My personal favorite for flawed reasons is Madoka because I was there for the live reactions to the infamous episode and it was magical watching everyone lose their shit. It was also my re-introduction to anime after being shamed out of it for liking sailor moon as a kid.

        Honestly, I'd be surprised if it wasn't popular here. A pretty common interpretation, imo, is that

        Kyuubey represents capitalism and patriarchy, among other things. I also have compelling evidence that he was behind 9/11.

            kyubey is exploiting young girls into sacrificing their lives to make an abstract number go up while telling them that this is actually empowering. i don't have much beyond that, but you could definitely find a valid reading.

          Such a good show. I know the chans are bad, but looking up the archive of the live discussion thread for episode 3 is always a laugh. Urabuchi perfected the bait and switch tbh.
