Puella Magi Madoka Magica Finished

Episode 3. Sayaka had a dear friend named Kamijou. Kamijou was a great violin player, but after he was involved in an accident, her fingers were injured and he couldn’t play violin anymore. Sayaka thought about Kamijou condition for her wish, but Mami told her to re-think about her real intention, was it to ‘save Kamijou’ or to ‘have Kamijou saved by her’. After that, Madoka and Sayaka encountered a Grief Seed that almost born as a new witch. Madoka then called Mami while Sayaka & Kyuubey were waiting there to watch over the Seed. Madoka and Mami came, followed by Homura. Homura claimed the witch as her prey, and told Mami that she would go by herself. Mami worried about what Homura might do to Sayaka and Kyuubey, so she restrained Homura by her magic. Before Mami and Madoka went, Homura warned Mami that the witch was different from the other witches that Mami ever fought. Madoka then told Mami that she hadn’t figured her wish, but she would become magical girl to help Mami.

[SPOILER ALERT]

Mami was so happy to hear Madoka’s words, and she fought happily after that. However, when she thought that her final attack killed the witch, its real form was released and attacked back at her. Mami was eaten by the witch. Shocked, Kyuubey asked Sayaka and Madoka to form magic contract. Before they answered, Homura came (the magic seal was released when Mami died) and defeated the witch. Homura then told them that magical girls are fighting and risk their life.

Episode 4. Still grieved by Mami’s death, Sayaka and Madoka re-think their decision. Madoka went to Mami’s place, and found out that Mami had no relatives. Then, Madoka met Homura around there. Homura said that the body of the person who died in the magical world wouldn’t return to the real world, so the person will be considered ‘missing’. After that, Madoka met her friend Hitomi, and found that Hitomi had a witch’s mark. Hitomi and other people were gathering to do a mass suicide. Madoka stopped them, but she was trapped in a magical world. When Madoka thought that she would die, magical girl Sayaka came and saved her. Sayaka finally formed a contract with Kyuubey after Kamijou told her; the only thing that could heal his fingers is a miracle. Meanwhile, another magical girl named Kyoko came to the town.

And if I have to describe the rest of the episodes... Madoka Magica is a great story... twist and unexpected turns, you'll see all of that. This show is a dark side of magical girl... the secret that lies behind them, the fate that awaits them... is despair. 9/10.
