Speculations and observations
- Elly was the name of Dorothy in the alternate retelling of Wizard of Oz
- Elly's initials (H.N.K.) is an anagram for N.H.K. Since the official card states that she is a hikikomori witch, that is a double link with the manga (and anime) Welcome to the NHK
- Elly's Grief seed is not shown directly after the fight in episode four. This, along with the small barrier size, lead many fans to believe that she was merely a familiar until the official website was updated with her details. The seed that Sayaka uses in episode six was probably Elly's. Also, chapter three of the manga clearly shows her dropping a seed although the design details are different, like all of the grief seeds in the manga version.
- The H.N. in Elly's name can stand for Handle Name, a term for nick name in Japan. This would mean her true name is Kirsten, while she referred to herself as Elly as her other identity on the internet, or maybe while she was still a magic girl.
- Elly said "It was very fun, let's go again. Next time with a Bentou" (今日は本当に楽しかったねえ、また行きたいね。今度はお弁当持って行こう) in reverse speech right before Madoka entered her barrier.
