Oh sh... That's probably the only advantage of hardsubbed fansubs - groups could put random "this is a free fansub, not for sale" messages here and there, and it was much harder for such bastards to operate. :/ --KFYatek 10:20, 26 April 2011 (UTC)

Is the Products page only intended for books, CDs, and DVDs, or will items such as tapestries, shirts, figurines, and cellphone straps be included? -184.100.13.211 13:36, 10 February 2011 (CST)

I think those should belongs to Merchandises. This page should contains only contents products, e.g. CDs, DVDs, Manga. --0x99 14:52, 10 February 2011 (CST)

第1巻購入特典 ・・・ 描き下ろしB2ポスター (B2 poster for HMV) Animerican-Redeemed 09:17, 19 April 2011 (UTC)

They're connected to certain stores: the first one is for Animate, the second for Toranoana, the third for Gamers, the fourth for Sofmap, and the fifth for HMV (Madoka even appears to be wearing an HMV uniform!). My guess is that they're either pre-order bonuses or are included with the box sets sold at the respective stores. Each bonus is different -- for example, one is a phonecard, another is a poster, and another is a box. There are purchase benefits listed for three other companies, too: a telephone card for Getchu, badges/pins for Lammtarra, and a 460x700 mm pillow for Chara-Ani. Momoism 06:22, 19 April 2011 (UTC)

Ah, I see. Since it's official art and all, is this sort of artwork supposed to eventually be released online at a good, cleaned-up resolution? Would be nice to see them up-close without a "SAMPLE" watermark... Animerican-Redeemed 09:17, 19 April 2011 (UTC)

I don't think they're "supposed" to be released online (merchandise never is), but it's possible that some kind fans in Japan will scan in their phone cards/posters/bromides at a good resolution and share them with the fandom at large. The Toranoana tapestry and Chara-Ani pillow are up in the air, since they're obviously not very scannable. (Note that there's also a chance of Aniplex releasing an artbook for the series, which would likely contain all of the promotional images alongside concept art, new artwork, etc.) Momoism 11:55, 19 April 2011 (UTC)

4koma manga

Translations for the 4koma manga

I may have gotten some of the nuances wrong, I've only been studying Japanese for a year and a half. Corrections appreciated

Comic 1: Completely prepared everyday

Panel 1: Kyuubey: Mami, you baked another cake today? Mami: Yes

Panel 2: Mami: Someday, if happen to make a friend, I'd like to treat her properly (treating to food) Kyuubey: ...

Page 3: Several days later

Kyuubey: Mami! I found two girls I have a good feeling about. I'll go invite them

Mami: Really!?

Page 4: Mami: Th.. then can you make it so I happen to pass by and meet them? Mami: Please!!

Comic 2: Teens

Panel 1: Kyuubey: Help me... help me Madoka...

Panel 2: curious looks Kyuubey: Help me... help me!!

Panel 3: Madoka: ... Sayaka! I can hear a voice inside my head!

Madoka: It's saying "help me"

Sayaka: Eh?

Panel 4: Sayaka: What's that, that's super cool! That's awesome! That's really awesome!

Madoka: Really? It's cool? (キャラ立てる, means character standing out）

Madoka: No way!

Hahaha hahaha

Kyuubey: Help me... help me...

Other Books

I've added the official guide book to the main page, since it can be ordered normally. There is another book with 64 pages of rough sketches, 魔法少女まどか☆マギカ・設定資料集:

(and perhaps a few other shops)
