Events

• Day 1 - Tuesday, the 16th: Mabayu wakes up and goes to Homura's hospital room and apologizes for the last time loop. Homura reassures her that she gained valuable information for her time loop chart.
• Day 11 - Friday, the 26th: Similar to the last loop Sayaka has started working at the café.
• Day 14 - Monday, the 29th: Sayaka finds Kyosuke's hospital room empty. She meets his nurse, who tells her Kyosuke is in rehabilitation. Mabayu overhears and regrets not recognizing Kyosuke's name and realizes Sayaka would want to heal him. Kyubey appears and asks what she's doing, but she lies and says she's delivering something. Sayaka then realizes Mabayu can talk with Kyubey and he introduces himself to Madoka for a contract. Later, at the café, Sayaka is surprised Mabayu is a Magical Girl and Mabayu explains she doesn't remember her wish. Sayaka guesses Mabayu's wish might have been to ease her mother's suffering and Mabayu wonders if she erased her own memories.
• Day 15 - Tuesday, the 30th: Mabayu stalks Sayaka, who visits the hospital to see Kyosuke. Sayaka and Kyosuke discuss classical music and Kyosuke is frustrated by his condition and inability to play the violin. Sayaka spots Kyubey and Mabayu realizes Sayaka contracts for Kyosuke's sake. On the rooftop, Sayaka is about to make her contract when Mabayu stops her. Mabayu questions if Sayaka will heal Kyosuke's hand and Sayaka expresses her desire to restore the old Kyosuke who loved music. Mabayu shares her own painful memory of her mother and Kyubey interrupts them, reminding them it's Sayaka's choice. Sayaka makes a contract and becomes a Magical Girl.
  • That evening, Sayaka and Mabayu patrol together, Sayaka detects a Witch's magic and Mabayu reveals her ability to see the future. After a quick vision, Sayaka easily defeats the Witch, H.N. Elly.
• Day 18 - Friday, the 2nd: At the café, Mabayu asks about Kyosuke's recovery, and Sayaka says he's improving, able to play the violin again.
• Day 22 - Tuesday, the 6th: Mabayu secretly watches Hitomi and Sayaka at a café, where Hitomi reveals she's in love with Kyosuke. Hitomi promises to wait only one day before confessing, giving Sayaka a chance to act. Later, Mabayu realizes Sayaka's sorrow comes from the same secret rivalry as in the previous loop. She worries about how to help but hesitates to reveal she overheard their conversation. Sayaka eventually asks Mabayu to predict her future, and Mabayu agrees but warns that the future is fixed once she sees it. Sayaka chooses to take her fate into her own hands and is determined to confess to Kyosuke without regrets.
  • Later that night, Sayaka wrestles with her decision to call Kyosuke. Kyubey approaches her, and she questions him about the nature of a Magical Girl's body, confirming that they are essentially invincible, painless vessels as long as their Soul Gem is intact. This realization fills her with self-loathing, as she feels her heroic ideals have been corrupted.
  • Later, Mabayu and Sayaka face Elsa Maria in battle. Mabayu is unable to contact Homura and uses a borrowed bomb to save Sayaka.
• Day 23 - Wednesday, the 7th: Mabayu watches Madoka and Hitomi as they walk to school while Sayaka is absent. Hitomi tells Madoka she plans to confess her love to Kyosuke after school. Later, Mabayu watches Kyosuke walk home and curses him for being a womanizer. Hitomi approaches Kyosuke and they walk home together. Mabayu is surprised but hears from Homura that Sayaka is acting strangely and Madoka found her. On the footbridge, Madoka asks Sayaka if she's okay. Sayaka tells Madoka she's no longer human and that her body is only a vessel for her soul. Madoka tries to comfort her, but Sayaka throws her Soul Gem onto the street and collapses. Homura stops time and warns Mabayu of the danger that if the Soul Gem gets too far from her body, Sayaka will be dead until it's returned. Sayaka's Soul Gem lands on a truck, and Mabayu locates it with her future vision.
  • Kyubey appears and tells Madoka that making a contract would allow her to save Sayaka right away. In her desperation, Madoka agrees and is about to make a wish to save her friend.
  • They retrieve it, but it disappears from their hands. On the footbridge, Madoka is relieved to see Sayaka awake. Sayaka asks if Madoka made a contract for her, and Madoka explains Kyubey said she could help.
  • In Homura's pendulum room, she apologizes for almost losing her temper, but they can still cooperate to fight Walpurgisnacht, and this time, Sayaka doesn't hate her.
• Day 32 - Friday, the 16th: As the Magical Girls prepare for battle against Walpurgisnacht, Mabayu shares that today's lucky music is Mozart's "Dies irae," which Sayaka finds fitting. Homura freezes time, and they all attack Walpurgisnacht together, but it barely damages her. She quickly knocks out Sayaka and Madoka, and Homura tries to reach Madoka, but Mabayu stops and urges them to leave. Homura says goodbye to Madoka, and Mabayu says goodbye to Sayaka before Homura resets time.
