Blurb
With Madoka Kaname’s sacrifice, the hopeless cycle that once bound every magical girl to a terrible fate was broken at last. Still, the magical girls fight on against the dark magics that threaten the human world, which remains ignorant of the brave girl who saved them. Only Homura remembers her dear friend Madoka, a burden she has borne in all her battles since — right? Then how is Homura still going to school with Madoka, fighting alongside her, laughing as if nothing has happened? As her tragic memories return to her, Homura realizes she must not be in the real world, wonderful as it is to see her friend again. But if she is indeed trapped in a magical space, who among her magical friends could be the cause?

Differences from the movie
While the manga has few differences to the movie — the differences mostly being those of imagery, with all the scenes being otherwise kept intact and faithful — there are still a few notable changes compared to the movie. This section is an attempt to list them.
Volume 2
- There is a new scene at the beginning of volume 2 that is not present in the movie. Homura, with her glasses and braids removed, is walking to school, where she is approached and greeted by Mami and Bebe. Mami remarks how Homura looks stunning with her new look, and that Mami almost didn't recognize her at first. Homura then asks if Mami has spare time after school, leading in to the scene that takes place in Mami's apartment.
Volume 3
- When Homura sees Kyubey's conspiracy and before she says that she doesn't want such happiness, it connects to the final scene of the third volume of the original manga. However, when she running after Madoka happily, a darkened Homura takes a pistol and shoots her in the head. This might show her despair.
