Summary

Observations

  • While healing, Sayaka is surrounded by musical notes, possibly referring to her wish with Kamijou.
  • During the opening sequence, the "liquid" spilling from the top of the screen is now blue (instead of orange)
  • Kyubey doesn't say whether or not he contracted Homura, just that she's irregular. Does he not know or is he just withholding information?
  • The song that Kamijou plays on the roof is the Bach/Gounod Ave Maria, arranged for violin.

Speculation

  • The dead cannot be brought back to life with a wish, as implied by Homura in her conversation with Madoka.
  • At least some grief seeds seem to be able to recharge multiple soul gems (as seen in episode 2). There also seems to be some surplus of grief seeds relative to magical power used. However, there must be some other use for them other than recharging, or otherwise Sakura wouldn't be so eager to get so many.
