KyubeyHey, Oriko.
KyubeyI saw that Magical Girl prospect you were
talking about before.

seems to have talent enough. There's even
precedent for it already.
KyubeyI'll try and talk to her after checking her
out a bit more.
KyubeySo thank you, Oriko.
Oriko MikuniKyubey, I'm the one who should be
thanking you.
Oriko MikuniNot only for making my wish come true,
of course.
Oriko MikuniBut also for teaching me about Witches—
an irrational malevolent force existing
beyond the power of human intervention.
Oriko MikuniAnd for giving me the power to defeat them.
Oriko MikuniSo I'll save this world tormented by Witches.
Oriko MikuniRight now, this is my one and only goal.
Oriko MikuniI know I'll live up to your expectations
for me someday.
KyubeyThat's a relief to hear.

chosen after all.

Koito AsakoWalpurgisnacht is way stronger than
any other Witch.
Koito AsakoIf you don't stay focused, you'll be
dead meat.
Yuma ChitoseWas Oriko trying to do the right thing?
Koito Asako......
Koito AsakoWho can say?
Koito AsakoWe know how it all went down now,
but I'm still not sure.
Koito AsakoEven knowing the full story...
Koito Asako...about how Oriko wronged my sister...
Koito Asako...and was deceiving me...
Koito AsakoI couldn't tell you if she should be hated
or celebrated as a savior.
Yuma ChitoseLet's save this town, Koito.
Koito AsakoHuh? That's what we're here for, right?
Yuma ChitoseIt's not the same as saving the world...
Yuma Chitose...but it might give us a glimpse of how
Oriko felt.
Koito Asako......
Koito AsakoHaha. Perhaps it will.
Kyoko SakuraLet's do this!
(Narration) Koito AsakoThe prayers of Magical Girls are laden
with sorrow.
(Narration) Koito AsakoI wonder if someday I'll understand...
(Narration) Koito Asako...Oriko's prayers of sadness too...

Kirika KureLooks like you've got a visitor, Oriko.
Oriko MikuniWelcome.
Oriko MikuniOh!
Oriko MikuniMy, you certainly look different now.
Oriko MikuniThis whole time...
Oriko Mikuni...we've never had the chance to talk much.
Oriko MikuniSeeing you like this, I can only assume that
all is right in the world now.
Madoka Kaname......
Oriko MikuniI wish you wouldn't look at me like that.
Oriko MikuniI know I have made my fair share
of mistakes...
Oriko Mikuni...but as a result, I learned
what is most precious to me.
Oriko MikuniThere is something I wanted to say
to you.
Oriko MikuniPlease accept my apology...
Oriko Mikuni...and my gratitude.
