EPTBtw how do the movies fit in? Are they like shortened versions of the series or the series from a different perspective? Sequels? Side non-canon stories?

Btw how do the movies fit in? Are they like shortened versions of the series or the series from a different perspective? Sequels? Side non-canon stories? movies are basicly a remastered version of the series, that is to say they do look better and I hope you downloaded the Bluray version of the series, not the movies. The original TV episodes are really bad when it comes to animation quality, they ended up really rushed. The movies also do leave out a couple things and I disagree with Eca, I'd suggest starting out with the series. But yeah, 3rd movie is a continuation so what I said is only about movies 1 and 2. I mean, you're 3 episodes in right? So you know + Show Spoiler + that Mami wished to survive, became a magical girl that way and that she ended up with selfregret because she forgot about her parents in that car accident and only wished for her to survive in the rush of almost dying. And if I'm not horribly mistaken that's completly left out in the movies and other things like that as well. | ||

There is a fancut that uses footage/sound from both tv and movies though. | ||

Everyone who's reading the manga seems to hate her or at the very least not like her while I, as an anime watcher who hasn't read a thing, saw that girl and instantly thought she's amazing. Sasuga Asumi Kana. Can't not like her characters. She's also Nyaruko from Nyarukosan which was a topic a week ago. And as an answer to bigfan from his 10k blog: Well I wouldn't say I liked it... I've got it rated as 4 right now, which is about the same as SYD for me, but I did manage to force myself through the first 7 episodes so far thanks to Hayamin and massive amounts of boredom yesterday. I have yet to see wether I'll ever pick up episode 8. The fact that there's not all that much fanservice does help a lot I guess. Despite being horrible it's a bit more interesting than the bunny-loli-cafe anime which was another thing I checked out yesterday. I only managed to watch one episode of that and instantly put it on hold because it's soooooo boring. wow, even went further than me lol. I've watched 4 episodes and still deciding if I should continue or not. ya, there isn't much fanservice so far which I also think is a good thing  On May 22 2014 01:51 Dark_Chill wrote: Confirmed true ending. One week friends would probably be close to my favorite of the season (Game) if it weren't for that MC. I don't think I've ever seen someone so creepy in anime. Like, people in Berserk and stuff can be messed up, but this guy is just supposed to be normal. He really does seem like by the end he's going to be cradling her corpse. I think he's just very obsessed with her like a first love kind of thing though maybe a bit too obsessed at times  On May 22 2014 05:16 InfSunday wrote: As someone who also hasn't read the manga - Marika is awesome in the anime so far. She's a character archetype that is normally terrible (I still get nightmares thinking about Cecilia Alcott) but something about her is different. She feels a lot more troll, I guess, which makes her more interesting? Hmm. Either way I like her, she and Tsugumi need more air time than silly main girls. to be fair to Cecilia lol, she did have some sweet moments but yes, worst girl in IS lol. I wouldn't mind her getting more air time considering her antics though having Onodera and Kirisaki get the same or more doesn't bother me either | ||

Well halfway through Madoka I can already tell that cat thing is shady as hell. Will probably turn out to be evil or at least some kind of uncaring being who is using the girls for his own end. | ||

After watching episode 5 and 6 now I have an idea what you guys mean when you saying "Sasuga". But nice to know a little bit more of the story. Not as good of a story as Tower of God. I think you would love the characters though in your usual BigFan way. | ||

![[image loading]](http://i.imgur.com/xrM1BRs.jpg) Does it hurt, Fenice? This was a really, really good kit. The arms and legs are really good, the detail is great, almost everything is molded in the correct color of plastic (so very few stickers), and it has toys. It has a clear beam cloak thing it can attach to itself. It has its Buster Rifle, with another smaller Buster Rifle stuck on bottom of it. There are only 2 bad things about this kit. So since I could go on forever about how good it is, I'll just talk about the very few issues it had. 1.) Only 1 set of hands. Basically these real old fists that can hold stuff. No open hands or anyything... However, I corrected this by buying these 1/144 HG sets of hands with posable fingers.... And it took me like an hour and half to get even one of those fuckers built, they are some hard core shit. Like imagine building a normal Gunpla, but you are doing it with like Gear Third hands. Holy shit that was frustrating, lol. 2.) The front skirt is one piece, making crouching poses like above fairly difficult. Other than that, this was a great kit. Highly recommend it to anyone. | ||

Lol I thought basically everyone in this thread had seen it because while it aired it was talked about a lot. Hitsugi no Chaika really is shaping up to be a really solid show. | ||
