'''Homura and Madoka'''


Homura: I had a very scary dream.
Moved to [[The Rebellion Story/Transcript]] - [[User:Prima|Prima]] 02:38, 12 November 2013 (UTC)
 
==First impressions, no sound==
DAMN! This thing was epic even tough I watched on mute, Homura's insanity cannot be truly conceived until you see her expressions, she got more derranged expressions than Yuno Gasai!
 
Seriously tough, Homulilly is damn similar to Walpurgis Night, I think they were hinting that somehow she is the core of her nemesis or the title of Walpurgis is passed down to a new witch after the previous one is defeated.


Madoka: A scary dream?
That or Homura became a Walpurgis fascimile because in her mind that is the worst thing in the world. --[[User:Derp101(3)|Derp101(3)]] 23:54, 12 November 2013 (UTC)


Homura: In that dream Madoka went to a place far away, a place that I could never reach. I was the only one who remembered Madoka, I was lonely and in pain. However no else understood my feeling. In the end I doubted whether or not the Madoka I remembered ever existed in the first place or just that something I imagined.
: Good point about Homulilly.  I remember that Gen once mentioned in an interview that he imagined Walpurginacht as a Godzilla-like creature in the original script, hence:
<blockquote> "Homura watches with anticipation for the result, but the Walpurgisnacht's tail pops out from the black smoke. A direct hit from its tail sends Homura flying." - [[The Beginning Story: Episode 11]]. </blockquote>
: - [[User:Prima|Prima]] 00:12, 13 November 2013 (UTC)


Madoka: That is a very painful dream, however don't worry, i would never go away and leave you alone.
==Summary from 4chan==
The Incubators set up an experiment to observe and interfere with the Law of Cycles. The core of their plan was to imprison Homura's soul gem in an isolation field and hold her just on the brink of witching out, so as to lure the Law of Cycles into their trap.


Homura: How can you be so certain?
This caused Homura to unknowingly create a labyrinth inside her soul gem. This is the dream world where most of the movie takes place.


Madoka: Because it's me. If that it's something that even Homura-chan started to cry about, I would never be able to endure it.
Madokami hid her memories and Law of Cycles powers in Sayaka and Nagisa (Bebe) to throw the Incubators off track. When the trio entered Homura's barrier, it changed Madoka back into a living being.


Homura: That is also something that is unbearable to you?
Nobody told Homura about Madokami's plan, so she figured it was up to her alone to save Madoka. So she decides to deliberately force herself to become a witch, so that Mami and Kyouko will kill her, which would dissolve her labyrinth and thus free Madoka.


Madoka: That is right, Homura-chan Sayaka-chan, Mami-san, Kyouko-chan, papa, mama, Tatsuya and Hitomi-chan and the rest of the class, I don't want to part with any of you. Even if that is something I must do, I would not have the courage to go through when the time comes.
However, by this point Sayaka and Nagisa have explained Madokami's plan to the other girls. So they fight their way through Homulilly's familiars to give Madoka a chance to save Homura (snap her out of her witch state). This is possible because Homura's real soul gem is still intact in the real world (thanks to the Incubators' isolation field).


Homura: Ah... is that so.... are these your true feelings then? Then I was a fool to have misunderstood it. I should not have approved. I should have used every possible mean to stop you back then. Madoka... I know.. that you are kind to everyone and not afraid of making choices. When you feel that there is something that only you can do, you would not hesitate even if it means hurting yourself.
Sayaka et al. attack Homura's barrier, exposing the Incubators in the real world. Then Madoka and Homura hit the Incubators with some kind of combination arrow-storm attack, which destroys the isolation field.


Madoka: Homura-chan?
Now back in the real world, restored Madokami comes with Sayaka & Nagisa to take Homura off to Yuri Valhalla. However, Homura has other plans. The lily field conversation plus Kyubey's statements about wanting to capture/control Madoka (and maybe also other things depending on how you interpret her character) convinced Homura that she was wrong to give up on her "save Madoka" obsession. So she basically tries to replicate the Incubators' experiment in the real world.


Homura: As I thought... you didn't remember it. Once I thought you were just a mirage... a construct made by someone else. How else would I have been able to meet you again like this? But I know, you definitely are the real Madoka. I am really happy, to be able to speak to you again, to be able to feel your gentleness like this once more. Thank you, this is more than enough happiness for me. I need to go now, there are still much to be done.
First she deliberately overloads her soul gem with her intense love for Madoka. In the old universe, this probably would have turned her into a witch, but since Madoka's wish does not allow for any witch to actually be born...


Homura changes Madokami's form back into Madoka (basically repeating what had happened in the dream world). She overwrites reality and then engulfs the universe in her labyrinth. Then she manually shatters her soul gem and creates something new: a soul orb. That is what triggers the Akuma transformation.


'''Kyubey's Experiment'''
In Homura's new world:
Madoka is alive again. Sayaka and Nagisa are stranded in the physical world. The Incubators are working for Homura.


QB:Even though you shouldnt have wanted to know the truth, but you can't help but chase after it. Human curiosity is really illogical. Well, I have long thought that you would have found the answer, Akemi Homura.

This is what is beyond the boundary of this fake Mitakihara, your condition in the real world.

QB: We created a barrier field surronding your soul gem that prevented all intereference from outside. What will happen when we seal off a soul gem that is darkened to the limit?
:About comparing Homura to Lucifer, I noticed that the list left out one version of his story I was taught; The reason Lucifer was so upset was because he did not agree with God's plan to sacrifice Jesus. Lucifer was appalled at the thought that God would not only lower himself to become human, but to willingly allow himself to be tortured  and crucified was more than he could stand. This version of the story would seem to support the comparison of Homura to Lucifer. --theInsaneArtist [[Special:Contributions/173.65.223.192|173.65.223.192]] 02:08, 7 June 2014 (UTC)


Homura: An experiment.....
== Edit War ==


QB: When we isolate it from the power that purifies and ascends magic girls, the power that you called 'laws of cycle' then what will happen to the soul gem? The resulting observation is indeed rather fascinating. An isolated dimension was formed with its own independent law that seeks to guide and capture victims from the outside... This match what you have previously explained, the power of a 'witch'. So long as you are protected by the isolation field, then you would not become a full 'witch'. Like a chick who grew up within its own shell. That is why you formed a labryinth within. It's quite shocking that it is fully capable of replicating and reproducing an entire city. This place we are at right now, is a world existing solely within your own soul gem.
I don't have a dog in this fight over whether there'll be a sequel or not, but the edit war on this page has become very silly and pointless. Can we act like adults here?


Homura: That is quite a strange logic, if it's isolated from the outside world. Then it should not possible for someone to enter the labyrinth.
How about instead of edit and reverting that part of the page on daily basis, we discuss about this apparantly controversial point in the talk page first?  In the meantime, I suggest we remove the particular paragraph until some kind of consensus is reached.


QB: That is due to our adjustment. The isolation field will only stop interference from one direction. Even though it will reject all attempts from the outside, it is still possible to guide a victim in from the inside. Only targets that your witch side unconsciously seeks will enter this world. After such limitation, if the force known as 'law of cycle' seeks to contact Akemi Homura still. Then the only way it will enter is through being captured by the labyrinth as a victim and be forced to materialize in this world. In that case, us Incubator will then finally be able to ascertain the puzzle behind magic girl's disappearance, and observe it directly. In fact, the characters that existed in the real world already joined in strange ways. What is more fascinating, a girl that neither existed in past memory nor future possibility, someone who should have no connection, no cause or effect to this world, joined seemlessly in your world. Well, there was never any need to search, from the begining you have made things easier for us, Akemi Homura. Even before this all started, you have always called the 'law of cycles' by the name of Kaname Madoka.
Whoever that cares about that particular passage - about whether there'll be a sequel/whether it's in the works/etc - please post you views, evidence, and reasoning here so we can discuss it properly. - [[User:Prima|Prima]] 04:02, 26 December 2013 (UTC)
: My issue isn't the passage itself, but that the person who keeps adding it displays poor grammar and a mocking tone - in short, they're making me think they're a troll.--[[User:Universalperson|Universalperson]] 13:10, 26 December 2013 (UTC)


Homura: Then she is really..
==Nietzsche==
Nietzsche is such a difficult subject, tried my best on it. if someone wants to make changes to it, go ahead... --[[User:Mutopis|Mutopis]] 12:27, 13 January 2014 (UTC)


QB: The only troublesome point was that, it does not appear that Kaname Madoka possess any unique power. It seems that the memory control effect produced by the labryinth is effective even against Madoka. Not only has she forgot the purpose of providing salvation to you, she even forgot her true identity and power. As such we had no way of progression.
== Rebellion!Homura nicknames ==


QB: Kaname Madoka forgot her identity as goddess, Akemi Homura forgot her identity as 'witch'. Due to this circumstance we are forced to run around in circle meaninglessly. Well, even though we were intending on waiting for the chick to break its shell, but since now that you have come to the truth, it should make things easier to upset the status quo. Now then Akemi Homura, just seek the help of Madoka, that way she will remember her own identiy, and the reason why she came here.
I suggest Akumura, since that also fits with her Moemura nickname. ^.^;; [[Special:Contributions/67.246.60.56|67.246.60.56]] 11:36, 29 January 2014 (UTC)

In light of avoiding an edit war, I would like to dispute the entry from [[Special:Contributions/85.17.164.121|85.17.164.121]]. It's poorly written, not backed up by the source material, and the edit comments don't make any sense. -- [[User:Universalperson|Universalperson]] 19:41, 3 May 2014 (UTC)
:This is the only thing from the Rebellion Material Book page that I could find that makes any reference to any potential sequels:


Homura: Why? For beings who speak of mere curiosity as illogical, why would you go through the trouble of setting up all this to merely ascertain an existence? No, what you seek is to control Madoka!
:*'''About the ending, on one hand it seems as if the story is starting right there; on the other, with the god and demon being born, it can also seem as if the "myth of creation" type of story has ended.'''
:*SHINBO: Although that doesn't mean that there's another story coming; that ending on its own should just be seen as the conclusion to this story. It does seem as if the story has come to an end after achieving a mysterious kind of balance. Considering the fact that it's the sequel to the TV series, it's really not that far-fetched to say that we planned to end that way from the start.


QB: I wont deny that was our final goal. Well this is a difficult road in itself. The occurence itself is a puzzle to us completely, an existence that can not be ascertained is truly difficult to handle.

- Gen asks what are we going do to with Madoka next? He asks the audience to let him know what they think.
- The first guy asks if there is a magical girl from Madoka Magica that most describes your personality and why? Gen says Out of the five Kyouko, Madoka and Homura, he likes all three. Gen says it is too difficult to pick just one.
- Next guy asks about the mentions made in Nietzsche’s philosophy in the third Madoka movie, was there a a Nietzschean influence? Gen says he thinks that all the characters know their fate, they’re all doing it while knowing their destiny. It’s not sad, but they know what their fate is.
- Panel concludes with auctioning off of three signed Madoka Magica posters, which is determined by Gen playing rock paper scissors with the contestants. It is amazing. --[[User:Mutopis|Mutopis]] 14:45, 5 July 2014 (UTC)


QB: That is correct, if it can be observed , then it can be interfered with. If It can be interefered with, then it can be controled. One day we will be able to fully strip the power of 'law of cycles'. That way Magic girl will become witches once again, energy collection on a higher level then can be expected. The conversion of energy from hope to despair will be of a level beyond our expectation thus far. There truly exists infinite possibility within magic girls. From the process of you turning into witches, its value will then be shown.

Latest revision as of 02:13, 13 July 2014

Magic creating goddesses

I am starting to think that the Madoka verse is somehow tied to the Karma/Space-Time/Origin compression of Soul-Bond transdimensional network building through hard recurrence method.

  • The continuous process of soul recycling amongst parallel dimensions and timelines is a controlled process guided by a general set of laws designed to dillude karmic accumulation and ensure the eventual achievement of perfec happiness, enlightenment or nirvana.
  • However, any given set of rules cannot sustain itself in the face of a continuosly changing environment which inevitably stresses it's inherent flaws and loopholes. This in turn determines that at some point the system will find a rupture point that will lead to an accumulation of karmic energy in a single soul which potentially destabilizes the system toward destruction.
  • Under normal circumstances, the system flaw will be corrected because most distortions would fall short of the system's flexibily to work under stress and karmic rebounding would come to eliminate the distortion to preserve the system but there are ways to increase karmic accumulation beyond the system's capacity and henceforth triggering a fall.
  • Hard recurrence method occurs when a small rupture is repeated over and over under different parallel worlds to the point it begins forming a network of soul-bond energy which grows and potentializes itself beyond the systems security measures and creates enough "fuel" to create a new sustained soul cycle. It basically becomes a flaw so great that a new system needs to be build and the accumulated energy allows for it to happen.
  • Once such situation is reached, the rupture point just needs to be connected to the infinite outer dimensional stream of energy that the network will assimilate a portion of it, compress under the soul which caused the rupture and restructure itself into a new working system improved over the previous flaws. Take note that once that process happens, the soul is restructured to infinitely produce the same amount of energy as the one utilized in it's ascention, the person essentially becomes an extention of the infinite stream governing a part of it's power under it's will.
  • By all accounts, said process is irreversible as an infinite source of energy cannot be erased, depleted or returned since the affected soul is an extension of the stream and not someone who borrows it's power.
  • In the odd case a turnover of system cycles happens to clash with one another, the soul controlling the previous system will be placed into an obervant/consultive role whereas direct command will be given to the bearer of the new one as to prevent previous improvements from being hampered while guaranteeing the continuation of the system improvement cycle.
  • If a peaceful coexistence between the previous and the current system becomes impossible, the innevitable points of rupture that arise will guarantee the ascention of a third party that will sanate said points of rupture and assume authority over the previous conflicting souls.
  • The cycles will happen as many times as necessary under different systems until a completely sustainable working model can be achieved and all souls find happiness. --Derp101(3) 16:39, 26 October 2013 (UTC)

Opinions

Isn't it better to leave the opinions outside of the actual information page? Such as that part were it says "but what type of love? selfish love" or where it says "Madoka is literally a prisoner of Homura's love"? -Hoshiko 05:52, 27 October 2013 (UTC)

I kinda feel grim for the future of this franchise -- with change for (forced) continuation's sake and all that(Urobochi might enjoy writing with new ideas to torture audiences nonethless, but it wouldn't be the case had the Director and Producer never came up with those ideas). If the new series or sequel ends so catastrophic such as the universe ends up being destroyed, it would make the series even LESS spectacular(in my opinion anyway), because space/time/universes are being so cheap nowadays 1.161.36.244 12:55, 30 October 2013 (UTC) An Outsider Audience

Nietzsche is such a difficult subject, tried my best on it. if someone wants to make changes to it, go ahead... --Mutopis 12:27, 13 January 2014 (UTC)

Rebellion!Homura nicknames

I suggest Akumura, since that also fits with her Moemura nickname. ^.^;; 67.246.60.56 11:36, 29 January 2014 (UTC)

85.17.164.121 entry

In light of avoiding an edit war, I would like to dispute the entry from 85.17.164.121. It's poorly written, not backed up by the source material, and the edit comments don't make any sense. -- Universalperson 19:41, 3 May 2014 (UTC)

This is the only thing from the Rebellion Material Book page that I could find that makes any reference to any potential sequels:
  • About the ending, on one hand it seems as if the story is starting right there; on the other, with the god and demon being born, it can also seem as if the "myth of creation" type of story has ended.
  • SHINBO: Although that doesn't mean that there's another story coming; that ending on its own should just be seen as the conclusion to this story. It does seem as if the story has come to an end after achieving a mysterious kind of balance. Considering the fact that it's the sequel to the TV series, it's really not that far-fetched to say that we planned to end that way from the start.

This isn't the same as what the anon is saying though. Can I remove it?--Universalperson 19:02, 4 May 2014 (UTC)
I think you and the anon should discuss it here first before any action is taken. I understand what you mean, but I would like to hear his input as well so as to not cause any further edit-warring. -ANTHONY 23:00, 4 May 2014 (UTC)
It looks like they aren't going to say anything. --Universalperson 02:59, 13 May 2014 (UTC)

Anime Expo 2014 Day 1: Gen Urobuchi and Nitro+

http://mygeekreview.com/anime-expo-2014-day-1-gen-urobuchi-and-nitro/ - Gen asks what are we going do to with Madoka next? He asks the audience to let him know what they think. - The first guy asks if there is a magical girl from Madoka Magica that most describes your personality and why? Gen says Out of the five Kyouko, Madoka and Homura, he likes all three. Gen says it is too difficult to pick just one. - Next guy asks about the mentions made in Nietzsche’s philosophy in the third Madoka movie, was there a a Nietzschean influence? Gen says he thinks that all the characters know their fate, they’re all doing it while knowing their destiny. It’s not sad, but they know what their fate is. - Panel concludes with auctioning off of three signed Madoka Magica posters, which is determined by Gen playing rock paper scissors with the contestants. It is amazing. --Mutopis 14:45, 5 July 2014 (UTC)
