&#039;&#039;&#039;Patricia&#039;&#039;&#039; ({{Runes|PATRICIA}}) is one of the [[Witch|witches]] that appeared in [[Episode 10]]. It is speculated that the original magical girl wanted to enjoy a bright and happy youth. Others speculate that she may be an abuse victim.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;div&gt;__NOTOC__&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Oktavia von Seckendorff&#039;&#039;&#039; ({{Runes|OKTAVIA VON SECKENDORFF}}) is a [[witch]] that was [[Sayaka Miki]]. She briefly appears at the end of [[Episode 8]] and battles with [[Kyouko Sakura]] in [[Episode 9]]. Her Labyrinth is filled with calls for attention -- probably to [[Kyousuke Kamijou]]. Initially, the outer areas of her Labyrinth are filled with train tracks, perhaps a reflection of the train station where she became a witch. Later on, the entrance area becomes a long corridor filled with concert posters. The center of the Labyrinth appears to be a distorted concert hall, where the seats fill the domed ceiling. Her weapons appear to be manifested wheels, and the concert hall is populated with a spectral string orchestra.  &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

|english_desc  = The mermaid witch; it is in her nature to fall in love. She visits one concert hall after another, looking for one that moved her so long ago. Her fortune only turns under the weight of memories and no longer moves toward the future. Nothing will reach her any longer. She will come to know nothing more. She simply allows no one to disturb her minions&#039; playing.&lt;br /&gt;

}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Observations and Facts==&lt;br /&gt;
*Sayaka&#039;s witch name is Oktavia von Seckendorff. Karl Siegmund von Seckendorff was a german poet who wrote a book called &amp;quot;The Wheel of Fate&amp;quot; (Das Rad des Schicksals), and could explain Sayaka&#039;s wheel attack.&lt;br /&gt;
*Seckendorff was also the name of a Frankish knight from a noble family. &lt;br /&gt;
*Oktavia is the german form of the latin name &#039;&#039;Octavia&#039;&#039; which means &amp;quot;the eigth&amp;quot; (child, month or musical interval) or &amp;quot;from the family Octavia&amp;quot;. It is the direct root of [[Wikipedia:Octave|octave]] in English (an octave being the eight interval of a scale). The name was most likely chosen because of the link between Sayaka and music.&lt;br /&gt;
*The specific runic font used for Oktavia and Holger&#039;s cards resembles musical instruments and notation.&lt;br /&gt;
*One of the alternate timelines shown in episode 10 gives her barrier a slightly different appearance with familiars that resemble [[Hitomi]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Speculations ==&lt;br /&gt;
*The runic font doesn&#039;t seem to exist in the &amp;quot;real world&amp;quot;. Ergo, the strange posters that bear runic text in [[Episode 8]] may have been a &amp;quot;telltale sign&amp;quot; of the beginning of Sayaka&#039;s Labyrinth manifestation.&lt;br /&gt;
*The pink ribbon is a sign of attraction, since Madoka&#039;s mother mentioned in ep 1 that wearing a pink ribbon would attract attention.&lt;br /&gt;
**It may though just be a transformed ribbon of Sayaka&#039;s school uniform.&lt;br /&gt;
*Similarities with the myth of Orion:&lt;br /&gt;
**&amp;quot;Orion was the son of the sea-god Poseidon&amp;quot; - the reason for Sayaka&#039;s (Octavia&#039;s) half-fish form.&lt;br /&gt;
**&amp;quot;Odysseus sees him hunting in the underworld with a bronze club&amp;quot; - first time we&#039;ve seen Sayaka in a barrier (underworld), she carried a golden (bronze) bat.&lt;br /&gt;
**&amp;quot;he hunted with the goddess Artemis and her mother Leto&amp;quot; - she hunted with Mami and Madoka.&lt;br /&gt;
**&amp;quot;threatened to kill every beast on Earth&amp;quot; - kill every witch on Earth.&lt;br /&gt;
**&amp;quot;Mother Earth objected and sent a giant scorpion to kill Orion&amp;quot; - Kyouko appears, Kyouko&#039;s spear could refer to the scorpions spear (tail).&lt;br /&gt;
**&amp;quot;The creature succeeded, and after his death, the goddesses asked Zeus to place Orion among the constellations. Zeus consented and, as a memorial to the hero&#039;s death, added the Scorpion to the heavens as well&amp;quot; - After they died Sayaka&#039;s grief seed and Kyouko&#039;s Soul Gem turned into raw energy used to fuel the universe (as explained by Kyuubey in episode 9 ) they literally among the stars now.&lt;br /&gt;
*The witch&#039;s mermaid tail may be a reference to both Hans Christian Andersen&#039;s [[wikipedia:The_Little_Mermaid|The Little Mermaid]] and the story of [[wikipedia:Melusine|Melusine]]. Goethe wrote a version of Melusine titled Die Neue Melusine or [http://books.google.com/books?id=J8Pb0oeVAaIC&amp;amp;pg=PA347&amp;amp;dq=the+new+melusina&amp;amp;hl=en&amp;amp;ei=u09zTc3mA4K4twfAyv35Dg&amp;amp;sa=X&amp;amp;oi=book_result&amp;amp;ct=result&amp;amp;resnum=1&amp;amp;ved=0CCgQ6AEwAA#v=onepage&amp;amp;q=the%20new%20melusina&amp;amp;f=false The New Melusina].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*The wheels used in Oktavia&#039;s attack may also symbolize the Wheel of Fortune from tarot, whose popular interpretations include &amp;quot;possibilities, opportunities, new developments, sudden changes&amp;quot;, which fit Sayaka&#039;s life from when she encountered Kyubey to when she became a Witch.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*The structure of the final room may be a reflection of Miki Sayaka&#039;s subconscious.  &lt;br /&gt;

&lt;div&gt;[[File:Ep1 Witch Floating.jpg|thumb|The supposed Witch from the dream in episode 1]]&lt;br /&gt;
==Speculations==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*The object in the sky in the beginning of Episode 1 seems to be an upside down figure of [[Witch]] wearing a dress and veil, arms extended. The bottom has a [[wikipedia:Tomoe|tomoe]] pattern on it.&lt;br /&gt;
*While many believed the witch in the first episode was Sayaka, this was proven false in episode 9 when they revealed Sayaka&#039;s actual witch.&lt;br /&gt;
*Homura&#039;s [[Homura_Residence|documents]] concerning [[Episode_6#Observations|Walpurgisnacht]] contain illustrations of a similar witch. Episode 10 confirmed that this witch is, indeed, Walpurgis herself.&lt;br /&gt;

|name=Sayaka Miki&lt;br /&gt;
|image=[[File:Sayaka Chara Sheet.png|300px]]&lt;br /&gt;
|jname=美樹 さやか (Miki Sayaka) &lt;br /&gt;
|seiyuu=[http://anidb.net/perl-bin/animedb.pl?show=creator&amp;amp;creatorid=401 Eri Kitamura]&lt;br /&gt;
|age=13-14 (estimated)&lt;br /&gt;
|weapon=Sword&lt;br /&gt;
}}&lt;br /&gt;
==Official Info==&lt;br /&gt;
* Madoka’s classmate and good friend. Energetic and lively, which is perhaps why her sword is the only melee weapon among the four.&lt;br /&gt;
* Ms. Aoki’s Design Check!: Her personality is so boyish that I had to be careful not to make her look too boyish too. So I gave her hair a diagonal line in back, to straddle the line between short and medium length.&lt;br /&gt;
* Magical girl outfit: Sayaka’s outfit is the closest to combat gear. Since her sword is a melee weapon, I paid attention to that while designing her clothes. (Aoki)&lt;br /&gt;
* Her outfit features diagonal-cut skirt and shoulderless top for ease of movement. Add a cape, and she’s a picturesque swordswoman.&lt;br /&gt;
* School uniform: Her figure is flat and plain, but her chest is bigger than Madoka’s. Her hairbow is a stitched design. Below, she wears simple navy-blue high socks.&lt;br /&gt;
* Sayaka turns into a witch in Episode 8.  While she has brought hope to others, the balance between hope and despair is then mitigated by an equal amount of despair appearing in Sayaka&#039;s soul.  This despair eventually overcomes Sayaka, shatters her Soul Gem, and turns it into a Grief Seed.&lt;br /&gt;
* Her witch form got killed by Kyouko in Episode 9, they tried to bring Sayaka back to her normal form, but according to Qb that was impossible.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Fun Facts==&lt;br /&gt;
*The first character in her last name (美) means &amp;quot;beauty&amp;quot;. The last character (樹) means &amp;quot;tree&amp;quot;. Her name could also be written 幹 (tree trunk) or 神酒 (sake offered to the gods).&lt;br /&gt;
*Saya（莢）　means husk in which seed of leguminous plant is wrapped. &lt;br /&gt;
*Her last name can also be used as a first name.&lt;br /&gt;
*Her first name is written in hiragana, which has no special meaning. However, &amp;quot;sayaka&amp;quot; could also be written 明か (obvious) or 清か (clear).&lt;br /&gt;
*She describes herself as having been born &amp;quot;Petit bourgeois.&amp;quot; which is French for &amp;quot;petty bourgeois&amp;quot; or, essentially, middle class.&lt;br /&gt;
*Although her character design depicts her with a two-edged sword she is seen using a katana with a saber-like guard in the anime. The manga uses the sword from her original design.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Speculations and Observations==&lt;br /&gt;
*Many fans believe Sayaka is the [[Witch_from_the_dream_in_episode_one|witch in Madoka&#039;s dream]] at the beginning of Episode 1. However, this apparently has been disproved by Sayaka&#039;s witch form in Episode 9, which is entirely different in appearance from the witch Madoka saw.&lt;br /&gt;
*While using her magic, [[Deciphering the notes|circles of notes]] are sometimes seen around or near her. This is believed to be related to her wish to heal [[Kamijou]].&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
== Summary ==&lt;br /&gt;
[[Sayaka]] finishes off [[Elsa Maria]], but refuses to use the [[Grief Seed]], giving it to [[Kyouko]], and doesn&#039;t feel well afterwards. [[Madoka]] helps her go back home. They are sitting on a bench with Madoka crying over Sayaka&#039;s actions. Sayaka tells that all that is left for her in life is fighting witches. Madoka tells that she wants to make Sayaka happy, but Sayaka runs away, telling [[Madoka]] not to follow her, while her Soul Gem is dimming.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[Kyouko]] and [[Homura]] are talking about [[Episode_6#Observations|Walpurgisnacht]] in [[Homura_Residence|Homura&#039;s apartment]], [[Kyuubey]] appears uninvited and tells them about Sayaka&#039;s current condition. [[Madoka]] goes to Sayaka&#039;s apartment to find out that she&#039;s been absent since the day before. As [[Hitomi]] and [[Kyousuke]] are walking home, the two of them stop in a park and have a lively conversation. Sayaka watches from afar.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Homura speaks with Sayaka, trying to get her to use a Grief Seed, but Sayaka refuses. Sayaka accuses Homura of putting up false pretenses and always lying to them. Homura admits she is just doing things for Madoka&#039;s sake and prepares to kill Sayaka, but Kyouko interferes. Homura uses a flashbang grenade and escapes.　&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Sayaka is riding in a train where two men are discussing and badmouthing their girlfriends and generally acting misogynistic. She interferes, asking them how they can speak this way about women who love them. Her train of thought grows progressively more nihilistic as she wonders why she bothered trying to save such a worthless world, and she begins to transform into darkness.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Madoka talks with Kyuubey and he tells her about her apparent power. She seems to almost agree to become a [[Puella Magi]], but Homura shoots Kyuubey and starts crying afterwards. Suddenly, Madoka&#039;s mind goes blank and she asks if she has met Homura before. Before Homura can answer Madoka excuses herself and goes searching for Sayaka, ignoring Homura calling out to her. Another body of Kyuubey appears and eats his previous dead body. Kyuubey realizes that Homura is a person from another time, and Homura says Kyuubey&#039;s real identity &amp;quot;Incubator&amp;quot;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Kyouko finds Sayaka and sees that her Soul Gem is almost completely dark. Sayaka says that the hope and despair must always be in balance, starts crying, and her Soul Gem explodes, creating a maze with Sayaka apparently becoming a witch.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The episode ends with Kyubey noting &amp;quot;since this country calls women who are still growing up {{Nihongo|&#039;&#039;shoujo&#039;&#039;|少女|girls}}, for girls who on the way of becoming {{Nihongo|&#039;&#039;majo&#039;&#039;|魔女|witches}}, it&#039;s logical to call them {{Nihongo|&#039;&#039;mahou shoujo&#039;&#039;|魔法少女|magical girls}}.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Runes ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
This episode made a more intensive use of the musical font. See [[Runes:Episode 8|Runes of episode 8]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Observations ==&lt;br /&gt;
*In Homura&#039;s apartment, there are a number of documents pertaining to Walpurgisnacht on display. Images of these documents have been archived at the article: [[Homura Residence]].&lt;br /&gt;
*Homura&#039;s room is laid out like the surface of a clock. There are gears on the ceiling.&lt;br /&gt;
*The artist [[Wikipedia:Paul Klee|Paul Klee]] made [[:File:Paul Klee Walpurgis Night.jpg|a painting]] called &amp;quot;Walpurgis Night&amp;quot;. Not only does it have a strangely familiar name, it also seems fairly similar to Sayaka transforming into a witch.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;div&gt;{{spoilers}}&lt;br /&gt;
{{Infobox_character&lt;br /&gt;
|name=Kyuubee&lt;br /&gt;
|image=[[File:Kyuubey Chara Sheet.jpg|300px]]&lt;br /&gt;
|jname=キュゥべえ (Kyuubee) &lt;br /&gt;
|seiyuu=[http://anidb.net/perl-bin/animedb.pl?show=creator&amp;amp;creatorid=641 Emiri Katou]&lt;br /&gt;
}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Kyuubey&#039;&#039;&#039; is a &amp;quot;familiar,&amp;quot; endued with the power to grant any wish for exchange of a contract-- for the person the wish is bestowed upon to become a Mahou Shoujo (magical girl). These magical girls are then tasked with the defeating of [[Witch|Witches]]. Kyuubey features prominently in the official release artwork first two episodes and is central to the current story.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Trivia==&lt;br /&gt;
*People still argue as to how to write is name. Is it Kyubey or Kyuubey?&lt;br /&gt;
**His/her name is written in both Hiragana and Katakana as キュ&#039;&#039;(kyu)&#039;&#039;ゥ&#039;&#039;(u)&#039;&#039;べ&#039;&#039;(be)&#039;&#039;え&#039;&#039;(e)&#039;&#039;. So the more acceptable Romaji for his/her name is Kyuubee/Kyuubey.&lt;br /&gt;
**On the other hand, [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Re0TB956D5E&amp;amp;feature=related the fifth commercial] has his name romanized as &amp;quot;Kyubey&amp;quot;, hence the argument.&lt;br /&gt;
**[[Translated_Official_Documents#Kyubey_cuteness|Urobuchi Gen joked]] that the &amp;quot;Kyu&amp;quot; comes from the katakana of the english word &#039;&#039;Cute&#039;&#039; so it could also be Cubey.&lt;br /&gt;
**[[Episode 8]] leads to think that his name comes from &#039;Incubator&#039;, which romanization would be &#039;in&#039;&#039;&#039;kyubee&#039;&#039;&#039;taa&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Speculations==&lt;br /&gt;
*When Kyubey get shot by Homura in [[Episode 8]], another one appears and eat the dead body. It could either be another instance of &#039;Kyubey&#039; (as expected in some speculations), or the same Kyubey that respawned. After all, [[Wikipedia:Cat#History_and_mythology|cats are supposed to have 9 lives]], so what about him?&lt;br /&gt;
**Kyubey said that he has plenty of spares.&lt;br /&gt;
*Many fans believe [[Speculah:Kyuubey_is_Evil_Theory|Kyuubey is evil]] and believe he/she should not be trusted.&lt;br /&gt;
*According to the same theory, it is likely that Kyuubey is the messenger of a greater entity that has its own agenda.&lt;br /&gt;
*Some think Kyubey&#039;s real form is that of a red devil and his/her white fur acts as a cover as indicated by tears rather than bleeding in Episode 1.&lt;br /&gt;
** Additionally, when he gets shot full of holes in Episode 8 there are small drops that appear to be blood, but they do not spread out after he is hit. He also appears to have no bones or organs.&lt;br /&gt;
** [[Gen Urobuchi]]&#039;s [[Translated_Official_Documents#Chidamari|tweet]] &amp;quot;Yeah, that&#039;s terrible! We still haven&#039;t shown even a single scene with bloodshed!&amp;quot; (まだ今んとこ流血シーンなんてないのに、ひどいよね！) may refer to the fact that Kyuubey doesn&#039;t bleed.&lt;br /&gt;

&#039;&#039;&#039;Kyuubey&#039;&#039;&#039; is a &amp;quot;familiar,&amp;quot; endued with the power to grant any wish for exchange of a contract-- for the person the wish is bestowed upon to become a Mahou Shoujo (magical girl). These magical girls are then tasked with the defeating of [[Witch|Witches]]. Kyuubey features prominently in the official release artwork first two episodes and is central to the current story.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Trivia==&lt;br /&gt;
*People still argue as to how to write is name. Is it Kyubey or Kyuubey?&lt;br /&gt;
**His/her name is written in both Hiragana and Katakana as キュ&#039;&#039;(kyu)&#039;&#039;ゥ&#039;&#039;(u)&#039;&#039;べ&#039;&#039;(be)&#039;&#039;え&#039;&#039;(e)&#039;&#039;. So the more acceptable Romaji for his/her name is Kyuubee/Kyuubey.&lt;br /&gt;
**On the other hand, [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Re0TB956D5E&amp;amp;feature=related the fifth commercial] has his name romanized as &amp;quot;Kyubey&amp;quot;, hence the argument.&lt;br /&gt;
**[[Translated_Official_Documents#Kyubey_cuteness|Urobuchi Gen joked]] that the &amp;quot;Kyu&amp;quot; comes from the katakana of the english word &#039;&#039;Cute&#039;&#039; so it could also be Cubey.&lt;br /&gt;
**[[Episode 8]] leads to think that his name comes from &#039;Incubator&#039;, which romanization would be &#039;in&#039;&#039;&#039;kyubee&#039;&#039;&#039;taa&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Speculations==&lt;br /&gt;
*When Kyubey get shot by Homura in [[Episode 8]], another one appears and eat the dead body. It could either be another instance of &#039;Kyubey&#039; (as expected in some speculations), or the same Kyubey that respawned. After all, [[Wikipedia:Cat#History_and_mythology|cats are supposed to have 9 lives]], so what about him?&lt;br /&gt;
**Kyubey said that he has plenty of spares.&lt;br /&gt;
*Many fans believe [[Speculah:Kyuubey_is_Evil_Theory|Kyuubey is evil]] and believe he/she should not be trusted.&lt;br /&gt;
*According to the same theory, it is likely that Kyuubey is the messenger of a greater entity that has its own agenda.&lt;br /&gt;
*Some think Kyubey&#039;s real form is that of a red devil and his/her white fur acts as a cover as indicated by tears rather than bleeding in Episode 1.&lt;br /&gt;
** Additionally, when he gets shot full of holes in Episode 8 there are small drops that appear to be blood, but they do not spread out after he is hit. He also appears to have no bones or organs.&lt;br /&gt;
** [[Gen Urobuchi]]&#039;s [[Translated_Official_Documents#Chidamari|tweet]] &amp;quot;Yeah, that&#039;s terrible! We still haven&#039;t shown even a single scene with bloodshed!&amp;quot; (まだ今んとこ流血シーンなんてないのに、ひどいよね！) may refer to the fact that Kyuubey doesn&#039;t bleed.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;div&gt;__NOTOC__&lt;br /&gt;

{{Glossary&lt;br /&gt;
|term        = {{Nihongo|Familiar|使い魔|Tsukaima}}&lt;br /&gt;
|description = Lesser monsters divided out of the essence of a [[Witch]]. Though normally assigned the task of maintaining and defending their parent-witch&#039;s [[barrier]], it seems that they can eventually gain independence and stray to form their own barriers. Further growing, they take on the form of their parent.&lt;br /&gt;

|image_desc  = [[Gertrud]]&#039;s Grief Seed.&lt;br /&gt;
}}&lt;br /&gt;
The odd center of weight in Grief Seeds causes them to balance on their bottom pins. It may indicate some sort of gyroscopic self-stabilization.&lt;br /&gt;

{{Glossary&lt;br /&gt;
|term        = {{Nihongo|Soul Gem|ソウルジェム}}&lt;br /&gt;
|description = A gem birthed from a contract with [[Kyuubey]]. Proof that one is a Puella Magi; the source of her magical power. Soul Gems contain the magical girl&#039;s soul, while the body is merely a husk that is controlled by the Gem.&lt;br /&gt;

|description = The negative impulse that is called anxiety or suspicion, or excessive wrath or hatred = existences that spread the seeds of disaster across the world. Normally, they conceal themselves behind [[#Barrier|barriers]]. [[Episode 8]] reveals that Witches are in fact the &amp;quot;grown&amp;quot; forms of Puella Magi, as 魔女, Majou, are evolved forms of 魔法少女, Mahou Shoujo. &lt;br /&gt;
|image       = &lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Kyuubey&#039;&#039;&#039; is a &amp;quot;familiar,&amp;quot; endued with the power to grant any wish for exchange of a contract-- for the person the wish is bestowed upon to become a Mahou Shoujo (magical girl). These magical girls are then tasked with the defeating of [[Witch|Witches]]. Kyuubey features prominently in the official release artwork first two episodes and is central to the current story.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Trivia==&lt;br /&gt;
*People still argue as to how to write is name. Is it Kyubey or Kyuubey?&lt;br /&gt;
**His/her name is written in both Hiragana and Katakana as キュ&#039;&#039;(kyu)&#039;&#039;ゥ&#039;&#039;(u)&#039;&#039;べ&#039;&#039;(be)&#039;&#039;え&#039;&#039;(e)&#039;&#039;. So the more acceptable Romaji for his/her name is Kyuubee/Kyuubey.&lt;br /&gt;
**On the other hand, [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Re0TB956D5E&amp;amp;feature=related the fifth commercial] has his name romanized as &amp;quot;Kyubey&amp;quot;, hence the argument.&lt;br /&gt;
**[http://www.ggkthx.org/2011/01/20/puella-magi-madoka-magica-episode-3/ Aparently] it comes from the katakana of the english word &#039;&#039;Cute&#039;&#039; so it could also be Cubey.&lt;br /&gt;
***Moreover, the shape of the shadow in Episode 5 might suggest that Kyuubey originate in the mythological creature &amp;quot;Kyuubi no Kitsune&amp;quot;([http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nine-tailed_fox Nine-tailed fox]).&lt;br /&gt;
**[[Episode 8]] leads to think that his name comes from &#039;Incubator&#039;, which romanization would be &#039;in&#039;&#039;&#039;kyubee&#039;&#039;&#039;taa&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Observations==&lt;br /&gt;
*When Kyubey get shot by Homura in [[Episode 8]], another one appears and eat the dead body. It could either be another instance of &#039;Kyubey&#039; (as expected in some speculations), or the same Kyubey that respawned. After all, [[Wikipedia:Cat#History_and_mythology|cats are supposed to have 9 lives]], so what about him?&lt;br /&gt;
**Kyubey said that he has plenty of spares.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Speculations==&lt;br /&gt;
*Many fans believe [[Speculah:Kyuubey_is_Evil_Theory|Kyuubey is evil]] and believe he/she should not be trusted.&lt;br /&gt;
*According to the same theory, it is likely that Kyuubey is the messenger of a greater entity that has its own agenda.&lt;br /&gt;
*Some think Kyubey&#039;s real form is that of a red devil and his/her white fur acts as a cover as indicated by tears rather than bleeding in Episode 1.&lt;br /&gt;
** Additionally, when he gets shot full of holes in Episode 8 there are small drops that appear to be blood, but they do not spread out after he is hit. He also appears to have no bones or organs.&lt;br /&gt;
