And so a legend was born
  • 焰的盾可以儲藏無限多的武器, 從裏面大量的手槍、輕機槍、滑膛槍、火箭彈發射器和成包的彈藥即可看出. 值得注意的是,她的盾相當的小,可以戴在手腕上, 更像是一塊手錶. 因此,她的盾很可能是從Time Lord 的技術中得到的靈感.支撐這個觀點的論據相當明顯 - 她自身的魔力是基於時間操作的,因此很可能存在聯繫。
  • (ほむほむ)最早由粉絲群體所使用, 現已被業界所接收並受到歡迎,成為了 官方語言和用法的一部分.
  • 有時被開玩笑的比作 "Homurika" ,由於和 古手梨花 (寒蟬鳴泣之時) 做着類似(穿越許多時間軸以避免悲劇)的輪迴.
  • 在一個早期手稿中, 她的姓被寫作暁海而不是暁美。兩者都讀成 Akemi.
  • 在早期的時間軸中的焰, 由於性格和行為的原因, 在西方的粉絲中經常被叫做 "Moemura" 。
  • Apparently there is a rumor on the net that some weapons went "missing" at the JSDF and US military bases in Japan. There is only one official report regarding the missing/stolen weapons. It is not known if the rumors of the stolen missing weapons inspired their appearance in the series. Nor is there any evidence indicating that the perpetrator was a time traveling magical girl.
  • One fan estimates that Homura used ¥ 1,383,040,300 Yen worth of military weaponry & equipment (that's $17,037,114 USD in today's dollars).[1]
  • Homura's appearance in episode 12 (in the new timeline) from the manga is different than her appearance from the anime. In the anime, her clothes and hairstyle remain the same, with Madoka's ribbon as her accessories. However, in the manga, she wears a new dress, changes her hairstyle to two pigtails with the ribbons Madoka gave her.
  • In Audio commentary for Episode 4, Urobuchi liked Chiwa Saitou for the role because she had a "Dark Beauty" feeling.
    • Episode 7的副音軌中, 齋藤千和 解釋說她最初嘗試的角色是QB和恭介,直到虛淵玄說服她嘗試焰這個角色.
      • 齋藤千和認為焰是一個既堅強又纖弱的少女.悠木碧補充說焰沒有別的選擇,只能讓自己變得堅強。
        • 新谷良子認為一個角色有着想要守護的人或事物是正確的.
  • Some pages from the Puella Magi Production Note refer to Homura's attack on Walpurgisnacht as "Pytha-homu Switch", a reference to the complicated Rube Goldberg machines featured on the Japanese children's show "Pythagorean Switch".
  • In the Puella Magi Madoka Magica Official Guidebook "You Are Not Alone" Hanokage jokingly describes Homura as "Hommando" in her After-Recording Report comic, because of the excessive vast arsenal of weaponry she unleashes in Episode 11. Apparently the smörgåsbord of weaponry was added later, they were not originally depicted in the early stages of the screenplay.
  • 齋藤千和 (焰) 陳述說Episode 8 中的哭泣場景給她留下了很深的印象。她認為他們完美的把握住了少女的內心感受, 特別是焰崩潰的瞬間, 體現出了她作為女孩子的柔弱一面.
  • Episode 11的評論音軌中,齋藤千和 (焰) 認為這個場景十分感人、煽情, 給她留下了極深的印象. 她表示自己流下了眼淚.
    • 悠木碧 (圓) 覺得這個場景令人驚嘆,讓她無法平靜. 她覺得她和圓在這個感人的場景中產生了共鳴.悠木碧相信,圓接受了焰的心意.
  • In Persona 4 Arena, Yukiko Amagi has a palette swap for Homura.

TV本篇、小說及廣播劇

File:Timeline Chart.png
The sequences of events in each timeline.

有魔女的舊世界(TV以及劇場版前篇+後篇)

在動畫中,焰的輪迴是從某一月的14日開始的(推測為三月到四月之間的某時). 她14日出院, 於25日轉學到見瀧原中學. 在最初的時間軸上,她被魔女襲擊並為圓和麻美所救.在之後那個月的某一時刻, during Walpurgisnatch,她以將自己和圓的邂逅重頭來過為願望成為了魔法少女, 得到了停止時間和輪迴這一個月的能力。

據推測,焰在TV的時間軸之前將這從14日開始的一個月時間輪迴了近一百次. 在這些時間軸里, 焰逐漸的提高了自己的能力,並為了和魔女之夜一戰準備必要的物品(比如日本軍火庫里的武器和彈藥). 她還通過對所有時間軸中可能發生的重要事件的統計數據的記憶與推斷, 得到了有關大多數對手的難以想像的知識. 然而,從這也可以推斷出,焰一次又一次的目睹了同伴們死去的慘狀.在一次又一次的輪迴中,焰和圓的距離變得越來越遙遠.

在TV時間軸中,焰表現成一個遠離眾人的冷漠而工於心計的角色. 她沒能救下任何一個同伴 (除了圓), 在魔女之夜來臨時, 不得不孤身一人面對它. 在與魔女之夜一戰中戰敗, 在被圓救下並許願改寫宇宙之前即將敗給絕望。

有魔獸的新世界(TV以及劇場版後篇)

在圓修改過的新世界裏, 焰是唯一一個保有之前的宇宙中有關圓的記憶的人. 她得到了圓的髮帶, 以及一個與圓的武器類似的黑色的弓作為武器.不確定她是否保有操縱時間的能力. 焰和QB的關係看上去變得親近, 以至於她甚至信賴的訴說了有關舊宇宙運行的一切.

"毫無疑問,這裏是魔女的結界."

The Rebellion Story中, 焰被 Incubators捕獲, 她的靈魂寶石被放置於一個與圓環之理隔絕的孤立力場中. This strain led Homura to transform partially into a witch without her knowledge.在這個形態下,她無意識的創造了一個迷宮——一個見瀧原的幾乎完美的仿製品, 並將之前熟識的人拉入其中.她甚至把與沙耶加和 百江渚一同進入了結界的圓拉離了圓環之理。在這個夢幻般的世界裏,焰無意識的改寫了幾乎所有人的記憶(也包括她自己),因而她們相信自己活在實際存在的世界中,與叫做夢魘的新敵人戰鬥 。為了阻止孵化者實現他們的計劃, 圓把她的力量託付給沙耶加和渚. 沙耶加只是裝作記憶被修改過的樣子,而渚把自己偽裝成了 Charlotte/Bebe.

焰最終發現了自己被囚禁在魔女結界中並試圖找出幕後黑手。在行程即將結束時與圓的對話讓她意識到自己不能接受圓的犧牲。從這時起她意識到了自己是製造這個結界的魔女,並通過使身體遠離靈魂寶石而未產生任何後果得到了確認。 在這個時候QB出現並解釋了焰的現狀與孵化者們想要支配圓環之理的計劃。這使得焰開始發狂並詛咒自己,使自己完全成為魔女Homulilly。圓和其他的魔法少女試圖通過破壞容納她們的孤立力場來拯救焰,讓她們回到現實世界。由於孤立力場的原因,焰只能在她的靈魂寶石內部成為魔女,等待圓的拯救。 圓神想要將焰接走,成為圓環之理的一部分。但在那之前,焰抓住了圓。她的靈魂寶石變黑,隨後被渚口中的比詛咒還要可怕的顏色翻卷着充滿。真實世界從焰將圓從她的神格中剝離出的一刻開始崩壞。那種顏色從她的靈魂寶石中噴湧出來,與裂痕一同充滿了整個宇宙。 焰和QB在圓於12話中進入的場景重新出現。焰用嘴咬碎了她的靈魂寶石,隨後出現了被稱為Dark Orb的寶石。QB驚呼焰改寫了宇宙,並詢問她的靈魂寶石發生了什麼。焰解釋說她想起了以前無數次輪迴中的一切,自己所承受的一切傷害和痛苦都是為了圓。她說現在連這份痛苦都讓她無比憐惜,污染着她靈魂寶石的是比詛咒更深層次的東西。在她吞下Dark Orb的一刻,她把它稱為人類感情的極致:愛。

焰變成了新的形態並長出了一對黑色翅膀。QB認為焰已經不再是魔法少女或魔女了,並詢問焰究竟達到了何種境界。焰認為自己貶低並侵蝕了神明,大概只能被稱為惡魔(akuma)了。QB認為利用人類的感情過於危險而試圖逃離,但被焰抓住並告知,焰仍需要它們來處理世間的詛咒。

劇場版新篇(叛逆的物語)的新世界

警告,本段落包含劇透.

"我現在確實連魔女都不是了。將那個和神明對等的聖潔之物貶低和侵蝕,能做出那種事情的存在,除了「惡魔」之外已經找不到別的稱呼了吧?."

焰成功的成為了新世界的神。拋去作為惡魔的實際身份,她還在現實世界中以人類的形態存在,可以和任何人正常的交流。她似乎有着隨心所欲操縱任何人記憶的能力,但能力的規模未知。焰被認為是象徵「愛」的神明(而圓象徵的是希望)。 焰現在擁有着圓神的一部分——特別指出,是鹿目圓在成為圓環之理前的部分。有暗示她現在把世間的詛咒轉移到QB身上。儘管她把自己稱作惡魔,圓,沙耶加,杏子,麻美和渚都在她的新世界裏過上了幸福的生活。

推測

下面是推測章節,太特麼長了

Template:Theory/Header

  • 在最初的兩話中,焰看上去像是一位反面角色。之後才弄清她只是想阻止圓成為魔法少女。她曾經多次救下圓和沙耶加,並可能在未來成為圓的導師和/或同伴。
  • 她想阻止圓成為魔法少女的原因也可能是因為圓會成為無比強大的魔女。
  • Episode 5中,以杏子的攻擊突然打到地面,沙耶加離開了攻擊範圍來體現焰救下了沙耶加。這個能力看上去與空間轉移相比更像是大規模加速(這是因為她回溯/停止時間的能力,並因此可以通過短暫的時間停止來迅速的從一點移動到另一點),如同split second中表現的一樣。由於之前有着魔法少女的能力與願望有關的提示(比如沙耶加的再生能力),這可能是焰的真實動機的線索。在Episode 8中得到了證實,焰的能力與時間有關。
    • 理論得到證實:她的能力是停止時間,願望與時間有關。

Template:Theory/Footer

Template:Theory/Header

  • Homura's wish was to protect Madoka, and since wishes always come true, it should make her immune from death and becoming a witch before saving Madoka. This makes her doomed to be locked in this cycle. In one timeline she was almost successful, but Madoka sacrificed herself for the sake of Homura and caused another restart.
    • Theory proven wrong: Homura controls when and if she rewinds time, so long as one month as passed since the last reset.)
  • Per the image in the gallery below, the pipe layout on the corridor wall is completely different after Homura uses her 'teleportation' ability. Assuming this is not a production error, it has been suggested that the ability actually involves magically reconstituting the entire corridor while moving the people in it around. For more information, please refer to the entry on this phenomenon in the Magical Powers speculah.
    • Theory proven wrong: her power has nothing to do with that, it was a production error.
  • Homura may be a homunculus created by Madoka.[8]
  • Homura might be in possession of the soul gems of magical girls from an alternate timeline, such as the alternate Madokas. See also Speculah:Homura Identity Swap Theory (though note the identity swap theory has been debunked).
    • Theory proven wrong: Soul Gems disappear when their owner dies or become Grief Seeds.
  • One of the speculations as for why Homura does not tell Madoka upfront of the consequences of becoming a magical girl, is because Madoka might just become one in order to save Homura or Mami. This could also be the reason why she's trying to keep a distance between her and Madoka.
    • Theory proven wrong: she was doing it to stop Madoka per her promise.
  • Homura may be Walpurgis Night. As Homura's powers involved time manipulation it could very well be that we are seeing a witch version of Homura warped back into the past ironically becoming the very event that has shaped her reason for making a contract. Walpurgis Night has been depicted with clock-like gears underneath her dress. Episode 11 also depicts Walpurgis Night having a primary color of purple, which is also Homura's color. While the end of the series shows Homura losing her shield, after the credits we are shown Homura during an unknown time period, though having Madoka's ribbons, battling. Before Homura starts the fight, she hears Madoka offer words of encouragement as Homura gives up a final smile, which may signal Homura being consumed with despair. The final shot shows the main heroines, overlapped with multiple silhouettes of the heroines, which could allude to the familiars summoned by Walpurgis Night in episode 11, before showing Homura's soul gem.
    • More to this is that it's actually a fact that Kriemhild Gretchen and Walpurgisnacht where designed, to be two halves of a whole, at least as far as physical character design goes. Because of that they form an hour glass. Now, One thing that really stands out is Gretchen, go take a look at her body if you haven't. Now this is really a strange witch for Madoka to become. Most witches have at least something in common with their original wish and past, but all Madoka appears to be is this stringy black mess, What could explain this? Well, if we accept that Walpurgisnacht nacht is in fact Homura's witch, sighting the gears and Homura's lack of a time barrier, It then follows that Homura's and Madoka's witches form the hour glass. The implications of that would not be trivial, To start with, Homura is the very cause of Madoka's power and potential as a magical girl, How does she do this? time loops, as Kyuubey explained, each loop makes Madoka's past bleaker and bleaker, We already know that blackness is despair incarnate since we see it build up in soul gems, Gretchen is of course VERY black. In addition to that, Gretchen is also made up of many tendrils of threads, It would seem that if she is the bottom of the hour glass, then It's plausible that the threads represent the very threads of time that Madoka is caught up in, Walpurgisnacht, if Homura, would then be intimately connected to Gretchen, the very cause of her power, each twist of time by Homura perhaps dropping those threads, symbolic of their relationship to one another.
      • Theory proven wrong: Homura's witch form is Homulilly.

Template:Theory/Footer

Template:Theory/Header

  • Homura may actually be Faust, as Faust in the play tries all his might to save Gretchen (Madoka) from dying but in the end she perishes anyways as Mephistopheles (QB) tries to tempt her to form a contract with him.
    • There's also the fact that in the Goethe version, Faust would only lose his soul if he ever had a moment of perfect happiness that made him wish he could stop time at that moment forever. Homura's power, of course, is to stop time. As such, it's entirely possible that the Homura and Faust parallels will be taken to its logical conclusion: She will have a moment of perfect happiness, she will stop time at that moment, and then she will die or become a witch. However, it should be mentioned that Faust manages to escape Mephistopheles and enter heaven because he found his moment of happiness in helping others, and not in anything Mephistopheles gave him. On the other hand, there is a witch that tries to create heaven on Earth.
    • In the story of Faust, the devil grants him "magical powers" for 24 years, "one year for each hour of the day," and the deal was at the end of the "24 years," the devil would claim his soul. Homura's "weapon" is an hourglass, and her hourglass can reset time by one month. Given the strong parallels to Faust, and how at the end of the last loop, Homura was about to lose her soul (by giving in to Kyuubey's master plan and her Soul Gem becoming corrupted), it is entirely probable that her loop lasted for a total of 24 months/loop attempts as a reasonable conservative estimate, and the full Faustian 24 years as a more gruesome estimate. Given how radically her personality has changed since the first loop attempt, and how she seems to have memorized most of the key events of the loop, 24 months seems like a plausible number.
  • Homura shows some very different powers in episode 12. While this may be a by-product of the new world, it is also possible she always had these powers and simply did not use them in favor of her less magic-consuming time-stopping.
    • Given the fact that she no longer has her shield on her wrist, it is most likely that her powers have changed altogether.
      • Her shield was shown to be completely out of sand during the fight with Walpurgis Night. As we know, the only way for her to get more sand again is to reset the timeline (flip the hourglass). Since the timeline wasn't actually reset by her, even in new timeline, her shield would still be completely out of sand, and therefore, useless as anything but a hunk of steel on her arm. It makes sense she wouldn't use it anymore, then.
        • Considering her wish was to protect Madoka, one could believe her shield shows her resolve to protect. Its turning to sand in the Walpurgis Night fight represents her inability (and indeed, her failure) to protect Madoka. When she flips the hourglass, gaining more sand represents the fact she can protect Madoka again. Her not having it in the new timeline shows that she doesn't need to protect anyone anymore.
      • As for the source of her new powers, speculations abound; lead amongst them is that she got Madoka's bow from her at the same time that Madoka fixed her Soul Gem and gave her her ribbon. Another theory is that since her wish was to "protect Madoka," and Madoka is now a concept rather than a person, her powers were altered into something similar to what Madoka uses. Yet another theory is that with the universe restarted, Homura made a different wish, and so got different powers. Yet another theory is that Homura was always able to produce a bow; after all, her original concept artwork depicted her with that weapon. She just hadn't figured out how, or alternatively, just hadn't bothered, since stopping time is more efficient.
        • My (slightly poorly-founded) theory is that her wish was to know what Madoka was (which explains why she can suddenly tell Kyubey everything) - if that's true, her having a bow represents her bond with the concept of Madoka. Kind of similar to your point.
  • The reason why Homura can't prevent Madoka from being a magic girl may be interpreted that it is Madoka's being magic girl that makes Homura become magic girl. If Homura really did, there will be a paradox. But effect can't change the cause. Therefore,no matter how many times she tries, she is destined to fail.
    • Another evidence may support this idea. In the end of episode 12, Homura is still a magic girl and she know the existence of Madoka. Because it is Homura's being magic girl and her trying hundreds of times to save Madoka that gives Madoka the ability to become Madokami. Even Madokami can't change what she is based on to exist. The effect can't change the cause.

不同的宇宙

There are some bizarre elements that haven't been properly addressed in the anime series. In one case is the issue that the production notes state that in one timeline Kyousuke was a guitarist. It was never addressed in the Anime but in the alternate-Oktavia's witch card does mention a guitar, and we have no reason to assume it refers to anyone but Kyousuke. On this reason Kyousuke as a guitarist is considered to be canon. One possible explanation for this is that Homura is not only going back in time but also going to 平行宇宙 (different universes) contained within the 多元宇宙.

Gen Urobuchi stated that he didn't really think too much about the mechanics of Homura's time loops, so the nature of Homura's power is not only a mystery, but it is not fully understood not even by the creative source.

There are ways to explain the change in instrument using only time travel. Perhaps someone made a wish that changed Kyousuke's past, and the effects persisted in future timelines because the wish changed events that happened before the point where the timelines diverged, when Homura woke up in the hospital. Kyousuke might be proficient with both instruments, and some event during the time loop period might inspire him to prefer one over the other. However, these speculations are based on guesswork, since the show's creators have not yet provided details.
