Dead Mayuris everywhere.

Jake Epping in 11/22/63 also made a nuclear wasteland New England/Canada and sent that world in that timeline on it's way to moving on like in the Dark Tower

You forget she was up against QB, who not only has more resources and knowledge of the system than her but is also completely immortal and seemingly omnipresent.

Add to that the fact each loop caused Madoka to become a bigger and bigger target for QB, and you have the recipe for a cycle of failure.

She's also a middle school girl. Generally, middle schoolers don't have a lot of experience with the concept of time travel. Granted she could have fucking learned, but whatever.
>>
>>134532209
She was playing new game+
Except while her enemies got harder and her goal further unachievable, her stats didn't get better.

She just got more fucked up in the head

>>134532607

She could have solved everything from the beggining by wishing to save Madoka.

Or, just telling everyone exact dates and implications of what will happen in the future.

She only had to memorize a fucking month of almost nothing, really.

Mikuru, Marty McFly or even fucking Lucina would be able to do it just fine.
>>
She had to:
-pose as a middle school student
-deal with an super intelligent alien that never dies and can appear anywhere at anytime
-deal with Madoka's kindhearted, trusting and self-sacrificial behavior
-deal with the three other magical girls
-go witch hunting
-prepare for the super witch
>>
>>134532209
She only wanted to own Madoka's soul for herself. She enjoyed letting everyone suffer because all she ever was was hate. She was the villain from the start.

Madoka never loved her or considered her a friend, she pitied her and now she wants her dead for going too far in her wickedness.
>>
>>134532756
Wish to save madoka? Every time line ended with everyone perishing to the waluluigi, did it not?
>>
>>134532209
Did you even watch the show? She tried telling everyone what would happen and no one would listen until it was too late.
>>

Things she actually had to do.-

1-Make a record of major events in the timeline.
1.1-Make a copy on your closest stationery for every girl to have, the instant they see a detail that was already written on said record, they would at least be more willing to listen to Homura.
2-Only go to school ONCE, spy Madoka from afar.
3.-Kyubey was just about to leave Madoka and Sayaka on the 100th loop. Homura just had to stop Sayaka and nothing would have happened.
3.1-Threaten Sayaka to use her wish.
Have her family or Kyusuke hostage until she wishes that Madoka is not able to become a magical girl or just be cool and ask her to wish that Walpurgis doesn´t appear at all.

3.2-Don´t be a fucking bitch to Mami or Kyoko, have them join your side to defeat Walpurgis.

Or at least keep them from killing themselves with point 1´s record.

4.-Use the fucking Grief seeds you KNOW that will appear, it´s the 100th time she has done this, right?

Make a fucking list or remember when and where they would appear.

5.-Either team up with Mami, Sayaka and Kyoko without being a fucking edgy bitch or make Sayaka wish to make Madoka unable to become a witch when she contracts.

6.-Homura has fucking TIME STOP, ZA WARUDO.

Why would she have problems keeping Madoka away from Kyubey?
Plot.
>>
>>134533025
Now tell me what stopped Homura from heaving a heart to heart with Madoka, and spilling every last detail of her affection and why becoming a magical girl was the last thing she'd want to do.

Imagine if she had done that in an affectionate way instead of being hostile and distant as fuck while refusing to divulge the most vital information/
>>
>>134533198
>PMMM´s Homura.
Hey, Sayaka.
Hey, Mami.
Hey, Kyoko.

Fuck You.

>Walpurgis happens

WHY EVERYTHING I DO IS WRONG?!

>Logical Homura/Any person with a brain.

Hey, Kyoko
Hey, Sayaka
Hey, Madoka
Hey, Mami.

This shit is going to happen on these days, could we please cooperate in order to NOT die?

>Walpurgis happens

Homura/Kyoko/Mami kill the witch.
>>
>>134533272
The timelines were all slightly different and every additional girl was a disaster waiting to happen. Mami, for instance, actually tried to murder them all in that one timeline. All of this caused Homura to focus on going solo instead of risking someone else screwing everything up again.
>>
>>134533608
It worked on that PSP game...

Anyways, maybe she would keep calm if you caaaalmly tell her what happens to Magical Girls...and take away her guns.

Mami must be American.
>>
>>134533646
>PSP game
How'd that work exactly? Did Homura confess everything early or did she step in to prevent all the major bad events from happening?
>>
>>134533774
Things she did differently-

1.-Defeated Charlotte Early.

2.-She was kind and a pal to everyone else.

3.-She actually told Mami about what happens to Magical Girls.
It is different from the anime since, she just discovered from having to kill Sayaka.

4.-Sayaka still contracted, but didn´t conflict with Homura and learned that she meant well for everyone with her spoilers.

5.-She was in her "nerd" persona, so everyone cared for her.
>>
>>134533774
Let me rephrase point 3.

Mami discovered what happened to Magical Girls just after having to kill Sayaka, so the trauma is even greater than what happened in the PSP game, where Homura just told her CALMLY.
>>
>>134533157
Now I want a game about this, how you play as Homura and you must speedrun through this as fast and efficient as you can or you would get fucked and start over again and again until you succeed.
>>
>>134534002
The PSP game does that, actually.

There is a happier ending where everyone survives and are best pals and other endings where everything ACTUALLY goes to shit.

Every end exept the best one and the canon ones end with Homura retrying.
>>
The 'problem' is the story is designed so that there is no real way to achieve a perfect ending because girl drama. The anime depicted the closest thing to a perfect ending with Madoka dying and everyone else surviving, and Homura wouldn't accept that. It drove her insane.
>>
>>134534115
In the anime and manga, Everyone but Homura died.

Hardly a "good" ending imo.

She could have done a lot better by not being a bitch to everyone that surrounds her.
>>
>>134534197

Again it drove her insane. Her personal tragedy is that she refused to change despite being an agent of change.
>>
>>134534214
The fact that she changed made her unable to change anything.

Nerdy Homura was kind enough to keep everyone alive after Sayaka´s witch thingy.

Also, being insane or not, you have to be special in order to fail so hard as a time traveler.
>>
>>134533157
How do you know she didn't try all these things? Mami is too unstable. Kyouko(I think) always ends up getting caught up in Sayaka's shenanigans.

>Why would she have problems keeping Madoka away from Kyubey?

Did you miss the part where Kyubey can show up where ever the hell he likes?
>>
>>134534345
For someone that is supposed to be obsessed with Madoka´s future, she shouldn´t have wasted that much time on her house as she did.


What i am saying is, if you have the ability to travel back in time, the obvious frist step would be to spoil exactly what will happen in the future to everyone with details, so when they see the event happen in the exact way you described it to be they would be at least willing to listen to you.

Or just kill Charlotte Early and have everyone pointing at Mami when you tell her the truth.
