Plot Overview

Madoka Kaname is an eighth-grader who leads a peaceful, fun-filled life as a student, surrounded by her beloved family and best friends. One day, a transfer student named Homura Akemi arrives in Madoka's class. Homura is a dark-haired girl, and soon after meeting Madoka for the first time, she goes on to issue Madoka a strange warning. Madoka also meets Kyubey, a mysterious looking creature who tempts her by saying, "I'll make any of your wishes come true. So make a contract with me and become a Magical Girl!" Madoka feels that there is nothing special about her, so she decides to take up Kyubey's offer so she can help people... Who are the people she meets that will change her destiny, and what is the answer she finds?[2]

Notable differences from the original anime

General

In the movie and each following appearance, Sayaka Miki dons a hair clip in the shape of fortissimo when she is in her Magical Girl form. In music, a fortissimo indicates that the piece should be played very loudly.

Kyoko has more variety of food in each scene she is in. She is seen eating green tea and strawberry pocky in addition to her usual chocolate variety. She is also seen eating a sandwich cookie, a bear pastry, and an orange popsicle.

A new score by Yuki Kajiura was introduced, replacing much of the original music. Additionally, a vocal version of Credens justitiam, Mirai, is used as the ending theme.

Movie specific

Oktavia von Seckendorff's barrier has new runes that read "Desiderantes Affectibus". Summis desiderantes affectibus (Latin: "Desiring with supreme ardor") was a papal bull issued by Pope Innocent VIII on December 5, 1484. The bull was written in response to the request of Dominican Inquisitor Heinrich Kramer for explicit authority to prosecute witchcraft in Germany, after he was refused assistance by the local ecclesiastical authorities. The bull recognized the existence of witches. The bull, which synthesized the spiritual and the secular crimes of witchcraft, is often viewed as opening the door for the witch hunts of the early modern period.

When Kyoko's soul gem explodes, there's a hidden frame of the "and I'm home" picture.
