Gah, I'm so glad that the episodes are airing back to back. The episode left off on a pretty big cliffhanger.

Let's see what Madoka is capable of! >:3

I loved this episode! The conversation between Madoka and her mother was deep. Finally we get some proof the teacher and Madomama really are friends. Homura almost becoming a witch made me GASP. Okay, next episode, NEXT!

So, I really like Kyubey. He's cool.
And except for Madoka finally finding out about Homura, and suddenly, elephants out of fucking nowhere, and Unlimited Rocket launcher Works,and dat cliffhanger, this was a pretty boring episode >_>
Even though Homura actually did collect quite the arsenal of weapons over time.

Luckily, that cliffhanger won't bother me that much, since I'll just go end this now.
Protip: I don't really check the forums anymore, so if you want something, take it on my profile.
Is it time for my long-awaited return to the forums? щ(゚Д゚щ) Nope™, probably not.

As Homura battles the final witch on Walpurgis, and the city in a state of emergency, this was probably what lead to the delay of broadcast. An anime showing people in disaster shelters while a the same thing was happening in real life, isnt exactly tasteful. If you care about the shallow character development of the side characters, then go ahead and watch this forgettable episode. You can probably just skip right to the finale.

Rough version of Nutbladder's script is out, just rewatched it with subs.

Most things I either understood or guessed during the livewatch, but there are few interesting details. If not for Incubators, we would still run naked in caves? Oh God. And I thought that furry creature can't bring any more depression. Still, I somehow hope that he's not right about that.

And it's kind of hard to believe that there were so many magical girls throughout the history, yet nobody ever guessed what's going on... and now so many of them meet in the same city? That's one of those few moments where Madoka Magica doesn't make much sense.

Homura was so badass with her impressive arsenal. Her fight with Walpurgis Night is definitely a big highlight of the episode.

That Kyubey... still manipulating Madoka to arrange a great chance for contract (I mean, the scene before Madoka leaves to meet Homura) ;] It was an interesting twist. But Junko finally agreeing for her daughter to leave the shelter was... unrealistic, to say the least. It was executed quite well, but still I can't imagine any real mother doing this...

Overall... well, not the best episode of the series. It may grow on me, just like ep9 did (I found it boring after the initial watch, but after some time to think, follow the wiki, and rewatch one or two times, my opinion about it went significantly up), but for now I find it just mediocre, by Madoka standards.

Haha, I was doing it with several steaming sites! We are all seriously nuts. XD

Loved this episode just because it's finally airing again. Daaaamn, Homura has so many weapons accumulated; loved the BGM that played during her skirmish with Walpurgis. Did Madoka seriously just apprivoise? Here we go again.

On to the final episode...

It was worth the month long wait, it was worth putting up with gg releasing everything BUT madoka 11/12 while I frantically refresh the page, it was worth hiding from /a/ and other forums to avoid spoilers.

Soo good. I just love that fight scene with Homura...it was amazing.

Yeah been refreshing pages here also been waiting for these episode for awhile gonna say so far it living up to my expectations of being epic no ending theme in this ep was a slight let down i wanted to see if they did it properly this time since several time the end to the show was done incorrectly btw if you think searching for a place to watch it is hard try being one of the guys that adds it to 3 diff sites for you to watch its a pain in the ass but in the end its worth it

Homura only needed one line in the whole episode: BOOM!

Can anyone confirm me is the rocket laughers in the river are S-300 anti-air missiles?
"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."

And HOLY F***ing ***t, QB's logic about prayers and wishes, it blew my mind. Is that realism at it's purest?

The fight scene? pure win!!!!
Did Homura order all those weapon caches from the soviet and US? LOLOL

Idk how this would be considered as as being "better" since ep 10 provided us with the background on basically everything that happened in this series up to this point.

I must be seriously nuts because I got up at 4 a.m. just to watch Madoka. But it certainly was worth it.

The first part was just a bit slow and the biggest revelation we learn from it is that Cleopatra and Jeanne D'Arc were mahou shoujo >.<
However, the second more than redeemed for it, it was 10/5 in my book.
Can't wait for the OST to be released, Homura's fight theme was epic, as in 'Carmina Burana way' epic.
I already knew Homura's fighting style was badass, bat this battle made it uber-badass, I love how she uses everything and anything at her disposal as weapon. Some countries' armies out there must think they are going crazy, with their most deadly weapons simply disappearing from the armory before their eyes xD

Oh, a cliffhanger!!! I'm so glad I don't have to wait for the next episode, that would be unbearable *goes to watch ep 12*

Amazing! This was so worth the wait.

Kyubey's more evil than ever. Yet, for some strange reason, I'm starting to like him. He's just so awesomely deceptive, even if that makes him a real jackass.

Thanks, person who gave me this on another site a long time ago, lol.

well, she lived several timelines, so if in each timeline she could aquire just 1 of them after some she'll have a bunch
yeah it sounds like troll logic >_>

edit. just noticed
first scene
it's like there is the shadow of warpulgis on the wall of homura's room
gears up, and pendulum shaped like it's head
it's like they are saying "it's here, here" >.<'

homura was really turning in a witch o__o

So we had Mami's "Unlimited Rifle Works". Now we see Homura's "Unlimited Explosive Works". I'm surprised to see a short series like this actually has some really epic fight scenes.

Episode 11 was almost the epitome of despair, greatly accentuated by the music.
Fight sequence was brilliant.
My usual reaction of screaming at the screen kicked in that the episode ended.
Then I realized I already had episode 12 =D

HUGE BEST CHAPTER...
Heartwarmig, terrible, depressing.... oooh so beautiful.
Excelent action scenes. And adults characters. I surprised me the news would report MAdoka's friends deaths. O.O

From 1 to 10, this episode deserves 11. Seriously. A awesome episode!

Please, please the twelfth is a good end. *_*

Until now, Madoka MAguica is the winter 2011's BEST show so far.
