So I finished Puella Magi Madoka Magica the other day and took a few to let it sink in and to emotionally recover before poking around the topic. Oh man. Easily on my favorites list, no question about it. I don't know why I was ever worrying the ending might be a cop-out because just like the rest of the series, it was fantastic. I'm really looking forward til a good copy of Rebellion pops up and I'm pretty sure the massive amounts of information on the wiki will tide me over til then.
Angel Beats! is going to be next up for sure. I just have to wait til my brain slides out of PMMM mode so that I can give it the proper emotional attention.
I would say its one of my favorites, but truth is it is my favorite atm. The animation was some of the best I have seen (again I saw first 2 movies on bluray bigscreen tv and then the final movie in theaters so hard to compare to that) I loved the OST and the story completely blew me away in-part over how little I expected from it.
Its one of those shows thats fun to read up on after or even rewatch since theres a lot of subtle points that are easy to miss but add a lot to the story like when
another thing is all
the runes you see in connected with the witches actually correspond with a letter in the alphabet, and spells out words and phrases in german connected to the witches they talk about, its fun to read up on what was being written in the Labrynths and such. A lot of effort was made by fans into translating the runes, and apparently Gen and other people who worked on the show were surprised when western fans managed to decode the runes before even hardcore japanese fans were able to.
Definitely let me know what you think of The Rebellion Story when you watch it. It really utilizes one of the tv series main strengths; screwing with what you expect to happen and messing with your feels.
So who are your favorite characters?

Isichar, I really hope you enjoy the Rebuild movies when you watch them. I hadn't watched the series since 2006 so the first movie playing the series mostly straight was helpful since my memory was pretty rusty when I watched the three of them last month. The upgraded Ramiel fight just made me roll all over the place with how amazing it was.
I really liked Evangelion when I first saw it, theres a ton of things I did not understand originally but it was stil worth checking out. Its kind of cool when you can take a few years, forget about something, come back and not only enjoy the original again, but also enjoy some new content. I want to see where they go with it since the ending for the series wasa pretty big deal back in the day.
