Among my loot from this year’s Summer London MCM Expo, was this little gem: Madoka Kaname, the titular character from Puella Magi Madoka Magica.
I’m a sucker for the SD Nendoroids and a big fan of Good Smile Company’s attention to detail (particularly with accessories and expressions, enabling humorous poses in keeping with the parody nature of SD). Having been impressed by my Nendoroid Kirino, I’m usually drawn to whatever character Good Smile add to the series next, and they’re normally a good range of otaku favourites. (more…)

Quite simply: STUNNING. There (sadly) aren’t many anime that really make you think these days, but this is one, and possibly one of the best.
Puella Magi Madoka Magica turns the cliched magical girl genre on its head and turned heads. With a splash of cinematic vision and a dollop of sci-fi concepts, studio SHAFT – who’ve impressed me before with the two Ef series — have really outdone themselves.
(Warning: Some SPOILERS ahead) (more…)
