Of course, he's too busy being a pretentious violinist with [http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/851/bitchb.png/ his evil, scheming woman] <ref>Yes, I mad. ''(Sorry, it won't let me upload files yet ;_;)''</ref> to do anything so useful as keep a Wiki up-to-date. I have to say, as much as I like the series, I'll never forget the bizarre way it showed how romantic relationships supposedly work; boys don't have romantic or sexual feelings at all until a random girl says "permission granted" and then they instantly fall in love despite having never spent a moment with that girl before. The first one to grant permission is automatically made into his wife. It's an even more disturbing contract than the ones a certain Kyuubey likes to hand out. The fact that this utter mishandling of a common, everyday thing like how relationships work leads to the breakdown and death of a major character is a bit of black spot on the series for me, even if Sayaka wasn't one of my favourite characters.
Well I'm doing this all in the wrong order, but here's my introduction: I'm a guy from England who's liked anime on and off for most of my 28 years of being rained on by [http://www.eldoradocountyweather.com/forecast/climate/birminghamclimate.html the wonderful English weather] <ref>Notice the fact the rain is almost the same all year around and highest in August, of all times</ref>. When you live in a country where the climate leads to rain almost every day, or at least a strong possibility of it, and where Summer is typically three weeks of "not bad" weather, with a lowered chance of rain, you end up having a lot of time to read, watch TV, films and so on. In all my years watching anime, which would be infrequently from the age of 15 onwards but then much more frequently from the age of 21 onwards, I've never really spent much time watching the Magical Girl genre. ''Sailor Moon'' wasn't such a standard part of growing up as anime fan in the 90s here as it apparently was in the USA. I tried to watch both ''Futari wa Pretty Cure''<ref>Dat Nagisa</ref> and ''Nanoha Strikers''<ref>Dat Subaru</ref> and while I liked the ingredients, I found what they'd done with them kind of dull. I got about 4 episodes into ''Nanoha'' and around 20 into ''Precure'' before I drifted away from them. ''Madoka'' is the only one that kept my interest for the duration, and I came out the other side wanting more - particularly because it doesn't seem to be a concept that lends itself well to lazy rehashing like the average Magical Girl setting.
