Madoka Magica Online Story Quest 1

Summary

The Player and Kyubey find a Witches labyrinth. Kyubey explains that defeating Witches and their curses is the duty of magical girls like her. Kyubey says that barriers are an unpredictable place, but that she should be able to get through it with her power. With that, he encourages her to enter the barrier.
After the battle, the Player and Kyubey exit the labyrinth and run into Mami. Mami asks who the Player is and asks what happened to the barrier. Kyubey said she had already defeated all the familiars in the labyrinth. They start making introductions with each other, Mami introducing Madoka and Sayaka to the Player. Both of them reveal that they are newly contracted magical girls and that they are happy to meet the Player. With introductions out of the way, Mami asks the Player to join their team.

The day after, Madoka exclaims after school what a surprise it is that her classmate from last year, the Player, became a magical girl. Sayaka says that she will give the Player a warm welcome despite Mami warning that other magical girls can't be trusted. Madoka reveals that, within the next few weeks, a Witch called Walpurgisnacht will descend on Mitakihara and, as a result, many magical girls are showing up. Madoka says it would be nice to make friends with them, and asks if the Player thinks the same. Before she can answer, however, Mami telepathically communicates that she found a Witches wards and needs backup as soon as possible. Sayaka, Madoka and the Player rush off to help her.
After battling inside the wards, Mami says that the Witch must have fled. Sayaka asks why they don't chase after it, and Mami says that Witches will try to run and hide to outsmart magical girls. As a result, it would be very hard to find the Witch after it runs off. She says that, while it would be good to fight it today, it doesn't seem likely to hurt people and says that Madoka, Sayaka and the Player should prepare to fight it tomorrow.

The next morning, Sayaka worries about the Witch they left behind yesterday as she, Madoka and the Player walk to school. Madoka agrees, saying they should find it quickly before they can hurt anyone. If they don't, she says, then they would be terrible magical girls. She asks the Player if she feels the same, but Kyubey interrupts that he found the Witches barrier. The three of them run off to find Kyubey.
After the fight, Kyubey apologizes for mistaking a Familiar with a Witch. Mami wonders what could possibly have made a Familiar grow to such a size, and says it's not Kyubey's fault. In the end, she says, it's good that they killed it since it was most likely about to become a Witch. Madoka says that the Witch that birthed the Familiar must be nearby and suggests they find it, but Mami says they need to think of a plan so they don't get hurt. Madoka says that she wishes all of them could do something.

The next day, Madoka excitedly telepathically communicates to Mami. Mami tells her to calm down if she wants the telepathy to work properly, and asks if something is wrong. Sayaka says that nothing is wrong and that she found a plan to kill the Witch. Since the Witch grows roses, she says, the Witch might get angry if they cut the roses. Mami says that she hadn't thought of that, and that it is worth a shot.
Sayaka shouts out to the Witch, telling it to show itself. Madoka wonders why nothing is happening. Suddenly, a new face appears and says she found the Witches barrier and that she will wait with Kyoko Sakura for them at the entrance. Sayaya is bummed that her plan didn't work, and Kyubey says that's what happens with plans based on desire. The group goes to meet with the transfer student and Kyoko Sakura.

At the entrance to the Witches barrier, Madoka introduces the Player to Kyoko and Homura. She says that they are extremely strong magical girls. Kyoko says that the newbie better not slow her down, leaving. Homura is surprised at the new face and Madoka asks if she knows the Player. Homura says that she doesn't and that they better follow Kyoko.
After the battle, Madoka cheers about the Witches defeat. As Sayaka joins in, Kyoko complains about how annoying newbies can be. Mami starts telling the Player about Grief Seeds and how they are used, saying that it's important she never forgets.

Quest 1-1 1-1 Before Kyubey よし、早速見つけたようだね。 これが魔女が隠れ潜んでいる迷宮…… 結界への入り口だ。 Alright, it seems we found it straight away. This is the labyrinth where the witch lurks hidden... the entrance to the barrier. Kyubey 魔法少女の使命は、こうした結界を 見つけ出し、世界に恐ろしい災厄を 撒き散らす魔女を倒すことだ。 Finding this sort of barrier and defeating the witches that spread terrible disasters to the world is a Magical Girl's mission. Kyubey 結界の中は、なにが待ち構えているか 分からないとても危険な場所だ。 Inside the barrier is a very dangerous place, where no-one knows what awaits you. Kyubey 君の力なら切り抜けられると思うけど 十分注意してくれ。 You should be able to make it through with your power, but take plenty of caution. Kyubey さあ、準備はいいかい？ 準備ができたなら魔女の結界に 突入しよう！ Are you ready? If you're all set, let's break through the witch's barrier! 1-1 After Mami キュゥべえ？　それに……あなたは？ いま結界の反応が消えたけど、 まさかあなたが……。 Kyubey? And... who are you? The reaction from the barrier disappeared just now, but don't tell me you... Kyubey 一足遅かったようだね。 使い魔は全て彼女が倒したよ。 It seems that you were a second too late. The familiars were all defeated by her. Kyubey Player、 紹介しよう。彼女は巴マミ。 そっちの２人は……。 Player, Let's do some introductions. She's Tomoe Mami. Those two people are... Sayaka あたしは美樹さやか。 デビューしたての新人魔法少女でーす よろしくねっ！ I'm Miki Sayaka. I'm a newcomer magical girl who's just debuted--! Nice to meet you! Madoka わたし、鹿目まどかです。えっと、 わたしもまだ新人なんだけど……、 どうぞよろしくね！ As for me, I am Kaname Madoka. Um, the thing is, I'm also still a newcomer, but... it's very nice to meet you! Mami ここで会えたのはいい機会ね。 Our meeting you here is a good opportunity, isn't it? Mami Playerさん、 よかったら私たちと チームを組まない？ Player-san, If you like, won't you form a team with us? Mami ぜひ考えてみて。 You should certainly think it over. Quest 1-2 1-2 Before Madoka でもびっくりした。 What a surprise! Madoka まさか去年クラスメイトだった Playerちゃんが 魔法少女になってたなんて……！ To think Player-chan, my last year's classmate would become a Magical Girl...! Sayaka マミさんは他の魔法少女には 注意しろって言ってたけど、 Mami-san said to be careful of other Magical Girls, Sayaka Playerみたいな子 だったら、あたしは大歓迎だね！ But for a girl like you, Player, I'll give you a warm welcome! Madoka 実はワルプルギスの夜っていう、 すっごく強い魔女がもうすぐこの街に 現れるんで、 To be honest, a really strong witch called Walpurgis Night will soon appear in this town, Madoka 他の魔法少女たちが大勢集まってるん だって。 So lots of other Magical Girls are gathering here. Madoka どんな子たちなのかな？ その子たちとも友達になれたら いいなぁ……。 I wonder what the other girls are like. It would be great to make friends with them... Madoka ね、Playerちゃんも そう思うでしょ？ Don't you think so too, Player-chan? Mami （……３人とも聞いて。 　魔女の反応を見つけたわ） (...Listen up you three. I detected the response of a witch.) Mami （……間違いなくこの近くに結界が 　ある。すぐ来てちょうだい） (...The barrier must be close by. Come right away.) 1-2 After Madoka 結局、魔女はいませんでしたね……。 In the end, the witch wasn't there... Mami 私たちに気付いて逃げたようね。 かなり用心深い相手みたい……。 It seems it noticed us and fled. It must be quite a cautious opponent.... Mami 次に見つけた時はもっと慎重に 行動しなくちゃね。 We have to be more careful the next time we find it. Sayaka 次にって……すぐに追いかけなくても いいの、マミさん？！ The next time? Don't we have to chase after it right away, Mami-san? Mami 魔女は普段から私たちの裏をかくため に何度も居場所を変えるわ。 Witches normally change spots many times to outsmart us. Mami それに逃げた直後は隠れるのに必死で 見つけるのは難しいの。 And straight after they run they're desperate to hide so finding them will be difficult. Mami 早く見つけるに越したことはないけど 今日のところはひとまず大丈夫だと 思う。 It would be best to find it quickly, but I think it should be safe for today. Mami 私たちも今夜は解散して、 明日に備えましょ。 Let's also call it a day and prepare for it for tomorrow. Quest 1-3 1-3 Before Sayaka マミさんはああ言ってたけど、 やっぱ心配だよね。 Even with what Mami-san said, I'm still worried. Sayaka 魔女はまわりに不幸や災いを 撒き散らすって話だし……。 Saying the witch is spreading unhappiness and catastrophe around here... Madoka うん、早く見つけて､犠牲になる人が 出ないようにしないと……。 Yes, we have to find it quickly and make sure nobody will be sacrificed... Madoka でないと何の為に魔法少女に なったのか分からないもんね。 Otherwise, I don't know why we became Magical Girls. Madoka Playerちゃんも そう思うでしょ？ Don't you think so too, Player-chan? Kyubey （頼もしいね３人とも。 　そんな君たちに朗報だ。 　魔女の結界を見つけた。） (You three are certainly promising. Here's some good news for people like you. I found the witch's barrier.) Kyubey （マミにも知らせたから、 　君たちもすぐに来てほしい） (I've told Mami about it too, so I want you to come quickly.) Madoka キュゥべえ？ ……分かった、すぐ行く！ Kyubey? ...OK. We'll go right away! Madoka さやかちゃん、 Playerちゃん、 行こ！！ Sayaka-chan, Player-chan, let's go! 1-3 After Kyubey 魔女ではなく使い魔の結界だった ようだね。僕の勘違いだ。 It seems it was a familiar's barrier, not a witch's. My mistake. Mami あそこまで成長した使い魔なら 魔女と間違えても仕方ないわ。 With a familiar that's grown that much, it can't be helped mistaking it for a witch. Mami 魔女になる直前に倒せたんですもの。 それで良しとしましょ。 We managed to get it right before it turned into a witch. I suppose that's good enough. Madoka でも使い魔ということは…… それを産んだ魔女がまだいるってこと ですよね？　早く何とかしないと…… But if it was a familiar... That means the witch that gave birth to it is still around, right? We need to do something quickly... Mami このまま追いかけっこをしていたら、 被害が出てしまうかもしれないし…… 何か作戦を考える必要があるわね。 If we were to chase after it now, we may end up getting hurt... We need to think of some sort of plan. Madoka うーん、 何かいい方法があるといいんだけど… Hmm, It would be great if there was something we could do... Quest 1-4 1-4 Before Madoka （マミさんマミさん！ 　聞いて下さい！！） (Mami-san, Mami-san! Please listen to this!!) Mami （鹿目さん、ちゃんとテレパシーは 　通じてるから落ち着いて。 　どうしたの？まずいことでも―） (Kaname-san, calm down so the telepathy goes through properly. What's the matter? Did something bad-) Sayaka （違うんですマミさん、 　あたし、凄い作戦を 　思いついちゃったんです！） (That's not it, Mami-san, I came up with a great plan!) Sayaka （花をむしっちゃえば 　いいんですよ！） (All we need to do is pluck flowers!) Sayaka （あの魔女は、 　バラを育ててるでしょ？） (That witch is growing roses right?) Sayaka （だからその大切なバラを 　摘んじゃえば、怒って姿を 　現すんじゃないかって！） (So if we pluck its precious roses, it'll get mad and show itself, won't it?) Mami （そ、それは思いつかなかったわ。 　上手くいくかは分からないけど、 　……一度試してみてもいいかもね） (I-I didn't think of that. I'm not sure if it will work, but it might be worth a shot) 1-4 After Sayaka さぁこれでどうだ？！ 出て来い魔女め！！ How do you like that?! Come out you damn witch!! Madoka ……なにも、起こらないね？ ...Nothing's happening? ？？？ （魔女の結界を見つけた。 　先日話に出た奴に間違いないと 　思う） I found the witch's barrier. I'm certain it's the one we were talking about the other day. ？？？ （約束通り一緒にやりましょう。 　佐倉杏子と一緒に入り口で待つわ） As promised, we'll do it together. I'll be waiting along with Sakura Kyouko at the entrance. Sayaka 今のは転校生？　魔女が別の場所に いるってことは……あたしの作戦、 大失敗ってこと？！　トホホ……。 Was that the transfer student? If the witch is at another place... That means my plan was a complete failure?! Boo-hoo... Kyubey 願望を多大に加味した作戦の成功率は 極めて低いものだよ。さあ、この事は 教訓にして、いまは魔女退治だよ。 Plans that depend heavily on desires have an extremely low success rate. Consider that a lesson - for now, it's time to exterminate the witch. Quest 1-5 1-5 Before Madoka 紹介するね Playerちゃん。 I'll introduce you, Player-chan. Madoka こちらは佐倉杏子ちゃんと 暁美ほむらちゃん、 ２人ともとぉっても強いんだよ！ This is Sakura Kyouko-chan and Akemi Homura-chan, They're both really strong! Kyouko ふ～ん……アンタが新入りか。 ま、せいぜいあたしの足を引っ張ら ないように気をつけるこった。 Hmm... so you're the newcomer? Well, just try to make sure that you don't get in my way as much as possible. Kyouko よぅし、ついてきな新米ども！ Alright, let's get going, newbie! Homura あなたは……。 You're... Madoka どうしたのほむらちゃん？もしかして Playerちゃんのこと、 知ってるの？ What's the matter Homura-chan? Could it be, you know Player-chan? Homura ……いいえ、別に。それよりも 早く行きましょう。急がないと、 佐倉杏子に置いていかれるわ。 ...No, not really. More importantly, let's hurry up. If we don't, Sakura Kyouko will leave us behind. 1-5 After Madoka やった……魔女をやっつけたよ、 さやかちゃん！ Playerちゃん！ Hooray... we beat the witch Sayaka-chan! Player-chan! Sayaka やった！ やったよ、あたしたち！！ Hooray! We did it!! Kyouko やれやれ、トーシロは初々しくって 見てらんねぇや。 Geez, the novices are so fresh, I can't watch. Kyouko 仕方ねぇ、 ヒヨッコの羽が生えそろうまで もうちょっと付き合ってやるか。 It can't be helped. I'll keep you greenhorns company until you've grown some wings. Mami そうだ…いい機会だから Playerさんに グリーフシードについて説明するわ。 That's right... I'll take this opportunity to tell you about Grief Seeds, Player-san. Mami グリーフシードというのは、 魔女を倒すと落とすことがある 貴重な品よ。 Grief Seeds are a precious item that witches sometimes drop when you defeat them. Mami これにはソウルジェムに溜まった 穢れを吸収して、浄化する働きが あるの。 They have the ability to absorb and clean the impurities that build up in your soul gem. Mami とても大切なことだから 憶えておいてね。 This is very important, so don't forget it, OK?
