Let me know if I've missed something

Pages I be developing before publishing:

• Timelines --> Timeline

Original

• • Timelines/Original
    • Add Tsubaki's Backstory
    • Add Mami saving Michiru and Michiru backstory
    • Add everyone's backstory from Kazumi
    • Finish Kazumi Magica
    • Timelines/Original/Scene 0 DONE
    • Timelines/Original/Miscellaneous --> For events with an unclear placement between the timelines or for random timelines that are only mentioned in passing (like some events in Exedra apparently)
    • Timelines/Original/Final DONE --> Maybe merge it with Scene 0, but probably not. Yeah it's better to leave it as separate unless we get confirmation.
    • Timelines/Original/Null DONE --> Maybe have it turn into just Timelines/Null instead.

Law of Cycles

• • Timelines/Law of Cycles --> Add the Law of Cycles' Hanna's Universe details here. This will be just the Law of Cycles and the ones below will be deleted.
    • Ultimate Madoka visiting Oriko and Kirika, as well as Homura being given the possibility to go into the magia record universe to be happy, but she refused
    • Timelines/Law of Cycles/Wraith Arc
    • Timelines/Law of Cycles/Rebellion

Devil

• • Timelines/Devil --> Name might change depending on new information we get on Kaiten. Let this be the last one to be done. It's currently in the Law of Cycles thingie

Magia Record

• • Timelines/Magia Record
    • Timelines/Magia Record/Before Arc 1 --> Timeline/Magia Record/Pre-Arc 1
    • Timelines/Magia Record/Arc 1 --> Add the removed details from Magia Record that Exedra omitted
    • Timelines/Magia Record/Interlude
    • Timelines/Magia Record/Arc 2
    • Timelines/Magia Record/Post-Arc 2
    • Timelines/Magia Record/Miscellaneous --> Will also include the anime, and Magia Report (the stuff for that needs just to keep track of the running gags and details on how/what it references irl). The stuff below will get deleted

• • Timelines/Magia Record Game
    • Timelines/Magia Record Game/Before Arc 1 --> Timelines/Magia Record Game/Pre-Arc 1
    • Timelines/Magia Record Game/Arc 1
    • Timelines/Magia Record Game/Interlude --> Maybe rename this to Pre-Arc 2
    • Timelines/Magia Record Game/Arc 2
    • Timelines/Magia Record Game/Post-Arc 2
    • Timelines/Magia Record Game/Nebulous --> May be deleted but just in case. There's too many events so it's better to have the backup option.
    • Timelines/Magia Record Game/Miscellaneous
  • Timelines/Magia Record Anime
    • Timelines/Miscellaneous --> Or find a better way to integrate the ones from Mirrors. Will probably get deleted.

Magia Exedra

• • Timelines/Magia Exedra
  • Timelines/Magia Exedra/Miscellaneous

Conflicts

• • Magia Exedra takes place outside of these all, maybe a new branch like Timelines/Magia Exedra and then Timelines/Magia Exedra/Miscellaneous for Magia Etc. But what should I call the area out of the timelines be called? Like where the Law of Cycles and Lighthouse are in.

Questions

• Also add information about how it's possible the original history of the Magia Record Game/Anime is the same as the one in the original, but it's ultimately unconfirmed and episode 11 depictions and production notes contradict that.
• Also if anyone has better names for the Articles before they're published, maybe we should have a vote or something. On one hand, short names like Timeline/Original/1 is short and to the point, but on the other, some like Scene 0 14 and Different Story may not mesh with that. Plus Portable and maybe Exedra will have more than one entry to them, so there may be something like Timeline/Original/Portable/Madoka, Timeline/Original/Portable/Sayaka, etc.
  • Also add the clarification about the different universes in Timeline article.
  • Maybe a better way to name them would be by the monsters they face, like instead of Timeline/Original, we can have Timeline/Witch. Then wed have Timeline/Wraith, Timeline/Doppel, Timeline/Devil. Idk we're still at the planning stage.

Timeline

To replace Timelines

This article focuses on the timeline of all Madoka Magica media to create both a chronological, as well as multiversal understanding of events. Madoka Magica contains many instances of alternate universes, branching timelines created through time travel, as well as universal rewrites which retroactively affect both of the former. To clarify these concepts, this article uses the following defined terms:

• Universe: A reality defined by a core set of metaphysical rules, usually established by a universal rewrite, such as the creation of the Law of Cycles.
• Timeline: A linear sequence of events within a Universe. Time travel can create multiple branching timelines that share the same underlying rules.
• Alternate Universe: A reality with a fundamentally different history and/or rules, not originating from a rewrite in the primary sequence.

With the addition of Homura's time travel, it is sometimes difficult to surmise whether an event takes place in a branch timeline or a separate alternate universe altogether.

Navigation

To navigate through the layout of this article and its sub-articles, below is an explanation of the organizational logic. Branching timelines are grouped under the Universe whose rules they share. Confirmed alternate universes are grouped under the media they are depicted in, which may not reflect a cosmological link. For example, Null Magical Girl, despite having few relations to other media, is grouped with the Original Universe due to its release in Kirara Magica. On the ther hand, crossover events like Magia Clash! are grouped with the Magia Record Universe because they appear in that game. For the same reason, events like Forever Halloween Night are grouped in the Magia Exedra Universe.

The Original Universe is the first to be depicted, where Kyubey created the system of Magical Girls becoming Witches. In the first timeline, Homura Akemi makes a contract to go back in time, creating many more timelines where she repeats the same month. It is ultimately unknown how many times she looped, but in the final timeline of this Universe, Madoka Kaname makes a contract to erase Witches across all time and space, executing a universal rewrite that reaches every timeline and reality within her reach.

The first fourteen timelines Homura creates are depicted in Scene 0; while it is believed the fourteenth is the final one, this is unconfirmed. Given expanded media and interviews, the distinction between a branch timeline and a true alternate universe is often unclear. Therefore, the first fourteen timelines, other possible timelines, and the final timeline are treated in separate articles for clarity.

According to the Magia Record Anime, Oriko Magica, as well as Scene Zero, the timelines Homura created continue to exist after she leaves them, simply proceeding without her presence or Mabayu's.

After Madoka's wish, she rewrites the rules of all realities within her reach, while residing outside them in the Law of Cycles. The Law of Cycles Universe is the state after this rewrite, where Magical Girls fight Wraiths and are taken upon death to the Law of Cycles, a realm outside any specific timeline. The Law of Cycles manages countless different realities, or "Records," from which the girls are ultimately unified into.

Among the anomalous realities within the Law of Cycles' purview is the Magia Record Universe, which developed a Doppel System. Other similar realities exist, such as the one in the Magia Record anime, which was assimilated after its Doppel System failed.

Narratively, the events of the Magia Record Universe are placed between the establishment of the Law of Cycles and the events of Rebellion, where Ultimate Madoka sent Nagisa Momoe as an emissary. It is unknown if these realities were originally timelines Homura left behind (later rewritten by Madoka's wish) or separate alternate universes from the start.

Following Madoka's rewrite, Homura remained the sole connection to the old world. Captured by Incubators to lure the Law of Cycles, Homura was saved by Madoka, Sayaka Miki, and Nagisa. In response, Homura overtook the Law of Cycles and rewrote the universe again, becoming Devil Homura and separating Madoka from her divine aspect.

This new reality, the Devil Universe, has one known primary timeline, ruled by Devil Homura, thus it is unknown if many realities were rewritten, or simply the one Homura resides in. In this timeline, Madoka lives a normal human life, Magical Girls still fight Wraiths, and the Law of Cycles remains partially active, though its exact status is unclear. It is unknown if this rewrite affected only this single world, if Homura governs all realities, or if other worlds (like the Magia Record Universe) continue unchanged under Homura's new regime. With the current information, it appears that only one reality was affected and locked away from the incomplete Law of Cycles, however it is ultimately unconfirmed.
