User Recommendations for Puella Magi Madoka Magica
User Recommendations
Both are psychological animes with dark twists at every corner that leave very heavy emotional impact.
Hopelessness. The world is cold, even with the smallest of humble desires one may have, another wishes to take that all away without any empathising for the one who asked for such a pebble of a wish. Elfen Lied and Puella Magi Madoka Magica know this too well. Both stories present very well what feels like the ultimate betrayal one can give to another, causing a whole cluster of events to spiral down. They both give off that same depressive discouraging atmosphere too, with constant signs of a "hopeless hope" to push forward with, leading to some untimely events and changes. Both are great anime in telling
