Guys, seriously.
I am not fucking around right now when I say that everyone...EVERYONE...needs to watch Puella Magi Madoka Magica. This show is to the Magical Girl genre what Evangelion was to Mecha.
You have:
Writing by Urobuchi Gen (of Nitro+, most notable works being Saya no Uta and the light novel series Fate/Zero [also being adapted into an anime])
Music by Kajirua Yuki (most notably, for me, composer of Kara no Kyoukai)
Animation by SHAFT (notorious for fucked-upness, they are responsible for Sayonara, Zetsubou Sensei!, Bakemonogatari, and Arakawa Under the Bridge, which are some of the best animes to come out in recent years)
Directed by Shinbo Akiyuki (Arakawa Under the Bridge, Negima, Magical Lyrical Girl Nanoha, Hidamari Sketch)
In other words, a fucking dream team of anime staff.
This is one of those things where if I try to explain to you why this show is so good and why you NEED TO WATCH IT, I will spoil it. Please just take my word for it. Watch 3-4 episodes. Prepare for greatness.
