The United States uses military resources meant to keep us safe to spy on, torture, groom, and harass victims of pedophilic abuse. Victims are groomed and forcibly shown deviant sexual content at ages as young as 6 years old. They hack the household devices, including hijacking the television while a child is up and alone. They are forcibly shown deviant content involving animals or disgusting acts that would be illegal for an adult. They target victims this young because this is the age that fetishes are developed and children this young are not capable of understanding what they are seeing is not normal. They are intentionally grooming defenseless children into deviant sexualities. This is also a way to shame victims into silence, they think the more deviant and depraved they are with children, they will be less likely to speak out about what happened to them out of shame. In person they will encourage children below puberty to engage in deviant sexual acts and try to convince them this is normal behavior. Both children and adults are molested and raped through the use of substances that render them unconscious and the only reason a victim might know that something has occurred is because they leave body fluids in or around the victim. When the victims get older there is use of an advanced AI that alters content that they see by inserting references and imagery that would seem normal to other people but has special meaning to the torture victim. This will be repeated again and again indefinitely. This is both for the purposes of psychological torture and to provoke violence Some people are being intentionally tortured throughout their entire lives, they may target them because they think they are easy prey or maybe they were just attracted to that particular child. They use innocuous symbols because there is plausible deniability . A victim that was deviantly groomed by pedophiles is repeatedly shown something related to their exploitation. Like a rapist that rapes a woman with a common object for the purposes of torture. They want the victim to relive the trauma as much as possible. The use of weaponized AI would manipulate algorithms to show them what the torturers wanted them to see. The AI would do the grunt work of content modification and categorization.
Perhaps their wish became opposite from the original. For example, we know that Sayaka's wish was for her boyfriend to recover so Sayaka has regeneration ability in her magical girl form. In the trailer, we can see that Sayaka was wrapped in bandage, it could explain that she doesn't have regeneration ability probably because of Homura
It’s been 10 years since Rebellion, 7 years since the Concept Movie, and 2 Years since the official movie announcement. This better be the greatest piece of cinema ever made
We could talk about both… like why is the tune for the “soferia mysteria(?)” chant on this trailer derived from the first four notes of Sagitta Luminis (Goddess Madoka Theme)… it even plays very faintly when the new girl appears and crescendos into the trailer music… what secrets are you hiding Yuki Kajiura…
0:58 It’s amazing how clear in Homura’s face it is that she has finally given into the literal decades of suffering. Like she still has the same design and all but she’s very sickly looking.
@@bloddrinkeraka There's also multiple copies of her standing on various levels of the tower of books. Excellent analysis. We've seen this motif for her time travel. Makes sense that she's now everywhere at once after taking Madoka's power
I believe that girl is not homura for two reasons: 1. her hair color is more ashy brown, compared to homura's dark grey hair 2. in the official poster, she stands right before homura (who is holding quite a gnarly weapon) maybe she's an enemy? no clue
Screenplay written by Gen Urobuchi. (I'm so glad he wrote this!) Director: Yukihiro Miyamoto. (He did all the Madoka movies!) Music: Yuki Kajiura. (I love her music so much!) I read those three names, and I jumped in real life. I can't tell you how happy I am to see Madoka return in 2024!
Don't forget Chief Director: Akiyuki Shinbou He's had a huge influence on the anime community with his unique directing style and those he's mentor under him working on their own anime projects using his "SHAFT" style.
Yeah but Gen kinda hated these project tho I read it somewhere before but Gen really want Madoka chapter to be over with the anime and it took great persuasion from basically everyone to get him back for Rebellion not sure what is his position now tho, 2010-2015 is pretty busy period for Gen but nowadays I don't think he's swimming in job right now
The flowers surrounding Homura at 0:57 are most likely asphodels. In victorian flower language, they mean "My regrets will follow you to the grave". Their origins are said to be based in Greek mythology. They grew in the underworld, and were consumed by the dead. Homer's Odyssey shaped the idea of asphodel as a flower of regret, referring to the Asphodel Meadows as a section of the underworld where neither good nor evil souls resided- a type of ghostly purgatory.
(For why I believe it is asphodels and not something like lilies, the shape of the statue behind Homura is the same growing pattern as asphodels , including how leaves only grow at the root, and how there are 6 petals.)
At 0:55 Behind Madoka are passion flowers and red roses. The passion flowers symbolize the passion of Christ and the red roses the shedding of the blood of Christ, judging by the former flowers meaning. This ties to Madoka's depiction as a Christ like figure , specially in Rebellion.
She probably realized that she fucked up pretty bad by removing madoka from the law of cycles😂. I guess/hope the movie will adress the consequences of homuras actions
List of observations: 0:01 lizard, previously seen in Rebellion being squashed during Homura's transformation into a witch; an analysis video said it was a personification of Homura. Instead of being cool-tone colors like in Rebellion, it's now an angry scarlet. 0:06 XVIII, the Moon in the major arcana of tarot cards; butterflies similar to the ones from a witch labyrinth in the OG series are pinned as if this is a controlled scientific environment. 0:09 again, the lizard that Homura sits on and the black feathers from her Devil costume 0:12 bruh why she look so smug? we hear the phone click as the person on the other end of the call hangs up. Homura seems to have challenged someone to the protection of the world, asking if they can find a better solution than hers. Edit: in the new movie poster, there are two Homuras--the one featured in this trailer who wears a black headband and one who wears Madoka's ribbons. There's a telephone bridging the space between them, so maybe the person in opposition to Homura(?) in this trailer is the real Homura or maybe another part of her. 0:14-0:30 there's a series of voices over phone; not sure exactly from where, but these lines sound like echoes from different moments in the series and Rebellion: "it's a secret, don't tell anyone," the magical girl secret "there is one thing you must do," "it's love," parroting Kyubey and Homura's dialogue when she becomes Devil Homura; it's weird that, for a theme that motivated Homura's violent decision to rewrite the universe again, there is no other hint of "love" in the rest of this trailer "what nonsense," "devil," "a magical girl I don't know," about Homura's sudden appearance as a magical girl in Mitakihara city at the start of the series "bring hope," about Madoka as the Law of Cycles "goodbye. release that girl," Madoka's unfiltered voice addresses Homura and she responds with a filtered voice, "my best friend." Then, the phone is put down again. 0:14-0:30 the visuals during the same sequence are mostly flashbacks to Walpurgisnacht and a big focus on Homura--going from a full body view from the back, to her face, and finally to just her eyes; the singular white background in this sequence is on "this world is for 'Madoka'." Madoka's name is in quotes, like she's a concept or revered ideal that Homura has rather than a real person. 0:33 speculations on whether this is Homura or not: subsequent frames show Mami, Kyouko, and Sayaka in changed costumes (1:02-1:04), and the similarity of the skirt, general outfit, and diamond motifs indicates it could be Homura. At the same time, Homura at 1:14 wears a different outfit, so I'd lean away from that theory. This person honestly gives vibes of some combination of Madoka and Homura; it could be Madoka--who's traditionally been a bow-user--trying to understand Homura and the concept of magical girls in the new world, but that's also a stretch 0:39 why did Madoka jump... (edit: I hate to be the person using characters' socks as the justification for who's who, but this character is the same one as 0:33 judging by the side ponytail hairstyle and the black socks different from Madoka's 3/4 length white ones shown later at 0:54); the writing is different from witch scripts this time, it actually looks more similar to human languages. And then there are the fancy-distorted words in English: "legend bestie"? (edit from @z0mbiemancer in replies!: what's written is "legendär bestie" translating to "legendary beast"), "wraith." Wraiths were the replacement to witches post-Law of Cycles, but the ballooning shape that consumes Madoka is something malevolent, regardless. Maybe if she was forced to be normal, she'd fall into this kind of witch's trap. 0:42 Mami's outfit is duller and her ribbons are only the binding red ones she's used on Homura twice--she seems less in control and less bright than before, maybe more volatile 0:48 three figures on the roof, likely Mami, Kyouko, and Sayaka suspecting there's something wrong 0:54 the single happy scene of this trailer of Madoka's normal life... 0:57 --while Homura watches with a strained smile from the distance. At the end of Rebellion, Homura said she might not be able to be friends with Madoka this time and seems to have kept to that, however painfully. Edit: from the movie poster, this would also be the frontward facing Homura due to headband and white socks over leggings... the way this shot of Homura is the only still character in the trailer is uncanny. 0:59 the scenery around Homura is flowery and mostly pastels or white, starkly different from Homura's black parasol and preferred color scheme; I wonder if it's supposed to suggest Homura's virtue or show how she sticks out from the world she's tried so hard to create; at this moment, the music also gains intensity and an insidious quality 1:02-1:04 in contrast to Homura's light background, Kyouko, Mami, and Sayaka have a dark red background. They've changed magical girl outfits. Sayaka seems particularly not okay. Her half-hearted hand gesture with the cape mocks the hero of justice her TV series self wanted--perhaps if she has continued to raise suspicions since her post-world rewrite Rebellion confrontation with Homura, Homura's world muted her ability to talk in a physical way that Sayaka wants to hide 1:05 a mandatory Kyubey eyes shot that leaves its involvement a complete mystery 1:06 a fan of papers flies into the air, maybe this is how Homura perpetuates the story she's making; numerous minions of Homura from Rebellion stand throughout and behind the tall paper tower, speaking the line "and so, let the curtain rise on tonight's dream" 1:14 Homura's throne is on the school rooftop; the stakes pinning the butterflies down at 0:06 cross behind her seat; her magical girl costume is also different. 1:19 contrary to her distressed and fatigued expression, Homura's voice is deceptively light as she repeats the line--similar to a witch, she seems intent on creating a fake world and playing god for it; the gem on her left hand shows she's still the devil (also dang, she really changes her headband once per movie). Edit: back to the movie poster, if there are two Homuras, then the black hairband Homura clearly gained all the powers. Honestly, I push this theory mostly because I don't think Homura would sound so delighted about starting the farce that's been depicted throughout the trailer. 1:23 "Walpurgisnacht Rising," the name of the film. I can't imagine how Walpurgisnacht is relevant again unless Homura's new dream involves resetting everything to pre-TV series (as the various differences disprove). Walpurgisnacht, as the first final boss of magical girls, could just be symbolism for the rise of a new ultimate challenge. 1:26 in the credits, we have Gekidan InuCurry on "parallel world design," so this dream Homura talks about will probably feature heavily; no new cast members have been added, at least ones that SHAFT wants to reveal; Nagisa didn't show up at all in this trailer Lots and lots of speculation, but no proof because Madoka Magica, being as abstract, creative, and unpredictable as it is, will probably turn over a lot of this when it comes out. Misc afterthoughts (edited): - not that you needed more proof that Homura is trying to stage a specific image of the world, but unlike Rebellion's trailer which includes almost every cast member's voice, this trailer is fully voiced over by Homura, her familiars, and the distorted voices over the phone; this also means that the trailer is hiding a lot of information just to keep us guessing about what really happens in the whole situation outside of Homura's POV - the frequent usage of telephones (in the poster, as a symbol, beep and ringing noises throughout) is pretty interesting; I don't recall much from Magia Record, but a wild theory is that Homura or someone else can whisper rumors to people using the telephone (that's a Jibaku Shounen Hanako-kun inspiration)--otherwise, it could just be a device supporting parallel world communication - speaking of which, to talk about the parallel world, I think it was already an ironic choice for Homura to rewrite the universe to basically trap everyone in an evolved version of her unplanned witch's labyrinth in Rebellion. Ultimately, Homura is selfish and she realized her wish to see Madoka again in the most extreme way after being in conflict with her own feelings the entire movie. Regardless, creating a parallel world would be a most Kyubey-like plan to isolate and perfectly maintain this "witch labyrinth" - Yuki Kajiura OSTs are the best - character interactions in this trailer consist of: Homura to ??? over phone; Sayaka, Madoka, and Hitomi with Homura in the distance; Kyouko, Mami, and Sayaka. So we see a deliberate series of non-overlapping scenes like they could be from totally different stories even when this couldn't be the case. Madoka looks apart from the magical girl side as Homura would want, but the scene of Sayaka with Madoka and then Sayaka with Kyouko and Mami must be in that chronological order for Sayaka's attitude to make sense. Most notably, Homura and Madoka don't have a real scene together even when the Madoka Magica series has always revolved around those two. - Somebody was really observant about Sayaka having bandages on her neck when she was with Madoka (barely visible at 0:53), so I guess Sayaka's getting better at pretending. Well... she did pretend to be her regular middle-school self in Rebellion until Homura started poking around, so maybe she's always been good at pretending ever since she realized her original ideal of justice was unrealistic in the TV series and discarded that impulsiveness. Though, it's hard to imagine Madoka and Hitomi wouldn't have noticed. What sort of excuse did Sayaka have to make to justify covering her neck?
At 0:39, the writing is actually "legendär bestie," which is German for "legendary beast." Walpurgisnacht is of German origin, after all. It's not going to stop me from calling MadoHomu legendary besties, though.
@@z0mbiemancer thanks for the correction haha, I couldn't decipher the är but this does make far more sense than the internet slang interpretation I had to go with
The Clara Dolls are also all around the tower scene. There’s a “second” Homura standing on the tower - that might be # 15, “Love”. Maybe Love is the happy Homura we see in the beginning, filling the real Homura’s place while she’s up to god stuff.
It's been 10 years and this trailer still makes me feel all of the emotions I felt watching the series for the first time IM SO EXCITED IT LOOKS SO GOOD
Some details to notice: The quartet has new outfits but also look much younger(especially mami), this could be an art style change or symbolism Homura has aged the girls down/weakened their powers. Kyubey has oval eyes instead of round, they were ovals in Magia record anime when Kyubey had it's powers stolen & aged down. Most important the quartet is fighting with a new grey haired girl who is using Madoka's bow that Homura used in rebellion but how did a new magical girl get Madoka-Homura's bow? The movie is called "Walpurgisnacht rising" and Homura's umbrella is designed to look like the bottom of Walpurgisnacht's dress; will Homura lose control?
0:14 Official Name: Stage Witch (Real Name Unknown) It's nature is helplessness. The symbol of a fool that spins around and round. The legend of a mysterious witch that has been passed down from generation to generation throughout history 0:16 A Magical Girl's Worst and Most Powerful Enemy 0:17 CALAMITY 0:21 In the past, this existence brought hope, and eventually scatters curses. [The Law of Cycle] saved us. 0:24 I want to see you, just one more time. 0:27 This world is for "Madoka".
The memories of staying up into the unholy hours just to see it live. Holy shit it was indescribable, the live feed LOST IT. man Twitter afterwards was fucking crazy too Hah.. I just want the movie to come out already man, m so anxious and excited for it. But yea me too lol
Finally, after YEARS of waiting the sequel is here. Madoka Magica has awaken for all Meguca fans. Homura is now back in session. I’m so looking forward to it!
@@Toxi_Chris watch the rebellion movie after the first season everything else is kinda side story if youre looking for more content, but for sure watch madoka magica rebellion in order to understand whats going on in this movie.
By giving her trauma likely ;p (I joke to cover up my fear for best girl ;-;) (Between the shots in both this and the original concept trailer I'm honestly so worried that her mouth was mutilated in some way)
1:04 While other magical girls seems to have gotten new version of their outfits (Homura's Magical outfit at the end 1:15 is just spectacular!), Sayaka seems to have a ribbon all wrapped around her face and mouth, like if to stay silent or something. I feel like it kinda connects with the fact she was the one who knows The Law of Cycle and Devil Homura, so it could be a meaning that Sayaka is, or *forced* to stay silent about what she forgot by Homura at the end of Rebellion. Also I'm excited to see if Hitomi really have a bigger role, according to what they announced during Concept Movie too!
I feel like that's indeed the case since she did have a conversation with Homura by the end of Rebellion, though I'm pretty sure she has still remembered everything hence the wraps in her face. I feel like she'll be given really big importance and I also feel a battle between her and Homura should happen considering they both oppose each other's views.
I remember when this movie came out 38 years ago. Me and my family and all of our pets all gathered up and had a whole family reunion just to attend this movie in the cinemas, this is the best movie to ever exist and I have laid my eyes upon. this move inspired me to become a doctor, a lawyer, and ever an astronaut. and has also changed my life forever.
i cant stop watching this trailer over and over, this series really told me "You haven't felt what Homura felt" and took me right out of my 2013 depression, IM SO GLAD ITS BACK Y'ALL!!!!!!
sorry i probably took the joke to far there, but i really do love the series so much, i should have explained more that this series is my bad day series, my go cry series, its the series i come too to feel good, my first movie i'll play in a new house, for my new friends, as weird as it is, this series has been a constant in my life the last 10 years, and will continue to be a constant in my life, until im old and dying.@@Iokko_
Homura is more powerful than see has ever been. Her character has radically evolved from a wee little girl with a heart disability, to god like levels of power. She'll use this power to keep Madoka safe, but will she take this to the extreme?
@@wa0187 She wanted to kill herself so that Kyubey wouldn't get to Madoka. She can do anything. I wonder what will happen if she sees herself as a threat to Madoka...
@@Halfrole10 Well...didn't she try to kill herself after she realized that she was being used as a bait to lure Madoka out? Basically, she had been a threat to Madoka during Rebellion. She did what she thinks. The issue here is that she believes Madoka's sacrificial tendency is more like a threat - being separated from families & friends, and being lonely.
I love Sayaka Miki magical girl design, she is force to shut up by Homura herself but still having an eye not covered for the reason that happened in rebellion. Sayaka knows the truth but she is forced to be mute, I'm here SUPPORTING SAYAKA ALL THE WAY! So exciting.
It's happening. It's finally happening. Since I watched Rebellion, I've been scratching walls wondering where the hell was the fourth movie. The wait was excruciating but after this trailer, the pain is worth it. PEAK FICTION IS BACK!!!!!
Because Homura doesn't want Sayaka to confront her again since Sayaka knows the truth of the world Homura created so bandages are just a metaphor for Homura dominating her.
@@maila319 Yeah, I was thinking Homura caused that too. However, I also suspect Sayaka isn't the only one who remembers since she wasn't the only one who was Madoka's angel. The other one is just more secretive about it.
I think in the game in an alternate timeline Sayaka threw away her soul gem and ofc she started to decay they eventually found it but she was falling apart at that point
I just realized and I can't stop admiring the hidden detail of the "Passiflora Caerulea" Flowers that can be seen in the background, between the arches that can be seen at minute 0:56, flowers that in Japan are known as 果物時計草 (Clock Flower) and allude to Homura and her concept. These Flowers have a circular shape that resembles a clock, and have a purple hue like Homura's. At the same time, these Flowers give rise to the fruit known as passion fruit, a Fruit referring to the Sacrifice of Jesus Christ, a sacrifice that at the same time resembles that of Madoka. It's a pretty significant detail in the Trailer, I love it
It's scary that Sayaka's face is bandaged. Looks like there's an attack that hurt her so bad her healing factor couldn't repair it, and that's terrifying
@@manquo nope, because she still have bandages around her neck when she's using uniform. That would not make sense. She still can talk. And well, it's kind of imposible that about remembering because Homura deleted her memories in the last Rebellion scene. Also why she's covering only her neck when she's not magical girl? Where does witch kisses appears? Exactly,on peoples necks. I'm pretty sure that Oktavia (her witch) is trying to interact with her somehow appearing as a witch kiss on her neck. We all know how Sayaka is, she would try to hide it instead of ask for help. So that's the reason behind the bandages when she have her school uniform. So, probably, when she transform into a magical girl ,Oktavia's parts or curses are able to show more agressively and that's why she have the whole face + neck and arms covered. There's an artist on Instagram who made a fanart about it. @_kuro_ink It would make no sense if Homura try to cover her mouth only in her Magical girl form. Sayaka is trying to hide something by herself and I don't think she have memories from the past
@@Rio-chiiWAIT WHAT?!!? I never noticed the connection… my mom *LOVES* that story (Ik it’s not the Disney version) and so far she likes Sayaka… so I can’t wait to reveal that to her
They look like parallel universe versions of each other, so weird but cool!! And the girl in the beginning with the ribbons and bow is a combination of Mami and Homura! This movie is going to be insane.
I’m thinking the same too, the redesigned Holy Quintet look like they came from another universe and they look significantly younger than the Holy Quintet.
Maybe she is a combination of mami, homura and madoka (there are lots of frills in her dress), Walpurgisnacht consist after all of multiple magical girls
@@brakdanych4329 This would make sense considering Mami becomes a God as well if we take the Concept Movie as a hint to what we might get in Walpurgisnacht Rising.
@@kai8618 I do think inklings of the trailer of the Concept Movie will carry on over to Walpurgis no Kaiten, it makes me wonder what Mami’s role will be judging from the Concept Movie
0:03 - A salamander can be seen moving across homura's hand. 0:09 - Homura 0:33 - looks like a new magical girl. 0:39 - Madoka Entering what looks like a labyrinth. 0:43 - New magical girl, she looks to be fighting/dancing against/with ribbons. 0:58 - Homura 1:00 - Introduction of the new designs for Kyoko, Mami and Sayaka 1:04 - Kyubey's eyes. 1:08 - homura standing with a pistol in hand. 1:12 - Another homura can be seen. 1:14 - Yet another homura sitting in a chair
@@cosoconvida6674 the "Mami" shown there has different outfit than the new design Mami, mainly the top since the new design Mami's top kinda gives me a Chinese dress vibes. And it's also different from the original design Mami (just slightly)
I don't think it's Madoka entering a labyrinth. It looks more like the new character, and the visual effects remind me more of the wraiths, which makes sense since Homura mentioned them at the end of Rebellion. She also said she only took a part of the Law of Cycles, so it seems witches don't exist in this universe.
My favorite part is when Homura said : We're gonna go back in time to the first Walpurgisnacht in order to get Madoka off the menu. And then proceeded to go back in time to the first Walpurgisnacht in order to get Madoka off the menu all over the place
@@CatherinetheMewsthebestMTB it's 2 memes put together. The "we're going back to the 1th thanksgiving to get turkey off the menu (x2)" from Free Birds + the morbius meme And of course, the fact that Homura goes back in time to save Madoka.
The return, of my favourite main character in anime, Homura Akemi! The return, of my favourite composer, Yuki Kajiura!! The return, of my favourite anime of all time, MADOKA MAGICA!!!
Well in that montage, it's not homura's voice speaking, I assume it's the voice of the clara doll familiars, as they mock her throughout the montage (they did so in rebellion as well). Calling her the devil, saying "that's nonsense" after the it's love. Telling her to release the girl.
theyre so besties, really showing us what sisterhood is like, ya know? the whole dramatic parallels and contrasting designs is so straight of them, love that for them. i too would dethrone god and chain her down to an alternate timeline where she happy :) very familial i assure you
You can love a character and still admit when they're wrong... i love homura but can acknowledge her flaws (she has none) and can hold her accountable for her wrongdoings (she's never done anything wrong in her life) and call her out for her actions (which are always correct)
If I could describe this anime as anything, it would be disturbingly beautiful. The story is so twisted and interwoven seamlessly yet has such gorgeous music and visuals to the point of haunting the viewer well after watching it. And since it’s a movie I’d imagine the quality will be on the same level if not a step above Rebellion and will push the envelope of a new standard of animation going forward for the franchise. Definitely seeing this in theaters if given the chance.
I just sums it up to girl becomes God because her time traveling lesbian stalker doesn't know what a restraining order is, which the stalker responds by literally turning into the devil.
@@zacharyzwickl5860that's very reductive of what Homura is actually doing. She's got actual reasons. I mean considering that she's trying to stop a 14 year old girl from sacrificing her own life for others and forming contacts she can't fully consent to due to her age... Arguably I'd say Homura is kinda in the right to a degree. If these two girls were adults it might be different. But these are literally just kids, yknow? Severely, severely traumatized kids
@@zacharyzwickl5860in addition, if you think about it, the devil transformation being opposed to modoka's godhood was kinda inevitable when modoka became a god, I feel. Because Madoka's wish requires that she be a concept, the law of cycles. But that goes against Homura's wish of saving Modoka. Modoka sacrificing herself isn't Homura "saving" Madoka. So, their wishes are at odds. Which you'd think the Incubators would have had measures for. This can't be the only time magical girls have had opposing wishes, right?
Ι hope this arc will be in 2 or 3 movies and not just one. I would like Homura to be the main villain for an entire movie at least. I think such a premise has potential.
i have no doubt that homura akemi will end up as a bigger threat than the incubators and take the spot of main villain of the franchise. Incubators were the classic type of villains that were dealing with emotions they cannot truly understand, it's only natural that someone who truly feels emotions overcomes them. It's a classic case of a creation overthrowing it's creators.
I’ve been watching this trailer everyday for the past 7 months like that guys who has been commenting on Madoka opening video for the past 700 days. We’re basically neighbors
It is said that during Rebellion, among the 15 Clara Dolls, which were supposed to represent harmful emotions, only 14 appeared, the one missing being Love. Now, between 1:08 and 1:17, only 14 Clara dolls can be seen, which means that the last one has not yet arrived
@@isauldron4337 out of curiosity, do you have a link for the supplementary material for that? (or, err, the supplementary material in general? i'm just generally unaware of where all that is lmfao) although, continuing theory-crafting: it would make sense for it to be said that "no one has seen it" if Homura *is* the doll, since no one would make the connection that that vaguely human looking thing is a Clara Doll.
I can't wait for the pure amount of pain I will endure with this. Homura's entire character seems completely different yet exactly the same! I love the artistic style of this series so much!
Damn, it has been a whole year since this trailer. Time really flys by. Hopefully we get some news (though i know it has been delayed by a year but still another trailer or even some other announcement would be cool)
OMFG. I completely forgot we still have the 4th movie. Goosebumps... madoka magica is my most fave anime of all time. 13 years since the series. I am beyond hyped TT
@@ΚοινωνικόςΟρθολογιστής wikipedia says this info was released during aniplex online fest 2023, it was only a estimated date though, no official release date yet
Yuki Kajiura does not miss. Can't wait to hear her new music. I'm so hype, been waiting forever for the follow-up of Rebellion. Couldn't quite get into the mobile spin-off anime
Something interesting to point out about Madoka's Witch and Walpurgusnacht (sorry if I misspelt her name) is that if I recall from seeing this show years ago... Both of them are two sides of an hourglass, or resemnle that in design. This would explain why the movie is named the way it is. Walpurgisnacht has been the main villain since the start, the thing stopping Homura from saving Madoka. After that many retries, how did she not figure out how to kill the Witch? Because her time loops attached fate to it as well. Think about it, didn't Madoka die killing that thing in the first timeline? The exact time Homura made her wish to protect her? She'd be subconsciously thinking about that creature. So if Madoka is a God, and Homura was able to capture a god, what about how strong that thing is now that Homura became a deity herself? If Madoka's and Walpurgis' fate/karma is tied to Homura's resets, and Homura rewrote reality with Madoka's power, what can the thing they ALL failed to defeat do by now? That could wipe the planet even before Madoka had enough resets for her witch to be that strong? Sayaka, Kyoko and Mami definitely got stronger as well. Especially Sayaka with rhe whole "Being Madoka's Aide". She's bandaged up though. Also what happened to Bebe remains a mystery, I don't see her at all in the trailer.
😳 Oh dear…if I understood that correctly then Walpurgisnacht is conceptually tied to those two. And like Madoka was grew stronger with each reset. … Shit.
A main point will be trying to figure out what has happened between this movie and Rebellion. This seems to be a direct aftermath of Homura's, well... We'll call it a 'forceful reset'. She's very obviously the demon/god we saw after all that, but just how much time has passed and has she had to do anything else like the 'reset' in that timespan? And she's missing the earring which seemed important. Especially interesting is who is wielding the bow. I had to watch back a few times and I still can't tell if it's Homura or actually Madoka. The hair seems too long and dark to be Madoka but then it's too short and light to be Homura (even if Homura was to put her hair in a ponytail which it seems the bow wielder has, it's come done farther then that). And the bow is indeed Homura's (which also shares a very similar design profile with the missing earring). I could write off the other changes in the outfit being off as simple design changes which have happened before (with lore significance) and even seen here is a major point of the story for the movie/lore. But then right after is a scene that is for sure Madoka, see the hair being in pigtails but too straight to be Mami. But it's clearly a nod to school 'self endings' that happen in Japan (schools there famously have/had chain link fences around the roof and leaving the shoes behind was a common thing in 'self endings'). And besides debatably the bow scene, we don't actually have a confirmation of Madoka's magic at all. We only get a shot of her soul gem in the flashback sequence (which also interestingly enough has a Homura with her earring that isn't seen at all in the other shots of Homura for the actual movie).
Walpurgisnacht is full of clockwork gears and shaped like the top half of an hourglass. Madoka's witch before the last episode was shaped like the bottom half. Headcanon: Walpurgisnacht was witch Homura, going back and forth in time and bringing magical girls into her false utopian dream, just as goddess Madoka goes back and forth in time bringing genuine hope. This would also create parallelism between Homura fighting her future self Walpurgisnacht, and Madoka fighting and defeating her future witch self as goddess Madoka.
We are so back. To those who now CRAVE more Madoka content: Give the mangas a try. If you want a general roadmap, read in release order and start with Kazumi Magica. If you really just wanna see the usual cast, read The Different Story for more Kyoko greatness or Oriko Magica and its side books Extra Story and Sadness Prayer.
@@coreylineberry8557 Tamura confirmed that Homura either grows up plus sized and cute or grows into looking like Junko. Proof it's the best way to experience the character
You can't say to read the mangas without mentionning Wraith Arc !! It takes place between the end of the anime and Rebellion after all, it's like THE one people should read first as it explains some parts of Rebellion !! Although The Different Story is a treat too
@@aloisssssss I say always read in release order. Wraith Arc just comes after most others. Wraith Arc does bother me cause now I want Wraith Arcs for the other mangas(especially Kazumi).
@@jouheikisaragi6075 Yeah, but the stories aren't related, so if someone wants to read only a few manga, might as well read the one that are canon. And I find it hard to imagine a Wraith Arc existing for any spin-off, not only because of the lack of popularity, but also because their stories would need to be re-written from the start since they rely so much on the witches. Although anyway I disliked Kazumi, Suzune and Oriko so I guess it doesn't change much to me. I only liked Tart as a spin-off with another cast. But that part is just my opinion.
At the 0:06 stamp we can clearly see a tarot card (moon sign)and it's meaning is perfectly describing Homuras state And it goes like this: " The Moon is card of illusion and deception,and therefore often suggests a time when something is not as it appears to be.Perhaps a misunderstanding on your part,or a truth you cannot admit to yourself."
0:38 onwards, if you go frame by frame does the English text read "Wraith" and "Legendar Bestie" (sic)? Legendary bestie, truly a title worthy of Homura.
Fun facts: Demon Homura's big attacks in magia record game are to disable enemy skills and atack. So maybe she weakened all of magical girl powers around her which is why Sayaka didn't regen her face with her ability. 2nd fact: In Madokami's magia record transformation there are multiple of her doing her duty, and we knew it from ep 12 and we know she can be splitted by rebellion. So maybe similarly Homura is splitted because in the stashed tower at the end there are multiple homuras or maybe it's just symbolism or perhaps it's her forms from other timelines. 3rd fact: The character we see looks like a mix of holy quintet. It might be one of homura's familiars or a wraith since wraiths are based on memories and feelings of one. So she can be just a wraith made with Homura's mind or memories. Dangering to remind people what really happened.
This looks so promising, The Meguca girls are back! The animation is eye-catching and seeing how good the previous stuff was I think this movie will be amazing! :)
Nealy 10 years since rebellion.

@@evansmcheaven2749 No, Homura split her in half.
The United States uses military resources meant to keep us safe to spy on, torture, groom, and harass victims of pedophilic abuse.
Victims are groomed and forcibly shown deviant sexual content at ages as young as 6 years old. They hack the household devices, including hijacking the television while a child is up and alone. They are forcibly shown deviant content involving animals or disgusting acts that would be illegal for an adult. They target victims this young because this is the age that fetishes are developed and children this young are not capable of understanding what they are seeing is not normal. They are intentionally grooming defenseless children into deviant sexualities. This is also a way to shame victims into silence, they think the more deviant and depraved they are with children, they will be less likely to speak out about what happened to them out of shame.
In person they will encourage children below puberty to engage in deviant sexual acts and try to convince them this is normal behavior. Both children and adults are molested and raped through the use of substances that render them unconscious and the only reason a victim might know that something has occurred is because they leave body fluids in or around the victim.
When the victims get older there is use of an advanced AI that alters content that they see by inserting references and imagery that would seem normal to other people but has special meaning to the torture victim. This will be repeated again and again indefinitely.
This is both for the purposes of psychological torture and to provoke violence
Some people are being intentionally tortured throughout their entire lives, they may target them because they think they are easy prey or maybe they were just attracted to that particular child.
They use innocuous symbols because there is plausible deniability . A victim that was deviantly groomed by pedophiles is repeatedly shown something related to their exploitation. Like a rapist that rapes a woman with a common object for the purposes of torture. They want the victim to relive the trauma as much as possible. The use of weaponized AI would manipulate algorithms to show them what the torturers wanted them to see. The AI would do the grunt work of content modification and categorization.
Rest in peace to the fans who literally died waiting for this. It's been an entire decade.
FUCK THAT HURTS 😭😭😭😭😭
Oh.. My God, that so sad. 😢
Oh wait… never thought about that…
damn my depression cured in that time how to watch madoka now
❤
My favorite part of this movie is how everyone underwent costume evolution. Not just the magical girl outfits, but also the school uniforms.
They’re growing up.
Tbh that has already happened in Magia Record multiple times.
probably because of Homura's distortion
Perhaps their wish became opposite from the original. For example, we know that Sayaka's wish was for her boyfriend to recover so Sayaka has regeneration ability in her magical girl form. In the trailer, we can see that Sayaka was wrapped in bandage, it could explain that she doesn't have regeneration ability probably because of Homura
Wait ok don’t shame on me but I haven’t watched all of record? So should I finish it for the movie to make sense???

Always has been. I fell in love with her decades back with the .hack//sign soundtrack
We could talk about both… like why is the tune for the “soferia mysteria(?)” chant on this trailer derived from the first four notes of Sagitta Luminis (Goddess Madoka Theme)… it even plays very faintly when the new girl appears and crescendos into the trailer music… what secrets are you hiding Yuki Kajiura…
She never fails
It's powerful The song art... amazing
Of course
I love how the trailers phone noises adds to the tempo
0:58 It’s amazing how clear in Homura’s face it is that she has finally given into the literal decades of suffering. Like she still has the same design and all but she’s very sickly looking.
it's not homura, it's her familiar
@@bloddrinkerakahow do you know??
@@solm.6184 her head piece is exact same as one of Clara's dolls
@@bloddrinkeraka There's also multiple copies of her standing on various levels of the tower of books. Excellent analysis. We've seen this motif for her time travel. Makes sense that she's now everywhere at once after taking Madoka's power
I believe that girl is not homura for two reasons:
1. her hair color is more ashy brown, compared to homura's dark grey hair
2. in the official poster, she stands right before homura (who is holding quite a gnarly weapon)
maybe she's an enemy? no clue

Yeah but Gen kinda hated these project tho
I read it somewhere before but Gen really want Madoka chapter to be over with the anime and it took great persuasion from basically everyone to get him back for Rebellion
not sure what is his position now tho, 2010-2015 is pretty busy period for Gen but nowadays I don't think he's swimming in job right now
The flowers surrounding Homura at 0:57 are most likely asphodels. In victorian flower language, they mean "My regrets will follow you to the grave". Their origins are said to be based in Greek mythology. They grew in the underworld, and were consumed by the dead. Homer's Odyssey shaped the idea of asphodel as a flower of regret, referring to the Asphodel Meadows as a section of the underworld where neither good nor evil souls resided- a type of ghostly purgatory.
(For why I believe it is asphodels and not something like lilies, the shape of the statue behind Homura is the same growing pattern as asphodels , including how leaves only grow at the root, and how there are 6 petals.)
Good freaking catch. I’ve missed Madoka Magica’s symbolism
Homer... Homura... God damnit
At 0:55 Behind Madoka are passion flowers and red roses. The passion flowers symbolize the passion of Christ and the red roses the shedding of the blood of Christ, judging by the former flowers meaning. This ties to Madoka's depiction as a Christ like figure , specially in Rebellion.
More like Homura's Odyssey hahaha
God Homura looks so tired at the end. I hope this is the movie where she finally gets a fucking break
If she apologizes okay then
for what? @@isauldron4337

Hail Homucifer! I'm looking forward to seeing the world she's built.
Will we get tortured Kyuubei~? 😊
*PLEASE, tell me we'll get tortured Kyuubei.* 😐
@@MrDibaraincubators don't feel emotions so kyubey wouldn't care
@@papyrusse. They can still feel physical pain so that's something at least. Besides, Homura did screw the Incubators over in the third movie.
List of observations:
0:01 lizard, previously seen in Rebellion being squashed during Homura's transformation into a witch; an analysis video said it was a personification of Homura. Instead of being cool-tone colors like in Rebellion, it's now an angry scarlet.
0:06 XVIII, the Moon in the major arcana of tarot cards; butterflies similar to the ones from a witch labyrinth in the OG series are pinned as if this is a controlled scientific environment.
0:09 again, the lizard that Homura sits on and the black feathers from her Devil costume
0:12 bruh why she look so smug? we hear the phone click as the person on the other end of the call hangs up. Homura seems to have challenged someone to the protection of the world, asking if they can find a better solution than hers. Edit: in the new movie poster, there are two Homuras--the one featured in this trailer who wears a black headband and one who wears Madoka's ribbons. There's a telephone bridging the space between them, so maybe the person in opposition to Homura(?) in this trailer is the real Homura or maybe another part of her.
0:14-0:30 there's a series of voices over phone; not sure exactly from where, but these lines sound like echoes from different moments in the series and Rebellion:
"it's a secret, don't tell anyone," the magical girl secret
"there is one thing you must do,"
"it's love," parroting Kyubey and Homura's dialogue when she becomes Devil Homura; it's weird that, for a theme that motivated Homura's violent decision to rewrite the universe again, there is no other hint of "love" in the rest of this trailer
"what nonsense,"
"devil,"
"a magical girl I don't know," about Homura's sudden appearance as a magical girl in Mitakihara city at the start of the series
"bring hope," about Madoka as the Law of Cycles
"goodbye. release that girl,"
Madoka's unfiltered voice addresses Homura and she responds with a filtered voice, "my best friend." Then, the phone is put down again.
0:14-0:30 the visuals during the same sequence are mostly flashbacks to Walpurgisnacht and a big focus on Homura--going from a full body view from the back, to her face, and finally to just her eyes; the singular white background in this sequence is on "this world is for 'Madoka'." Madoka's name is in quotes, like she's a concept or revered ideal that Homura has rather than a real person.
0:33 speculations on whether this is Homura or not: subsequent frames show Mami, Kyouko, and Sayaka in changed costumes (1:02-1:04), and the similarity of the skirt, general outfit, and diamond motifs indicates it could be Homura. At the same time, Homura at 1:14 wears a different outfit, so I'd lean away from that theory. This person honestly gives vibes of some combination of Madoka and Homura; it could be Madoka--who's traditionally been a bow-user--trying to understand Homura and the concept of magical girls in the new world, but that's also a stretch
0:39 why did Madoka jump... (edit: I hate to be the person using characters' socks as the justification for who's who, but this character is the same one as 0:33 judging by the side ponytail hairstyle and the black socks different from Madoka's 3/4 length white ones shown later at 0:54); the writing is different from witch scripts this time, it actually looks more similar to human languages. And then there are the fancy-distorted words in English: "legend bestie"? (edit from @z0mbiemancer in replies!: what's written is "legendär bestie" translating to "legendary beast"), "wraith." Wraiths were the replacement to witches post-Law of Cycles, but the ballooning shape that consumes Madoka is something malevolent, regardless. Maybe if she was forced to be normal, she'd fall into this kind of witch's trap.
0:42 Mami's outfit is duller and her ribbons are only the binding red ones she's used on Homura twice--she seems less in control and less bright than before, maybe more volatile
0:48 three figures on the roof, likely Mami, Kyouko, and Sayaka suspecting there's something wrong
0:54 the single happy scene of this trailer of Madoka's normal life...
0:57 --while Homura watches with a strained smile from the distance. At the end of Rebellion, Homura said she might not be able to be friends with Madoka this time and seems to have kept to that, however painfully. Edit: from the movie poster, this would also be the frontward facing Homura due to headband and white socks over leggings... the way this shot of Homura is the only still character in the trailer is uncanny.
0:59 the scenery around Homura is flowery and mostly pastels or white, starkly different from Homura's black parasol and preferred color scheme; I wonder if it's supposed to suggest Homura's virtue or show how she sticks out from the world she's tried so hard to create; at this moment, the music also gains intensity and an insidious quality
1:02-1:04 in contrast to Homura's light background, Kyouko, Mami, and Sayaka have a dark red background. They've changed magical girl outfits. Sayaka seems particularly not okay. Her half-hearted hand gesture with the cape mocks the hero of justice her TV series self wanted--perhaps if she has continued to raise suspicions since her post-world rewrite Rebellion confrontation with Homura, Homura's world muted her ability to talk in a physical way that Sayaka wants to hide
1:05 a mandatory Kyubey eyes shot that leaves its involvement a complete mystery
1:06 a fan of papers flies into the air, maybe this is how Homura perpetuates the story she's making; numerous minions of Homura from Rebellion stand throughout and behind the tall paper tower, speaking the line "and so, let the curtain rise on tonight's dream"
1:14 Homura's throne is on the school rooftop; the stakes pinning the butterflies down at 0:06 cross behind her seat; her magical girl costume is also different.
1:19 contrary to her distressed and fatigued expression, Homura's voice is deceptively light as she repeats the line--similar to a witch, she seems intent on creating a fake world and playing god for it; the gem on her left hand shows she's still the devil (also dang, she really changes her headband once per movie). Edit: back to the movie poster, if there are two Homuras, then the black hairband Homura clearly gained all the powers. Honestly, I push this theory mostly because I don't think Homura would sound so delighted about starting the farce that's been depicted throughout the trailer.
1:23 "Walpurgisnacht Rising," the name of the film. I can't imagine how Walpurgisnacht is relevant again unless Homura's new dream involves resetting everything to pre-TV series (as the various differences disprove). Walpurgisnacht, as the first final boss of magical girls, could just be symbolism for the rise of a new ultimate challenge.
1:26 in the credits, we have Gekidan InuCurry on "parallel world design," so this dream Homura talks about will probably feature heavily; no new cast members have been added, at least ones that SHAFT wants to reveal; Nagisa didn't show up at all in this trailer
Lots and lots of speculation, but no proof because Madoka Magica, being as abstract, creative, and unpredictable as it is, will probably turn over a lot of this when it comes out.
Misc afterthoughts (edited):
- not that you needed more proof that Homura is trying to stage a specific image of the world, but unlike Rebellion's trailer which includes almost every cast member's voice, this trailer is fully voiced over by Homura, her familiars, and the distorted voices over the phone; this also means that the trailer is hiding a lot of information just to keep us guessing about what really happens in the whole situation outside of Homura's POV
- the frequent usage of telephones (in the poster, as a symbol, beep and ringing noises throughout) is pretty interesting; I don't recall much from Magia Record, but a wild theory is that Homura or someone else can whisper rumors to people using the telephone (that's a Jibaku Shounen Hanako-kun inspiration)--otherwise, it could just be a device supporting parallel world communication
- speaking of which, to talk about the parallel world, I think it was already an ironic choice for Homura to rewrite the universe to basically trap everyone in an evolved version of her unplanned witch's labyrinth in Rebellion. Ultimately, Homura is selfish and she realized her wish to see Madoka again in the most extreme way after being in conflict with her own feelings the entire movie. Regardless, creating a parallel world would be a most Kyubey-like plan to isolate and perfectly maintain this "witch labyrinth"
- Yuki Kajiura OSTs are the best
- character interactions in this trailer consist of: Homura to ??? over phone; Sayaka, Madoka, and Hitomi with Homura in the distance; Kyouko, Mami, and Sayaka. So we see a deliberate series of non-overlapping scenes like they could be from totally different stories even when this couldn't be the case. Madoka looks apart from the magical girl side as Homura would want, but the scene of Sayaka with Madoka and then Sayaka with Kyouko and Mami must be in that chronological order for Sayaka's attitude to make sense. Most notably, Homura and Madoka don't have a real scene together even when the Madoka Magica series has always revolved around those two.
- Somebody was really observant about Sayaka having bandages on her neck when she was with Madoka (barely visible at 0:53), so I guess Sayaka's getting better at pretending. Well... she did pretend to be her regular middle-school self in Rebellion until Homura started poking around, so maybe she's always been good at pretending ever since she realized her original ideal of justice was unrealistic in the TV series and discarded that impulsiveness. Though, it's hard to imagine Madoka and Hitomi wouldn't have noticed. What sort of excuse did Sayaka have to make to justify covering her neck?
Thx for writing all this, those were good observations
I'm loving the speculation!
At 0:39, the writing is actually "legendär bestie," which is German for "legendary beast." Walpurgisnacht is of German origin, after all.
It's not going to stop me from calling MadoHomu legendary besties, though.
@@z0mbiemancer thanks for the correction haha, I couldn't decipher the är but this does make far more sense than the internet slang interpretation I had to go with
The Clara Dolls are also all around the tower scene. There’s a “second” Homura standing on the tower - that might be # 15, “Love”.
Maybe Love is the happy Homura we see in the beginning, filling the real Homura’s place while she’s up to god stuff.

Like Homura once said…”you don’t know how long I waited, for this.”
Some details to notice: The quartet has new outfits but also look much younger(especially mami), this could be an art style change or symbolism Homura has aged the girls down/weakened their powers. Kyubey has oval eyes instead of round, they were ovals in Magia record anime when Kyubey had it's powers stolen & aged down. Most important the quartet is fighting with a new grey haired girl who is using Madoka's bow that Homura used in rebellion but how did a new magical girl get Madoka-Homura's bow? The movie is called "Walpurgisnacht rising" and Homura's umbrella is designed to look like the bottom of Walpurgisnacht's dress; will Homura lose control?
Is the fact of the umbrella official? Or a theory??

1:04 While other magical girls seems to have gotten new version of their outfits (Homura's Magical outfit at the end 1:15 is just spectacular!), Sayaka seems to have a ribbon all wrapped around her face and mouth, like if to stay silent or something. I feel like it kinda connects with the fact she was the one who knows The Law of Cycle and Devil Homura, so it could be a meaning that Sayaka is, or *forced* to stay silent about what she forgot by Homura at the end of Rebellion.
Also I'm excited to see if Hitomi really have a bigger role, according to what they announced during Concept Movie too!
here i am thinking sayaka is in a bondage cuz she got clapped by homucifer
I hope so! She is my favorite character so it'd be nice if she could get a bigger role.
I wonder what happened with Nagisa, she didn't appear in the trailer but ig she will appear considering her role in rebellion
I feel like that's indeed the case since she did have a conversation with Homura by the end of Rebellion, though I'm pretty sure she has still remembered everything hence the wraps in her face. I feel like she'll be given really big importance and I also feel a battle between her and Homura should happen considering they both oppose each other's views.
Those are Bandages, not Ribbons

sorry i probably took the joke to far there, but i really do love the series so much, i should have explained more that this series is my bad day series, my go cry series, its the series i come too to feel good, my first movie i'll play in a new house, for my new friends, as weird as it is, this series has been a constant in my life the last 10 years, and will continue to be a constant in my life, until im old and dying.@@Iokko_
Homura is more powerful than see has ever been. Her character has radically evolved from a wee little girl with a heart disability, to god like levels of power. She'll use this power to keep Madoka safe, but will she take this to the extreme?

I wonder what will happen if she sees herself as a threat to Madoka...
@@Halfrole10 I wonder too
@@Halfrole10 Well...didn't she try to kill herself after she realized that she was being used as a bait to lure Madoka out? Basically, she had been a threat to Madoka during Rebellion. She did what she thinks. The issue here is that she believes Madoka's sacrificial tendency is more like a threat - being separated from families & friends, and being lonely.
I became a fan of madoka magica a few weeks ago. It seems I chose a good time to do so. I am so hyped for this.

It's happening. It's finally happening.

1:04 Given Sayaka's tendency to directly confront people, makes you wonder why her face is covered in bandages.
Because Homura doesn't want Sayaka to confront her again since Sayaka knows the truth of the world Homura created so bandages are just a metaphor for Homura dominating her.
@@maila319
Yeah, I was thinking Homura caused that too. However, I also suspect Sayaka isn't the only one who remembers since she wasn't the only one who was Madoka's angel. The other one is just more secretive about it.
And why she won't just... TAKE THEM OFF
I think in the game in an alternate timeline Sayaka threw away her soul gem and ofc she started to decay they eventually found it but she was falling apart at that point
@@moistsquish That actually happens in the PSP game if you take too long, Kyousuke freaks out and she goes witch.
I just realized and I can't stop admiring the hidden detail of the "Passiflora Caerulea" Flowers that can be seen in the background, between the arches that can be seen at minute 0:56, flowers that in Japan are known as 果物時計草 (Clock Flower) and allude to Homura and her concept. These Flowers have a circular shape that resembles a clock, and have a purple hue like Homura's. At the same time, these Flowers give rise to the fruit known as passion fruit, a Fruit referring to the Sacrifice of Jesus Christ, a sacrifice that at the same time resembles that of Madoka.
It's a pretty significant detail in the Trailer, I love it
Homura: Why won't you die?!?!
Brazillian Night: Nanofamiliars, girl
Current Homura has zero problem handling her, so I doubt that's her main concern rn
It's scary that Sayaka's face is bandaged. Looks like there's an attack that hurt her so bad her healing factor couldn't repair it, and that's terrifying
Maybe she's just rotting like one of her side stories in the PSP game. Or probably she's trying to hide Oktavias parts
Homura probably does this to her to keep her quiet and she’s the only one who faintly remembered the past at the end of rebellion.
@@manquo nope, because she still have bandages around her neck when she's using uniform. That would not make sense. She still can talk. And well, it's kind of imposible that about remembering because Homura deleted her memories in the last Rebellion scene. Also why she's covering only her neck when she's not magical girl? Where does witch kisses appears? Exactly,on peoples necks.
I'm pretty sure that Oktavia (her witch) is trying to interact with her somehow appearing as a witch kiss on her neck. We all know how Sayaka is, she would try to hide it instead of ask for help. So that's the reason behind the bandages when she have her school uniform. So, probably, when she transform into a magical girl ,Oktavia's parts or curses are able to show more agressively and that's why she have the whole face + neck and arms covered. There's an artist on Instagram who made a fanart about it. @_kuro_ink
It would make no sense if Homura try to cover her mouth only in her Magical girl form. Sayaka is trying to hide something by herself and I don't think she have memories from the past
@@manquoThis is a good theory, considering that Sayaka's story is based on The Little Mermaid

They look like parallel universe versions of each other, so weird but cool!! And the girl in the beginning with the ribbons and bow is a combination of Mami and Homura! This movie is going to be insane.
I’m thinking the same too, the redesigned Holy Quintet look like they came from another universe and they look significantly younger than the Holy Quintet.
Maybe she is a combination of mami, homura and madoka (there are lots of frills in her dress), Walpurgisnacht consist after all of multiple magical girls

I don't think it's Madoka entering a labyrinth. It looks more like the new character, and the visual effects remind me more of the wraiths, which makes sense since Homura mentioned them at the end of Rebellion. She also said she only took a part of the Law of Cycles, so it seems witches don't exist in this universe.
My favorite part is when Homura said :
We're gonna go back in time to the first Walpurgisnacht in order to get Madoka off the menu.
And then proceeded to go back in time to the first Walpurgisnacht in order to get Madoka off the menu all over the place

"my best friend"
DON'T LIE TO ME
Yes best friend
Well in that montage, it's not homura's voice speaking, I assume it's the voice of the clara doll familiars, as they mock her throughout the montage (they did so in rebellion as well). Calling her the devil, saying "that's nonsense" after the it's love. Telling her to release the girl.
@@CatherinetheMewsthebestMTB it's so interesting how she is legit just talking to herself.
theyre so besties, really showing us what sisterhood is like, ya know? the whole dramatic parallels and contrasting designs is so straight of them, love that for them. i too would dethrone god and chain her down to an alternate timeline where she happy :) very familial i assure you
They're gay, your honour.
I was just wondering when we would get an actual trailer! This movie looks beautiful
One of the most beautiful movie trailers I have ever seen honestly
Oh yes
you don’t know.. how long I’ve waited for this.
.. 10 years by any chance?
same
You can love a character and still admit when they're wrong... i love homura but can acknowledge her flaws (she has none) and can hold her accountable for her wrongdoings (she's never done anything wrong in her life) and call her out for her actions (which are always correct)
LMAO
HAHAHQHAHQ accurate
Homura did nothing wrong (she actually does)
peak
This but without the irony
it feels like it’s been 84 years, but it’s finally here and looking better than ever
during this decade i literally lost contact with the friends that were OBSESSED with this saga, now i'll just watch it alone
With me
Me too
ive watched this trailer about 50 times right now
about 100 times by now I presume
its been 84 years ...
Yeah
If I could describe this anime as anything, it would be disturbingly beautiful. The story is so twisted and interwoven seamlessly yet has such gorgeous music and visuals to the point of haunting the viewer well after watching it. And since it’s a movie I’d imagine the quality will be on the same level if not a step above Rebellion and will push the envelope of a new standard of animation going forward for the franchise. Definitely seeing this in theaters if given the chance.
I just sums it up to girl becomes God because her time traveling lesbian stalker doesn't know what a restraining order is, which the stalker responds by literally turning into the devil.
@@zacharyzwickl5860 You're right and also very right
God I hope this gets a theatrical release in the US. I would pay good money to see this on the big screen
@@zacharyzwickl5860that's very reductive of what Homura is actually doing. She's got actual reasons. I mean considering that she's trying to stop a 14 year old girl from sacrificing her own life for others and forming contacts she can't fully consent to due to her age... Arguably I'd say Homura is kinda in the right to a degree.
If these two girls were adults it might be different. But these are literally just kids, yknow? Severely, severely traumatized kids
@@zacharyzwickl5860in addition, if you think about it, the devil transformation being opposed to modoka's godhood was kinda inevitable when modoka became a god, I feel. Because Madoka's wish requires that she be a concept, the law of cycles.
But that goes against Homura's wish of saving Modoka. Modoka sacrificing herself isn't Homura "saving" Madoka.
So, their wishes are at odds. Which you'd think the Incubators would have had measures for. This can't be the only time magical girls have had opposing wishes, right?
Ι hope this arc will be in 2 or 3 movies and not just one. I would like Homura to be the main villain for an entire movie at least. I think such a premise has potential.
the japanese trailer on youtube has "part 1" in the title
i have no doubt that homura akemi will end up as a bigger threat than the incubators and take the spot of main villain of the franchise. Incubators were the classic type of villains that were dealing with emotions they cannot truly understand, it's only natural that someone who truly feels emotions overcomes them. It's a classic case of a creation overthrowing it's creators.

I love how both the concept movie and this pretty much give that vibe of "Something (everything) is off/wrong" in the entire universe ❤
Like that one track in Rebellion...
Lol I swear I wrote that sentence unintentionally.
My gods, Homura looks so TIRED. One can only imagine what managing a whole world would feel like.
Trying so hard to protect one person, she didn't consider of the responsibility she would have as a goddess....
we're not allowed to die brothers and sisters until the movie is out
I'm obsessed with the phone remix at 0:20
And also my existential crysis i swallowed 10 years ago resurfaced
It is said that during Rebellion, among the 15 Clara Dolls, which were supposed to represent harmful emotions, only 14 appeared, the one missing being Love. Now, between 1:08 and 1:17, only 14 Clara dolls can be seen, which means that the last one has not yet arrived
What about 0:57 this Homura? It could be Love though
Maybe Love is the only positive emotion
There was a theory that Homura herself represents the 15th Clara Doll since she became the devil because of love.
@@YassineFarah2423the supplementary material suggests no one has seen It so It can't be homura
@@isauldron4337 out of curiosity, do you have a link for the supplementary material for that? (or, err, the supplementary material in general? i'm just generally unaware of where all that is lmfao)
although, continuing theory-crafting: it would make sense for it to be said that "no one has seen it" if Homura *is* the doll, since no one would make the connection that that vaguely human looking thing is a Clara Doll.
@@bucketteOfIvy i find it more likely that homura hid the doll
As in she hid her love somewhere

What a cheerful bright looking anime I am sure it will leave me feeling happy and uplifted when I view it…
….
I mean, it is sad, but I don't think it's downlifting.
There is a *chance* this next chapter will have a good ending.
Madoka Magica is a classic. If it's too dark watch a cute uplifting Anime called Made in Abyss. It's a journey of a girl to find her mother.
I have doubts Homura wants a happy ending for herself. Madoka has too much work to do to convince her to rejoin them if she defeats her non lethally.

yeah I couldn't really get into the mobile spinoff either, especially since I wasn't even able to play it for at least a year☹️
Is the piece from this trailer new? I can't seem to find it in any Madoka-related OST's
@@SEELE-ONEYeah it is a new original Walpurgis Rising piece.
Something interesting to point out about Madoka's Witch and Walpurgusnacht (sorry if I misspelt her name) is that if I recall from seeing this show years ago... Both of them are two sides of an hourglass, or resemnle that in design.
This would explain why the movie is named the way it is. Walpurgisnacht has been the main villain since the start, the thing stopping Homura from saving Madoka. After that many retries, how did she not figure out how to kill the Witch?
Because her time loops attached fate to it as well. Think about it, didn't Madoka die killing that thing in the first timeline? The exact time Homura made her wish to protect her? She'd be subconsciously thinking about that creature.
So if Madoka is a God, and Homura was able to capture a god, what about how strong that thing is now that Homura became a deity herself? If Madoka's and Walpurgis' fate/karma is tied to Homura's resets, and Homura rewrote reality with Madoka's power, what can the thing they ALL failed to defeat do by now? That could wipe the planet even before Madoka had enough resets for her witch to be that strong?
Sayaka, Kyoko and Mami definitely got stronger as well. Especially Sayaka with rhe whole "Being Madoka's Aide". She's bandaged up though.
Also what happened to Bebe remains a mystery, I don't see her at all in the trailer.
Madoka's witch is called Kriemhild Gretchen :>
About bebe, she (nagisa) was mentioned in the cast, but yeah, it is interesting that she was not seen anywhere in this trailer
😳 Oh dear…if I understood that correctly then Walpurgisnacht is conceptually tied to those two. And like Madoka was grew stronger with each reset.
…
Shit.
A main point will be trying to figure out what has happened between this movie and Rebellion. This seems to be a direct aftermath of Homura's, well... We'll call it a 'forceful reset'. She's very obviously the demon/god we saw after all that, but just how much time has passed and has she had to do anything else like the 'reset' in that timespan? And she's missing the earring which seemed important.
Especially interesting is who is wielding the bow. I had to watch back a few times and I still can't tell if it's Homura or actually Madoka. The hair seems too long and dark to be Madoka but then it's too short and light to be Homura (even if Homura was to put her hair in a ponytail which it seems the bow wielder has, it's come done farther then that). And the bow is indeed Homura's (which also shares a very similar design profile with the missing earring). I could write off the other changes in the outfit being off as simple design changes which have happened before (with lore significance) and even seen here is a major point of the story for the movie/lore.
But then right after is a scene that is for sure Madoka, see the hair being in pigtails but too straight to be Mami. But it's clearly a nod to school 'self endings' that happen in Japan (schools there famously have/had chain link fences around the roof and leaving the shoes behind was a common thing in 'self endings'). And besides debatably the bow scene, we don't actually have a confirmation of Madoka's magic at all. We only get a shot of her soul gem in the flashback sequence (which also interestingly enough has a Homura with her earring that isn't seen at all in the other shots of Homura for the actual movie).
Walpurgisnacht is full of clockwork gears and shaped like the top half of an hourglass. Madoka's witch before the last episode was shaped like the bottom half.
Headcanon: Walpurgisnacht was witch Homura, going back and forth in time and bringing magical girls into her false utopian dream, just as goddess Madoka goes back and forth in time bringing genuine hope.
This would also create parallelism between Homura fighting her future self Walpurgisnacht, and Madoka fighting and defeating her future witch self as goddess Madoka.
I've never been more hyped in my entire life

To those who now CRAVE more Madoka content:
Give the mangas a try. If you want a general roadmap, read in release order and start with Kazumi Magica. If you really just wanna see the usual cast, read The Different Story for more Kyoko greatness or Oriko Magica and its side books Extra Story and Sadness Prayer.
And if you want something completely different that features the characters, Homura Tamura is a fun read.
@@coreylineberry8557 Tamura confirmed that Homura either grows up plus sized and cute or grows into looking like Junko. Proof it's the best way to experience the character
You can't say to read the mangas without mentionning Wraith Arc !! It takes place between the end of the anime and Rebellion after all, it's like THE one people should read first as it explains some parts of Rebellion !! Although The Different Story is a treat too
@@aloisssssss I say always read in release order. Wraith Arc just comes after most others. Wraith Arc does bother me cause now I want Wraith Arcs for the other mangas(especially Kazumi).
@@jouheikisaragi6075 Yeah, but the stories aren't related, so if someone wants to read only a few manga, might as well read the one that are canon.
And I find it hard to imagine a Wraith Arc existing for any spin-off, not only because of the lack of popularity, but also because their stories would need to be re-written from the start since they rely so much on the witches. Although anyway I disliked Kazumi, Suzune and Oriko so I guess it doesn't change much to me. I only liked Tart as a spin-off with another cast. But that part is just my opinion.

Next year, baby! I wonder how it follows after Rebellion.
As well as some tie-in products from Sony.
11 years since rebellion, 2 years since the teaser, we finally get the sequel🎉
0:14 The Clara dolls!! It's them right??!
Obligatory rewatching rebellion while waiting for this!! SO EXCITED!🎉
At the 0:06 stamp we can clearly see a tarot card (moon sign)and it's meaning is perfectly describing Homuras state
And it goes like this: " The Moon is card of illusion and deception,and therefore often suggests a time when something is not as it appears to be.Perhaps a misunderstanding on your part,or a truth you cannot admit to yourself."
"Let the curtain rise on tonight's dream." Please do, I've been waiting forever for this movie!
0:38 onwards, if you go frame by frame does the English text read "Wraith" and "Legendar Bestie" (sic)? Legendary bestie, truly a title worthy of Homura.
Remembering the Wraiths are in this world yet, how Homura says: If all the Wraiths was destroyed, maybe she destroy the Universe.
Thanks
Fun facts: Demon Homura's big attacks in magia record game are to disable enemy skills and atack. So maybe she weakened all of magical girl powers around her which is why Sayaka didn't regen her face with her ability.
2nd fact: In Madokami's magia record transformation there are multiple of her doing her duty, and we knew it from ep 12 and we know she can be splitted by rebellion. So maybe similarly Homura is splitted because in the stashed tower at the end there are multiple homuras or maybe it's just symbolism or perhaps it's her forms from other timelines.
3rd fact: The character we see looks like a mix of holy quintet. It might be one of homura's familiars or a wraith since wraiths are based on memories and feelings of one. So she can be just a wraith made with Homura's mind or memories. Dangering to remind people what really happened.
AGGHHHHHH I CANT WAIT!!!! The animation has improved so much!! And the soundtrack in this trailer is a banger!!
This looks so promising, The Meguca girls are back!
The animation is eye-catching and seeing how good the previous stuff was I think this movie will be amazing! :)
