---|---|
Japanese Name | 佐倉モモ (Sakura Momo) |
Seiyū | Mami Shirata |
Age | Younger than Kyoko (Deceased) |
Official Info
- Kyoko's little sister. She appears only in flashbacks, having died before the beginning of the series.
Trivia and Speculation
- The first character for Sakura (佐) means "to help" while the second (倉) means "warehouse."
- Her last name can also be used as a first name.
- Her first name is written in hiragana which has no particular meaning. However, when written in kanji, it can mean "peach" (桃). Coincidentally Kyoko's name means "apricot", which is also a fruit similar to the peach.
- When she was younger she wore her short hair in a short ponytail. In the manga she is presented to be much older when she died, she wore her hair with braided twintails.
- She might be the witch Elsa Maria who Kyubey secretly made into a Puella Magi. This seems too unlikely, especially since Kyoko said, in Episode 7, that everyone but her in her family were killed.
- Her full name is revealed in the Drama CD 3. Much like Yuma, she refered to herself in the third person
- Momo may be named after the title character of Magical Princess Minky Momo, an early magical girl series. Although he claimed it wasn't an inspiration for Madoka, Producer Atsuhiro Iwakami has stated that he was fond of the show. It's also notable that the title character of Minky Momo actually died in a car accident (but was reincarnated).
- An anime design for Momo was drawn, but it was never used in the series. Instead, they used a stylized paper cutout to reenact Kyoko's backstory.
- The design later was used for Momo's appearances in Madoka Magica Portable.
Momo in Oriko Magica
She appears in a flashback, when Kyoko looks at Yuma and she is reminded of her little sister. She has long braided hair an appears to be a few years younger than Kyoko.
Momo in Different Story
In this version, Momo looks more younger, less mature looking and with shorter hair, with no pigtails. She is drawn differently than her manga counterpart in Oriko.
