Fluttershy could probably relate to Madoka's feeling of helplessness.

Also, it was a one-sided crush on Sayaka's part, so it counts.

@Kyler: But Madoka's being conspired against by an unfair contract, an entirely amoral alien, and the heat death of the universe. Fluttershy's being conspired against by Angel and her own shadow.

It's not entirely a fair comparison, is my point. XD

It may just be me putting more stock in emotion rather than logic in this kind of scenario, but...

I don't see your point.

Well I think Lolita and Fate/stay night are likely to be brought back.

@Kyler: I'm just saying that Madoka's facing more existential hopelessness than 'ponies will laugh at me if I go outside today' hopelessness.

Keep in mind that I love Fluttershy, by the way.

@Kyler: It's a spoilery scene where someone gets in over her head. You might be uncomfortable eating gingerbread men after that.

I'm curious how their reactions would be like if the Cutie Mark Crusaders were with them and watching it too.

^^Yeah. You can see a cereal box at the beginning of that sequence that reads Mami Mogu Mogu, that being an onomatopoeia for chewing.

Coincidentally, I was listening to this. Probably my favorite music from the series.

Also, Charlotte was so cute. Too bad she's a witch.

I've always been amazed by how Madoka fans find all those little details.

I don't see Kyousuke as a jerk. So he ends up with someone else. He never had any obligation to fall in love with Sayaka. Word Of God is that she never even registered as female to him.

Plus, she kept reminding him of the thing he hated. Sayaka can't have gotten any points for that.

Oh, we're talking about Madoka Magica now? Finally, a derail about a series I've actually seen. tongue

What have we decided about how it relates to ponies so far? The CMC make contracts to get their cutie marks, right?

I'm not saying he had an obligation to fall in love with her; that kind of thinking... well, you can see where that kind of thinking ends up. My point is that he never thanked her for caring to visit him, didn't bother telling her he was out of the hospital, and then spent literally the rest of her life avoiding her.

I think the saddest part about Sayaka is that's how a lot of people would have acted if they were Wrong Genre Savvy.

@L Mage: You mean sapient. Also, you left out zebras and diamond dogs.

One idea that I think has merit is that every member of the Chinese horoscope includes a sapient version.

EDIT: Oh yeah. And donkeys (and by extension, mules). Also, I think that there are sapient horses too.

@Red: Point. He should have contacted her. But remember that she was also avoiding him and he probably was busy getting settled. It was a very short time from him leaving hospital till the end.

I have never seen Madoka, so I have no idea what you guys are on about...

As for sentent species, who knows? they all seem to exibit interlect far higher than there real live counterparts do (bar perhaps the goats), but many don't talk. That doesn't mean they are less inteligent though, just that they underdeveloped vocal cords.
