[C] is horrible and we are all fools for being deceived

Guess why we hardly hear about Tatsunoko Productions?

ALL ANIME = ADVERTISEMENTS.

Coming soon: T-shirts, nendoroids, DVDs, posters, you name it, we make it.

There’s something depressing about studying the Matrix trilogy for your literature class. One, we’re compelled to believe something Hollywood made is literature, and two, with all its talk of Baudrillard’s Simulacra and Simulacrum and whatnot, it all seems so fickle – one application of the allegory of the cave, the Matrix seems so fanciful, so philosophical – yet another application reveals that it’s nothing more than a way to make profit. The sequels aren’t made to further the philosophical message of the first, whatever that is. The sequels are made to make more money off the first movie.

And then we see the usual criticism from anime blogs which seems so right, yet so flawed : the argument that ‘this anime sucks because it’s a <insert length of time here> commercial for <object here>’. Today, I posit this to you : that all anime are nothing more than advertisements.

Plenty of spoilers ahead, but unless you’re living under the most darkest shadow on Pluto, I assume you have already watched the final episode and are still scrambling to put the exploded parts of your brain back together.

All the minute disturbing details of Puella Magi Madoka Magica that no-one seemed to raise

As you all know, Episode 11 has been delayed due to the situation over to Japan. While we wish for Japan’s revival, I’d like to write about the small details in Puella Magi Madoka Magica that seem hardly mentioned.

Fate and Destiny in Madoka Magica : Homura may never score a homerun

(Reader’s Choice: Part 2 of 2 [As per DoctorDazza's request] )

Not exactly post 250 , is it?

If you’ve seen the latest episode of Madoka Magica, you’ll come to terms with the fact that not only is Homura the most tragic heroine of the series, but also that she has been travelling endless back and forth in time in her attempts to rescue the magical girls. Now you know why she tries to stop Mami from fighting Charlotte and the girls from ever signing contracts.

But as one blunt observant soul pointed out, with every repetition she goes through, Homerun seems to not only not solve the problem, but in fact , find that each repetition she goes through only reveals a even darker world : with repetitions that involve Mami going insane and Madoka turning into a witch, it would seem that Homura’s attempt to alter their fates and destinies seem to be failing. That said, what does this show about fate and destiny in PMMM?
