[[File:KyoSaya.jpg|thumb|right|Kamijou and Sayaka during childhood, from a magazine]]
[[File:KyoFamily.jpg|thumb|right|Kamijou's family]]
==Official Info==
Childhood friend of [[Sayaka Miki|Sayaka]].  A violin prodigy, but an accident left him unable to play ever again. Sayaka and Hitomi have crushes on him.
== Trivia ==
<blockquote>''" I don't want to listen to anymore! It's all Music that I can't play! "'' ~ Kyousuke Kamijou, [[Episode 4]].</blockquote>
*He is the violinist who appears with Sayaka in the OP.
*[[Episode 1]]: [[Madoka Kaname|Madoka]] guesses that he is the reason Sayaka wants to go to the CD store.
*[[Episode 2]]: He is shown bedridden in the hospital when Sayaka comments that there must be many who would trade their lives for a wish and that life has been too easy for her.
*[[Episode 3]]: Sayaka visits him in the hospital twice.  At the start of the episode, Sayaka gives Kamijou a CD by David Ostriakh, and they share his headphones and listen to Rachmaninoff's "Vocalise" together.  Kamijou fingers the notes as he listens and then he cries.  Later, Sayaka tries to visit him but is turned away; the explanation given by Kamijou's family is that he isn't in good shape.  Madoka and Sayaka then find a [[Grief seed]] embedded outside the hospital.
*[[Episode 4]]: Sayaka visits him in the hospital and tries to talk with him about music, but he accuses her of mocking his inability to play the violin anymore. He reveals that the current state of medicine is incapable of healing his left hand, saying that it would take a miracle or magic for him to play again. It is revealed at the end of the episode that Sayaka used her wish to heal his left hand, in exchange becoming a magical girl for [[Kyubey]].
*[[Episode 5]]: Kamijou regains the ability to play the violin after Sayaka's wish repairs his hand. She claims it to be the "happiest moment of her life"
*[[Episode 6]]: Sayaka goes to visit him at the hospital, but is informed that he was discharged and didn't inform Sayaka. She goes to visit him at his house and she hears him practicing his violin. She is about to enter when she is confronted by Kyouko who criticize her for making a selfless wish for his sake and speculate that she should've crippled him futher. (unbeknownst to everyone yet, Kyouko did make a selfless wish herself, but it only brought tragedy)
*[[Episode 7]]: Kamijou returns to school, but still needs crutches.
*[[Episode 8]]: [[Hitomi Shizuki|Hitomi]] speaks to Kamijou. It's still not known what she exactly told him.
[[File:Maybe_kamijou.jpg|thumb|220px|right|Kamijou in Sayaka's flashback.]] In the manga version of [[Episode 8]], however, it does look like Kyousuke accepts Hitomi's feelings as they're seen holding each other's hands. 
* [[Episode 12]]: Kyousuke briefly appears while Sayaka and Madoka's souls watch over him (and Hitomi waits for him at the side) as he performs during an audition. As he plays Gounod's Ave Maria, Sayaka and Madoka talk things over one last time, and are able to pass on. Later, Kamijou performs as a professional, and once he finishes his recital he whispers Sayaka's name.
 
==Speculations and Observations==
*Kamijou has been confirmed as Sayaka's crush, and is her childhood friend. How she met Kamijou is unknown, but perhaps she has only been able to spend more time with him after his injury. She bought the disc for Kamijou.
*Kamijou was a famous violinist that Sayaka admires. However, for some reason, he had to be hospitalized and couldn't play the violin anymore. Upon getting her wish, Sayaka then feels guilty to be so lucky and thinks about him and his misfortune.
*In Episode 3, [[Mami Tomoe|Mami]] warns Sayaka that there is a difference between wanting to grant another's wish, and wanting to be the person to grant another's wish. This is possibly foreshadowing to negative consequences that will happen if Sayaka makes her wish to help Kamijou regain his health. It ended up playing into the events that lead to Sayaka becoming a witch: Kamijou, once he is healed, presumably begins a relationship with Hitomi because she openly showed her feelings to him, which breaks Sayaka who felt that she wouldn't be able to do so due to her Magical Girl condition.
*Japanese spelling of Kamijou was initially 上條. But in the ending credits of episode 7 and after, it was changed to 上条. Both are common Japanese surnames with the same pronunciation and similar meaning, so that it doesn't seem to have any importance for the story. The change was also made in AT-X version of episode 4.
 
==Kamijou's Feeling Towards Sayaka==
[[Talk:Translated_Official_Documents#June_2011|An article]] indicates that that from the very beginning Kamijou only considered Sayaka as his close friend, he never had any romantic feelings for her. He never considered her to be a potential lover partner. It is for this reason that he failed to notify Sayaka when he was discharged from the hospital, he was in a hurry to get back to his normal life that he never had any thoughts of anything else. When Kyousuke goes back to school he is already surrounded by other girls and friends, which is why he doesnt say anything to Sayaka as he is already overwhelmed by a welcoming crowd. It never occurred to him that there could be something special between him and Sayaka.
 
There's no explanation regarding Kamijou's feeling towards [[Hitomi Shizuki|Hitomi]] before she tells him.
