>>2017767
Why did we need a new one? These are pretty dead to begin with.
>>2017773
There always needs to be a shrine to our Yuri Goddess (and Demon), lest we be forsaken.
>>2017773
Hope.
>>2017776

Kyouhomu best ship after Kyousaya.
>>2017767
>ntr
Fucking serious?
Can never have a good thread here or on /a/.
>>2017773
'Cause it's literally just one ass forcing them when no one else wants one or needs one for that matter.
Of course they're dead and recently Madoka threads stay up because they're most of the time bumped by the same person.
>>2017804
>Fucking serious?
Of course not.
Have some bumping clams.
>>2017812
Don't like posting with you in general.
I've seen your behavior in other threads (not just Madoka) and serious or not you seem like a real asshole to be around with.
>>2017823
I hardly post in Madoka threads actually, and I sure as hell am not the one bumping them. You sure you got the right person?
>>2017767
>NTR
Now we're talking
>>2017840
Looks like futa. Careful.
>>2017843
Yeah, my bad. I will delete the post.
>>2017837
I don't even understand what the fuck is going on here.
Is that Mami or Nagisa or what?
>>2017846
Probably a witch-kissed Mami. For porn reasons.
Witch stuff continues to be criminally underrated.
>>2017847
What are you doing?
>>2017847
Futa again. C'mon, buddy.
>>2017851
>>2017852
>>2017853
I didn't even notice the futa dick in it. Again, my bad.
>>2017855
Time to visit your local optometrist.
>>2017859
I already wear my super sharp yuri goggles.
>>2017867
What's your business? I like seeing Kyouko in sexy situations with any of the girls. And you know why? Cause shipping is fun, there are no rules. Deal with it.
>>2017885
Exactly. I like to think that she's had sex with all the girls during all those time lines. A pity there's such a lack of KyouMado.
Now that we're on the subject of KyouMado...
>>2017892
Aoi Yuuki possesses her own character and uses her body for nefarious means.
>>2017896
Isn't today her birthday? Let's post KyouMado in her honor.
Last pic for now
Waiting on those lewd lingerie pics!

Shit, bad time to have left 10+ threads pending.
>>2018259
"New" ones keep popping up from time to time.
Pretty sure this was the latest one brought to the board's attention. http://deploy.loveisover.me/u/
>>2018262
That's the same one as before, actually. It was down because it was changing hosting.
>>2018265
Well then, that's news to me but at least we have one to a tenable degree.
How MadoHomu makes you feel inside?
>>2018273
Feels good, man.
>>2018235
Homura can edit the world to her liking. One of her edits was for Madoka to have Mami-tier tits.
If I were Homura I'd turn Madoka into my mind-broken sex slave who can only say "I love you".
>Wanted an Easter movie marathon
>Hadn't watched the Madoka movies
>Figure this is the perfect time
I mean, the series is about the birth and ascension of a god(dess).I almost wish I hadn't been spoiled over Rebellion, but then I can only blame myself. The movie's been out three years and I was just too lazy to sit down and watch it.
>>2018328
>If I were Homura I'd turn Madoka into my mind-broken sex slave who can only say "I love you".
Then let's be thankful that you're not Homura
>>2018329
Coincidentally, the TV finale aired during Good Friday, almost by the will of god(dess) considering how delayed it was by the earthquake/tsunami/nuclear meltdown and all.
>>2018336
>Coincidentally, the TV finale aired during Good Friday, almost by the will of god(dess) considering how delayed it was by the earthquake/tsunami/nuclear meltdown and all.
I remember that - the timing both for the finale and the earthquake was almost funny (what with all the destruction that happened in Mitakihara) and then the 'fixed' timing happening on Good Friday was just ridiculously coincidental.Tragic or not, those /a/ threads during the earthquake/tsunami were some of the funniest time I've had on this site
>>2018328
Homura is a good girl who just wants Madoka to live a happy normal life.
Dumping final volume of Suzune Magica in english.
>>>/a/139221671
>>2018457
I never saw Kyouko and Homura as friends, more like allies of convenience.
Wasn't it written somewhere in canon that Sayaka was Madoka's first love, or that she saw Sayaka as her prince or something? Am I just imagining this?
>>2018468
You're imagining things.
>>2018468
There is a flash back in TDS where it shows how their friendship started. Sayaka protects Madoka from some bullies when they were in elemtary school, but it is NOT romantic at all.
>>2018474
but you forgot about the part right after that where they 'practice' kissing eachother just so they can 'see what its like'.
...
..... or am I just imagining this?
>>2018466
True, but in a way that's a lot closer for them then 'friends'. They trust each other not to be shit-for-brains, agree that all the others are fucking idiots.
Plus they understand each other. Homura doesn't try and tell Kyouko to give up on Sayaka because she's doing the same damn thing for Madoka. The shared motives open up a lot of interesting character dynamics. And pre-rebellion, with Sayaka dead and Madoka away? I can see them getting along better then either of them with Mami.
More of a BrOTP, true, but depending on how sexually open you see different characters, no reason they can't make meaningful connections.
>>2018482
>Plus they understand each other. Homura doesn't try and tell Kyouko to give up on Sayaka because she's doing the same damn thing for Madoka.

I definitely see this - they're not entirely different, at least not once Kyoko begins to stop being such a stubborn bitch.
Homu going straight to Kyoko first in Rebellion can add a little something to this too, although she spells that out right away with the whole "you're totally different than I remember" thing.
>>2018482
>meaningful connections
Like saliva trails and vaginal fluids?
(pic related)
>>2018485
It fits her MO from the series too. Mami or Sayaka? Stalkerish to make sure they don't fuck up. Kyouko? "Yo bro, lets talk biz"
Kyouko and Homura respect each others space, and just generally respect each other. It's an interesting dynamic not anywhere else in the series, although TDS shows some Kyouko/Mami respect, kinda.
>>2018491
>It fits her MO from the series too. Mami or Sayaka? Stalkerish to make sure they don't fuck up. Kyouko? "Yo bro, lets talk biz"
>Kyouko and Homura respect each others space, and just generally respect each other. It's an interesting dynamic not anywhere else in the series
It may come from the fact that, in all of the timelines we see in the original series, Kyouko never seems to be doing anything shitty to Homura or Madoka.
She's the unfortunate victim of a despaired Mami, she dies to Oktavia/Sayaka at least twice, and unlike Sayaka she isn't stayed to die in every single eventuality - but we don't see her being antagonistic at all until the anime timeline with Sayaka, and she's pretty buddy-buddy with Mami in TDS
Homu may not like her (Homu may not like anyone who isn't Madoka - herself included) but at the very least there's a mutual respect and trust that she doesn't have with the other girls
>>2018491
I can see Kyouko and Homura having sex with each other as practice before doing it with their partners to make sure they can give the best possible sexual experience for them.
And then-
"How come you're so good at this?"
>>2018493
isn't stated*
>>2018495
>Howdya think Sayaka would like this position, Homura?
>T-this one might be a bit too hard on Miki Sayaka's spine
>>2018482
I can't see Homura ever choosing someone else over Madoka, but I could see Kyouko flirting with her if they met during earlier time loops. Not in an overt way or anything (she's too innocent for that), but just unconsciously.
>>2018495
I dunno, man. What Madoka and Sayaka likes might be totally different to what Homura and Kyouko like. It could easily lead to Homura being too rough on Madoka or something.
I'd read some stories/doujins about Homura and Kyouko bro-ing it up over their shared protection/obsession objects of interest.
>>2018504
I could go for some good ole fashioned bromance between Kyoko and Homura. To sorta mirror the thing that Sayaka and Madoka got.
>>2018503
Homura and Kyouko practicing technique together and trying all kinds of positions to evaluate their viability.
You know how it can be a such downer when you experiment during sex and find out it doesn't work out.
>>2018500
Well, With all the loops I can see Homura understanding polymory a bit, since Madoka just loves everyone too much. Being close to Kyouko in post-series isn't something Madoka would hate. It just depends on how sexual you see the different girls, If madoka can crush on Mami and Sayaka and Homura in different timelines depending on what happens, its easy to see the appeal of poly.
>>2018508
But muh purity and being only with the girls they love
I wouldn't mind them talking to each other about it all, though. Sending each other potential toys to buy, sending crappy tutorials because they're young and don't understand, sending porn videos ("Hey, Homu, this chick looks like Madoka!")...
>>2018504
Is there some where Kyouko and Homura fuck each other while Kyouko screams Sayaka's name and Homura likewise for Madoka while they both cry sad, bitter tears as they collapse in each other's arms while in the throes of orgasm?
>>2018511
>("Hey, Homu, this chick looks like Madoka!")...
... only to discover it really is Madoka. Oh shit.
>>2018514
Would meguca porn make extensive use of doing the gem thing?
>>2017812
damn thats some white homu.
Kyoko is such a sub, I wish there was more art of her that way.
>>2018514
I always figured that was how Mami paid for stuff.
I mean, that's the plot of every fourth fanwork I see at least.
>>2018517
Nooo, domme Kyouko.
>>2018518
>>2018519
She's like Homura, she's got the heart of a sub in the body of a dom. And Sayaka is the inverse, though Madoka is probably sub all the way through.
>>2018511
This.
Gotta keep that single partner purity, but bromance Kyouko/Homura could certainly extend to tea time talks concerning love making tips, or romance options, or gift suggestions.
>>2018520
Is Kyuubey selling his butthole? I can see how that can be profitable.
>>2018522
Lewd Pink is always a dom.

>>pounces and knocks homura on her back, leans up off of her, then gets in even closer to reaffirm her dominance and show that it was on purpose, braiding her hair to signify that she wants to be the one to protect homura, to bind up homuras true self to the innocent joyful thing she knows and loves.
Madoka is a dom.
>>2018522
Madoka is one hell of a dom, though.
>>2018524
Considering his immortality, Kyubey could always do snuff films.

I know one fiction that has that as an entire opening chapter.
https://www.fanfiction.net/s/6888002/1/Optimal-Outcome
But it might trigger your SPP thing, since Kyouko jokes about hooking up if they both strike out either in this one or the sequel (And someone else wrote a sequel to the sequel where it where it happens that is a real step up in writing quality.)
>>2018528
Pleb, Homura can only dom until the sex starts and Madoka turns the tables.
>>2018538
As expected of worst meguca.
>>2018522
Homura's got the kind of heart that changes destiny, that ain't no sub, more like the opposite. Kyouko is more of a tough girl with a soft center. I agree on Madoka, but /u/ always says Madoka is all about domination, so whatever.
>>2018540
Madoka isn't about domination, she's about acceptance, just like how she'll accept homu's tongue in her pussy in season 2.
>>2018540
Non-final timeline Madoka was confident, self-sure, and fine with skinship, something we see bits of at different points. And she gains that back as Madokami anyway.
Domming certainly isn't out of the question, unless we stick only to the Madoka that was shy and lacking in confidence after all of those timeline changes
>>2018540
But the truth of the matter is Madoka and Homura are both versatile.
>>2018538
So if Hitomi qualified as a magical girl, she'd also get the gem on her belly, and they can both have someforbiddensoul gem grinding while smooching or grinding clits.

>>2018558
She's have it on her crown...?
>>2018517
Dude she is not. Precisely why she's portrayed as the dom in majority of the fanart is because she IS the dom.
>>2018504
They could become buddies in stalking. I remember seeing this strip where they form an alliance to teach each other about different ways of stalking.
>>2018538
Stop bullying the Sayaka.
>>2018522
No. She does have a soft heart but she's still dom through and through. I could agree if anyone was of the opinion that Sayaka wouldn't mind being the dom every now and then, especially after the events in Rebellion.
I also like the idea of Madoka and Sayaka coming to each other for love advice.
>>2018573
Actually, Kyouko's a butch in the streets and a queen in the sheets.
>>2018516
Homura has always had a somewhat pale complexion compared to Madoka I believe.

I want this REALLY bad.
>>2018516
I think it's implied somewhere in the lore that Homura is only partially Japanese, and that she's only in Mitakihara to treat her heart defect, because apparently Mitakihara is a New York-tier cosmopolitan.
In my headcanon Homura is partially German, which explains why the witches have Germanic name.
>Akemi "Putting Incubators in the Incinerators" Homura
>>2018741
>I think it's implied somewhere in the lore that Homura is only partially Japanese
Wtf? She embodies the traditional Japanese woman: long black hair, pale skin, and a cool demeanor. She attended a Catholic school in Tokyo. Nothing about her says foreign at all. She is by far the most Japanese of the group.
>>2018741
Or Italian, with all the latin and similar symbolism.
Kind of like Roberta, really.
>>2018743
Homura's classmates mention how 'exotic-looking' she is.
>>2018745
Dude chill, it's just some dumbass in the internet. It's not like Urobutcher support their degeneracy.
>>2018749
They comment on her hair being long. No one uses the word exotic.
>>2018745

???
Where was this mentioned?
>>2018783
She said it herself in episode one to the girls who surrounded her in school
>>2018783
The very first episode.
We should have a crack shipping month again, to lighten things up.
>>2018769
Was he especifically talking about homusaya though?
>>2018794
I'm game.
What's even "crack"? Like I don't see a single ship that counts as canon. So that makes even ships like madohomu and kyousaya crack.
>>2018801
Just don't anon.
I think the first week should be Homusaya!
>shipping Sayaka with her arch enemy
Why is /u/ so mean to Sayaka? What did she ever do to you?
>>2018810
Oh no, we care about Sayaka anon! It's just that we like their hatesex more.
>>2018810
How did you even come across /u/ without understanding the glory of foeshipping?
>>2018810
I dislike her seiyuu.
>>2018810
I dont mind the crack, but I find HomuSaya aesthetically unappealing.
Nah, I think HomuMami is the right one to start off with!
>>2018827
Mami introduced her to bondage. Now the student has become the teacher.
>>2018830
Oh my.... Yes!
kyouhomu should be the first pairing.
>>2018831
It just has so much unexplored potential. Mami as a stern madam discipling the strong willed Homura into obedience. It drives me crazy just thinking about it.
>>2018839
>KyouHomuNagi.
Fuck, everyone got NTRd.
>>2018840
I like to think Mami and Madoka used to experiment stuff on Homura in the second timeline, which is why Homura treats them this way in new timelines.
>>2018844
I think this is exactly why it has so much potential. Homura is submissive enough early on and retains enough weakness to where I can easily see Mami being able to sexually dominate her, but she has enough baggage to where I can also see Homu taking out her pent up frusteration on her old senpai.
>>2018810
Hatesex is great sex
This thread is pure gold.
Real talk: MadoHomu is built on Madoka leaving Mami for those perfect braids and glasses.
>>2018851
I have a few headcanons for the girls .without disregarding the designated partners for each of the girls
>during their childhood Madoka had a crush on Sayaka but gave up on her when Sayaka told her about her feelings for Kyousuke
>Madoka crushes on Mami during most of the timelines
>Mami always ends up crushing on Madoka
>Mami used to have a massive crush on Kyouko
>Sayaka develops admiration for Mami that borders on a crush
>Sayaka also feels a tiny bit attracted to Madoka
>During the last 10-20 time lines, Homura starts appreciating Kyouko and develops admiration for her, bordering on a crush
>Kyouko had a crush on Mami, but she never admitted to it. This explains why she's so persistent when she meets her new crush Sayaka
>Nagisa has a crush on Mami
>>2018857
>Nagisa has a crush on Mami
But this is canon.
>>2018863
Is it though?
Nothing in her behavior hints at it.
Even when Sayaka confesses to Kyouko that she's the reason she came back, Nagisa says she only came back for the cheese.
>>2018894
>for the cheese
>the cheese
>Mami is the cheese
Anon...
>>2018894
What does she spend the whole movie calling Mami?
I ship Kyouhomu unironically. Thanks battle pentagram
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ohf0n6ymcso
>>2018900
Are you talking about MadoHomu?
>>2018900
You're confusing the witch Charlotte with Nagisa. Witches have zero self control.
http://madoka-chu.tumblr.com/
>>2018907
>Lived as Mami's pet for 30-45 days.
Nothing fetishistic about that.
>>2018907
Keep in mind that in Mami's mind they have been together for years. And even in the new Homuverse they will have plenty of time to bond.
>>2018899
Well, it does provide some material, unlike the PSP game.
>>2018851
But non-glasses straight haired Homu is best Homu
>>2018899
>tfw Battle Pentagram more or less confirms the yuri but is so awful that you'd rather it not exist
>>2018894
She calls and refers to Mami as the "cheese" more often than not. In fact, I don't think she says "Mami" at all, in the entire film. Did you not pick up on that?
Plus, she already knows how she tastes, in more ways than one
>>2018925
Madoka likes her Homu shy and submissive.
>>2018928
>I just wanted to eat cheese one more time
>I just wanted to eat Mami one more time
LEWD
Nagisa still a shit for ruining the Kyousaya moment though
http://doc.rust-lang.org/error-index.html#E0432
>>2018949
Yuri? In my programming languages? It's more likely than you think!
>>2018936
Eh, there wasn't much else to do with that scene outside of an actual kiss.
I was actually really surprised at the KyoSaya scene - I didn't expect them to develop their relationship at all, because it wasn't all that prominent in the tv show. We got a near confession and some lewd handholding
>>2018953
Tread lightly anon.
>>2018935
Factually incorrect.
>>2017772
Is the new homura manga is archived somewhere in these links? Library link seems dead with updates
>>2018953
Kind of to be expected when you think that Sayaka knows everything about the previous timelines, and has the knowledge of what Kyouko did for her. Hell, you don't even have to necessarily think of the hand holding scene as romantic (even if I think that was the intention), Sayaka is simply very touched and regretted the fact that she didn't have any time to bond with Kyouko. I don't see why people seem to think it's such a forced scene.
>>2018953
I think it comes down to how canon you consider the supplementary material. The series really doesnt give us any indication that anyone outside of Madoka and Homura can really be friends, let alone lovers. But if you take the interactions (not the events) between charaters in the manga spin-offs and games, then KyoSaya is very easy to accept and MadoHomu may as well already be sleeping together.
Multiple spin offs in Kirara play up KyoSaya's rocky relationship from the series. You can only save Sayaka in the PSP game by shipping her with Kyoko (Urobuchi says she will never be happy as long as she pursues Kyousuke). If you consider Rebellion takes place in an idolized world very similar to the Homura gag route (minus idol star Mami), then you see that they can become very close under iseal circumstances in contrast to the shit ones in the series.
Battle Pentagram (which is awful) came after Rebellion and is pretty unambiguous with the max relationship statuses:
KyoSaya: Mutual love
MadoHomu: Person of Fate/Soul Mates
>>2018971
I've deliberately avoided all supplementary materials and don't find Kyouko and Sayaka becoming friends (and more) hard to believe at all. Neither does Kyouko, who explicitly says they had become friends in the post-Madokami timeline.
>>2018955
Is this a contested point or something? I haven't been these threads much.
>>2018969
>>2018971
Regardless of whether it was romantic or platonic, it was still nice to see some mutual respect and friendship between them, when it's so prominent in fanworks and offshoots, but really only seen a little in the tv series. I think they have a good dynamic
>>2018991
>Is this a contested point or something? I haven't been these threads much.
There are some people who unironically view KyoSaya hand holding scene as pandering fan service. But romantically or platonically, they are officially paired.
>>2018990
Kyoko wanted to be friends. Sayaka was militantly against it until moments before she died. She was also unconcerned about Kyoko in death as well. Death and Rebellion made it all possible.
Thank you based satan.
>>2019000
>She was also unconcerned about Kyoko in death as well
Eh, in one of the timelines they spend the rest eternity just the two of them together in the afterlife.
By the way, I'm not really looking forward to the new project. It makes me fear for Kyousaya (as well as for Madohomu). But at the same time, I'd really like it if there was some closure. Eh, Rebellion's ending was just "too good" in my opinion, doesn't feel right to me.
>>2018959
That's not what she fucking meant, Homura...
...or did she?
>>2018961
Uploader here.
If you're talking about Tamura, I took it down because anon said they were going to host. Or atleast that was my impression. I can reup it if you want.
>>2019000
The only reasons Sayaka doesn't want to be friends are ideological differences and later her deteriorated mental state rather than incompatible personalities. Once they are fixed, as happens after Madoka's ascension, Sayaka and Kyouko should easily become friends, both being outgoing and rowdy girls. Besides, there are moments of Sayaka being friendly to Kyouko, like before her transformation and the scene of Kyouko explaining her past.

Unless they decide to just trash the story and the whole balance and selflessness vs selfishness thing they have going on, MadoHomu is safe. Neither Gen nor Shinbo think returning to the Law of Cycles is really a good thing and there would be no point in a continutation if they were just going to bastardize and kill an overwhelmingly popular protagonist. KyouSaya can be in danger because Gen thinks it's funny to make Sayaka suffer, but I think if this is the end, he won't do anything like that.

>Hell, you don't even have to necessarily think of the hand holding scene as romantic (even if I think that was the intention)
That's the whole problem though.
If you try to think around the intention of the scene by altering its meaning, then of course it's no longer going to feel forced. That doesn't change that it had that forced nature when taken as intended.

I'm not too sure on that. Gen's original idea was to just have Homura die and join Madoka in heaven. But things seem a lot more complicated now, and neither does it seem to be headed in a good direction.
>>2019017
I think you're trying to look too hard into this. It doesn't take years, or even months, for two human beings to develop feelings for each other. Sayaka and Kyouko were together for that whole month. And not only that, with Sayaka being completely aware of all the previous timelines. Kyouko had at least a little bit of recollection of Sayaka dying on her which she experienced as something dreadful. Sayaka was already over Kyousuke when the anime finished airing. And during Rebellion, she doesn't even care for him anymore. And guess why that is? People move on. Nothing about it felt forced, nor did it come out of nowhere.
>>2019024
Pretty much this. Kyouko is always immediately drawn to Sayaka, regardless of the timeline. Sayaka is a girl who desperately wanted to be loved. When she sees all those moments of various Kyoukos loving her, surely she's going to be at least intrigued.
>>2019024
He said that was his initial idea, but couldn't really move beyond that. Have you read the production notes? They don't even pass judgement on Homura.
>>2019028
Kyoko is only drawn to Sayaka if Sayaka becomes a magical girl.

80% of Madoka advertising involves MadoHomu. I know we want to believe anything can happen, but capitalism is a very strong force in the anime industry. Aniplex isn't going to turn down the ability to make the $300-500 1/8 scale Madokami-Homucifer reconciliation figure.
>>2019002
>Eh, Rebellion's ending was just "too good" in my opinion, doesn't feel right to me.
Wasn't that kind of the point of the ending?
Homura takes it upon herself to grant everyone's wishes (Kyosuke's hand is fine), or at least make everyone happy and set things right, and she gets to be Madoka's eternal protector (so long as she doesn't decide to 'become Homura's enemy') and yet, Homura doesn't seem happy about it herself. That little tip off of the chair at the ending definitely helps hint at it, but so do a number of her actions after the final new universe is created.
in a way, I think the ambiguity over a number of things in the ending is good. If the new project works off of that and develops something, it'll be good. And if it doesn't, if it ignores it in favor of some AU business, then the ending still stands the way it is, and that's fine.

I mean in theory, Madoka will live to about 80, right? If anything, Homura's cursed herself to a guarenteed eternal loniliness.
I know this is what Homura claims she wants, but Jesus. This is literally what HomuHater says she deserves.

>I mean in theory, Madoka will live to about 80, right? If anything, Homura's cursed herself to a guarenteed eternal loniliness.
It's fairly certain that she's going to 'wake up' far, far earlier than that. She might've been cut off from part of herself, but she's still a goddess and she's already shown hints at remembering the old 'verse.
I have a feeling that she'll humor Homu for a while, but at some point her selflessness and sense of duty will rule over her placidity (which was more or less the point of Homura's and Maoka's last conversation) and she'll rise up again. It's inevitable
>>2019057
>I have a feeling that she'll humor Homu for a while, but at some point her selflessness and sense of duty will rule over her placidity.
That conversation where she had no memory and thought Homu was a creepy autist? I have issues with that because she said the exact opposite thing in the barrier when she told Homu she'd never do anything that would make her cry and that she wouldn't want to leave everyone.
>>2019060
>I have issues with that because she said the exact opposite thing in the barrier when she told Homu she'd never do anything that would make her cry and that she wouldn't want to leave everyone.
She lacked her memories in Homura's barrier - they were given to Sayaka and Nagisa. She said that because she had no knowledge not only of the events that lead up to her decision to become a goddess, but also the knowledge she gained once she became a goddess.
It's like asking an amnesiac whether they would want to get into a car crash, and not telling them that they saved someone's life by swerving away into a tree.
>>2019064
I'm well aware. My problem is they're both invalid answers because neither is informed.
>>2019060
>because she said the exact opposite thing in the barrier
That was just her trying to sweet talk Homu into calming down so she could finally fuck her after a month of seduction.
Or, it just illustrates how pointless it is for Homura to try to find out what Madoka truly wants when she's asking versions of her that don't have enough information to make that call.
>>2019067
"Yeah, sure, never leave you Homu. Now put the glasses on and spread those legs."
Maybe if Sayaka wasn't so busy playing house Kyoko, she could have stopped this.
>>2019066
>I'm well aware. My problem is they're both invalid answers because neither is informed.
Madoka had totally forgotten herself and her mission in the Homulily barrier, but it's safe to say that the final conversation was a bit different. She actively remembered bits and pieces, and from the beginning seemed to feel off about things. We can't know just how much she remembers, or how deep her feelings of "this isn't right" are, but it's a different situation, and certainly one that's less stable than the barrier situation
>>2019073
No, after the molestation, she lost her memories again. Given no context and asked a vague question about order and desire iby a creepers is not a valid line of questioning. It's even worse considering she once again has no idea who Homura is.
>>2019006
>Ms. Akemi will see you now
>>2019073
Madoka broke the universe once because the idea of magical girls suffering made her sad without regard to the consequences. It literally destroyed an entire universe.
>>2019075
>No, after the molestation, she lost her memories again
She never had them back in the first place; she seemingly just had a terrible sense of 'something isn't right'. While she might not have been right enough in the head to answer Homura's question, Homura's response to her, Sayaka's memory alteration, and Madoka's near re-awakening point to a large posibility that Madokami will re-emerge.
>>2019078
>Madoka broke the universe once because the idea of magical girls suffering made her sad without regard to the consequences. It literally destroyed an entire universe.
Which is why she'll be at odds with Homura the second she reawakens and decides to take back the Law of Cycles.

After Homura did the exact same thing dozens of times.
We were on the topic of Homu and Kyouko being birds of a feather, weren't we?
>>2019024
>Sayaka being completely aware of all the previous timelines.
Again, this does absolutely nothing to change her feelings towards Homura. Why does it suddenly mean so much for Kyouko?
>Sayaka was already over Kyousuke when the anime finished airing. And during Rebellion, she doesn't even care for him anymore.
This just isn't true.
Please don't forget that she starts tearing up, eyes quivering the second she sees him together with Hitomi at the end of Rebellion. She very clearly still has feelings for him.
I'm not saying it isn't possible for them to be friends, but the weird pseudo-romantic "I missed you so much!" scene in Rebellion really just felt like it was put there as service for shippers. Mami did several times the amount of supporting and being kind to Sayaka that Kyouko did, why is Sayaka so nonchalant (outright patronizing in Homura's case) towards them? Homura and Mami both got along better with, and fought alongside Kyouko, why doesn't she touchingly remember that Mami had died, or that Homura had been fighting alone for so long, and then continued to do so in the Madokami universe?
If nothing else, it's jarring that we're supposed to accept that, off-screen, two characters who don't get along until one's dying moments are now suddenly so connected and close.
>>2019087
>>2019091
Not that anon, but...
>Nothing to change her feelings on Homura
I figure they just don't like each other. Sayaka is petty toward Homura the entire series and it would be within her character to be peeved that Homura was not only the good guy all along, but was also the largely responsible for the salvaltion she received at the end of the series.
>This just isn't true. Please don't forget that she starts tearing up, eyes quivering the second she sees him together with Hitomi at the end of Rebellion. She very clearly still has feelings for him.
She specifically states she is over Kyousuke in Homura's labrynth. We know she had her memories and she actively tries to be with Kyoko. Im not a fan of KyoSaya, but she cries after seeing Kyousuke and Hitomi because she thought she'd never see them again. She's seen playing with Kyoko in the last 5 seconds of the film.
>>2019091
>Again, this does absolutely nothing to change her feelings towards Homura.
I'd argue that it did. She still talked about how bothersome Homura was, and how she was making it super hard for them to save her, but that she thought saving her was worth it.
I don't think anime-timeline Sayaka would do or feel the same at all.
>Please don't forget that she starts tearing up, eyes quivering the second she sees him together with Hitomi at the end of Rebellion. She very clearly still has feelings for him.
Kyousuke was alive and well - and dating Hitomi - in Homura's barrier as well, and Sayaka had all of her memories there too. Maybe I was seeing it wrong, but I saw that crying seen as her happiness that her wish was still true (his hand was fine again), despite the fact that the existence/usage of Magical Girls wasn't really 'confirmed' in Homura's new universe (the girls didn't have runes on their rings, IIRC).
And I believe she straight out implies that she's over him when she mentions "learning from experience" and maturing.
>>2019091
>thinks Sayaka tearing up was because she has feelings for him even though she states out loud that she's happy to be alive
This rustled my jimmies.
Sayaka says she didn't come to save Homura. Rather, she came because it gave her a chance to see Kyoko again.
"Muh only regret in heaven was leaving you."
>>2019100
When you're trying to get a good Christian girl to hold hands with you, you don't go on an extended lecture about your feelings for some random third person. Throughout the film, Sayaka expresses empathy for Homura right until the moment she goes full devil.
>>2019095
>She specifically states she is over Kyousuke
>And I believe she straight out implies that she's over him
This doesn't really amount to anything though. Saying you're over something (or even accepting the circumstance) doesn't mean your feelings are all cleared up and everything's okay. I can see how you could read the crying as "Oh they're okay" but if she really cares so much about Kyouko and has nothing other than friendship for hitomisuke, why doesn't her scene end with her catching sight of Kyouko and starting to cry from happiness? Hitomi and Kyousuke approaching her together was a deliberate choice. I also find it hard to see her "I just didn't realize how happy it would make me to be able to say 'good morning' to you again" as anything but an excuse, that whole conversation just screams "I'm sucking it up because I want you to be happy".
>>2019055
>I know this is what Homura claims she wants, but Jesus.
It's what the entire character is built on. Trying to obtain happiness for Madoka at any cost, including her own happiness. She'd already made that choice twice before, once when she resolved to fight over and over and watch everyone die until she could save them, and then again when she intended to kill herself in the incubator cage and damn herself to an eternity of suffering to protect Madoka from the incubators.
>
>Which is why she'll be at odds with Homura the second she reawakens and decides to take back the Law of Cycles.
She's going to have to get the fuck over it because it's her fault, intentional or not. I just don't see a compelling conflict between them. Rebellion is almost all miscommunication and leads us to this:
"I need to go back."
"I love you too much to let you do that."
"But I have to go back."
>Madoka will eventually reincarnate
We know she'll reawaken, but plot aside, Homura didn't think that part through.
>After Homura did the exact same thing dozens of times.
Reseting time is not the same as altering the laws of reality. Both Madoka and Homura are guilty of doing this once (and will probably do it again).
>>2019105
>Saying you're over something (or even accepting the circumstance) doesn't mean your feelings are all cleared up and everything's okay.
I'm going to have to disagree. That's exactly what it means.
Also, in Homura's barrier, she specifically mentions her lack of romantic feelings for Kyosuke.
I know that there's a lot in this series that you can't always take at face value, but being alive again and seeing friends you never thought you'd get another chance to see is certainly a reason to cry, and there's not much to look deep into.
>>2019105
>I also find it hard to see her "I just didn't realize how happy it would make me to be able to say 'good morning' to you again" as anything but an excuse, that whole conversation just screams "I'm sucking it up because I want you to be happy".
Or... she is legitimately happy that she is seeing two people she thought she'd never see again. Right after she declared she would face off against Homura, the first thing she sees are two products of Homura's world: her own revival im the world and Kyousuke happy and fully healed.
>Homura stuff
Would Madoka REALLY be happy in a world where she has to be enemies with Homura? The whole first two minutes of the concept movie are built on this and it's my least favorite part of Homura's character: she doesn't accept that she is the person that makes Madoka happy despite being told so multiple times.
>>2019099
>No one has ever lied ever about how they feel.
I honestly don't see how you can read this as her being truthful
>K: Hey Sayaka! Good morning.
>H: Good morning, Sayaka-san.
>S: (Seeing them) Oh... (looks away, with a small smile, eyebrows lifting to indicate that the smile isn't genuine) yeah.
>S (Smile drops, eyes begin to quiver and she tears up more)
>S: (looking away and wiping her eyes) Um.. Good morning.
>S: Yep. Good morning! To you both.
Please note this Yep. It is extremely important, and is there because it implies that thought was put into the following words, that it's being gauged as the "right" thing to say.
>K: Is something the matter, Sayaka?
>S: (moving around in an exaggerated manner) No, it's just...
>S: (turning away from them again) I didn't realize how happy it would make me to be able to say "good morning" to you again.
Everything about Sayaka's body language and tone in that scene heavily indicates that she is not being genuine.
>>2019111
She uncomfortable because she is having to admit the devil's world is preferable to god's.
>>2019111
Overall, it's played as a happy scene rather than Homura torturing Sayaka by parading her crushed romantic dreams in front of her. I think it's possible Sayaka still has faint feelings for him, but the fact she can rejoice in seeing him and Hitomi together suggests she's mostly over him.
>>2019110
>Would Madoka REALLY be happy in a world where she has to be enemies with Homura?
None of the iterations of the universe are perfect. But the original is the worst, and in Madokami universe, Madoka's existence was reduced to nothing. She was a slave to the law, existing for no other purpose than to show up and kill Puella Magi just before they turned into witches.
I think Homura believes that Madoka will be happier as a regular magical girl, in a universe where she (Homu) can watch over and protect her. And I think that Homura would absolutely be willing to zero approval gambit and play the villain as much as she needs to (even to the point of making Madoka hate her) if it means Madoka can enjoy her regular life. The Madoka of this time line doesn't really know anything about Homura.
I'm not sure if that Madoka would feel so strongly about being enemies with "Akemi-san".
>>2019110
>she doesn't accept that she is the person that makes Madoka happy despite being told so multiple times.
Homura is the poster child for some mahou shoujo PTSD. Just about everything in her witch barrier spelled out "I hate myself", and the Clara Dolls are living manifestations of all of the terrible qualities she ascribes to herself.
Between her self hatred and doubt and her desire to protect the one thing that matters to her, she's deaf and blind even to Madoka telling her that it's all okay.
>>2019111
>Everything about Sayaka's body language and tone in that scene heavily indicates that she is not being genuine.
I'm sure it's hard to settle some heavy feelings in the span of a few seconds and still keep a good face.
>Dealing with being alive again, and going to school
>Dealing with seeing old friends again that she never thought she'd see
>Dealing with accepting that the previous two feelings are "wrong", because the situation that brought them about (Homura fucking up Madoka's universe) is pretty terrible
>>2019113
I agree it's happy. It's happy because she's starting to move on and accept that her friends are happy. I don't think it's happy because she suddenly no longer has any feelings for the guy she's been pinning after for literally years, and is just happy to see her friends are around.
The fact that she can TRY to be happy for them, suggests that she has matured and isn't going to become a witch about it this time. Not that she's now mostly okay with it.
>>2019112
Why? She certainly had no problem basking in the happiness of Homura's labyrinth, to the point of suggesting Homura just relax and not try to undo it.
>>2019091
>Again, this does absolutely nothing to change her feelings towards Homura
Are you serious? She was understanding of Homura for once. In all the other time lines she acted stubborn, never willing to listen to her and pretty much antagonized her.
>Why does it suddenly mean so much for Kyouko?
Because she saw Kyouko's struggles. Yes it is especifically about Kyouko.
>Please don't forget that she starts tearing up, eyes quivering the second she sees him together with Hitomi at the end of Rebellion. She very clearly still has feelings for him.
I can't believe you're bringing this up when the scene itself was so blatant about it. Hell, even Homura says that eventually Sayaka will grow accostumed to being alive again. She is happy that she's able to greet her friends again. Not only that, but having Sayaka have feelings for Kyousuke again woukd regress the character growth she had in both the final episode and in Rebellion.
>I'm not saying it isn't possible for them to be friends, but the weird pseudo-romantic "I missed you so much!" scene in Rebellion really just felt like it was put there as service for shippers
As I expained in the previous post, nothing of the romantic development felt forced or that it came it of nowhere. The anime itself heavily implies Kyouko > Sayaka. it isn't crazy to think that Sayaka would reciprocate given the chance to bond with Kyouko.
>Mami did several times the amount of supporting and being kind to Sayaka that Kyouko did
The point of the Kyouko/Sayaka development isn't that Sayaka had a better connection with Kyouko, it's that Sayaka desperately wanted the chance to be with Kyouko since they never had it while she was alive. The fact that it lead to something more than just a friendship is simply a natural progression.
>>2019111
You're trying to hard to explain this when you really don't need to.
Of course she still cares for her childhood friend bit to say she's still infactuated with him is a stretch.
