What is up everybody welcome back to the anime virgin today we're talking about Madoka Magica with Nux talk who what up nux

0:26.8

and I should explain me and Briggs or Briggs and I are the anime virgins in this case nux loves Madoka Magica and we are going to be reacting to it for the first time as nux probably makes a big deal out of us skipping over parts.

0:47.8

No, don't worry about that. You only do that to anime you're good on the bright side we have two virgins here so like hopefully if I forget a part goes and has my back and vice versa.

0:58.8

Yeah, I'm not used to going like because I'm never divergent I'm not used to going like it from the beginning to the end but everyone's been a virgin at one point.

1:10.8

I'm not excited to be a virgin words that aren't said too often yes and I got admit spoiler alert I did enjoy this.

1:19.8

Yeah, well we always start off with our general thoughts before going like chronologically through what happened and giving like our opinions and insight on it.

1:26.8

So like overall my general thoughts was a roller coaster like every three episodes I changed my mind on if I liked or didn't like the show and in the end I did end up loving it.

1:36.8

No, my day was made. I don't even need to be here anymore. Thanks for having me. I was just going to defend the honor but if you liked a magical girl anime my duty is done.

1:47.8

You guys, you don't realize you don't realize Mac. I've been doing an anime podcast with this dude for five years five years of him not wanting to watch Madoka

2:01.8

magic up because he dropped it in middle of episode one or something stupid like that. Okay, five years in that.

2:08.8

Yeah, I was I was ready to cancel this podcast that was I was literally like I was watching episode one and I'm like this fucking sucks.

2:15.8

Like the entire time I was literally such an asshole being my girlfriend were watching it and every two seconds I'd be like wow.

2:21.8

Honestly like after watching five minutes of this I can really see that this anime is truly garbage.

2:28.8

Yeah, you're quick to judge breaks at least three episodes, bro. No, I don't agree with the three episode rule but I will.

2:35.8

You got I mean I've watched hundreds of anime man. There's really few anime. There is so many.

2:42.8

There is so many so that they've ever been like wrong about and this is one of them dude so many anime start out in a specific way just the subvert the way they started out like you can just you know

2:54.8

assume you can also tell if an anime is for you so I guess I will agree that absolute one really started off with like the magical girl sense you get these teenage girls and for me it's like clearly I'm not the target demographic here.

3:09.8

It was cringe and it was corny so I was just like this isn't for me I'm not gonna like it I must say the series get so much better and change it and they were subverting my expectations a thousand percent.

3:19.8

Yeah, I'm really good at suspending this belief and getting inside the world whether or not it's something I usually watch which in this case it wasn't because I also don't watch magic girl stuff since since Sakura the card capter.

3:33.8

Since then I didn't watch anything but yeah I actually just accepted it for what it is and then I was pleasantly surprised I did know it was gonna get dark.

3:44.8

So it was a surprise to me but it was interesting.

3:49.8

That's the thing this time around I think I was a little bit more like analytical of even episode one because I've been told that it's so good and has like a dark twist and gets better as it goes.
