| I really liked this episode. Kyubey looking into Madoka's soul windows (eyes) to see how she would look if she were a magical girl? Idk, random observations that don't mean shit. I love the art so much though, along with the interesting camera angles. I still hate the red haired tsundere chick. I hate tsunderes with my all heart. |
| Now here's a good episode. The fight was beautiful and awesome. 5/5 easily. Sent with Mal Updater |
| seems as if Akemi is Madoka's guardian angel. in this world, being a mahou shoujo is no cute nyan nyan laughing matter. <:3 i'm actually not complaining that Madoka isn't a mahou shoujol yet. i'm glad Akemi stepped in so Madoka wouldn't become a mahou shoujo for a stupid reason. i mean, i like Sayaka and all, but i wouldn't want Madoka to be a mahou shoujol for this fight alone. and that Kyubey REALLY wants Madoka to be a mahou shoujo. keeps on getting her to be that way but luckily cute Akemi steps in. i wonder how this show will go. o wo i'm really shocked they hadn't brought Mami back. i wonder if they will at all? |
| There were some real grating shots in that café scene. I sure it was intended to be jarring but I feel the effect did not contribute much to the episode. When you think about it, all those magic girls would have been better off if they would just listen to Akemi. She may be heartless but she has a better hold on the situation than the other magic girls. If Mami would have listen to her she would still be alive. I will say I’m really enjoying the show, but there is so much you can do with a wish. You can stop wars, end world hunger, receive immortality, determine the future, there is so much you can wish for. I know that they’re only little girls but suspect that some magic girl must have come up with a grand wish at some point. |
| Why is this shaking me up lololol-- I was so scared Sayaka would die in that! I hope she doesn't die... and I hope her wish doesn't backfire. o-o I can see it happening though. Didn't Mami say that a girl wished for someone else before and it didn't end well? KYUBE STOP TRYING TO MAKE MADOKA A MAHOU SHOUJO ashdjsk that thing's so evil... *twitch* I'm glad Homura turned up in time. =w= When Madoka finally does change... it'll be serious. o-o |
| This is getting a little more interesting, but I still don't see why so many people call this a masterpiece. I guess I will have to wait and find out. |

| Madoka still hasn't decided what she's gonna do, huh... it was a nice episode. |
| it's getting better and better. i'm going along with the hypothesis that what you wish for gives you powers based on that, and that's just, amazing. |
| Sayaka has superhuman regenerative powers... AWESOME! |

|
| I love the fact that Sayaka got super regenerative powers because of what she wished for. I'll bet that'll make Madoka think a lot more carefully about her wish. I'm wondering when she will actually sign the contract, I thought it was going to happen to stop the fight but Homura just had to step in. |
| The fight scene was very awesome and the soundtrack is just great, im really enjoying this anime. |
| It's a mahou shoujo and it's fucking awesome because it's dead serious. |
| I really thought that Madoka's about to become a mahou shoujo... well... I hope she's gonna do it soon. Also. The fight between Kyoko and Sayaka = pure epicness ^^ |
| Ah, so Kyousuke's fully healed ... yep. Nice for him. Thought Madoka would take the contract to break up the fight between Sayaka and Kyouko. So she doesn't think there's any point in chasing down familiars since they don't drop Grief Seeds ... only focused on helping herself. Luckily Homura's there to break them up. I wonder what's up with her? I mean, even Kyubey didn't confirm that she formed a contract with him ... she's an "irregularity"? What he heck is that supposed to mean?! |
| The Kyubei is one manipulative little fur ball. Whispering into Madoka's ear to make a contract in order to save Sayaka is downright evil. No wonder Homura wanted to kill it in ep.1. Homura is despite her hostility, actually pretty hones about the Mahou Shoujo business. |

| BECOME A MAGICAL GIRL ALREADY! ._. They've dragged this out way too long now. Also why can't she just wish for mami back? :\ |
 |
| Decent episode, let's look who'll win the battle! |
 |
| Another great episode, but not as good as I expected. I guess the real stuff still has to happen, but this is only the fifth episode. I'm looking forward to more. |
I almost never read discussions after I made my post, if you want to reply PM me or post on my profile page. |
| She needs to stop crying and make a wish its so annoying there's only twelve episodes she should have transformed at like freaking episode 3 |

Also why can't she just wish for mami back? : Besides this anime misses a main boss or a better plot. Just keeping other people from harm isn't good enough for me. Doesn't mean i don't like it tough( i like the action parts and the art),but it could be a lot better. |
 .. |
| 5/5 for me . Liking this anime a lot. Nice fight. |
| ahhahahaha and again, she didnt did the contrat damn it |
| Subscribe plz ^^ http://www.youtube.com/user/TheAlmeidaPT Like plz xD https://www.facebook.com/pages/Otaku-Powa/157576507666018 |
| I hope Sayaka won't die... T___T |
| Kyouku is a bitch, great job of making a very hateable character |
| I wonder what Kyubey gains if a girl makes a contract with him, since he obviously has an ulterior motive... But oh gosh, this cliff hanger! That fight between the two girls was intense, I have to watch the next one @.@ |
 |
| Homura came in a flash!!! Of course she did |
 |
ryanxwonbin said: Good episode overall, although really, Madoka playing the super sweet and nice innocent girl is really getting to me. There had to be a limit on how naive you can be. Homura gained some points for me as well. She's the most realistic out of all the characters so far, not a greedy power hungry girl like Kyouko but at the same time not a naive justice girl like Sayaka and Madoka. Seriously right? She cries a lot, tries to get Homura to babysit Sayaka, and then wants to go with Sayaka to a witch hunt despite knowing that she won't be able to do anything. I know it's a tough decision for her to become a mahou shoujo, but if she really can't turn a blind eye to Sayaka becoming a mahou shoujo and keeps getting involved, then the obvious choice is that she becomes one herself. Well we all know she will become one, but the question is when and for what reason she will make a contract. I'm glad everything turned out fine with Kyousuke, that he can finally return to playing his violin and also that he realized he was mean to Sayaka. The violin scene was really pretty. And it's interesting that whatever people wish for, their special ability is something related to that. |
| Epic save by Homura. Ofc, the episode ends as soon as it got good. >_> Though, the violin scene was touching. |

| kyouko is really annoying seriously.. homura kill her -_- btw.. Shaft is really awesome.. its just looks like bake XD those animation XD awesome I love it... XD |
| It took a few episodes but I think I'm finally getting into this animé. I'm enjoying the action scenes and I'm interested to see whether Homura is gonna kick Sakura's ass, not to mention what it's going to take for Madoka to finally contract with Kyubey and become a Magical Girl (she remained indecisive even when Sayaka was about to be defeated, but then again with what Homura told her and everything else, it's a huge decision to make). It's hard not to be cynical about Kyubey, though. The very idea that these contracts can be made and he has no control over the Magical Girls' behaviour...that just doesn't sit right. :P |
| "Get chance and luck!" |
| THANK YOU HOMURA! <3 AND FUCK YOU KYUBEI >:( he want madoka to make a wish and become magical girl sooo bad!!!!!!! also FUCK the new stupid bitch... she's annoying as fuck... SAYAKA ftw! 4/5 |
| things getting creepier since ep 3, though this is not really my style.... madoka was really naive and annoying... |
     |
| Getting darker and darker each episode I see. That was great. |
 |
| (3rd time watching) There is so much in that conversation between Madoka and Homura... understanding why Homura responds like that. |
  |
| This is getting gud. *v* |
| Haha, I hate how Sayaka acts like everything's fine and pretends like nothing ever happened so easily. Since the series had already built up the whole idea of sacrifice and the act of carrying a heavy burden. They built up such a dark theme and this girl basically decides on a small whim, that everything will be fine and dandy. But because of that, i got excited at the thought that she might regret her decision... *smiles again* oh yeah... I can't wait already. Oh and it's so ironic how the cat thing keeps saying how he can't convince Madoka to become a magical girl because it wouldn't be fair or something But he takes advantage of her with EVERY opportunity he gets and it's happened in EVERY episode so far... |
