How Twisted (PMMM Episode 5 Review)



I think I get why they call it a Soul Gem now.


You basically trade your soul to this little piece of shit here in exchange for a single limitless wish, thus binding yourself to a lifelong contract promising to protect the Earth.



So Sayaka basically gave herself up in order to make this guy happy... I'm not sure if I like it very much.

I mean, it's sweet that she was selfless enough to use her one wish on someone else despite this guy being a huge asshole to her the other day, but I just keep having this feeling that something will happen to Sayaka. A lot of things about this episode was just so ominous and it freaks me out.


This girl is still planning on taking Sayaka out, but in the middle of her planning Kyubey warns her that there's more than one Magical Girl in the city. However, Kyubey calls this Magical Girl an "irregularity" mainly because she's powerful but he's never exactly made a contract with her.



I've noticed that all Magical Girls wear some kind of emblem on the nail of the finger which they wear their Soul Gem rings on. What do they mean ðŸ¤”​

In this scene Madoka asks Homura to befriend Sayaka in order to keep her safe, first listing Sayaka's personality traits in order to convince herself that Sayaka could be a great Magical Girl. However, Homura believes that traits such as hot-headedness and being quick to help someone are extremely dangerous in the Magical Girl business. According to her this is why Mami was killed. 


Despite how dangerous this could be, Madoka still wants to come patrolling with Sayaka, hoping to turn herself into a Magical Girl in the event where Sayaka can't defend herself. They eventually find a Labyrinth,


and end up fighting this ugly-ass bitch.



But before Sayaka could even make a scratch on the entity, the red-haired chick comes in, chases off the entity and closes the Labyrinth. Turns out the entity was only a Familiar. 

So now there's two sides: One wants to kill the familiar in order to protect the Earth while the other wants to let the familiar eat a few people until the last minute so she could get a grief seed. 

The latter side compares their viewpoint to the food chain, basically saying that Magical Girls are at the top. This shows a sign of a big ego (those who put themselves on a high pedestal in order to make themselves feel better are considered egotistical). 

What I mean is that Magical Girls aren't exactly at the top of the food chain. Mami was a powerful Magical Girl and she got eaten! Then again, she wasn't very fit to be a Magical Girl ðŸ¤”​

Plus, even if they have a bunch of magical powers coming out their asses doesn't mean they're immortal. Unless of course they wished to be.

Anyway... Given the fact that both girls are hot-heads Sayaka and the red-head get into an argument and start trading blows. Red-head even goes as far as to throw Sayaka against the wall! But Sayaka continues to keep standing, which gets the red-head pissed off and she starts actually trying to pummel her into the ground.

I'm guessing that the Magical Girls who actually survive are just huge assholes.


Madoka, who is watching while being barricaded by chains, desperately wants to help. Kyubey then tells her to make a wish (this guy just doesn't care about anyone). 


At the last second before making her wish, Madoka is interrupted when Homura steps in, momentarily stopping the battle.

Why I Really Dislike 90s Anime Style

Image
You know which one I'm talking about. The one where most of the characters had triangle-shaped faces, pointy ass chins, and big ass eyes. That, I really don't know why, scares the shit out of me. Like DOES THAT NOT SCARE YOU??? SHE LOOKS LIKE A FUCKING BUG How is that cute Jesus Christ

My Thoughts on Mikasa Ackerman (Character Analysis Post)

Image
Hey, everyone!! I've realized that literally all I talk about on this blog are the manga and anime I see, which isn't very fair for all of you loyal readers out there. So I've decided to talk about something that might be a little more interesting... This is Mikasa Ackerman. Now I know she's not the most liked  character in the SnK fandom (for many reasons), but I personally feel that she's not as bad as some may think she is. One of the main reasons why most don't like her is simply because of the way her personality is. They find her to be emotionless because she keeps a stoic expression (and that picture proves otherwise) and "clingy" because she's usually around, and is constantly trying to protect, Eren. What they don't understand and seem to forget is WHY. Everyone remembers the sixth episode of Shingeki right? You know, the one where Mikasa's parents are fucking murdered ? Yeah I thought so. Now imagine that, you...

3 Reasons Why I Believe Mikasa Isn't a "Mary Sue"

Image
Like I said before, most people who hate Mikasa tend to argue the she's a Mary Sue. For those of you who may be unfamiliar with this term (although almost everyone should know), a Mary Sue is a fictional character who's absolutely perfect in every conceivable way. This character is usually a woman and is perceived as "annoying' by most of the fandom. What I'd like to point out are the traits that make her seem less "perfect". Mind you, I am in no way hating on Mikasa. 1. She's a little anti-social I feel that throughout the series, Mikasa only talks to people when she feels like she has to. Kind of like the whole "Do no speak unless you are spoken to" thing. That's why sometimes it kind of looks like Eren and Armin are her only friends. However, I think she's gotten a bit closer to Sasha throughout the years, but that's most likely because Sasha initiated their conversations. Such as in their first meeting when M...
