Hm, I have to say, I really love Madoka Magica. For a 12-episode series, the way it sets you up for certain expectations... only to completely twist that around into a much more in-depth, dark mahou shojou anime is one of the most prominent aspects of the show. Also, the A MAZ ING art style in the witch barriers borders on animation and abstract design, and it works so well. The themes, impact, and characters neatly weave together to create a story that is memorable in many ways. Also, Madoka Magica has great memes. I also like Revolutionary Girl Utena- it's heavy on symbolism and powerful theme development. The anime itself could be considered the shoujou equivalent to Neon Genesis Evangelion, which I still want to watch but will probably like.

TAYLOR THANKS FOR THE SUGGESTIONS I AM SO CHECKING THOSE 2 OUT im rlly excited man im love gay
madoka magica was so well done for a 12 episode series and i loved the connections to mythology and stuff that it made but. MAN....it was really deppressing and crazy.. i like the ship between homura and madoka it honestly seems canon to me i mean the whole entire anime was made with homura and madoka as the main idea and i could definantly see homura having romantic feelings for madoka O__O

I didn't think it was all that depressing, honestly ^-^' It makes sense as is- Buddhist philosophy is that desire leads to suffering, and a wish is a desire. Therefore to restore balance, the wish will result in a form of suffering. Also, regardless of whether or not MadoHomu is "canon" it still is the focus of the themes of love, especially in the Rebellion story. Madoka is a Christ-like figure (evident by her visual portrayal in some scenes), she loves all unconditionally and takes the suffering of others. Homura is a more selfish love, focused on her determination and feelings for Madoka (which are available to be interpreted in any way), and that makes her the "anti-Christ" "demon" figure in Rebellion. They are representing two sides of a coin, like a Yin-Yang principle.

yeah lotsa crazy cool stuff man!!!!!!! well i mean- that entire concept is depressing in a brutally realistic way. its a human thing to experiance desire which is the whole reason qbs planet has chosen the wish making method to get the energy they need from people okay but honestyl i think her self-centered view on madoka is a theme of love bc people often unintentionally love selfishly and people who are in love for the first time can kinda get like that...... besides its not like homura can just give up on madoka or her soul gems gonna break yeah? heck man (sorry if some of the points i brought up arent completley accurate bc i havent watched the show in like. Years. but from what i remember this is what it was like. i need to rewatch it wtf)

I'm a big fan of Miyazaki films if they count. My Neighbor Totoro and Princess Mononoke top faves.
Otherwise I like Cowboy Bebop and Samurai Champloo and typically animus that have more of a western appeal.

My favorite is Soul Eater for sure! I have it on DVD and rewatch it every now and then. I also really love Hero Academy and Fairytail! I've watched tons of others but those three are my faves haha

Adore Code Geass, by far my favorite anime. Hyped for the new season.
