MODERATORS
The anime is Madoka Magika. I recommend watching up to the 3rd/4th chapter without spoilers, then decide if you want to continue watching it.
The joke (spoilers)
The studio advertised it as a generic slice of life magical girl show, and when it was leaked that its writer was Gen Urobuchi, who was known for his horror stories, they tried to do "damage control" by claiming that he was trying to get into new genres and styles. The show does indeed turn pretty dark fairly soon, and you should definitely not watch it if you need something mild. In any case, it's top stuff and I recommend it.Hi, elderly rookie anime-liker here: the version on Crunchyroll is a side-story from 2020. Do you perhaps know where I can watch the 2011 version?
And perhaps a bit forward, but do you have some reccomendations for me?
I watched and liked (order of watchdate):
Full Metal Alchemist: Brotherhood Steins Gate Demonslayer (started with mugen train movie with my daugter, binged back and following) Chainsaw Man One Punch Man Mushi-shi Made in Abyss Way of the househusband Jujutsu Kaisen and while not anime per se Blue Eye Samurai (binged this weekend with husband and daughter)
And I recently watched Suzume wich made me cry.
thanks in advance!
(sorry for typos, cat really wants to sit on the keyboard.)
I second Ludrol as for where to watch it. But if you don't want to resort to piracy, I think you can also watch the show on Netflix.
I haven't watched that much anime, but if I had to make a top 3, it'd be FMA:B, Madoka, and Code Geass.
Code Geass makes me feral in the best way
