Sounds like me not wanting to try Souls games because people only sell them on how hard they are. Even though I'm pretty sure that's not the only reason why people like them at this point.
Madoka is good, you should try it.

The series honestly wasn't a normal magical girl series before episode 3 like people like to claim. It already had plenty of darker leaning stuff to it. Mami's death may have still been surprising but it wasn't nearly as much of a "twist" as I see claimed.
It's a good series (and movie) though. You should watch it. Rebellion is also a top tier Shaft production.
