“Mahou Shoujo Madoka Magica the Movie – Part III: Rebellion Story” ( Gekijo ban Mahou Shojo Madoka Magica: Hangyaku no Monogatari) Now that it’s out though, I present to you: Mahou Shoujo Madoka★Magica the Movie – Part III: Hangyaku no Monogatari. That said, that didn’t prevent me from seeing this in theaters initially, and it’s been quite difficult waiting until the BD/DVD came out to write about it. The act of revisiting what seemed like a “completed story” rang alarm bells in my head, and I was worried about it potentially just being a money grab that would also ruin some of the positive impressions I had of a series as a whole. In many ways, it was a “conclusive ending” that wrapped a bow around everything, and I found myself hesitant to watch Rebellion as a result. To say that I loved the series is an understatement ( this and this should give you some indication) and the way the original ended was a key part of those feelings.

Before going into the movie itself, let me first preface this by saying that since its initial broadcast in 2011, Madoka’s been one of my all time favorite anime series.
