>Homura was too good for this world.

She ruined the world that Kyubei was trying to save

>>156210816

She was just trying to save her best friend from the horrible fate they've all been screwed into, It's hard to have a purer motivation than that.

It's just sad that in the end her friend had to become magic Jesus and die for everyone's sins.

>>156210810
OP you only need to watch the third movie. The first two are just the show edited down to 4 hours. The animation is better but the actual differences are extremely minor. The third movie, Rebellion, is a sequel and very good.

>>156210996
She wasn't trying to save her friend, she was trying to be a savior. It was never pure.

>>156211116

Did we watch the same series? She literally breaks down crying about how she can't bear to lose her only friend after all that backstory of her trying again and again.

>>156211116
Did you watch Rebellion? It's clear that she loves Madoka. That's the only reason she's able to do all of that shit at the end.

>>156211198
She had terrible self-esteem and wanted to be less pathetic, someone people look up to, like the person who saved her a month prior.

If saving Madoka was her #1 goal she could've just wished for Madoka not to die in the first place. Even at the end she asks something similar to "what did I do this for?" (inward-focused thinking)

>>156211304
She does, but it's mixed with other things, like hating herself for being a fuck up (again)

>>156211460
She asked that because Kyuubei told her that all she was doing only increased Madoka karma thing and it was making things worse.

>>156211304
She does it because that was her wish. She stopped being human when she became a magical girl because the nature of her wish altered the nature of her being.

>>156211460
>She does, but it's mixed with other things, like hating herself for being a fuck up (again)

She hated herself for failing to save Madoka, not for being a failure in the abstract. I don't know how you could get your interpretation out of the show. It states clearly that the only reason she still exists, that her soul gem hasn't been filled with despair, is that she can still possibly save Madoka. And when it does finally get filled up, it's not with despair but with love.

Why did Kyouko and Homura love each other so much?

>>156211645
>She stopped being human when she became a magical girl

Go watch the show again. They still have their human soul, it's just put into the soul gem. They aren't some kind of fucking robots.

Why did Madoka NTR her for Kyouko?

>She hated herself for failing to save Madoka, not for being a failure in the abstract. I don't know how you could get your interpretation out of the show.
Like everything else she does, it's a mix of both.

It's spelled out in the first half of episode 10. She's a frail outcast who thinks she's useless, and meets someone who isn't. Plenty of dialogue throughout the show hints at it - even after those loops she still wants to be remembered, is bitter about being bullied...

>It states clearly that the only reason she still exists, that her soul gem hasn't been filled with despair, is that she can still possibly save Madoka.
That just means she hasn't given up yet.

>And when it does finally get filled up, it's not with despair but with love.
She does love Madoka, but it developed over a long time - at the time of the wish, she only knew Madoka for a month.

>>156211643
Yeah, but that's still "I'm fucking things up"

Hang on a minute, Madoka loves Mami.

Maybe the American remake will be more uplifting.

Is Hilda your favorite character?

I'm happy her and Molly were such good friends.

If the next movie ever comes out will Meduka and Hameru finally kiss?

>>156213022
That's forbidden.

>>156211645
>She does it because that was her wish.
Nice tautology.

>>156213329
But they are such good friends.

Friends don't kiss in PG rated movies.

Did anyone else really hate the second movie?

I mean I like its constituent parts but shoehorning it into a movie format meant that the ninth "episode" part felt like it was dangling, and also they had to add stuff like that awkward forest transition into episode 10.

It's just worked way better as a television show

The first movie was worse. Removing the amount of scenes they removed is inexcusable. At least the second movie's main problem was just the awkward format.

>>156217146
The recaps in general try too hard. The OST is overly dramatic, and they manage to make the labyrinths look plain because everything else is so detailed and hypersaturated.

>>156217146
Many anime directors have stated that the pacing of the show was remarkable. Every episode is important and they flow together and rely on each other very well. Episode 10 is especially looked at in high regards. Condensing the series into 2 ~2 hour movies completely removes a large part of what made the show so good to begin with and brings up a lot of pacing issues because the show was formatted specifically with TV in mind.

>>156217569
It removes smaller things too, like how the first two episodes have the happy ED which switches to the darker one in ep. 3 after Mami dies, to indicate the tonal shift.

>>156218130
And "And I'm Home" after episode 9

Not even in the top 10 shows from its year

That was the year after. Only show of note I remember airing around Madoka was Steins;Gate.

Also it is fascinating how objectionable I find your taste. It's like you're trying to piss me off.
