Homura Residence
The residence of Homura Akemi. An aging, European-style building at a Y intersection in a district surrounded by skyscrapers. It is unclear if this is a new building or part of the original town that didn't undergo urban redevelopment. Contrastingly, the interior of Homura's apartment is ultra-modern, and the walls appear to be digital displays of documents pertaining to witches. There is a decoration on the ceiling made of clockwork, and the 'desktop' within the digital display features a pair of swinging, bladed pendulums. Along a fourth, unseen wall, there is a row of candlesticks and pillars.
Walpurgisnacht Documents
The following is a gallery of the documents on Homura's wall display.
A woodcut image of a Witch resembling the one from Episode 1.
On a black space between a scan of a Renaissance-era book and a diagram with a sticker that says "Plan A," there is a line of green text that says 1914_Bücher (books?).
- Beside Homura's left hand, there is a similar image of a feminine figure colored in neon green. Beneath it, in red text, are the words "Walpurgis Nacht."
At right, there is a passage from Faust.
At top left, there are the words "Bühnentechnik" (stagecraft) and "Gear" in stylized text.
- A thick-lined illustration of the Episode 1 Witch is shown to be a book page opposing the annotated diagram of the half-skirted feminine figure.
Speculah and Observations
- The apartment layout might represent a clock of some sort, in line with Homura's time manipulation abilities.
- Homura created the apartment interior with magic.
- 2ch has referred to the residence as 「ほむホム」 (homu homu). The first "homu"("ほむ") refers to Homura herself, and the latter comes from the word "home," usually pronounced "ホーム" in Japanese.
