Madoka Magica Portable Homura Route

The Destiny Could Be Changed(運命はきっと変えられる)

Summary

This route is unlocked after finishing Kyoko's route, or either Mami or Sayaka become a witch in their routes.

Homura, who has traveled many timelines, makes up her mind to save Madoka once again. However, Homura knows that by only protecting Madoka she won't be able to prevent Madoka's tragic fate from happening again. Homura now decides that she must try a different approach. Can Homura eventually save Madoka? Or even all of the magical girls in the story?

Story

Since there are many possibilities, all depending on the player's choice, it might not be proper to write a single storyline. It might be better written as "what happens when what decision is made" form.

Also, since there are only a few endings, you may feel that some of them to be strange since the conditions you choose and play through do not match that ending. For example, when nobody becomes a witch, Kyubey may still explain the energy conversion process to Madoka, and Madoka is already aware that magical girls become witches.

Warning, this section contains spoilers.

Homura, who has already traveled through and experienced many timelines, resolves to save Madoka once again. She goes to shopping mall, intending to prevent Madoka from falling into Gertrud's barrier. However, Kyubey comes, so she needs to decide whether to shoot him or to capture him. The next afternoon, Homura feels asleep and has a dream. She dreams of the ending of third timeline in the anime, where she swears to prevent Madoka from contracting. After this, the story splits into two separate routes. Part 1A -- If you capture Kyubey on the first day. Kyubey speaks telepathically to Madoka and Sayaka and tells them to come to an abandoned building, so Homura follows them. When the office lady jumps off of the roof, Homura rescues her by using her time-stop ability. She then asks Madoka and Sayaka to go away and finishes Gertrud off herself. After this, Mami arrives and asks why Homura has arrived in Mitakihara. Kyubey then informs her that Homura is an 'irregular' magical girl whom he does not remember contracting. Mami wonders if Homura is there to take over her territory. Homura doesn't explain why she has arrived and just advises Mami to not believe in Kyubey. The next afternoon, Kyubey once again tries to lure Madoka and Sayaka into contracting with him by telepathically speaking to them. He says that Homura was able to save the woman from committing suicide because she was a magical girl. However, Homura arrives and so he gives up. She tells Madoka and Sayaka that to become a magical girl is to give up everything for a single wish. That evening, Homura visits Madoka to speak with her and warn her about becoming a magical girl, just as in episode one of the anime. Meanwhile, Kyubey tells Mami that Homura may be dangerous. He tells her that Homura may take over Mami's domain, or may even kill Madoka, who could potentially become Mami's partner, before she could make a contract. The next day, Kyubey tries to goad Mami into encouraging Madoka and Sayaka to contract. Although Mami insists that she shouldn't push them, she takes the two them out to lunch and explains magical girls to them during lunch. (At this time, both Madoka and Sayaka had no concept of what a magical girl was.) She then suggests to Madoka and Sayaka that, to experience what being a magical girl entails, they should go witch hunting with her. However, she is stopped by Homura. That night, Homura meets Madoka and Sayaka on the street and has dinner with them. Homura, in her own words, explains to them about magical girls. Two days later, Homura goes to the hospital and finds a grief seed. When she gets arrives in the witch's barrier, she recalls Mami's death by Charlotte in previous timelines. Traveling into the barrier, she finds Mami is also in the barrier. Although she suggests to Mami that they fight together, Mami, remembering what Kyubey had told her about Homura, doesn't believe her. At this point, the player will make a choice that will determine Mami's survival. 1. Let Mami hunt the witch herself. Mami goes away to fight Charlotte without tying Homura up. Homura then follows her and prevents her death. Mami, who can't believe that she is still alive, thanks Homura for saving her life. Homura tells Mami that her wish is to save her only friend, since magical girls are lonely and often friendless. Homura then makes a magical girl combination with Mami, and tells Mami she is preparing for Walpurgis. 2. Stop Mami. Go Part 2. Part 1B -- To shoot Kyubey on day one. Although Homura Shoot Kyubey, another body comes soon after that, then he is found by Madoka, as in the anime. Then the story is also similar to what anime shows. But like part 1A, Homura also has a chance to prevent Mami from death, if she let Mami go without herself being tied by Mami. Although Homura suggests Mami to hunt witches with her instead of Madoka and Sayaka earlier, in Charlotte's barrier, Mami's reply is veto. At one night, Homura finds Hitomi visiting Kyousuke. Soon after they are talking, however, Sayaka comes so Hitomi gives up and returns home. Part 2 Note: Since Mami may die in either Part 1A or 1B, please ignore Mami's part if Mami is dead. The story otherwise is the same. The next evening, Homura goes to hospital, where she meets a depressed Sayaka, asking why Kyousuke had such a devastating accident. Homura recalls that Sayaka made her contract for Kyousuke, and advises her not to try and obtain a miracle to heal his hand, or she will pay an unbearable price. However, Sayaka doesn't understand what Homura is telling her and leaves. 1. Homura decides to follow Sayaka. In this case, Homura sees Kyubey trying to convince Sayaka into contracting. Homura stops time to get close to Sayaka so she can stop her from contracting. After hearing Homura's advice, Sayaka thinks that there might be other ways to heal Kyousuke's hand and goes away. Kyubey complains that Homura is always disturbing him but he believes Homura won't always be able to succeed in what she's trying to do. Homura wonders why there are no witch sightings lately and realizes that someone else must be hunting them. Homura discovers that the one responsible for the decrease in witches is Kyoko. Kyoko had been filled in about all the recent events by Kyubey. Kyoko suggests to Homura to cooperate with her in order defeat Mami for territory rights and share the grief seeds they would obtain from Mitakihara's witches. Homura refuses this offer, explaining that she is not interested in obtaining domains. Kyoko then warns Homura not disturb her or she will be hostile. At night, however, Homura meets Kyoko once more. She tells Kyoko that she doesn't think that Kyoko's actions are wrong, and suggests that Kyoko reconsider cooperating with her. The next day, Homura finds a witch in a factory. When she gets close, she finds that Madoka and Hitomi are there, along with other people attempting to commit mass suicide. She transforms into a magical girl and throws the detergent away, then asks Madoka to leave. She then fights the witch with Mami, if she is alive. The next afternoon, Homura investigates Sayaka and Madoka. Nothing seems to be unusual so her fears are absolved. After school, she goes to Mami's apartment to eat some of Mami's cake. Mami is very happy to have a new partner, although Homura feels guilty because she knows that she is just using Mami. Meanwhile, Kyoko sees Tatsuya and his father playing in the park. Seeing them play together makes her recall when she was a child. After a while, she returns to the hotel she is staying in. Sayaka visits Kyousuke in the evening and Homura follows her. When Homura comes to the hospital, however, she sees Kyousuke is about to suicide by jumping off the roof of the hospital. She saves Kyousuke and has him brought back to Sayaka. Homura then decides to have someone take care of Sayaka. 1. Homura has Madoka take care of Sayaka. Homura thinks it better to talk to Madoka, but she doesn't talk about Kyousuke's suicide. The Madoka says that Hitomi seems to know a doctor who might be able to heal Kyousuke's arm. Go to Part 3B. 2. Homura takes care of Sayaka herself. After pacifying Kyousuke, Sayaka leaves his room and runs into Homura. She blames herself for not doing anything for Kyousuke. Sayaka asks Homura to relax as she won't be making a contract. Homura, thinking everything is safe, leaves. The next day, however, Kyubey informs her that Sayaka made a contract with him last night and impudently thanks her. Meanwhile, Sayaka is talking with Madoka. She tells Madoka that it feels good to have the strength to protect the people dear to her. Because Madoka is beginning to worry about Sayaka, Kyubey tries to get close to Madoka to convince her to contract. However, Homura discovers this and shoots Kyubey just in time to prevent Madoka from contracting. Because Sayaka is already a magical girl, all Homura can do is to try to prevent her from becoming a witch. If Sayaka makes a contract, go part 3A. Otherwise, go part 3B. Part 3A -- Sayaka contracts That evening, Homura meets Sayaka, who is fighting familiars. Sayaka seems unfriendly to Homura because she believes that she (Sayaka) is an ally of justice. Homura decides she might not have anything to do for Sayaka, so she meets Madoka, who is worried about Sayaka. Their talk is similar to what occurs in episode five; however, this time, Homura promises to take care of Sayaka, along with Mami. She also tells Madoka not to contract once more. After this, Homura goes to Mami's place to suggest to Mami that she should cooperate with Kyoko. Mami worries about Kyoko being unfriendly to her because they have unpleasant past, but Homura says Mami shouldn't give up on having a relationship with Kyoko. Homura finds the barrier of the scribbing witch's (Albertine's) familiars, and discovers Sayaka and Kyoko fighting within it. Even worse, Madoka is also present, so she goes to separate them. She then asks Madoka to bring the hurt Sayaka away and then asks Kyoko for her opinion. Kyoko says she has no interest in fighting familiars so she leaves everything o Homura. Homura then fights the familiars. Homura is still anxious so she visits both Sayaka and Kyoko to advise them not to fight; however, they both disagree. (When Mami is alive) The next evening, Homura finds Madoka coming to her for help. Kyoko and Sayaka are fighting on the overpass. When Homura arrives, Mami is also there, and she asks Kyoko to fight against herself instead of Sayaka. Although Mami has much more firepower, Kyoko aims at her soul gem so it drops on a truck. Because her soul gem contains her actual soul, Mami becomes lifeless. Homura runs after the truck to retrieve Mami's soul gem. Kyubey explains what happened to all of them when they contacted and reveals the truth behind soul gems. Homura takes Mami's soul gem back to her so she returns to life. Although everyone is shocked, Kyoko and Mami think more deeply about the circumstances and accept their fate; however, Sayaka is left alone. Th next morning, Homura goes to Mami's apartment. Mami confesses to her that she doesn't know what she can believe, because Kyubey lied to and cheated her. Homura comforts her and tells her that she is not alone. There are many other magical girls and she hopes everyone can overcome such sorrowful conditions. She then goes to Kyoko's place to check Kyoko's condition. Kyoko tells Homura that it isn't necessary to worry about her, and asks Homura to take care of Sayaka instead. That afternoon, Hitomi takes Sayaka out to confess something to her (her feelings for Kyousuke). Although Homura knows what will happen occur during their meeting, she is unable to intervene. Sayaka doesn't listen to either Homura nor Madoka and Sayaka tells Homura to leave her alone. Homura finds Madoka having argument with Hitomi. Hitomi refuses Madoka's suggestions and leaves. Madoka wonders if Sayaka doesn't accept her words because she isn't a magical girl. Homura corrects her and tells her that Sayaka won't accept words even from a magical girl. The only thing Madoka can do is watch. Kyoko calls Homura to her father's (former) church. She confides in Homura that she doesn't want her father's church to be destroyed because of Walpurgis because it is a place she has fond memories of. Sayaka may be the reason her feelings have reemerged. She then accepts a cooperation with Homura. The next day, Homura has an operational meeting to discuss Walpurgis. Kyoko is astonished to find that Mami also has entered into a cooperation with Homura, but she later agrees that the more magical girls there are, the higher their chance of winning against Walpurgis. However, Kyubey interrupts them, informing them that Sayaka is in a dangerous condition, as in the anime. Sayaka bitterly fights against a witch. Kyoko comes to assist her in defeating the witch, but afterwards Sayaka throws the witch's grief seed to Kyoko, as in the anime. She then leaves by herself. Meanwhile, Homura is busy searching for Sayaka but her efforts are in. Even Madoka doesn't know where Sayaka is. 1. Search for Sayaka with Kyoko. Homura goes to an observatory to find Kyoko, who is also searching for Sayaka. Kyoko confesses her true feelings to Homura and they eventually find Sayaka. As in anime, Sayaka initially doesn't trust Homura or Sayaka, but after Kyoko reveals her past to Sayaka and tells her that she can fight for the sake of all of those in Mitakihara, Sayaka eventually opens her heart and agrees to fight alongside Kyoko, Homura, and Mami. After this, Homura remembers that Madoka is worried about Sayaka. She then finds Madoka, who is talking to Kyubey. Just before Madoka can make a contract, Homura tells Madoka that Sayaka has been found. She also mentions that Madoka should thank Kyoko. The next day, Homura is happy to see Sayaka returning to her normal self and seeing Madoka's smile. However, she also understands she must prepare for Walpurgis so she holds another meeting after class. Kyubey comes to Madoka's house and tells her the history of magical girls and witches and the theory of energy transformation. Madoka visits Homura because she is worried about her and the other girls. Homura acts the same way as she did in the anime, hugging Madoka and confessing her true identity. Walpurgis comes to Mitakihara and all of the magical girls are ready to fight. Madoka arrives as well, wishing to be of help to everyone. Homura then tells Madoka and everyone else that the very person she wishes to save and who she contracted for is Madoka. Everything is meaningless for Homura if something bad happens to Madoka. Madoka then leaves them and prays for everyone's safety and the fight begins against Walpurgis. After defeating Walpurgis, Madoka meets up with the others and sees everyone is severely wounded which worries her. However, Homura tells her it's okay because they are all alive and can cure themselves with magic. Sometime later, on the way to school, Sayaka mentions that the number of witches has severely declined recently. When Madoka asks if any problems would arise because there are an insufficient number of grief seeds, Homura answers her that there are still plenty of grief seeds the girls have stockpiled away and because there are so fewer witches, the magical girls are using much less magic and don't need to clean their soul gems as often. Mami holds a tea party, claiming it is going to be an operational meeting. Everyone goes to Mami's tea party and Sayaka forces Kyoko to put on one of Mami's spare school uniforms. The scenario ends with a picture of the girls having their tea party, with the line 'This is my prayer, my wish...' written in English appearing on the screen. Part 3B -- Sayaka is not contracted The next day, Hitomi says that her father know a doctor from USA, who has cured a musician's hand. Maybe she can help. It seems that there's no need to contract with Kyubey. But since Sayaka doesn't know Hitomi's feelings, Homura still think it necessary to keep an eye on her. Coming soon.
