Trying to write about how Kyoko and Homura being religious affects their characters but I'm not smart enough to make it coherent.
#im speaking purely from the experience of someone who was raised christian in brazil#but like#there's this weird emphasis on focusing on your duty to serve god#and homura does just that#she leaves everything behind to live for Madoka#at first to save her. then to honor her sacrifice. and then to save her again#kyoko on the other hand?#seems to have abandoned the idea of duty completely#and whike yes part of it is just a persona and she's actually pretty kind once you get to know her#she doesn't have something to devote herself to like Homura does#she lives for herself#something to note is that she talks to god before dying#but we never see homura praying or doing anything similar as far as i remember#implying kyoko believes in god but still chooses to live her life in a way that goes against her religious upbringing#and homura probably doesn't believe in god but still lives in this devoted way often assiciated with religion#except its towards madoka instead of the god she was taught about in her catholic school#literally 2 insane extremes of religious trauma#idk im rambling#puella magi madoka magica#madoka magica#pmmm#kyoko sakura#homura akemi#religion#religious trauma#pmmm analysis
