>>20911274>I will watch the movies tomorrow.The first two ("Beginnings" and "Eternal") are recap movies- If you watched the whole series recently and it's still fresh in your mind then those might not be a good use of your time. The third movie "Rebellion" is all new content, though
>Like explaining the origin and role and character and motivations of kyubeyyeah, I love it when a character gets a chance to rationalize their motivations in such a way that I, as the viewer, can say "hey, maybe we aren't as different as I thought"
>when other maho shojou anime don't feel the need to do that with their mascot characters>And the magic system and how it works and where the enemies come from and so onyep, very relevant to the cycles that exist everywhere in our reality (and I always end up mentioning when conversations get deep)
>The episode of homura's backstory was the most insightful and made me realize lots of things about these characters and why things happened in the earlier episodesThe idea that the self-sacrificial hero is the ultimate hero is the idea that changed the world (thanks, Christianity)
>Mami's theme influences me a lotI get it! [I'm partial to Sayaka's theme]
The singer for the insert songs, [as well as the ending theme,] Yuki Kajiura [credited as kalafina, a short-lived music group she sang for], also sang insert songs for .hack//SIGN (where I got my minecraft skin character from)
