It's an Anime thing - Madoka Magica Part 1 of 2

For those of you who aren't aware, Madoka Magica is an anime about a girl named Madoka who gets wrapped up in a conflict between magical girls and witches when a strange creature named Kyubey shows himself to her. Offering to grant her a wish in exchange for her services as a magical girl, Kyubey hopes to turn Madoka into the most powerful Magical girl in history. Although his intentions for doing so may not be very good.
I've watched the entire series.
As for my feelings about the anime, it's clearly illustrated between parts one and two.
