[QUOTE=TheKnife;36740039]It's easy to say that in retrospect, but hardly anyone predicted it before its airing, even given six additional weeks of contemplation.
Surely that is a better indication of whether or not it was, as you say, predictable.
I hereby present these two quotes:
It makes little sense for someone to call something predictable if they were not able to predict it[/QUOTE]
Madoka[sp]turning into a magical girl in the end was inevitable and fairly predictable[/sp]and from there on it was hard for me to pinpoint what exactly her[sp]wish would be and how it would change her fate and as well as the rest of the world.[/sp]

Goo girls are great, but dying is kind of a turnoff.

good op[/QUOTE]
Also one of the most unfitting OP's for any show.
So, should I take the time to read the Berserk manga from the beginning or should I just watch the first episode of the OVA that was recently released?
I read somewhere that the OVA starts off after the first arc in the manga so if I were to skip straight to the OVA, will I miss out on certain key character and plot developments?

The New movie is awfuö Because of how they use cg. Read the manga. From the start.

The point seemed to be to make the most generic shounen OP they possibly could as another parody.
Shit katanagatari has some long ass episodes.

They are monthly released OVA's. They're pretty normal lengthed in that regard.
The normal length for any live-action show.
binbougami, reference show the anime of the season
Madoka Magica could have ended a number of ways (look up the list of speculated endings on the Madoka wiki). The ending we got took aspects from a number of them. If you call that predicted then whatever.
[sp]I think everyone was expecting a sad or depressing ending because of the writer's history so when we got the reasonably happiest ending it was all the more satisfying. [/sp]

Maybe I have my know-all on literary themes so it seemed relatively clear as day.
Like, of course I didn't 100% accurately predict it down to the last minute detail, but to me it was like all the arrows were pointing in that direction.

To me, those arrows were only obvious in retrospect; so much so that any other ending now appears to be completely out of place thematically.
Someone liked a Crunchyroll stream of Tari Tari.
"Might as well watch 5 minutes to see how it is".
And then it was better than I expected, just watched episode 2 and I want more.
i disliked madoka :(

The show is hilarious, and full of references that a simple baka gaijin like ourselves can get
