Appearance
Magical Girl
Personality and Traits
Powers and Abilities
Due to her wish to take the power to harvest from Kyubey, Ui has the power of the collection of curses, being capable of harvesting the impurities from other Magical Girls.[citation needed] However, as Ui's wish was to be able to absorb all of the world's despair, she passively collects too much impurities and was in imminent danger of becoming a Witch immediately after contracting, to the point that Touka and Nemu were not able to transform the energy Ui absorbed fast enough.[citation needed]
Ui's weapon is a kite, however, as Magia Archive elaborates that the 'kite' is actually her personal magic circle, shaped like a swallow, that she flies out.[citation needed]
Ui's Doppel, Shitori Egumo, shares all the pain of the ones she loves and takes it on as her own, the pain then takes the shape of jewels, which decorate the Doppel and add to its power.[citation needed] When the hardships received exceed limit, the power reverses to happiness, however as the Doppel cannot move, it cannot avoid attacks, and though it carries a sword and shield, they are there for decorative purposes only.[citation needed]
History
In Magia Record
Ui Tamaki was a playable character in Magia Record. She had 2 Units: 
Ui Tamaki, released on April 26th 2019 (JP) / July 7th 2020 (NA), and 
Iroha & Ui (Shrine Maiden), released on January 1st 2021 (JP).
Main Story
Arc 1
Ui originally only appeared in Iroha's flashbacks, where she is seen staying in the hospital with Nemu Hiiragi and Touka Satomi. She also made a short appearance during the game's prologue, where she appears before Homura to tell her to come to Kamihama City, in which magical girls can be saved.
Ui makes her debut in chapter 10 in which it is revealed that she is the Embryo Eve that Magius is using in order to defeat Walpurgisnacht and generate enough energy for Magius to unleash their doppel system on the world. Told in flashbacks, it was shown that Ui, Touka, and Nemu each wished for a different part of Kyubey's powers in order to save Iroha from her fate of becoming a witch. Due to Ui's wish to be able to absorb all of the world's despair, she began to drown in despair, passively collecting too much impurities and was in imminent danger of becoming a witch immediately after contracting. Touka and Nemu were not able to transform the energy Ui absorbed fast enough when Alina appeared. She conjured a barrier capable of blocking out the despair that Ui was absorbing and saved her for the time being. Nemu and Touka then decided to transfer Ui's consciousness into that of the now small Kyubey until they can figure out a way to save her. Due to this, everyone in the world forgot who Ui was, including her sister Iroha, Touka and Nemu, until they touched the small Kyubey bearing her memories. During this time, Alina twisted Magius' plans towards chaos as Ui's inert body slowly transformed into a witch's. After battling Shitori Egumo, the witch form of Ui let loose upon the city of Kamihama to battle the impending Walpurgisnacht, Iroha and Touka were able to free Ui's inert body from the Soul Gem on Shitori Egumo and were able to transfer her mind back into her original body's. Alina then took over the now empty body of Shitori Egumo using the Christmas Rumor and attempted to destroy the city. The surrounding magical girls were able to defeat Alina. The small Kyubey then merged with the body of Shitori Egumo in order to spare Ui, since it still contained a copy of her memories. Using her powers of absorption, Ui was able to gather the spent energy from all of the surrounding magical girls, which Touka then transformed into pure energy and Yachiyo added the gathered hope of all the magical girls, transforming that into a weapon. Iroha launched the weapon at Walpurgisnacht, ultimately saving her sister and the day.

|
The following is a summary posted on 4chan's /pmmm/ general by Summary Anon Part 1Ui enjoys school but gets stuck when she has to hand in her assignment on what she wants to be in the future. Unlike Touka and Nemu who respectively have talked with University Dean and Publisher already, she thinks she is not as gifted as them and worries about her future. The feeling is strengthened when she realized her new friend, Riko has decided to inherit her parents' bento shop, and even Tsukasa is thinking of taking over her dad's workshop. While she is counselled by Yachiyo and Iroha that they are also uncertain what they want to do and Ui is being too hasty, Felicia is obviously unhappy as the attention is being taken away. Part 2Hazuki and Nanaka team up with Ui and educate her in how to defeat witches, allowing her to score a victory against the witch and being given the grief seed as a reward. Touka and Nemu tag along and congratulate Ui. As the two leave after giving words of advice and encouragement, Kako, Felicia and Ayame appear and lure Ui to an open field to 'play'. Kako tries to stop the duo but to no avail while Touka and Nemu tagged along since they smell something fishy. Long story short, Felicia and Ayame are jealous that Ui is taking the attention from their sister away and challenged her to a fight after Touka and Nemu see through their lies that they want Ui to be independent. Ui accepts the challenge to prevent the argument from escalating, but before the fight can begin, Sana and Iroha arrive at the scene. It seems Sana discovered Felicia was up to no good, so she informed Iroha and came to the scene. After learning everything from Kako, Iroha reprimands the kids on how they have agreed and promise not to use their powers for inner conflicts and also scold Nemu and Touka since she knew they would provoke people. The kids gets a very long lecture from Iroha that lasts from the afternoon to evening, and eventually the kids apologize and make up with a handshake. Back home, Ui expresses her admiration for her sister and Yachiyo for being able to handle such a situation. Iroha can tell her sister is still troubled, so after some prodding, she had her open up. Iroha tells Ui that she is aiming to be a nurse, not only because of her experience in taking care of the trio, but also because she respects them for their professionalism and kind heart. She informs Ui that she used to dream of becoming a baker, police etc. since she admires how hard and serious they take their job. She concludes that experiences shape a person, and Ui should not have such a low self esteem, and should instead experience the world more where she will eventually find her dream from these experiences. Ui is comforted by her sister and gave her heartfelt thanks. Part 3Ui heads back to the hospital she stayed at and recalls how she became friends with Touka and Nemu. When they first meet, Touka liked to provoke and insult people as she looks down on them while Nemu cried when things didn't go her way. Ui experienced the blunt of their antics. But as they became closer, both changed for the better, Touka became gentler and more thoughtful while Nemu learned to accept other people's opinion. Things changed better when Iroha could visit on her own as she entered Middle school. As she get lost in her memories, she sees her doctor and the two catch up. The doctor is so touched Ui can think of the future that she cried tears of joy, and tells Ui what she should do is take in deeper breaths and enjoy life for now and not hurry. Ui informs the doctor that Touka and Nemu have already found their goal in life, and thus she also wants to follow up. The doctor advised Ui to think of something she likes since some choose their interest for a career. Ui thinks hard and realized she loves the choir since its success depends greatly on group effort and songs as it moves people. The doctor continues to prod Ui and how she wants to express this interest, and she realizes she wants to be a music teacher. She shares this with her family and friends, and will work hard for this future. |

 Ui meets Touka and Nemu on the beach, who is still in a wheelchair. A flashback shows how when the three girls were at the Satomi Medical Center, Ui shows Touka and Nemu a postcard of the ocean that her father got her on his last business trip. The three girls promise that they will then go to the ocean when they leave the hospital. And they show how in their imagination the girls imagined playing in the ocean, however, in the present Touka and Nemu lament that that is not possible now for Nemu because he was left in a wheelchair after his fight against Alina Gray. Nemu says not to worry about her and go swimming, but Touka refuses her and calls her stupid for not understanding that he doesn't want to leave her. The two begin to argue but Ui calms them down, saying that she understands Touka's feelings, and that is why she brought a camera that Yachiyo had lent her. Ui says that with the Nemu camera you can take photos to save memories of them all together and even add her words to the photos you take. Nemu thanks Ui as she and Touka go to the ocean to have Nemu take photos of them. A few days later, in the Minaginagi district, Nemu shows the photos she took of Ui and Touka, revealing that the words she placed on the last photo she took said: "Having summer fun with you from outside the lens."  Iroha comes by to pick up Ui after she finished helping out as a shrine maiden, with plans to go shopping with the rest of their group. When asked for any requests, Ui can't think of anything that she would want from the store, but Iroha is certain that there is something, and gives her sister a sum of money from their mother, who also gave Ui her kimono. Just as she wonders if it's a bit much, Yachiyo and the others arrive, all in their own kimonos. Hoping to find something she'd like from the sales, Ui is eager to go, even with Yachiyo warning her that it will be crowded. The mall was indeed packed, with chatters overlapping one another. Ui seems to be handling it well, but when she tries to remind her sister of the sneakers that she wanted, Iroha noticed that Ui was avoiding the area she wanted to go to. Turns out, Ui is not worried about the crowd itself, but rather the possibility of getting her kimono dirty or wrinkled, considering that it was a gift from her mother. However, Iroha reminds her of the a call she had with her mom, who explained that her kimono was made especially warm, and easy to move around in, while also telling Ui to enjoy herself. This brings Ui's confidence back, and she quickly heads to the store full of cute accessories, bags, and shoes that matched her sister's, with Iroha giggling as she follows close behind.  As the evening gets colder, Iroha and Ui decide to hold hands and walk home, but when their hands make contact, they both receive a static shock, briefly startling them. Not wanting to get zapped again, Ui goes to Touka for advice, who explains the basics about static electricity within the human body, and points out that there are some products that can help reduce this effect. Intrigued, Ui later goes to a 100 Yen shop, in hopes of finding one of these said products for a low price. Unfortunately though, she wasn't the only one with that idea, as all the entire stocks of these items were sold out within a short period of time. Ui goes outside to sulk, when she bumps into Iroha, who shows that she managed to buy the last two wristbands. Now able to hold hands again, Ui laughs happily, reflecting that she and her sister often think the same things. |

Trivia
- Her weapon, Swallow-shaped magic kites appear to be portions of Embryo Eve's Magic Seal. The detail about the Magic Seal is unknown as it appears only in Prologue movie.
- Her magia is Italian for "The light of hope"
- By the time of the Angels on the Road Event, Ui is part of Sayuki Fumino's fanclub, having one of her songs as a ringtone, thanks to Rena's suggestion.
- The kite that appears in her and Iroha's Shrine Maiden unit's second Magia bears a resemblence to Ui's Doppel.
Observations
- Both Isabeau de Bavière and Ui Tamaki wished for some if not all of the abilities of Kyubey. Isabeau's Witch form resembles a butterfly while Ui's Witch form resembles a moth.
- There's some inconsistency regarding Ui's original school. In the manga, her school uniform matches Iroha's, but in the game, Iroha's school is confirmed as an exclusive middle school while Ui is confirmed as an elementary student.
Etymology
- The character of her last name means "ring" (環)
- This is in comparison to Madoka which can be written as "circle" or "round" in kanji (円).
- Her given name comes from a line of the Japanese poem Iroha, from which her sister also takes her name: "Ui no okoyama" (有為の奥山), which translates to "the deep mountains of karma"; here, "ui" is a modification of the Japanese word "uwi", which itself comes from a Buddhist term meaning "karma". Thus, the line refers to a great accumulation of karma.
