==Summary==
A mysterious magical girl who transferred to Kaname Madoka's class. In order to save Madoka from her despairing destiny, she repeats the same period, aiming at defeating 'Walpurgisnacht' without anyone's help. She belongs to a different timeline than the Homura headed to Kamihama City.

===Doppel Description===
[[File:Homura_doppel_sprite.png|thumb|right|150px|Homulily, Homura's doppel]]
The Doppel of Karma. Its form is the mortal world. The master of this emotion visits many worlds in search of an exit, spinning giant threads of fate. Fourteen incomplete bodies born from emotion trail behind the master's body, which has almost completely transformed into glass. In order to achieve their mission, these 14 bodies work methodically and tirelessly to remove obstacles. Regardless of their master's will, they weave the threads of fate, which become tangled in ever more complex patterns, driving her yet further into a maze, the exit of which can hardly be found. These bodies of emotion have no names.

===Side Story===
{{Spoilerbox|
Homura looks on as [[Madoka Kaname]] makes her contract with Kyubey and becomes [[Ultimate Madoka in Magia Record|Ultimate Madoka]]. Homura then finds herself in an star-filled cosmos as the universe rewrites itself according to Madoka's new rules. Madoka thanks Homura for all she did trying to protect her and then bids Homura goodbye. 

Homura and Kyubey watch as the universe rewrites itself. While Kyubey didn't ask to be there, it finds what's happening in front of them interesting. Homura watches as different colored glowing orbs appear then fade away. Kyubey doesn't know what they are when Homura asks him about it. She reaches out and touches one and finds herself viewing the first timeline she lived through, from when she first met Madoka at school all the way to when Madoka sacrificed herself to defeat Walpurgisnacht and Homura first formed her contract. 

In the "present", Kyubey asks Homura what she saw. Homura explains how she relived memories of the first world and how everything began. Kyubey finds this interesting and wonders if Homura will relive another memory if she touches another orb. Homura reaches out and touches a different colored orb. Almost immediately she relives the day that Madoka transformed into [[Kriemhild Gretchen]]. Back in the "present", Homura and Kyubey come to the conclusion that each orb is an event that happened in a different parallel world. As each orb is absorbed by Ultimate Madoka and transformed into a new world without Witches, it disappears from their view. Soon, a rather large orb begins to float toward them and soon it engulfs the two. 

Homura relives the time she revealed the truth about Witches to the rest of the Holy Quintet only for Sayaka and the others to turn against her when they didn't believe her, until Sayaka herself became a Witch. Homura continues to watch the old timeline as they fight and defeat Oktavia only for Mami to snap and kill Kyoko before turning her sights on Homura. Madoka kills Mami in order to protect Homura, leaving only the two of them to defeat Walpurgisnacht. With the two of them dying and on the verge of Witching out themselves, Madoka uses Sayaka's Grief Seed on Homura before asking her to go back in time and prevent her from ever contracting. Madoka also asks Homura to kill her before she transforms into a Witch. 

As the memory ends, Kyubey asks if Homura viewed her memories of another timeline. Homura confirms this, and describes it as the defining moment in her life. After that, she took it upon herself to fulfill her promise to Madoka, but even after going back in time countless times, she was still too weak to defeat Walpurgisnacht by herself. She thinks back on the Magical Girls she couldn't save and what they meant to her: Mami, Sayaka, and Kyoko. Kyubey asks if she doesn't have any regrets about not being able to save them. As they watch, the colored orbs of those sad worlds fade away. Homura realizes that Madoka has changed the fate of those worlds so that Witches will not exist there anymore. Homura tells Kyubey that she has no regrets since their wishes will no longer end in regret thanks to Madoka's wish.  

As the two continue to watch the universe rewrite itself, Kyubey notices that one of the orbs appears unstable and is coming toward them. Homura finds herself inside the Mirror Witch's labyrinth. As she looks around, she sees a giant soul gem that resembles her own approaching her. The soul gem begins to absorb her existence and Homura soon begins to relive the memories of a "self" that she doesn't remember: the Homura of the Magia Record universe. She watches the memories of a braided Homura talking to Madoka about Kamihama. In the memory, Mami approaches them and warns them of the dangers of Kamihama City. Homura's consciousness awakens back in the Mirror Witch's labyrinth and realizes that she doesn't remember Kamihama City at all despite these memories being her own. 
Her consciousness is currently trapped in the Mirror labyrinth as she continues to relive the memories of a Homura from a parallel world. In the memories, Mami explains there are Rumors and Uwasa in Kamihama that make it so dangerous. The braided Homura begs Mami to let her help investigate Kamihama, but Mami forbids her and Madoka from helping as they're not ready yet. After Madoka begs her once more, Mami relents and allows them to join her. The memories continue, as Homura and Madoka help Iroha against the Rumor of the Anonymous A.I. and battle with Alina. Homura watches the memories unfold as she ponders the truth behind Doppels and wonders if they are what her other self was investigating. She chides her past self for wanting to save Madoka by working with and helping other magical girls when she herself had been let down by others so many times. She believes that her other self should have been preparing for her inevitable fight against Walpurgisnacht rather than wasting time on anyone who isn't Madoka. Her other self is doing everything that the current Homura wouldn't do, including working with others as well as trying to find a way to keep Madoka from becoming a Witch since she had already contracted in this world. 

Homura becomes aware that Kyubey has followed her into this realm, though not by his choice. He asks Homura what she saw, and when she describes it to him, he deduces that the two consciousnesses are resonating with each other. Even though the two Homuras are walking different paths, they're still the same person. Kyubey wonders when the two Homuras became different existences, and asks Homura to try to "remember" further back in time using the memories of the braided Homura to see when the two timelines began to diverge. Homura is able to recall when the braided Homura contracted, which is identical to her own memory. She then recalls the first time Madoka became a Witch and finds the two memories to be the same. When she recalls the following timeline when she woke up and realized Kyubey had tricked them, the braided Homura of this universe didn't tell the others because she didn't think they would believe her. Homura realizes that this is the point when the two of them diverged. Since the braided Homura never told the others the truth about where Witches came from, she never had to live through the experience of Mami killing Kyoko, or Madoka asking Homura to kill her after promising to prevent her from contracting. It was because of those tragic events that Homura decided to never rely on anyone else ever again. But her other self never experienced those tragic events, and so she had continued to search for a way to save Madoka by repeatedly traveling back in time until on one occasion she entered Kamihama City. 

Homura continued to search through her other self's memories and found that in each timeloop she stayed in Mitakihara searching for a way to save Madoka. But then for some unknown reason, something different happened: within her frozen time, she was approached by an unknown magical girl who claimed that fates could be changed in Kamihama City. That is when she learned about Uwasa and fought the Wings of Magius. Kyubey doesn't remember anything like that in the Kamihama he remembers and is certain that Homura would have investigated Kamihama had anything unusual been happening in any of her timeloops considering it was an event that was too big to ignore. Too many strange phenomena have been occurring in the Kamihama of this timeline, but ONLY in this timeline. Kyubey asks if Homura noticed any differences in the different timelines she lived through, even if they were very tiny. Homura asks what the difference is. Kyubey believes that every time Homura went back in time, she caused tiny ripples in space and time which may have resulted in a butterfly effect. When Iroha accidentally kicked a pebble in this universe, it caused an untold number of effects that resulted in the irregular situation of Kamihama. In this world, it could cause a girl who would normally not contract to meet with Kyubey. Then those small changes would grow and expand into the large irregularity that is this timeline. All those little ripples and changes resulted in the creation of a parallel world that should never have existed. Because the orb was so unstable, Kyubey is certain that Madoka won't be able to interfere in this irregular world until it comes to its natural conclusion since it's a world that shouldn't have existed. 

As Homura ponders this, she's flooded with more memories from her other self as she and the others gear up for their fight against Walpurgisnacht. The braided Homura had learned to accept help from everyone else to find a path to salvation. As she relives her memories, Homura wonders if maybe there is a real possibility for salvation in this timeline. One she couldn't see where no one has to be sacrificed in order to save Madoka. Even so, this Homura believes it has nothing to do with her. Homura breaks out of the labyrinth and the dream ends. Homura and Kyubey find themselves back in the empty cosmos where the universe is rewriting itself. Because Homura stopped the dream prematurely, her and Kyubey were not able to see the conclusion to that world. Kyubey asks if she wasn't curious about what happened to her other self. Homura believes it doesn't matter since she's going to believe in what Madoka said: that she would never let Homura's efforts be in vain. Either way, a new universe is about to be born and Homura must continue to protect this new universe for the sake of Madoka. As the universe finishes rewriting itself, Kyubey states they will both forget about Madoka Kaname but Homura is determined to never forget her. 

As she finds herself in the new universe where Witches don't exist, Kyoko is surprised to find that Sayaka has disappeared. Mami explains that the Law of Cycles causes Magical Girls to disappear when they lose hope and turn to despair. Homura sheds some tears as she remembers Madoka, but neither Mami nor Kyoko know who Madoka is.
