I haven't seen Fist of the North Star, might give it a try sometime.

I wish the mangaka for Berserk would release more chapters for it.... IMHO, the art style in the manga is masterpiece worthy, despite the graphic contents. It sucks that the anime was dumbed down because it was considered "too violent" which is quite understandable and not to mention those other scenes....
W-what is this?

Yeah, that's pretty much why I said that Madoka had to be a girl. I figured that people would be far less sympathetic to and more judgmental of an indecisive male protagonist than they would a female one. But the idea of Gendo trying to force Shinji into a magical girl outfit made me laugh.

My problem with the character change was less that it didn't sit with the established characterization and more that it was a sudden turn counter to previous statement or implication, and was not really foreshadowed in any manner that would be left to click later. Leaving aside the epilogue, in the main TV series she seemed stable and accepting of events, and nothing in the movie up to the big reveal really did anything to establish that mindset as having changed. Then all of a sudden, down come the walls and BAM!

But I'm legitimately interested to know your reason, since I haven't had the chance to discuss the film with anyone yet.

@EVERYONE:

Anyone mind if we post spoilers and discuss the series/movies openly? Traptastic, you finished the third movie yet? I've been avoiding spoilers for now because I didn't want to ruin it for you.

Homura should've been a guy. I think I would've liked that better. I haven't seen the movies myself yet either. Go ahead and post spoilers if you want, just give a warning first.

SPOILERS FOR THE THIRD MEGUCA MOVIE IMMINENT

How many people are still keeping up-to-date on Bleach and Naruto? (manga chapters for both, as Bleach has stopped airing on TV outside of Toon*mi).

I really love how the Thousand Year Blood War arc of Bleach is going....I mean it's absolutely AMAZING. Zaraki's Shikai....Yamamoto's Bankai....and the possible betrayal of one of the Karakura Town regulars, as the Quincy march to war and decimate all of Soul Society.

In Naruto though, I'm somewhat conflicted as to how the final arc has developed now.....

Essentially what I feel is that Kishimoto doesn't really have a distinct plan in mind as to how to FINALLY bring Naruto to a close. The reason I feel this is because ever since the whole declaration of the Shinobi World War, things keep escalating further and further and further....and we've hit what feel like probably 5 false climaxes at this point, and there's no end to the escalation.....
