It becomes more focused on the idea of the 'Magical girl' and exactly what they are. The story now begins to shift from the main quintet of girls to just Madoka and Homura. While the first movie was about an episode and a half shorter than the original material it retold, this movie is actually slightly longer (around 20 minutes more) and it really helps it pace the story much better than before. I just can't think of anything to do right now other than writing a review or going to bed early.Īs with the first movie, Eien no Monogatari is a recap which follows up and retells the last four episodes of the anime. I've heard people talk about feeling a 'void' after finishing an amazing anime, and Eien no Monogatari has successfully left me with that feeling. me that I have missed both times I have watched the anime. The reason I'm writing a review of the second movie instead of the first, is because this movie finally succeeded at leaving that impression with I'm not the biggest fan of the anime series (at least I wasn't before watching these movies), and, while I think it's good, it never left a very big impression on me. So going into the recently subtitled Mahou Shoujo Madoka★Magica duo of movies, I was really wondering what I would think of it. I never understood why things needed to be shown multiple times further decreasing my enjoyment of it with every repetition. Mahou Shoujo Madoka★Magica Movie 2: Eien no Monogatari is a story of inescapable destiny, and an unlikely hero who could change it all. As the threat of Walpurgisnacht, a powerful witch, looms overhead, Homura once again vows to protect Madoka and the world from a grim fate.Ĭaught between honoring Homura's wish and saving the world, which one will Madoka choose in the end? Kyuubey only compounds their despair when he confesses his true intentions: to harness the energy created from magical girls and use it to prolong the life of the universe.

Homura Akemi reveals to Kyouko Sakura and Madoka Kaname the ultimate fate of magical girls: once their soul gem becomes tainted, it transforms into a Grief Seed, and they are reborn as witches-a truth Homura learned only through repeating history countless times in a bid to prevent Madoka's tragedy.

Though Sayaka Miki's wish was fulfilled, the unforeseen consequences that came with it overwhelm her, causing her soul gem to become tainted as she succumbs to despair and eventually loses her humanity.
