as the TV series. Anime is dead. sadface.jpg |
| I'm looking forward to this. I didn't expect as many people to actually be against it but whatever. |
| What is it about making movies about everything lately? Im not sure what they can do to make this good... but maybe they will surprise us? i doubt it but it would be cool. |
| Meh, not particularly interested in it. But if it means more Sayaka I'll watch it. |
| how can it hurt the original? If it ends up being horrible then just dont credit it as being an actual part and never watch it again, simple as that. If it is good then thats awesome cause more madoka! Madoka is my 2nd favorite anime of all time, and Im not worried of this ruining it for me, because that was an unforgettable experience and no way could a movie ever take it away from me. Im excited because I think it has potential :) |
merc_ury said: Making a Madoka movie is like playing a game of "Catch" with a Faberge Egg. Puella Magi Madoka Magica is perfect from beginning to end. It's iconic and shouldn't be changed, revised, added to or taken away from. That's all I have to say about that. I got it, but next time use a spoiler tag, bro. It helps a lot for those who didn't watched yet. |

Definitely quality anime... /sarcasm merc_ury said: Puella Magi Madoka Magica is perfect from beginning to end. It's iconic and shouldn't be changed, revised, added to or taken away from.. I do agree it will be hard to top the TV series. Despite the exceptional quality of the shows this year (Steins Gate, AnoHana, Fate/Zero...), all which would have easily been anime of the year in previous years, I still find none of them gave me the thrill that Madoka did. |
