I watched Madoka this weekend.
...holy crap. That's all I can say. I think I was horrified. But I couldn't really tell. I think possibly Kyubey is the most terrifying thing I have ever seen in any anime. Ever. Ever.
I love Madoka.
Can't wait for the movies. Of course, as anime goes, it'll be years before I can actually see them...
God, nothing is worse than waiting to watch an anime movie in the West.
Maybe when I get into more of a dark show mood, I'll try Darker than Black again... hrm.
If it's for the sibling thing, don't expect much. It's a major part of the main character's motivation, but it's still a relatively minor point, and his sister only gets a small amount of screen time in flashbacks.
That said, I love Darker than Black. It's structured pretty similarly to Cowboy Bebop, and also has a Yoko Kanno soundtrack. Whether you'll like it or not, however, depends highly on whether you're able to relate with the contractors. I can, so I like it.
So have you checked out Ore no Imouto yet?
And of course, Mawaru Penguindrum hits the sibling thing, turns it on his head, smacks it sideways, puts it through the washer and dryer, and then gives it a few tabs of acid.
