It occurred to me recently. I never really understood Sayaka and Kyouko's relationship. How did it come to be? I don't ever recall Sayaka (outside of Rebellion) being on positive terms with Kyouko but somehow, Kyouko came to value her.

Can someone explain the development of Kyouko's feelings for Sayaka?

>Makes no sense because Madoka doesn't seek attention.
Whether or not Madoka seeks attention is irrelevant to my point. If we follow what I believe(d) to be your perception of Madoka, that she merely helps because it alleviates her low self-esteem then yes, attention-seeking would make sense because getting attention would also alleviate it. Or perhaps being a bully. This is all to prove your opinion wrong/inaccurate.

Okay.

>> attention-seeking would make sense because getting attention would also alleviate it

I'm not the person you're debating this with, but that statement doesn't make any sense whatsoever.

If Madoka desires to "help" or to "do something meaningful for people" then what does attention have to do with anything? Getting attention doesn't "help". It's a totally different thing altogether.

>>13466
>attention-seeking would make sense because getting attention would also alleviate it
Attention-seeking is a response to a lack of attention. Lack of attention is not one of Madoka's issues. Her issue, as I stated in >>13464, lack of ability leading to a sense of uselessness, which drives her desire to be useful to others.

>If Madoka desires to "help" or to "do something meaningful for people" then what does attention have to do with anything? Getting attention doesn't "help". It's a totally different thing altogether.
My reasoning is that if her desire to help others is rooted in a desire to be valued by others then this desire in turn is the result of her failure to value herself i.e. the state of having low self-esteem. If it's a simply a matter of low self-esteem then in my eyes, there's a variety of possible solutions. These would include attention-seeking and bullying. Attention-seeking is viable because people only place their attention on the things they value so for a person to receive attention is for that person to be valued.
>>13468
>Attention-seeking is a response to a lack of attention.
Well that changes everything. I had the idea that general low self-esteem issues were resolved with general solutions e.g. finding ways to be useful to others, finding ways to garner attention, bullying, etc.

 No.13471

>>13469
That's an overgeneralization. Attention seeking is usually a response to neglect. Bullying is usually a response to being overpowered. Madoka's response is to a lack of ability. All of these include low self-esteem, but are different in nature.

The Puella Magi Wii website https://wiki.puella-magi.net/ doesn't seem to be very active these days. It doesn't seem to have been updated for a while….
New updates on the upcoming Puella Magi mobile game and the latest edition of the Manga Time Kirara Magica magazine need to be added.
If only I knew how to update it.

>But i don't see Homura being hated by current fans

People like dark, attractive anti-heroes. Are you really this new to anime?

>yet she is the new "evil" in the future of the franchise

Yeah, clearly shown by every official work making her sympathetic and pushing MadoHomu on the readers and viewers during and after Rebellion. Once again, I question if this is your first anime. Hero v. anti-hero and anti-hero becomes "evil" to save hero are such overused trope that I'm certain the major delay in the sequel is coming up with a plot that isn't predictable.

Maybe Kamihama is a rift in space time caused by Madoka's wish. Would be a good excuse so they could put any magical girl in gacha, even Tart.

Another possibility is being a massive experiment by someone, like in Kazumi Magica.

According what they say in the trailer and in the official web, the story sets in an alternate timeline when Homura sacrifices herself to (defeat Walpurguisnacht?) in ordrer to save Madoka. Maybe she turned Godhomu (not Ai yo) and her new magical girl laws probably will consist in that magical girls can use her own witch's power like the black wings at the end of the series.

Just speculating except from the sacrifice that is mentioned by Madoka and the fact that Madoka is searching Homura like she will find somewhere and the girls don't know why they can use that strange power in the new city it will be because they are'nt aware of some puella magi laws like enkan no kotowari or Homura does'nt become a God neither.

>Law of Cycles is literally EoE tang
>Let me tell you why a game can take place there.
The Law of Cycles isn't a location were people casually hang out. You have to die before you can even get there. Either everyone is fake or everyone is dead.

>>13404
It's amazing no one else is mentioning this fan fiction on Twitter. Which is more likely to mean you're a shit translator more than anything.

The only person pushing the Law of Cycles thing was that retard from Tumblr, WarriorKK. I remember when they started this shit with a shit translation that was complete at odds with the official translation and claims that Madokami and the Law of Cycles played a role. Which was never stated anywhere.

Okay anons, now that the dust has settled, I think we can say that Wraith Arc was a thing. Personally I gave it a 5/10 on my first read, but gave it a 7/10 after a re-read. I know some people are still sperging out about Wraith Arc and after checking some places out online, I'd like to ask a question.

Why are some fans confused that Homura is the main character of Wraith Arc? She's the focus on every cover. To me, much of the complaints that aren't on a technical level or about the perceived plot holes all seem to be aimed at the story not going like how they wish it would. It seems like a lot of the noise is "the characters don't act like I want them to" or "this isn't like the fan fiction I envisioned."

They're literally yin and yang. Homura's wish gave birth to Madokami (light), Madoka's wish gave birth to Homucifer (dark). The only thing left is for them to become one being and literally yinyang or kill each other.

Well, -a- balance was restored. Doesn't seem to be a particularly stable one. The state of the world at the end of rebellion (familiars playing on the streets, half the moon missing, an active and grumpy demiurge) makes it seem like an arrangement without a future, with Madoka 'waking up' being a very likely outcome.

KM is on hiatus.

Mami Tomoe's Everyday Life will be run in another publication for the time being.

Tart will be concluding.

Oriko will be released at a later date.

All other stories will be concluded for the time being.

They aren't saying it's a cancellation or final issue, just looks like they ran out of stuff to justify a full magazine.

How was I trolling? You (presumably) gave some speech about how Madoka was "obviously" the next Gundam. Nothing suggest that at all. Shinbo hasn't been in any hurry to continue/finish the series and why would anyone want a completely new characters at this point? This isn't even what people would consider a long running series considering it's essentially been on hiatus for going on 4 years.

 No.13259

both gen and one of the magica quartet producers have said that's exactly what they want; obviously, shaft is too busy making money with *monogatari to give more resources to madoka.

how stupid do you ahve to be to say that they are in hiatus when they recently made the concept movies ?
there are also the official videogames, the pachislots and the 30+ manga series, if anything the manga aspect got overloaded and that's the reason they are going to slow down.

Because if yes, I'd like to know what aspects of the production quality you found less than ideal so that I can improve on those areas.

The Wraith clones and Homura all said she was afraid to destroy it because she belived it was her one link to Madoka. She's running from the sheild because she's tempted by loniliness to just stay in there with Gretchen just to be with Madoka. This fear is proven wrong because it's also Madoka's desire to for her to remember her.

In terms of Kyubey, she has no reason to worry. He just thinks she's a crazy homeless girl. Curiosity is illogical and nothing about Homura is logical.

>>13242
Your pet theory is wrong. Everything balances out in the end. Kyubey, Sayaka, and Kyouko all say this. The issue was Homura over came hope and despair. Her soul gem was tainted with love, not curses. In this respect, her will overcame Madoka's.

AI YO isnt just a meme. Love is what Homura feels for Madoka and it's through love she continues to suffer. There's no hope or despair that can overcome it, because as stated, love is the strongest human emotion. That's meant to be taken literally. I dont know what's coming next, but it's seems like it's going to be pretty gay.

 No.13249

>>13248
I doubt it. Did you see Star Wars: Rogue 1? Because that's what this pretty much was. An interlude is a bridge between two parts. The sheild was just a method for Kyubey to know that Homura was telling the truth. As Homura mentioned, it's trash, and now that she fulfilled her original wish, it is now even more so.

Homura's wish will have to be addressed by Madoka and the sheild may have a bit of a symbolic role, but it's unlikely that they'll repeat Wraith Arc's plot.
