if you guys have realised, yet, entries aren't coming as fast as they should be and they are lagging behind, A LOT.
yes, due to one main reason. lack of time.
this post ain't gonna be long but i do wish to point this out now. i have absolutely no spare time i can grasp to continue blogging and even everyday's schedule is totally packed with work. Thus, i am retiring, here and now, from 3 1/2 years of blogging.
Restarting is highly unlikely but not impossible, definitely not this year.
photos of events might appear somewhere else but anime blogging will not continue in time to come.
I thank you guys for viewing this humble blog and i feel sad to have to part with this. But priority weighs and i had to make a choice. To retire.
So long then :)
Sincerely,
BLooDy

Mahou Shoujo Madoka Magica 9
after Sayaka, Kyouko falls.
NOW that, is fast and unexpected for me =/
i was definitely hoping for Kyouko to stay on till the end, or maybe till Walpurgis Night ... but it seems that she had to take an early leave from the series.
Following Sayaka's transformation in a witch, Kyouko had firmly believed that it was a witch's doing that had stolen or sealed Sayaka's Soul Gem, until Homura arrives to knock the truth into her. Sayaka's Soul Gem had been tainted to a state that it becomes a Grief Seed and that witch in front of them, was Sayaka. ("Sayaka" in this entry would be referring to the witch Sayaka had transformed into) Stopping time, Homura gives Kyouko an opportunity to leave the scene, bringing Sayaka's lifeless body out of the dimension. Madoka, who was searching for Sayaka, spots Kyouko and Homura and was shocked to see Sayaka laying limp in Kyouko's hands.

Homura didn't hesitate to reveal the truth which caused Madoka to break down almost immediately. Kyouko was however unable to comprehend Homura's actions as she knew Madoka would take a heavy blow since Sayaka was her closest friend but Homura doesn't feel what she did was wrong since she wasn't human anymore, just like Kyouko as well.
That night, a devastated Madoka was unable to get to sleep and had a surprise visit from Kyubey once again. After surviving those gunshots, it still had the nerve to visit someone who had lost a dear friend, due to its actions. How i wish i could bash it up and erase it once and for all =X
Kyubey's purpose this time, was to explain the origin of its actions and told Madoka about thermodynamic terms: the problem of Entropy. In the world, every living being is consuming energy and this has to be replenished in order to keep the universe going. Beings, such as Kyubey, had found a solution to replenish the lost energy, with the magic of a Mahou Shoujo. With the strong feelings the living beings on Earth has, the greater the amount of energy harvested as they grow and mature. Once a Soul Gem becomes tainted and become a Grief Seed, an enormous amount of energy would be released and it was the Incubator's job, to harvest these energy to keep the universe going. Kyubey states that it doesn't understand how one's death would matter in a world filled with billions of people and being able to sacrifice oneself for such a great cause wasn't bad as seen by Kyubey.

No one was forced since they were given a choice of a contract.
And that was the reasoning that the cunning little creature gave, to support all its views in this world. Kyubey adds on that Madoka would become the strongest Mahou Shoujo and finally the strongest witch which would thus produce an insane amount of energy. It hopes that Madoka would change her mind to save the universe and to call it when she wants to do so. Supporting those words with all the "saving the world" and stuff does make it seem that its trying a little too hard to grab Madoka into their side. Aliens? Now that's an interesting plot twist. Maybe we get to see more Kyubeys too (since its a species? O_O) ... I think i'll pass on that =/
Meanwhile, Kyouko was still preserving Sayaka's body and believes that Sayaka could still be saved and sets off the next day to find the target for her solution. Madoka. Kyouko believes that with a close friend such as Madoka, she might be able to call out to Sayaka and revert her back to her original Soul Gem. Kyouko make things clear with Madoka that there will be no guarantee for the plan's success nor her safety but for Madoka, it was still better than not trying to help at all. Moving into the dimension, Sayaka quickly notices the intruders and transport them directly into the main room, and the plan begins. While Madoka was desperately calling out to Sayaka, Kyouko was protecting Madoka with her full abilities but things does not seem to go well and she was quickly overpowered.
Having barely saved Madoka from Sayaka's grasp, Kyouko was much at her limits and Homura arrives at the scene to rescue the unconscious Madoka. Requesting for Homura to take Madoka and leave, Kyouko was left face-to-face with Sayaka. Not wanting any of them to be alone any longer, Kyouko releases her final blow, breaking her Soul Gem and ending the battle.
With Madoka safe and another fallen Mahou Shoujo, it was now down to Homura to tackle Walpurgis Night which is the occurrence of an extremely powerful witch and it is unlikely for Homura to take on it alone.
With Sayaka being erased with Kyouko, the hypothesis that Sayaka was the witch at the clocktower will now be eliminated. I didn't though that Kyouko would fall at this stage but having seen that she had actually cared about Sayaka and wasn't as cold as Homura, she might've seen some similarities between her and Sayaka and took an express ticket to stay with her, when her previous talks with her didn't turn out well. With 3 Mahou Shoujos falling before Walpurgis Night, it does seem possible now that Madoka would be accepting the contract to save Homura as seen from the debut episode and Homura's shouting then might have been to ask Madoka to not turn to Kyubey. If it does occur, it might mean that Homura has failed to correct the past yet again... Another time leap? OR could there me a hidden meaning to Homura's existence? There's still a huge load of mysteries surrounding her and i do feel for Madoka, having lost her best friend and now another in a day.
With Kyouko fallen, it was a little depressing since i kinda like her character. She does care for others and was merely trying to stop anyone from making the same mistakes as her and ruining other people's lives, and ultimately their own...
