I also found a new way to read Madoka after my latest rewatch. The friend I was showing it to pointed out that even the simplest of actions are super exaggerated and I thought “huh, they usually do that in stage plays when so the audience in the back can see better” ex:
Then I realized: this is on purpose. The way the whole story is told is privy to a stage play.
The very first things that happen are the curtains opening and Madoka entering centre stage.
The sets, too. Ik the chairs are symbolic but it also is very much spread out like it’s on a stage
Especially the shadow play with Kyubey, it’s a common thing utilized in stage plays.
Most of all, Walpurgisnacht is LITERALLY THE STAGE-CONSTRUCTING WITCH.
Walpy puts the play in action by killing Madoka and Mami in the first timeline. From then on, Homura is forced to act out the same play over and over again helplessly for times lines and time lines. Her lines become scripted, she’s become an actor and in the theatre witches play.

Some blobby boys to start the afternoon!
i actually spent a lot of time on it so here's my fav frames
my small baby boy i love him so much, look how smoll and lost he is
The first one here is that man with adhd who got lost in the spiral and then just walked out bc he had remembered ab dinner with his mom icon the second one is that boy whom spiral has been haunting for years And Helen! Is also there. love helen i also wanted to draw that woman with insomnia from the one of the very firsts episodes where michael was spiralling the grass for her (what a cute little dork) but i couldn't match it with the composition so yeah
it's actually pretty scary how much details of the michael story i still remember lol
I know im stealing this from coney but this is so funny they lowkey killed it at the end
