Well, Kyoko does tend to make a... let's say, strong first impression.

Did they already finish watching the show that Apothecary will replace? If so, probably soon.

Reviving Mami is the obvious wish she should be thinking about especially since its indirectly her fault that Mami died. So if she wants to live with a clear consciousness thats the wish she should be thinking about.

Yuuki Kaijura composing is perfect for a magical fantasy setting. I argue its the reason people were so into sword art online when it came out. The music really is important for immersion

I'm so glad that these two don't directly read the comments most of the time.

It's not "This is poison, this is not poison, they look alike". It's "Do not combine bleach with ammonia". We have a ton of household items with either. People do die by accident every year.

This is definitely a show that benefits from a rewatch.

I mean... Kyubey doesn't have any facial motion, so how can you call his face emotive? :P Also, why you gotta hate Kyoko, though Sayaka is pretty cool too. I like most of the characters in this show, though Homura is prob my favorite.

I don't think Madoka knows what wish to make yet. Wasn't that part of the point of the conversation with Mami last episode? She couldn't think of anything but "I want to be a magical girl", but Mami convinced her to try to think of something again, or else just wish for something random and frivolous if she really had her mind made up on being one. I think Mami's death kinda threw a spanner in the works of Madoka's motivaton

I appreciate them not judging Kyubey on human terms, at the very least

That conversation on the bridge between Madoka and Homura always gets me with the additional context on a re-watch :(

What a great reaction and discussion. You’re both able to sympathize with the characters so well, it naturally enriches your analysis and speculation. Also loved your appreciation for the amazingly eerie soundtrack and deliberate care put into the art style and it’s dynamics. Ben’s [non (according to his pouty “no” when directly questioned if he had a bias)] - bias is hilarious. I can’t wait until he develops a soft spot for Kyoko later in the series after ignoring Anna’s warning to keep an open mind (multiple times) with simply “FUCK KYOKO!” Hahahaha. Thanks for the great vid appreciate you both <3

I guess you didn't notice until now, but this series' cold opens have all been in widescreen.
There are a number of combinations of common household cleaning products that will produce poisonous gases when mixed. It's why they always have "do not mix with other cleaners" among the safety warnings.

Lmao, that initial hatred for Kyouko... Can't wait to see how that changes.

I feel like "I fucking hate Kyoko" is a very common first reaction to meeting her at the end of Ep 4
