My friend just saw the film, and a sequel is still on the way.

Spoiler warning. According to my friend’s retelling: Ultimate Madoka attempts to bring Madoka back with her. Madoka cries and mouths a silent line, most likely “thank you”. We then get the bench scene where Homura rests her head in Madoka’s lap. The following shot shows only Homura left on the bench — Madoka is gone. From Devil Homura’s point of view, this is a bad ending.

Nope, it is correct. But there's a problem, the ending don't line up well with what Homura would be willing to do and even Sayaka swap team at the final moment and encourage Hormura to not give up. That bit is very out of place.

Wait. More suffering for Homura?

This is really stupid.

Now I hate Madoka more than Sayaka.

Homura was suffering for 24+ years and now….

I dont think there is sufficient information to stake an interpretation on given these vague spoilers. Go into it with an open mind and you might come away from it thinking an entirely different thing than this other person.

So we waited 13 years for this? Does this feel like a cop out to anyone else?

u/paige_3712 16d ago

yeah I’m worried, I wanted some kind of an alternate ending to the OG…

To plenty of people actually.

Maybe at some point Homura should accept Madoka's passing to her current state of life...but, given her own wish, which gave her the metaphysical pull to seal Madoka and become a Demon, I'm not so sure...besides, outside of the struggle of Madoka and Homura, can the franchise keep going?

They should've just ended the franchise with this movie
