Madoka Magica Episode 8: I Was Stupid… So Stupid

<blockquote>''"I'm such a fool!"'' ~ '''[[Sayaka Miki]]''' </blockquote>

{{Infobox_episode

|script = [[Gen Urobuchi]]
|storyboard = Shin'ichi Omata

|adirector = Tomoyuki Matsumoto<br />Yuuji Kondou
}}

== Summary ==
[[Sayaka]] finishes off [[Elsa Maria]], but refuses to use the [[Grief Seed]], giving it to [[Kyoko]], and doesn't feel well afterwards. [[Madoka]] helps her go back home. They are sitting on a bench with Madoka crying over Sayaka'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.

[[Kyoko]] and [[Homura]] are talking about [[Episode_6#Observations|Walpurgisnacht]] in [[Homura_Residence|Homura's apartment]], [[Kyubey]] appears uninvited and tells them about Sayaka's current condition. [[Madoka]] goes to Sayaka's apartment to find out that she'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.

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's sake and prepares to kill Sayaka, but Kyoko interferes. Homura uses a flashbang grenade and escapes.　

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 fatalistic as she wonders why she bothered trying to save such a worthless world, and she begins to transform into darkness.

Madoka talks with Kyubey and he tells her about her apparent power. She seems to almost agree to become a magical girl, but Homura suddenly appears and riddles Kyubey's body with bullets before she can form a contract with him. Homura then breaks down in tears in front of Madoka, who has a strange moment of realization and asks if she has met Homura before. Before Homura can answer Madoka excuses herself and goes searching for Sayaka, ignoring Homura's calling out to her. Another body of Kyubey appears and eats his previous dead body. Kyubey realizes that Homura is a person from another time, and Homura says Kyubey's real identity is that of an "Incubator."

Kyoko 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.

The episode ends with Kyubey noting "since this country calls women who are still growing up {{Nihongo|''shoujo''|少女|girls}}, for girls who on the way of becoming {{Nihongo|''majo''|魔女|witches}}, it's logical to call them {{Nihongo|''mahou shoujo''|魔法少女|magical girls}}."

== Runes ==

This episode made a more intensive use of the musical font. See [[Runes:Episode 8|Runes of episode 8]]

== Observations ==
*In Homura'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]].
*Homura's room is laid out like the surface of a clock. There are gears on the ceiling.
*The artist [[Wikipedia:Paul Klee|Paul Klee]] made [[:File:Paul Klee Walpurgis Night.jpg|a painting]] called "Walpurgis Night". Not only does it have a strangely familiar name, it also seems fairly similar to Sayaka transforming into a witch.
*There is a scene where "Hotel Nwobhm" can be seen. [[wikipedia:NWOBHM|NWOBHM]] is an acronym for "New Wave of British Heavy Metal", a genre of music started in the late 1970s where many bands attempted to toughen up their music.

===Production errors===
*At the beginning of the episode, when Sayaka has defeated [[Elsa Maria|Elsa Maria]], the Grief Seed she picks up and throws to Kyoko is Elsa Maria's. The scene then cuts to Sayaka. When it cuts back to Kyoko, she is holding [[Elly|Elly's]] Grief Seed.

==Trivia==
*The train conversation scene between the two hosts is actually based on a real event that [[NewType_2011-05#Sayaka_Train_Interpretation|Gen Urobuchi witnessed.]]
**[[wikipedia:Shin-ichiro_Miki|Miki Shinchirou]] and [[wikipedia:Nobuo_Tobita|Tobita Nobuo]] are the voice actors for these hosts.

== Billboard ==
The billboard that appears behind Sayaka and Kyouko at the train station contains symbols that are believed to illustrate how new timelines split off from old ones. An alternative theory is that it shows how a witch splits her barrier off into a separate world, leaving her old body behind as if it were an umbrella and hat she no longer needs to wear.

Captchaluff: Anne Frank?

__NOTOC__
'''Margot''' ({{Runes|MARGOT}}) is the witch form of [[Kirika Kure]], and appears in [[Oriko_Magica#Chapter_Titles_and_Summaries|chapter 5 and 6]] of Puella Magi Oriko Magica. She is a long, towering creature mostly composed of female torsos. She wears a hat with an eyeball perched on it, and is armed with two long scythes. Like she could as a magical girl, she has the ability to slow down her opponents. Her minions are blob-shaped creatures with hats. Large maws open up on their bodies to devour victims.

* Her name has not been officially revealed, either in-universe or by the creators. However, when Mami is saved by Kyoko and Yuma, there is a sign with '''Margot Garden''' written on it in the background.
*Her name might be a reference to [[Wikipedia:La_Reine_Margot|Queen Margot]], a novel by Alejandro Dumas.
*Margot is the name of [[Wikipedia:Anne_Frank|Anne Frank]]'s sister.

*I read part of chapter 1. Besides Homura's fighting scene, it also indicated that Madoka sees dead bodies of the other 3 magical girls, which not seen on anime. So I suspect Sayaka's fate is not always becoming a witch. But it is strange that they are still in magical girl form, not in regular girl form.

::::::I heard speculation that she was the kind of girl who believed in the anime/manga versions of magical girls, and made her own costumes before meeting Kyubey.

:I thought it meant that people joked that she was an alien and that was what ultimately made her turn into a witch. --[[User:Captchaluff|Captchaluff]] 05:31, 18 March 2012 (UTC)

Captchaluff: Fixad spelling error and some grammar

== Sayaka Train Interpretation ==

[[File:Otona Anime Vol 20 Scan 4.jpg|150px|thumb]]

Urobuchi - InuCurry-san did not just design the witches, they also decided under what situation the fight scenes took place. That was really fun.

Q - And there was Sayaka turning into a witch in Ep.8

Urobuchi - The conversations between two hosts that was overheard by Sayaka were true. I was in a crowded train and right in front of me were two guys making that kind of conversation.

Shinbo - Wanna add: Sayaka in the anime did not kill those hosts.

Urobuchi - In the screenplay it could be taken either way, so in the manga version by Hanokage-san the interpretation was taken as killed.

== Kyubey as Alien Entity ==
[[File:Otona Anime Vol 20 Scan 3.jpg|150px|thumb]]

Q - There were more than one QB appearing in Ep.8. Do they have different personalities?

Urobuchi - The individual entities may be separate, but the consciousness is one. So even if one individual entity should die, there was not much damage. Just one individual dying is only like when you pull off one thread of hair.

The scene where QB ate its corpse was a scene added during the screenplay writing. I wanted to write something about QB that would highlight how it and human being could be absolutely mutually incomprehensible. Something like the reaction when your compatriot died.

== Homura's shield ==
[[File:408.jpg|150px|thumb]]
Homura and her hammer space shield. Seems that Gen wasn't really fond giving her only this as weapon, but after seeing the storyboards it seems that he liked the whole pulling machine guns out of nowhere dynamic. The producers also liked it.

More on the shield:

―――ほむらの能力設定をもう少し詳しく教えてください

虚淵：

ほむらの盾に見えている武器が砂時計で、その砂の流れを遮断することで
時間をとめているんです。で、砂時計の上部分の砂が全部なくなった時点で
ひっくり返すと１か月分の時間が戻る。それまでは止める事しかできない。
つまり、砂時計の１か月分の砂をやりくりする能力がほむらの特殊能力なんです。
まき戻った時間は…そこが主題の作品ではないので厳密には考えていませんが
世界は平行して分岐しているのかな、と思っています。

Q - Could you elaborate a bit more on the power of Homura?

Urobuchi - The weapon that looks like Homura's shield is actually a sand timer. When the flow of the sand is blocked, time is stopped. And when there is no sand on the upper part of the sand timer and then the timer is reverted, one month's worth of time is turned back. But before that stage is reached, only time stopping is possible. This means the special power of Homura is the ability to manipulate one month's time's worth of sand in the sand timer. As for the time passed and then turned back, since it was not the focus in this work I did not think it through very thoroughly. I think you can say that the world split up and became parallel worlds there.

== Origin of Mami's Tiro Finale ==

[[File:Otona Anime Vol 20 Scan 5.jpg|150px|thumb]]

Because when I wrote the screenply there was still nothing done for monster design or art settings, I did not try to decide the layout of the battles. This means in the original screenplay there was only rough sketches like "In this scene they fight while speaking these dialogues".

At that time Mami-san's strongest attack move was named "Ultimate Shoot" (lol). And I thought this really sounded so stupid, so just at the voice dubbing studio I got anxious and rushed to translate the words on the net. I tried using Spanish and Greek but at the end I picked Italian which became "Tiro Finale".

== Madoka Sequel ==
[[File:Otona Anime Vol 20 Scan 2.jpg|150px|thumb]]

Note: this interview was made on Mar 13th

Q - We can only wait for the completion of the battles in the second half. It may be a bit too soon, but what do both of you think about making a sequel "Madoka 2"?

Shinbo - I have many ideas coming up, like what we could do with 2 cours, or some episodes that happen within the 12 episodes already made. As we have already come this far, I want to expand on the world we created.

Urobuchi - Because the length was only one cour, a lot of elements and details had to be cut off. I am now thinking very hard about how to develop the next "Madoka".
