Ending spoilers: There is a time skip and it cuts to a now adult Homura alone at a cafe. Suddenly Homura catches a speck of pink hair in her vision and looks over to see a now adult Madoka walking hand in hand with a man. Homura then hears a little girls voice saying "Papa! Mama! Wait for me." As they walk further and further away Homura shows a serene smile having finally let go of her obsession and letting Madoka find true happiness

They really donโ€™t know how to frame a cinematic shot, huh. This is so shit. I was hoping theyโ€™d improve on the outdated direction from the 12-episode series. I watched it pretty late (December 2024), and a lot of the shots feel long-winded with awkward angles like it was pulled straight out of Monogatari. Shaft was a mistake.

Hope he is not the main animator for the movie, so overdone with the shading and folds in this key visual that it's disgusting and very unlike shaft. Abe needs to come back for this movie

Thought he has toned down the synthetic shadings but i guess not. Hopefully he tones it down, would be unbearable to see these two running wild throughout the movie.

ok... let me guess the plot.

>some time has happened since Homura took over the LoC, kidnapped Madoka and threw her in her demonic basement.
>a trio of EEEEVIL megucas who know about Homura's deed, is trying to kidnap Madoka and use her power to take over the LoC and the world.
>Homura has no other choice than to recruit Baneyaka, Mami the cookie devourer, kyoko the nonexistant and possibly Cheese Louise to stop them, because the EEEVIL megucae true goal is to revive walpurgisnacht and make her so powerful she will destroy all timelines, because EVIL.

The show and movie only feature straight couples. Even if you argue that Homura is a lesbian, her obsession with Madoka is portrayed more ambiguously toxic than the relationship between Madoka's parents.

Why even post something so stupid. It's obvious why it was delayed so long, the fucking trailers look like they cost more to make than the entirety of the average seasonal anime that is airing right now. In a way this is the Redline of the 2020s. Pray to Madoka it doesn't flop because that will be the final nail in the coffin for attention to detail in anime.

When I watched Rebellion in 2013 I was a broke depressed 20 year old spending 12ish hours a day on /a/ and watching anime. Now Iโ€™m a broke alcoholic 32 year old spending 12ish hours a day sleeping. Comfy how things are basically the same. Over a decade later Homu STILL did nothing wrong.

Plenty of other garbage do that, shaft doesn't need to follow the same and no its not good. The extravagant shadings and foldings work because of experienced animators having a good idea on the timings and the volume which is completely absent in these new gen cancer inducing animators
