Ok, so not a sequel to Rebellion but I'm glad we're getting a spin-off with a good story!

I hope it's good. The manga is MTK and it's nowhere near so the chances of being bad is low. Then you have Mami alive, no need to play the game, and the voice cast which may make the chance of it becoming terrible very low and that's saying a lot since this is mobile adaptation

Fate/Extra Last Encore was well animated and well directed... It just wasn't well explained. I'd say blame time restraints and/or Nasu himself.

A "fun introduction to Fate/Extra" but assumes you know the characters and setting-- yeah, okay Nasu. XD

Does anyone know when Magia Record will be taking place? Is it just another timeline of Homura before Madoka becoming God or is it somewhere else in the story?

I believe it's the former, definitely not the latter.

Weird, I’ve heard that God Madoka appeared in the story at some moments in the game. I guess we’ll know when it airs


This should give you more information.
Edit: It may be somewhere in between.

I really don't know. I looove Madoka, and I've been following this franchise for a long time, but I also know that a franchise like this can easily be exposed to over-saturation as it perpetuates into multiple reboots and/or spin-offs. Another Madoka story that takes place before Madoka became goddess? Okay, sure, that didn't happen a lot in the anime, but there are already quite a number of manga titles that dealt with such a premise - not as spectacularly as the first Madoka anime either, mind you.

So yeah, definitely cynical towards this, as I am towards most modern anime titles. I think I might just going to wait for a sequel to Rebellion, if that ever happens.

I'll definitely watch this. Even if it's not a sequel to rebellion I'll be satisfied with more Madoka. Honestly I'm surprised we even got this since I thought they were completely done with the series.

It's so great that we still get PMMM content after almost 8 years since the anime was first released !
The plot of MagiReco is pretty good and interesting, and the characters are really cool too, so I think that the anime will be good, not to mention that we'll get to see the Puella Magi from the original anime too. I can't wait to see Homu again !

It's based on a gacha game, apparently one whose plot can be inserted somewhere within Homura's travels in the (original) TV series. I'm convinced that the continuation teased by the concept movie simply isn't in the works yet as this series easily sold well enough to be deemed a safe investment without this adaption, and that this is being made to ensure that consumer interest doesn't fade. Oh well, at least it's not more empty waiting.

I'm less hyped for this and more scared for it, and I'm (was) the Madoka Magica guy. This is a blatant cashgrab to further gacha memery.

I hope, HOPE it's decent. This'll likely butcher the characters in more ways than one, but I sincerely hope it doesn't.

I was expecting something else (seeing how I got notified about this now even though I already knew about the game)

Lets hope it gets decent. I cant really see how this will be like the real madoka anime, but maybe we will just get a good magical girls show. Lets see.

Cant get worse than the sequels.

As someone who's been following the MagiReco story, I'd say this show could be pretty decent or pretty bad, depending on what parts they choose to include, how many episodes this gets, and who the production staff are.

Really? I mean I havent been keeping up with the story but from what I read so far it's been pretty decent.

It's nowhere near as great as the original series is but it is by no means bad. I'm ready for the low MAL rating though because of expectations being way too high.

I personally think the main story is pretty decent and introduces some interesting ideas, but it suffers from a few notable flaws in execution.

Regardless of that, the main story itself is somewhat long and it requires several side/character stories to fully flesh out the cast. If they try to rush through the whole thing in 12 episodes, I'm not confident it will turn out well.

I hope the show gets a competent director who can pace it well and smooth over the flaws so the interesting parts are emphasized.

Thank you so much, teaser was not allowed in my country and since I wasn´t playing a game I didn´t have a clue what the story was about. Now it took my interest.

It´s a spin-off, so you are basically right. Except I expect to see original characters as well.

I didn't hear anything bad about the characters in the game, so I wouldn't worry too much about it. In fact, the story is praised a lot, and with Shaft doing it, you can't really expect it to burn and crash, especially not with their second-biggest cash cow. It may be a money grab, but everything is a money grab in the anime industry. At least Shaft does more passion projects more often then not.
