* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2tTPzDZWdho "I'll be with you"]], which played during [[spoiler:Kyoko's sacrifice.]] Also related: [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HVBGoCfm-K4 "I miss you"]], which not only gives [[spoiler: Kyoko's death more weight than the show did]], but allows the transition into Homura's backstory to be much more natural, given the movie is made up of the final episodes and doesn't have breaks.

* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Tdnl0iLmFdI "Another Episode"]] and its remix [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AUhojgXV7l0 "pulling my own weight"]] from the movie previews, by Music/YukiKajiura. It's every bit as mystical and haunting as "Sis puella magica!" and "Decretum" were. Special mention to the rock remix, [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VbFc-bsmQis "for the next episode"]]. Halfway though you get the impression that you're finally free, escaping, and the accompanying image in the video (which is a snapshot from ''WebComic/{{Superego}}'') suggests no less.

* [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0m63g6AnV0A "Confessio"]] ("Confession"), the peaceful music that plays in the scene after the above, when Madoka's mother and teacher are having their conversation, and more importantly, it also plays while [[spoiler:Kyoko]] is telling what her wish was.

** The [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b2Chwj5JEww English fandub]] is incredible.
*** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XSXtTDbvS40 The remake]] somehow takes it UpToEleven!

* [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2VD-09cfiLk "Signum malum"]] ("Bad Sign") is the melancholic track that plays during the ending of the third timeline in Episode 10. If you listen closely, it sounds like a DarkReprise version of "Sis Puella Magica!"

* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eRPePhsswMM "encounter"]], an epic piece less than a minute long.

* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Tdnl0iLmFdI "Another Episode"]] and its remix [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AUhojgXV7l0 "pulling my own weight"]] from the movie previews, by Music/YukiKajiura. It's every bit as mystical and haunting as "Sis puella magica!" and "Decretum" were.

* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Tdnl0iLmFdI "Another Episode"]] and its remixes [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AUhojgXV7l0 "pulling my own weight"]] and [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VbFc-bsmQis "for the next episode"]] (which is essentially a rock remix) from the movie previews, by Music/YukiKajiura. It's every bit as mystical and haunting as "Sis puella magica!" and "Decretum" were.

** The [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7HIoCUgyCaE Slow Version]] of "Magia" is simply magnificent. Bonus points for being a happy SHAFT accident: along with many animation errors, all the BGM used for the TV airing of Episode 1 somehow ended up being played at 92% speed and pitch. This ended up giving "Magia" a darker, more epic tone to it. The fixed release is sometimes seen as a downgrade.

* [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QwquipMpsiQ "Magia"]] ("Magic"), performed by {{Music/Kalafina}}. It functions both as AutobotsRockOut and the EndingTheme.

* [[http://www.jpopsuki.tv/video/ClariS---Connect/49d11dcde6bb436425a55def5a1393b9 "Connect"]], the [[AnimeThemeSong Opening Theme]], performed by {{Music/ClariS}}. Definitely counts for being creatively used by the series, since ItMakesSenseInContext by Episode 10.

* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Tdnl0iLmFdI "Another Episode"]] and its remixes [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AUhojgXV7l0 "pulling my own weight"]] and [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VbFc-bsmQis "for the next episode"]] from the movie previews, by Music/YukiKajiura. It's every bit as mystical and haunting as "Sis puella magica!" and "Decretum" were.

* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eRPePhsswMM "encounter",]] an epic piece less than a minute long.

* [[http://commanderkyubey.tumblr.com/post/56714252147/she-is-a-witch-madoka-magica-movie-ost-i "she is a witch"]] from the Movie Soundtrack. A beautiful track that gives one goosebumps when they listen to it. It plays at the culmination of one of the most heartbreaking and horrifying points in the anime, and captures not only the sense of sorrow and boundless regret, but also of the terrible and foreboding power [[spoiler:that is the final destiny of all magical girls]].
* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mfDuF6_iqGQ "facing the truth #1"]], also from the Movie Soundtrack. A slow yet solemn piece that shows us the despair that Homura is dealing with in order to keep her promise.

* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eRPePhsswMM "encounter"]] an epic piece not even a minute clocking on time.

* [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yvuPEKl8JL8 "facing the truth #1"]], also from the Movie Soundtrack. A slow yet solemn piece that shows us the despair that Homura is dealing with in order to keep her promise.

* [[http://posthardcory.tumblr.com/post/69866720620/swagoka-i-actually-cant-wait-for-the-rebellion "for the next episode"]], from the movie previews, by Music/YukiKajiura. It's every bit as mystical and haunting as "Sis puella magica!" and "Decretum" were.

* [[ "Terror adhaerens"]] ("Adhering Terror") is a very powerful, foreboding and epic song with an apprehensive tone, especially of the second half. It most definitely lives up to its name.

* [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p4xSbSpR9j4 "Anima mala"]] ("Evil Soul"), Kyouko's theme. The slow, dark and foreboding violins fit her savage nature, and give us hints of what she's gone through in her past.

* [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UZS88mMDOqk "Pugna infinita"]] ("Endless Fight"), the haunting and foreboding theme that plays during Episode 6's WhamLine.
* [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Jgn1NEq2DiA "Pugna cum maga"]] ("Battle with a Witch") and [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u6WSD59nYAU "Agmen clientum"]] ("Army of Clients"), two more battle themes.
* [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vlnxMZwxIlI "Gradus prohibitus"]] ("Forbidden Steps"), played when we were introduced to the world of witches for the first time.
* [[https://soundcloud.com/mido-kuma/pergo-pugnare "Pergo pugnare"]] ("I Will Continue to Fight"), is the beautiful, hopeful and uplifting violin piece that plays during conclusion of the series, when Homura decides to continue on fighting for Madoka's sake.

* [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ce7StFIoaOs "Terror adhaerens"]] ("Adhering Terror") is a very powerful, foreboding and epic song with an apprehensive tone, especially of the second half. It most definitely lives up to its name.

* [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vlnxMZwxIlI "Gradus prohibitus"]] ("Forbidden Steps"), played when we were introduced to the world of witches for the first time. Bringing a desert to mind and eerie, this song will send chills down your spine.

* [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vlnxMZwxIlI "Gradus prohibitus"]] ("Forbidden Steps"), played when we were introduced to the world of witches for the first time.

* [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VSv72WXL4k8 "Conturbatio"]] ("Disorder") is played when Sayaka is considering becoming a magical girl.
** [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HcgEHrwdSO4 "Decretum"]] ("Decision"), Sayaka's DarkReprise, is just as tragic-sounding. It is frequently lauded as one of the best songs off the ''Madoka Magica'' soundtrack.

* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KWr0zYl7L4Y The light instrumental version]], which has been [[http://thehappinessmachine.tumblr.com/post/163675321448/i-read-the-human-game-today-and-honestlyahh suggested]] by a tumblr user for ''Webcomic/TheHumanGame''.

* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WqQ3hP_q7Ns "Credens justitiam"]] ("Believe in Justice"), Mami's theme, is just pure awesome and eminent victory music. And the [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0QEa4TiHDBA NicoNico version]], arguably the more well-known theme of the two. Who thought [[CanisLatinus gibberish]] could sound so ''majestic''?

* [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tnjwwTzadRw "Mirai"]] ("Future"), a new version of "Credens Justitiam" that {{Music/Kalafina}} made for the movie.
