>>2905083>1) Wraith Arc and the series have the same ending because they have the same sequel.That sequel being Rebellion right?so the wraith arch was written to give more insight though not being key to understand Rebellion? (assuming i got it right)
>2) The comment was in regard to the series and it's conclusion. He stated the series is its own complete work while Rebellion can be thought of as happening in a timeloop or two after the series. At the time, this was ass covering for if Rebellion was a box office failure.Didn`t think of that
>4) post an image when you comment.Sorry
>>2905077I don't know where to find the interview in english
I get to those conclusions because I tend to obsess with concepts (I believe the concepts a book/series touches are the difference between a seasonal anime and a favourite) and no one I know IRL has seen or care or might talk to this lengths of Madoka and Homura's concept is fascinating to me. The hero that can not win or Sisyphus (from Camu's take on the myth of Sisyphus), doomed to fight an un-winnable struggle (pushing the rock in the case os Sisyphus), falling in despair when she loses sight on why she is doing it (nihilism phase before absurdism), it's interesting seeing how her soul gem start getting tainted when she realises that her struggle is pointless and then she regains meaning rebellion, when she decides to save Madoka, even though she is miserable at the end and knows her barrier will fall and until then she got a lot to work, that (the struggle) makes her happy.
In the wraith arc we see that even though she has a meaning (protecting madoka's new world), its not enough, yes, she regains meaning at the end of the wraith arc but, how long can this new meaning last before she breaks down again?
Though to be sincere this is mostly mi interpretation, the series is filled with nihilism but never talks or implies anything related with absurdism
