Oh, huh. I'll have to look closer next time. Though those 'familiars' don't appear until after

Spoiler:

One other thing to note about the drama I caught on the second listening:

...Nice fucking going, Madoka.
Spoiler:
But at least the kitty got saved. Maybe it's the same one in the OP?

It is exactly the one from the OP. The OP was one big joke, and because it was there, they decided to use it.

Walpurgis disappates, right? It could just be the separate witches from all the vignettes being wiped away/purified. Which makes more since Walpurgis Night is the "night of witches".

Actually,

It's reeeeeally a stretch to say they're all the same as who contributed to Walpurgis. The way I see it, Madoka's first shot was only for magical girls in the present time.

First has long zigzag-finish sleeves and random circle things on her head. Second looks like a giant afro with a crown, also has a scepter.
Third has an antenna of sorts, four hair loops and wings. Fourth has wing-like sidetails on her head. Fifth is apparently Miku. Sixth looks like her crotch is a giant bird's nest.

i'd like to know how you can tell these are the same girls

ふとくていなねこじょおう · « **Reply #125 on:** May 05, 2011, 02:51:05 AM »

There's a picture of the familiars in the Puella Magi wiki. If you look closely, each one of them has a resemblance to the Puella Madoka saved.

Drake · « **Reply #126 on:** May 05, 2011, 03:34:20 AM »

Thanks for telling me there's a subarticle about them; even though I still think they bear little to no resemblance to the magical girls saved, it points out that they are similar to the characters in the Universe PV by Gekidan Inu Curry. And that I fully support, some are nearly exactly the same, and others seem to just be meshes of two.

...Man. Now I kinda wanna run a Magical Burst PbP.

(For those not in the know: Magical Burst is a rules-lite RPG under development by the guy who translated the Maid RPG into English. It is very much inspired by Puella Magi Madoka Magica, among others.)

...So I'm not the only one? I've been trying to figure out a good campaign idea for it, but I'm not sure if I could get it to work out, ahah... >.> Or if there'd be any real interest. I might have to rethink this.

Did they actually decide to use the cat in the radio drama because it was in the OP, or did they have the story for Madoka already written and put the cat in the OP as a result?

The radio drama really feels like something they had planned from the start, but couldn't fit into the timeframe of 12 episodes. Since all the vocals from the first part of the 10th episode are in the radio drama verbatim, with a lot of things filled in. Still significant to the story, but also one of the first places I think they'd cut down.

Drake · « **Reply #131 on:** May 05, 2011, 06:37:00 PM »

Urobochi said that the cat in the OP had nothing to do with anything so they wrote it into the drama. Looks like they did a good job if you can't tell.

ふとくていなねこじょおう · « **Reply #132 on:** May 05, 2011, 06:41:38 PM »

Indeed they did. Turning into a Puella to save the cat, although stupid, was actually a very Madoka thing to do.

It was more of that he mentioned Clannad was in his top ten and above Madoka than Madoka being in his top ten.

buuuuuut yeah

What do you guys think? Do you think Mami should treat her firearms better?

triangles · « **Reply #142 on:** May 08, 2011, 04:47:04 PM »

I think that's the least of her worries, what with UNLIMITED MUSKET WORKS and that whole looming risk of sudden death and all.

Tamer Anode/Cathode · « **Reply #143 on:** May 08, 2011, 04:58:37 PM »

She's likely in junior high at the latest and lives in a country where firearms are heavily restricted. I don't think it's reasonable to expect her to be an expert on the subject.

Iryan · « **Reply #144 on:** May 08, 2011, 05:04:00 PM »

If you could conjure infinite firearms out of your skirt, you would treat them with alot less respect, too.

What's next? People saying the show sucks because Sakaya doesn't know how to fence properly? :trollface:

UncertainJakutten · « **Reply #145 on:** May 08, 2011, 05:17:17 PM »

Oh no, Sayaka fenced awesome. But did you SEE Madoka's TERRIBLE Archery form? I mean, god, she'll break her shoulder after two shots >=[!

Drake · « **Reply #146 on:** May 08, 2011, 07:17:01 PM »

To be fair it can be assumed that those were the only two shots she's fired in her whole life.
