Welcome to the winning side
The more I think about that ending the more terrible it becomes.

Proud to be your dog girl.
Homu was still wrong in not respecting Madoka's wish though.
First you're scared to find out and now you must know. Make up your mind.
It's called 'sweets×2 sleeping' where you'll discover something truly shocking:
the source was completely sfw all along.

Hmm I predicated this happening an episode earlier. Ah well.

Shocking that Ginko really did savage and kill all those girls at the school, I didn't think she would actually do that.

Blasphemy. Still waiting on that movie 4 announcement! Don't lie, you guys all want it too.
How else would we get a sakuga Tengen Toppa Madoka V.S. Homura fight scene?
Well that sounds like a terrible idea.

Sounds awful
It feeds into how the hate and the prejudice is feeding into a never ending cycle of violence between Bear and Human.

This sounds less like Madoka than what I've been told Rebellion is like!

Drrrrrr x2 11.
Finally some action scene. I'm laughing during the flying kick part.
Feel bad for Celty since she can't play kabaddi in her current condition.

Movie 4 will have that and also undo the ending of Rebellion and have the ending us Rebellion haters wanted from Rebellion. Calling it now. It will be the total opposite of Rebellion and I'll cry tears of joy watching it.
I'll then read the impressions of it here and then proceed to cry tears of laughter.

Great episode. Kind of reminded me of the episode of SBY2199 when Yuki and Kodai wander around the abandoned Yamato and stuff from their past gets brought up.
Poor Chirico. The reveal that he had never drank alcohol before was poignant, as you would think someone so haunted by his PTSD would never stop drinking.
...And then he immediately starts to drown himself in his sorrows, drinking straight from the bottle. So sad.
This is one of the weirdest love stories I've ever seen, as both parties seem to be completely devoid of the emotion at all.
Undoing the ending of Rebellion implies it needs fixing. It's not 3.33. If they do plan on continuing it (which I'm sure they will, unfortunately) they should've never done such an ending to begin with, as you can't really backpedal on a "Fuck You" ending like that. It's like if they made a sequel to End of Evangelion so they could make it a happy ending.

We actually had a pretty good run of giving serious, sincere recommendations to new people until Cross Ange came out.

Which it does.
I agree.
Sure you can. A new conflict has arisen, the next movie should focus on resolving that conflict.
The difference between this and EoE is that End of Evangelion (from my understanding anyway) was an alternate ending sort of thing.
Rebellion is something that directly continues the story and leaves it at an inconclusive non-ending to something that had an ending that was, while still kind of open-ended, conclusive enough on its own.
There SHOULD be a sequel to wrap this up and give things an appropriate resolution.
When I saw the original Madoka TV Series, I saw "The End".
When I saw Rebellion, I saw "To be Continued".
Hell, Rebellion itself
hints at things not ending there, so a sequel to Rebellion to resolve the conflict is very appropriate.

No, EoE is the ending. It's called "End of Evangelion". In a way it is sort of an alternate ending since it's different from the TV ending, but EoE was the end they had in mind to begin with. EoE also continues directly from the end (at least before the last two episodes, their placement in time is odd) of the TV series. It's an apt comparison, one I see people make a lot.
Rebellion ending on a non ending is fine for me. The statement that one day
Madoka will wake up and realize what's going on
There's some amazing framing shots throughout the episode which really help highligh the change throughout but I'm no good at analysing that kind of think so I've not brought it up.
It's not that they're devoid of emotion as such, it's just they are both utterly inexperienced at feeling anything outside the field of battle and how to express it.
If they felt nothing, they wouldn't be struggling so much to reach each other.

Cross Ange can be considered a serious recommendation just as much as Ping Pong can since recommendations by their very nature are subjective.
People aren't obligated to like Ping Pong or dislike Cross Ange.

The difference is no one is going to ever seriously recommend Cross Ange

The problem with Nisekoi is that there should only be two teams in the first place, #TeamChitoge and #TeamOnodera. The show got frustrating when all these other people showed up.
But really, when you think about it, it shouldn't even be two teams. It should just be one team, #TeamOnodera.

Well, to each his own I suppose.
But for me, I won't be satisfied until I get some closure. Until then, I will always dislike Rebellion. I believe that SHAFT can come up with a satisfying ending that doesn't come off as forced or contrived. I honestly think that
the new scenario they created can pave the way for a great movie (or new season, depending on what they do). There's lots of things they can work with coming off Rebellion.
Urobuchi sure wasn't kidding when he said this movie would split the fanbase.

Kimi ni Todoke S1 - So somehow when I first got CR I watched S2 but not 1 (I think because CR surfaces the most recent stuff first and I did not note at the time).
Anyway I finally started watching S1. Guess I was looking for some shojo that I hadn't seen but knew was good.
Binged the first 6 episodes. Man with the end of that arc, it did as they say get dusty in the theatre. And I'd forgotten just how great Sawako is. And for that matter Yano and Yoshida.

I'm not saying that Cross Ange can't be recommended sincerely. But a lot of people recommending it aren't being sincere.
It also seemed to me to reopen the doors to the old hatewatch culture that drove people to push School Days onto others back in the past.
