#homura best girl

Doomed

Was looking at all those crazy madoka artists and got inspired 🥹 Maybe ill draw more madoka bc it’s my favorite show ever

[sh5]

been rewatching pmmm

[concrete-3ater]

if I had a nickel for every time I was in a fandom and a child character had a breakdown and did something that accidentally hurt another character, and then the fandom all turned on the character and vilified them because they [the fandom] can’t understand that sometimes 14 year olds make mistakes when they’re going through something traumatic, I would have 2 nickels

not a lot but it really is weird it happened twice

[tea-cat-arts]

People on this website will be like "you can't handle the moral nuance of Madoka Magica! Not everything is black and white" and then claim everyone criticizing Homura's actions thinks she's a terrible person in the same sentence

Howdy, hope you dont mind my intrusion in this lovely ask box but I would like you to rate this strange sayaka figure i found. (yes it is official)

personally i'd give it a 3/5. her eyes clearly have knowledge we cannot comprehend behind. i also feel if i incur her wrath she will bite me and it will be a big ouchie :(

[sorry if being silly here is banned i just wanted the opinion on this from the 1# Sayaka expert]

No worries, we all like to receive and discuss the silly here. That’s half the fun of opening mail from the Internet anyways, me thinks.

Right, the rating. I have actually seen this Sayaka figure on Shopee (orange hellsite that drove me broke) before, and the version I saw was even slightly sillier. The poor photo quality makes the toy appear like clay, at least with all the shininess of it, lacking severely in its final polish. The pose they chose for this Sayaka figure to be in looks acceptable on a normal, flat surface [ref: image 1], but then you look at the second picture and all of a sudden Sayaka isn’t just Madokami’s angel, but her feral bloodhound. It is undoubtedly one of the goofiest Sayaka merchandising to exist out there on the figure line. One must imagine what Homura whispered in their ears when this idea was conceived.

Overall, I think it’s very silly, in a cute sort of way. I would not mind having her join my existing collection despite the apparent oddity she presents herself with. 3/5 is a pretty accurate rating, falling in the lane of ambivalent judgement. Although, with how unique it is from the rest of the typically gorgeous Sayaka merchandise, I’m willing to bump it up to a 4/5 given it made me laugh. She’ll survey the surrounding for enemies as you sip your drink! What more could one wish for, really.

Thank you for the ask and kind words 🙇‍♂️!

is it just me who thinks......i wish madoka was special for some other reason besides homuras timelines.

I DO LOVVEE the idea of homura doing everything in her power to save madoka....but i was kind of hoping for madoka to genuinely just have something really special about her, even if it was as cliche as her kindness or purity or want to help others, i wanted that to sort of fuel her power.

im not gonna lie it was a little disappointing after her whole talk of "i have nothing special about me" for the thing that was ACTUALLY special about her not really have to do with why she is such a good person, only with homuras decisions.

AND YEAH homura did make those decisions BECAUSE of madokas kindness in a way, i just wish it directly applied to how she was one of the most powerful beings ever, and not because she was so focused on by homura.

I HOPE THAT MAKES SENSE also i love madoka magica no hate i think its perfect and amazing this is just a thought

[echidnana]

ok yeah finished pmmm and even vaguely knowing the ending already we were still floored

[biggesthomuradefender]

this blog is a blessing!! homura is the one character i could listen to people talk about for 12 hours straight and i'd eat up whatever they'd have to say, keep going op you're so right

AAAAAAAAAA thank you so much !! that rly means a lot 🙏

ppl like u are literally the reason i made this blog in the first place and the reason i wanna continue posting stuff :)

Random Madoka Magica head canon, but like Mami’s totally into dark academia right? Like I can so see her in a calve length, button down, brown plaid skirt with a simple off white blouse under a half buttoned up cropped tan cardigan topped with a cute little white beret. Bonus points if she doesn’t put her hair up in her twin drills but I can honestly see it either way. Now I really wanna draw the girls in casual clothes because quite frankly there isn’t enough art of them and what we have doesn’t give any of them a consistent fashion style.

i like that whoever translated this let kyoko say fuck.

[illdothehotvoice]

Anyways with Walpurgisnaught Rising coming out y'all better start acting real normal about Homura real quick

[technicalknockout]

Watched pmmm for the first time before bed last night, it was amazing but watching it before sleep was maybe not the best decision. you have no idea how unhinged my dreams were

[kuramirocket]

I just saw all of Puella Magi Madoka Magica for the first time (I only really knew that the white creature was evil) and HOLY SHT. I don't know what I was expecting, but it wasn't any of THAT.

Now need to find where to watch the movies!!

Homura is my fave!! She is best girl!

[eyelessrabbit]

"Oh madohomu is toxic" congrats on also falling for the 14 year olds edgy depressive speech

[priestess-of-yuri]

the thing about pmmm analyses that a lot of you people forget is that these girls are like. 14. forget the loops they're literally mentally all kids. it's not so much about selfishness or selflessness. you miss the point. you forget who the real enemy is: the incubators, for the deception and abuse.

AND ALSO. putting all my beef in one big post. i would argue even with all the christian allegories that madokami represents jesus/god but homura does not represent the devil.

why? because homura hates herself. she loathes her very existence. she fancies herself evil for pulling madokami from the sky but she doesn't want power.

the devil does not hate himself. the devil is proud. he loves himself, and only himself. he wants power. he wants to rule.

homura does not want to rule. she wants everyone she cares about -- that's right, all of the quintet, not just madoka -- to be happy. even if it means playing the bad guy. even if it means splintering. even it means she has to break herself and fall apart and become her beloved's enemy. homura treats herself as evil in the way an unreliable narrator would.

this is not about the devil and god. i'm not educated on the bible enough to know for sure what this is. but my best guess?

this is about jesus and judas.

doomed yaoi became doomed yuri.

could i make it any clearer?

they're not critiques on the christian god, the devil or blind faith. that's the worst, most tradcath reading of both the bible and pmmm i've ever heard.

homura and madoka are doomed by the narrative, not each other.

they're just trying to make things work in the way that aligns with their own youthful motives. the way that they love. throughout the series, madoka wants to save everyone and had the power to. homura wants to save everyone and only had the power to increase madoka's potential.

that is the difference between them.

remember? homura called herself a demon. demons are different from the devil himself, and yeah, girl needs an exorcism from her girlfriend.

if you call homura and madoka selfish or selfless you're missing the point and actually, you're adhering to reductive readings of not just the media but how you may be approaching mentally ill kids too. art imitates life and all that.
