Official Info

  • Doctors, assistants, and nurses of Mitakihara Town's main hospital.
  • The hospital staff are informative and helpful, and they do their best.
  • Tomoko Nakamura and Rumi Ookubo played female nurses in Episode 4 but it is uncertain which plays which. Ookubo played the right nurse in the right figure in Episode 6. Therefore, Nakamura may play the left nurse.

Speculations and Observations

  • Four men who look like the hospital staff appeared in Episode 12 as judges of Kamijou's performance.
    • Since the Production Note mentions Kyousuke being a guitarist before the time loops began, one speculative theory is that someone wished for the violin to have been universally popular in Mitakihara, causing the hospital staff in all subsequent time loops to choose violin judging as a hobby.

Hosts

Hosts

Seiyū Nobuo Tobita (Host A)
Shinichiro Miki (Host B)
Age ?
  • The conversation between the hosts (ホスト) is based on one that Gen Urobuchi overheard on a train in real life.
  • Urobuchi refused to clarify whether Sayaka killed the hosts. Shinbo declared that she did not do so in the anime, but Hanokage depicted her as explicitly having done so in the original manga adaptation. This was altered in the updated remastered version.
  • One of the hosts calls the other "Shou-san" (in the English dub, Shou is erroneously referred to as a third man not present in the scene). Shou is apparently skilled at dumping girlfriends.
  • As they are both referred to as "hosts", it is unclear if they are intended to have the same job (working at a host club) as Inui. As Magia Record established that "Shou" gets jealous (presumably under the belief that Inui gets too attached to her customers) and believes she was worth discarding if her success would fade over time as she aged, it would seem odd that "Shou" would believe that if he worked in the same career field.

Speculation

From information given here, it is possible than "Shou-san" is one of the men that dated Kazuko, Madoka's teacher.

Background Extras

  • On the day Homura returns to school, the 25th of either March or May, the weather is warm and sunny enough for the girls to feel comfortable outside in their uniforms, but cool enough that people in the mall after school were wearing long sleeves, jackets, and coats. Cafe patrons in episode 2 also had long sleeves.
  • In episode 5, people on the street are wearing coats, hats, scarves, and mittens. This scene takes place several days before the 12th of the month, in either April or June.
  • In episode 11, everyone in the shelter has long sleeves, but they don't have heavy coats, suggesting warm weather. Evacuation started at 7:30AM. They may have worn long sleeves due to the storm.
