Doppel Description

PENNEN NOLDE (Pennen Nolde)

The Doppel of daydreaming.
Its form is a Match Seller.
The master of this emotion desires more power even after becoming a Magical Girl, in order to achieve more wishes. This Doppel divides its master's lifespan up into matches, and grants a "What if" wish whenever a match is lit. When the Doppel runs out of matches, the master's life is over. It is very powerful, but similar to the Doppel of Dying Wishes, it mustn't be abused, for it sacrifices one's own lifespan.

白昼夢のドッペル。
その姿は、マッチ売り。
この感情の主は魔法少女になった後もさらなる願いを成就するためちからを欲する。このドッペルは主の寿命を切り分けたマッチを持ち、ひとたび擦って灯りをともせばあらゆる"もしも"が叶うという。マッチの残り本数が主の寿命であり、使い切ることは命の終わりを意味する。強力なドッペルだが、遺言のドッペル同様に自身の寿命を犠牲にするため乱用は禁物。

Side Story

Touka Satomi's Side Story

The side story begins with a retelling of Magius' initial influence on Kamihama: Namely, the fact Kyubey can no longer enter it thanks to the help of a force field surrounding the entire area. Touka, Nemu, Alina and Mifuyu discusss the recent arrival of the Amane Sisters into the team, and realize that merely 6 members is far from sufficient to gather enough energy to lead their project to fruition.

This is when Alina suggests that Mifuyu be in charge of the recruitment, due to her status as veteran. However, Mifuyu refuses: If she begins recruiting girls inside of Kamihama, there may be confusion about her sudden reappearance in the Western sections, and Yachiyo might find her; If she begins looking outside of the city, nobody will listen to her since she's a stranger outside of Kamihama - which loops them back to the beginning of their problem. Mifuyu suddenly sneezes. She explains that she's been feeling a little sick since she's moved out of her parents' home - something she managed to accomplish thanks to grants bestowed from Touka. The latter asks if she can't just heal herself up with magic, since she's a Magical Girl. Mifuyu says she prefers staying sick, as this is one of the few human things left about herself.


The following day, the three Magius are reunited, but Mifuyu is conspicuously absent. They begin further discussing the problem of recruiting more members. Nemu brings up the harshness of Magical Girls' fate, and the moral implications of the means that they use to attain their goals. Touka mentions that if they also begin recruiting members that don't know about the Witch system, they'll look like a strange cult, further limiting their potential magical girl options.

Touka mentions a discrepancy between supply and demand, which earns her a snarky quip from Nemu. Alina cuts them short before the two can argue further, then directs them back on topic. Touka explains that Mifuyu should take care of recruitment anyways, but in the Eastern wards instead, where she is less known. She then explains that they can extend their potential magical girl pool to girls who simply have a hard time fighting witches. Touka begins praising herself from her genius, but Nemu remarks that putting it in a "come with us if you want to be saved" manner is just making them sound like a cult anyways. As Touka begins reasoning in raw statistics, Nemu laments about the fact it's just the six of them to recruit people around Kamihama.

Alina decides to lead the conversation anyways, focusing on how to enhance the force field and discussing Nemu's rumor creation. Suddenly, Alina receives a message from Mifuyu, informing them that her cold's gotten worse and that she won't be present for today's meeting. Touka is reminded of her illness-induced past, and chastises Mifuyu for not using her magic to heal herself. As Alina is about to send Mifuyu a message back to inform her that she can stay home, Nemu gets the idea of using radio waves to communicate their message in the most efficient way possible such as using e-mail, phone messages, etc. Touka praises Nemu for the idea, and decides to give it a test run.


Later on, Touka sneaks in Mifuyu's living quarters. She finds her asleep and with dinner bought from the convenience store. As Mifuyu groans in discomfort in her sleep, however, Touka decides to try and help her, bringing back a cold, humid towel to apply to her forehead. Touka is surprised that she's now caring for someone, but Mifuyu wakes up shortly after. Mifuyu offers Touka tea despite the former's sickness, but Touka refuses, demanding that she rest up. However, since Mifuyu's awake, Touka decides to use Mifuyu as a guinea pig for the transmission test run, and messages back Nemu to inform her of the situation and launch the experiment. Soon after, Mifuyu begins hearing singing, which makes the experiment a success.

The song is revealed to be from back when Touka was hospitalized; a nurse would sing it to her often to help her get better. She decided to use this specific song knowing Mifuyu's sickness, in hopes that this'd help her feel better, to which Mifuyu agrees. She quickly deduces that the experiment is actually meant to help with the recruitment of Magical Girls using radio waves. Having found that witches and similar creatures only magical girls can see are tuned to a specific frequency, Touka decided to use this specific wavelength to send a message only magical girls can hear within and beyond Kamihama. Mifuyu praises Touka, and then finds renewed vigor, telling Touka she should be right back on her feet the following day; but Touka asks her not to overwork herself.


Back in the Magius' HQ, with Mifuyu now present, the other Magius have to withstand an irrational bout of anger from Touka. It's revealed that this scene is back from where the Rumor of the Seance Shrine was defeated, and Yachiyo came out of it unscathed. Mifuyu acknowledges the presence of a new ally by Yachiyo's side now, and that they should be more careful. While Nemu suggests creating more rumors, Alina suggests using witches instead due to the similarity between doppels and witches; However, Mifuyu claims that method is too harsh, but Alina retorts that spreading awareness of the truth is their best option. Touka begins explaining that they should create rumors frightening enough to inflict trauma on their victims, which shocks Mifuyu and prompts her to scold Touka, explaining that they will not sacrifice people for the sake of their goals and that as long as Magical Girls aren't in danger of becoming witches, they can take their time.

Nemu, however, sympathizes with Touka's situation, reminding Mifuyu that she uses her own life force to create rumors and that using it on low-quality ones would be a waste. Alina agrees, claiming she cannot turn down an offer to create beautiful art. Mifuyu reiterates her desire not to cause more sacrifices than necessary, but Touka slaps her and goes away.

Mifuyu's objections are putting a stop on Magius' plans, as if they stall out too long, people might eventually figure out what rumors are, and the Feathers may be also caught and spill the beans. Nemu admits, however, that Mifuyu, despite her stalling, has a point, as if they lost sight of their moral standing, their plans would fall into disarray quickly as the Feathers are still people, and might eventually sense danger and defect from the Magius altogether. As a result, Mifuyu represents a tremendous weight in the Magius thanks to her popularity, and should she leave herself, the organization may collapse. A frustrated Touka eventually decides to go cool down elsewhere, as she believes she's not thinking clearly. Nemu expresses her relief over Touka noticing, which upsets the latter, who asks her why she hadn't told her directly in the first place if she knew; to which Nemu replies it'd only have made her angrier.

Back in her room, Touka ponders what she could possibly do to help Mifuyu understand. She compares the magical girl system to a dog-eat-dog world and a "survival of the fittest", and says she's ready to do anything to survive as well.


The next day, in Saint Lilliana Academy, Touka is tasked to do group work, which bores her immensely. A younger classmate asks her to explain division to her, but Touka berates her for failing to grasp a concept so simple to her. The teacher tries to explain Touka that this girl only started studying division, but Touka retorts by saying she knew about it far before her age. She then adds that while people can't grasp concepts as easily as she can, she believes she's clever enough to explain them, which is indirect praise directed at Touka. She finally settles on teaching the girl how to do division.

As the lesson continues, Touka tries explaining the girl about fractions, but the teacher informs her it's currently outside of the program. She settles on remainders instead, and the girl comments about how said remainder looks lonely, separated from the rest of the numbers, which confuses Touka. While trying to keep her calm, Touka tells the girl how numbers don't have feelings and that it should be fine, but the girl insists that all numbers should get along, and that as group leader, Touka should have a way to figure this out. Touka snaps at this, and angrily reiterates that numbers are merely concepts and that there is no other thing to do with them but to write that down as intended. The girl, however, begins crying, and Touka realizes she's made a mistake.

As the teacher drags her aside and begins scolding her, Touka reiterates that getting rid of the remainder is the only way to have the answer. This statement, however, makes something click in Touka's mind. She decides she's had enough of being patient, and will tell that to Mifuyu once she sees her again.

With a renewed resolve and an unusually foul mood, Touka meets again with Nemu to tell her about her plans to use the radio frequencies to drag in more witches in Kamihama and use more dangerous rumors, as it is the most cost-efficient solution they have before her. Nemu states that Mifuyu won't be pleased with that outcome, but Touka says that as the genius, she gets to decide whatever she wants. Mifuyu incidentally arrives right after, and Touka explains her point of view to her once and for all. She claims that it's necessary for now, in order to make a better future.


The next part is set in the past, during Touka's hospitalization with Nemu and Ui, with Touka playing a video game against Iroha, and Iroha losing. Ui states that Iroha isn't very good at games, with Iroha retorting that she's better at turn-based board games like shogi. Iroha, however, says she's glad to get all three of them to play games together, and Touka explains she got this game from one of her dad's acquaintances who knew about her love for space. Most of the games Touka are gifted have educational content, which Nemu remarks on; However, Touka claims she already knows all of that. While Iroha praises Touka for her knowledge, Ui remarks it might have nothing to do at all with being good at games.

Iroha then orders all three girls to stop the videogames and do their homework. Iroha remarks the huge break between classes, and asks if that means they have a lot of homework. Ui replies that they only have one big assignment to do: Self-study. Nemu explains that they have to compile information on a hobby or interest, then make a presentation about that, and those without a hobby can look things up online. Ui asks what Iroha would present, and she answers that she'd talk about cooking and baking, as these are the two topics she knows best. Iroha returns the question, and Ui answers that she's going to look into what people sing in school choirs, while Nemu will do her part on her favorite books, particularly philosophical children's stories.

Iroha guesses that Touka will do her presentation about space, but guesses that she'll do more a full-blown class than a simple presentation; However, she greatly upsets Touka by accident. Iroha quickly apologizes, but Touka says that it's not her fault, but rather something else that happened.

It's explained in another anterior scene that Touka decided against doing her project about space, and rather focus on quantum computers. Ui is a little disappointed, being eager to watch Touka talk about space. The teacher calls Touka, and asks her as well if she'll do something on space. She believes that even if the students might not understand the tricky parts, that she'll do a good job at teaching them and making them interested about the topic. However, Touka refuses, unwilling to share her knowledge as she's worked hard to gather it.

Back in the hospital, Iroha guesses that people would still like to hear Touka talk about space, which disappoints the latter as she realizes everyone is in favor of her talking about space. She still expresses refusal over teaching people about this, as she claims she's already had too much stolen from her. She tearfully explains that she understands she's bedridden for the rest of her life, and the hospital doesn't allow her to leave because the world is better outside, and that if she experiences it firsthand, she'll never want to come back.


All that Touka knows of the world is the Satomi Medical Center. She only gets her knowledge of the outside world through internet. She reminisces her father, who never misses a chance to remind her how proud he is of her and her ability to learn so quickly. He informs that Touka should use her smarts to help the rest of the community around her. Touka is worried at the notion of "giving back", but her father tells her that he'll gift her anything she wants if she complies. She asks about living under the same roof as her parents, about finally being free. However, her father cannot gift her that, as she's still very sick and needs to remain at the hospital for further treatment. Touka therefore decides to never give back anything to anyone, as anything she ever gave out to people, she was never given anything back in return.

Touka muses about outer space, the only world that ever gave her anything. She admired the cosmos for its limitless freedom and its endless ability to be discovered over and over. She got to learn things only she knew, which is why outer space is so important to her. Suddenly, she feels a sharp pain in her back which immobilizes her.

Later on, a sleeping Touka is awoken by the same lullaby she used to transmit the radio waves in the present. It's revealed that the 'nurse' who used to sing this song to her is no one other than Iroha herself. Touka asks what Iroha is doing here, and Iroha offers her a present, which is an apple pie she baked herself. Iroha was feeling bad after offending Touka the other day, which is why she made that apple pie for her. Touka laments about how she cannot eat it, but Iroha reassures her that she obtained her father's guidance to prepare it without any ingredient that she cannot eat. Touka taste-tests it, and finds that the pie is incredibly delicious.

Iroha explains that she could teach Touka little thing after little thing to make her happy like this. In the same fashion, she requests that Touka share her knowledge about outer space one more time, to make them just as happy. Iroha tries the pie out, and is surprised at the taste herself. Touka agrees.


The next day, Touka arrives late to class. However, she's brought a lot of classroom materials for everyone. If they want to learn about space, she claims that she should start with constellations first. She then tells Ui that her older sister Iroha is much like the Beta Pegasi. However, she doesn't give Ui an explanation, telling Ui to go look it up herself.

Costume Stories

Touka Satomi's Costume Stories

In Hotel Fendt Hope, Touka tells Nemu that she wants to host some events at their upcoming beach trip, taking place on her family’s private property. Nemu senses a hidden scheme under the guise of these lighthearted plans, but Touka ignores her worrying. Despite the suspicion, Nemu agrees to help Touka with organizing a swimming competition, and a sailing event. The process went by quickly and smoothly, but Nemu is concerned about how well they would handle these activities, considering that they just got out of the hospital. Touka laughs it off, and reveals that she will be taking private swimming lessons leading up to the trip, personal trainer included. She excitedly calculates that she will master basic swimming after ten sessions. When the day of the beach trip finally arrives, Nemu finds Touka bringing over a bunch of equipment, and assumes that her previous calculations were off. Touka firmly denies this, stating that although she has practiced swimming, she realized that she is a little afraid of the water. As an alternative plan, she resorts to playing with the Amane twins, as in attacking them with relentless splashing.

Some time after being admitted to the hospital, Touka excitedly shows off her new gown that she begged her father to buy to Nemu and Ui. While Nemu compares it to a lantern, Ui says that she would like to have one like it. Touka, who wanted to be more fashionable during her stay, was too ecstatic to sit still, and boldly made a sudden escape, despite her roommates’ warnings. In the hospital hallways, Touka shows off her gown to two other patients around her age. The girls say that she looks like a storybook princess, and are a bit envious of her wealthy family. Soon however, the time for visiting hours fast approaches. Having forgotten about this, Touka hastily runs back to her room, but on the way, she slips and tears the hem on her skirt. When she returns in a nick in time, she sulks over her damaged dress while Nemu and Ui watch in concern. Thankfully, Iroha arrives to visit the trio, and soon realizes that something was wrong. After getting an explanation on why Touka was upset, and now crying, Iroha offers to sew the hem back together. A few minutes later, she’s finished, and the three marvel over how the stitching is almost invisible. In awe, Nemu asks Iroha if she can use magic, but this was before any of them became Magical Girls. Touka graciously thanks Iroha, and acknowledges that the gown is now even more special because of her, and vows to cherish it for the rest of her life.

Triggered by a strong desire, these Magical Girls have transformed into a Winter Night motif. They’re investigating the strange phenomenon that has happened to them while touring throughout Christmas by means of a mysterious diary. While they’d never admit it, they rather like the way they look.

Side Story

Touka & Nemu's (Winter Night) Side Story

This story occurs two years before the events of Arc 1, while Touka, Nemu, and Ui are still in the hospital. One day, as winter rolls around, the girls wrap up their school day in the hospital, with Touka eager to be free of school, given how boring she finds it. Before they can decide what they should play, the teacher has a special announcement: the Satomi Medical Center's school program will be hosting a Christmas party this year!

All the students, save Touka and Nemu, are thrilled. Touka complains that Christmas is supposed to be a religious festival; there's no point in them celebrating it. For their purposes, though, the teacher explains it's just an excuse for everyone to have a fun day together. She wants the class to work together to arrange the party and choosing what activities they want to do, and arranges for an in-class discussion next week.

In talking about it, Ui discovers Touka and Nemu have never attended a Christmas party. That just makes Ui excited for the three of them to celebrate their first Christmas party together. Instead of focusing on the party, though, Touka decides that she and Ui will play a card game together, while Nemu stakes her claim on her and Ui reading a book together. They both lock horns, only giving in when Ui says she actually wants to do something with all three of them together, meaning Touka and Nemu both lose the bout. Right at the moment Touka and Nemu start bickering again, Iroha makes a surprise visit to the trio while they're leaving class, and chuckles over how they're fighting over Ui once more - but notes that they've also grown quite a lot from when they all first met.

Iroha explains that when Ui first transferred to the hospital and met Touka and Nemu, she was worried Ui wouldn't be able to befriend them. Nemu, for one, was deeply withdrawn, while Touka snapped about operating on an entirely different level above the others. At this, Ui realizes out loud that Touka and Nemu have become good friends - see, before, they refused to speak to each other at all, but now, they can freely state whatever's on their mind. And good friends can talk about all kinds of things together, no? Nemu and Touka vehemently object to this notion, and refuse to admit they've changed.

That is, until Ui points out that change isn't such a bad thing. For example, Ui herself used to be afraid of looking under the bed, but Nemu wrote a story for her called "Kagetaro Under the Bed," which helped Ui overcome her fear. Meanwhile, Ui used to hate doing tests and taking medicine, but Touka helped her with school and explained why the medicine was important, which makes Ui much more comfortable and confident now. She's grateful that she can spend time with them every day, and that she's grown up so much thanks to the two of them. Put like that, Touka and Nemu decide Ui is right.

The four girls head over to Ui's room, where Iroha and Ui's mom awaits, with Touka and Nemu bickering every step of the way, of course. After greeting them all and seeing how enervated Touka and Nemu are, Iroha and her mom excuse themselves for a short meeting with Ui's doctor to let the trio hang out by themselves for a bit. Touka and Nemu argue once more over who gets to play with Ui, but Ui defuses the situation by proposing an activity: planning out the Christmas party!

Touka is game, at least once Ui talks about how she's sure Touka can come up with a genius idea for the event, while Nemu grows cold. Ui is sure that if Nemu talks about what she wants to do, it would make everyone in class so happy, but Nemu's classmates are the dead last thing she cares about. Ui apologizes for upsetting Nemu, but really wants the three of them to have a fun time together at the party...and Nemu says she'll do it, as long as it's just her and Ui brainstorming together. By this time, Iroha and her mom return...only to see the argument is still going on.

The next morning, the girls go to class. Ui and the other students are excited for the party. Touka and Nemu hang out in the back, with Touka bitterly whining about how she doesn't get why everyone's celebrating Christmas (Nemu asks why Touka is telling her this; it's because Nemu is the only one sitting next to her). Touka is certain that hanging out with her will be way more fun for Ui than a Christmas party. Nemu, fed up with Touka's ego, throws down a challenge, and they agree on the terms: They'll both come up with their own plans for the party and propose them the class meeting next week. Ui will pick the one she likes the most, and the winner gets the right to have Ui to herself all day. The duo goes for it, with Touka's voiced line expressing how confident she is that her plans will be the big winner.

Part 2 brings us to the day of the in-class meeting. The teacher will serve as moderator, and the kids will pop in with their ideas. Touka immediately takes the floor, laying out her plan, much to Ui's excitement: Santa Claus himself will be the party's special guest, and they'll have extravagant decorations and a professional band performing. The central event will be "The King's Game," where one student is chosen as king, and the rest of the students will work together to fulfill his or her every desire. And that student will be none other than Touka herself, meaning everyone will have to do whatever she says!

That doesn't go over well, allowing Nemu to take over; Ui is over the moon that Nemu came up with a plan, too. Nemu's idea is to write a sequel to that short story Ui loved so much about the monster Kagetaro, which will be read aloud at the party...by Ui. Ui is flattered, but hesitant - the party is for everyone's enjoyment, so she proposes they have all the students take a turn reading it instead. Nemu doesn't like this...and Touka hates the whole dang thing, and makes this known loud and clear. She and Nemu get into a row, and demand Ui pick the winner immediately, which baffles Ui - she certainly hadn't been informed of any such contest!

At this point, the teacher intervenes, and Ui takes the opportunity to have everyone else in class take a turn presenting their plans. They add ideas like making Christmas cards for each other, or Ui's idea to sing Christmas carols. Ui loves all of these plans, which befuddles Touka and Nemu, but they insist on taking over again, certain they can incorporate these ideas into their plans. As much as Ui appreciates the gesture, she asks what they, personally, would like to do at the party, independent of Ui's own desires. They say they don't care - Christmas doesn't matter to them.

This hurts Ui; she just wants to celebrate Christmas with everyone, but Touka and Nemu refuse to celebrate it with each other. The teacher agrees that while Touka and Nemu's plans had a lot of thought put into them, they ought to be reconsidered, which offends them both to their core. Touka yells that she's not attending the Christmas party and storms out of class, while Nemu breaks down and flees as well. While Ui wants to go after them, the teacher holds her back - they still have class, and it seems like she knows the duo needs some space, anyway, but sends for a nurse to check up on them.

After class, Touka's dad comes to check on her, and in between tears, she complains how no one understands her ideas, and demands he cancel the party. Meanwhile, Ui slips into Nemu's room, trying to coax her into a game, but Nemu remains silent and burrowed under her sheets. Touka, having composed herself, traipses into Nemu's room to drag Ui out for a game together, dismissing Ui's concerns about the party. Touka can't resist sniping at Nemu, saying geniuses like her don't have the luxury of moping around in bed all day, which finally gets Nemu to crawl out and fire back, calling Touka a heartless brat. Ui gets distressed as the argument reaches a fever pitch, with Touka smashing some of Nemu's belongings while Nemu's insults cut to the core, making Ui burst into tears.

The fight stops at once. Touka and Nemu panic but dry Ui's tears and check on her. Ui says her chest hurts, which makes the duo panic that Ui is having a medical emergency, but Ui says it's not anything like that - it's heartbreak. Ui know she's being selfish in wanting Nemu and Touka to participate in the party, despite their wishes. But she's been hospitalized for much of her life, and has never once gotten to celebrate Christmas with her friends or family. So just this once, she wants to celebrate Christmas with her two best friends, and implores them to consider it just one more time, even if they ultimately say no. With how awkward the atmosphere is now, Ui apologizes and goes back to her room, leaving Touka and Nemu to digest what happened. In her voiced line, Nemu remarks she had no idea what to do in that moment.

In part three, we open with Touka sneaking around in the hospital in the dead of the night. She has a letter with her - a simple apology note to Ui (even though apologizing comes so unnaturally to her) - that she plans to leave at Ui's bedside. Along the way, she bumps straight into Nemu, too. They snap at each other, but realize they're both here to apologize to Ui. Nemu admits she believed she understood Ui like the back of her hand, but the Christmas party debacle reveals the contrary - she was a fool for believing so. Touka agrees with that assessment, but they both know how to fix it: They will attend the Christmas party, and offer a plan that will truly make Ui and their classmates happy.

Ui wakes up to two unsigned apology notes by her bed - she, of course, knows exactly who wrote each. In a sudden panic, though, she checks under her bed, worried that they saw what she had hidden under there...but her secret's safe, and she smiles once more.

In class, Ui is ready to just forget about the party and their incident the other day, but Touka and Nemu ask the class to be given another chance to present their joint idea. It's one that incorporates everyone's desires - after opening remarks from the director, Nemu will host a puppet show using the classmates' favorite stuffed animals to tell the story of "Kagetaro Visits Santa Claus." Then the students will exchange Christmas cards they've created for each other, and sings carols together. Finally, Santa himself will come to give presents to all the kids. Everyone is all-in on the party, and the teacher decides they'll use one of their upcoming classes to have everyone make a single Christmas card (since making them for the entire class is a monumental task), which will be randomly given to another student. The kids are excited for the party, and Touka and Nemu pat themselves on the back.

On the big day, everything goes off without a hitch - Nemu's story is a huge success, and the card exchange goes great...except for Touka and Nemu receiving each other's cards, and Ui receiving her own! Touka and Nemu, with their eyes on receiving Ui's card, offer their own...but realize it'd be a losing game, since it'd mean Ui would get the "wrong" card. But before either of them cracks, another girl swaps cards with Ui, beating them both to the punch. Finally, it's time for Santa to make his debut...except it's not Santa: it's Touka's father!

He explains Santa was too busy to come today, but he did arrange for gifts from everyone's families. Nemu receives handmade winter socks from her mother, while Ui gets star-pattered pajamas. Touka pouts, but her dad makes it up to her by setting up a meeting with one of Santa's reindeers! ...Which Nemu notes to herself that it's obviously a guy in a reindeer suit, but Touka explains to Ui that since the reindeer clearly violates all known natural laws, it must therefore belong to Santa, which excites Ui. Nemu chuckles and decides not to leave them be.

After the party, Ui has one more thing she wants to do for them - she invites them both to her hospital room, sits them down, and presents her Christmas gifts for them. Ui has gotten Touka a beautful candle, while Nemu gets a hardcover copy of a book she's been wanting to read. Ui reveals she kept the gifts hidden under the bed, which gives Nemu mixed feelings - was Ui lying all this time about being scared of looking under there? No, Ui explains - she really was scared. But thanks to Nemu and Kagetaro, she grew the courage to be able to go underneath it; so if it weren't for Nemu, she wouldn't have had any place to hide her gifts. Nemu feels reassured and accepts her gift.

It turns out Touka and Nemu have presents of their own for Ui - a set of playing cards based on famous paintings, and a short adventure story starring Ui herself. Ui asks if Touka and Nemu got something for each other, and they banish the very thought. But before they start bickering again, they see how happy Ui is to be celebrating Christmas with them...and they hold back just this once with smiles on their faces.

Two years later, during the events of Christmas String, Touka and Nemu are reflecting on that Christmas. They cringe at their behavior back then, but recognize that they were good complements to each other, and that despite their differences, they sincerely enjoyed that year's Christmas. And despite the mess they've gotten themselves into...Nemu admits she enjoys this one as well. She's long assumed that every Christmas would be her last - a day like this was unimaginable to her for many years, and yet here they are. The fact that they're alive is a miracle.

And on that note...Nemu says if Ui wants another Christmas party this year, she'd be happy to help arrange it. Touka agrees, and they figure they should invite Iroha and Sakurako this time as well. Touka closes out the story with a voiced line admitting that having a day like this isn't so bad every now and then.

Other Appearances

In-game

Touka first appears in Iroha's flashbacks, where she, Ui Tamaki and Nemu Hiiragi are seen staying in the hospital. She seems to be friends with both of them, however she fights with Nemu a lot, making up shortly after.

Touka reappears in Chapter 6, confirming her status as one of the Magius. She tells the girls the truth about Soul Gems, Witches, and Doppels, overseeing the brainwashing of Tsuruno, Felicia and Sana as part of their forced induction into the Wings of Magius. She giggles as Iroha begs her to let Tsuruno, Sana and Felicia go, and taunts her as she finds the idea preposterous.

She is subsequently present in Chapter 7, during the raid on Chelation Land as Iroha and her allies attempt to save Tsuruno and stop the Rumor from consuming large amounts of the city's human populace, as it was intended by the Magius to do.

In the following chapters, Touka continues her role as a villain, working with her fellow Magius to further their plan, as Iroha and her allies try to stop them.

By Chapter 10, Touka has realized that Eve is in fact Ui and helps Iroha and the others to rescue Ui and stop Eve from destroying the city. She then has the Rumor of the 10,000 year Sakura act as an impartial judge for her and Nemu so they can stand trial for their crimes. They are sentenced to never be allowed to transform into magical girls again upon penalty of death. Though she still believes in Magical Girl supremacy, she declines working with Neo Magius because it would sadden Ui and Iroha.

Powers and abilities

Warning, this section contains spoilers.

Due to her wish to take the power to [convert] from Kyubey, Touka has the magical power of Energy Conversion, using it to access almost infinite amounts of magic without clouding her Soul Gem. She uses it by converting stagnant energy in the environment to magic that she uses instead from her Soul Gem, thus her Soul Gem never clouds no matter how much magic she uses. As a magical girl, she regularly beats everyone because her main magic ability essentially makes her Soul Gem never get corrupted.

Her weapon of choice is a parasol, which Touka uses to float around the battlefield and fires energy beams. In the anime, Touka can also use her parasol as a parachute of sorts.

Touka's Doppel Pennen Nolde, with the motif of a plague doctor, a Swallow and a match-selling girl. The master of this emotion desires more power even after becoming a Magical Girl, in order to achieve more wishes. This Doppel divides its master's lifespan up into matches, and grants a "What if" wish whenever a match is lit. When the Doppel runs out of matches, the master's life is over. It is very powerful, but similar to the Doppel of Dying Wishes, it mustn't be abused, for it sacrifices one's own lifespan. As a result of three people contracting to save Iroha, their Doppels have a similar appearance to Iroha’s, the target of rescue.

As punishment for her actions as one of the Magius, she's forced to put on a bracelet that prevents her from transforming upon penalty of death.

Etymology

  • The characters of her last name mean "village" (里) and "to see" (見) respectively.
  • The characters of her first name mean "light" (灯) and "flower" (花) respectively.

Trivia

  • Touka, Nemu and Alina form a prison theme in their outfits. Touka is the 'prison', or the daughter of a rich person who would own the prison. Befittingly, her power allows her to keep Magical Girls "trapped" as Magical Girls and never transforming into Witches, only releasing a Doppel instead of a Witch should the conditions be met.
  • Touka makes an appearance in the opening next to Mifuyu Azusa and Alina Gray, all three of whom are part of Wings of Magius.
  • Her doppel, Pennen Nolde, bears a striking resemblance to Iroha Tamaki's doppel Giovanna. The guidebook explains that this is because of Touka being inspired by Iroha to become a magical girl and wishing to save Iroha from the fate of magical girls.
  • In Magia Archive Vol. 2, her doppel's name is written incorrectly. Rather than it saying "Pennen Nolde" in runes (PENNEN NOLDE), it instead says "Totentanz" (TOTENTANZ), the name of Mitama's doppel.
