In all. I'd tell people to watch it.. But, it's like the Scared Blacksmith.. It just could of been so much more.
IMHO

Sacred blacksmith, it started so interesting, then it turned on some sort of romance comedy with occasional fights and it lacked Lisa fan service...

Here's an interesting article about Madoka, by the creator himself: In an interview in the Tuesday morning edition of the Asahi Shimbun paper, Puella Magi Madoka Magica writer Gen Urobuchi compared the plot of the Madoka Magica anime to the real-life terrorist network Al-Qaeda. The interview in the newspaper's Culture section begins with the following two questions, which contain spoilers for the anime series.

Spoiler

Asahi: Madoka Magica is an original story. Where did the idea come from?

Urobuchi: I received a request to write a bloody story where magical girls appear, and then drop out one by one. I paid attention to the aspects that are troubling or overlooked in the traditional magical girl genre. I've been thinking that magical girls who have acquired superhuman abilities will find themselves removed from the world, which would cause contradictions and reactions.

Asahi: Magical girls, who are full of hope and who strive to save the people, soon suffer from hatred and jealousy, which turn them into the enemy witches. The change from good to evil left an emotional impact.

Urobuchi: For example, Al-Qaeda brought down the Twin Towers due to their self-righteousness. Justice for some people is an evil for others. Good intentions, kindness, and hope will not necessarily make people happy.

I guess now we know why...

Edit 3:
Watching steins gate ep 22:
Finally!!
Then i thought: oh, its over, what a shame...
And then: Oh shit!!
If things weren't bad enough now what??

Edit 4: Mardock Scramble
Just watched the first movie, the setting is very interesting, the animation is fantastic and so is character design, the cg cars are not so good, although fairly detailed, they look out of place and the music is great too as i had the chance to listen the ost beforehand...

The first movie deals with Ballot's life, past and future, the way she was killed, resurrected and now pursuits her nemesis with the help of Oeufcoque, she gradually starts adapting to her new reality...
The actions really good, specially during a shoot practice the way she was moving was awesome, and later on when the real action kicks in...
The movie ends on a cliff hanger unfortunately and the next movie will take a while, it will air on 3 of September and the bd doesnt have a date yet...
