* MeaningfulRename: [[spoiler: [[FanNickname Ho]][[AscendedMeme mu]][[LesYay li]][[DeterminedDefeatist lly]]]]
** PunnyName: The ''higan'' in ''higanbana'' (spider lily) can also be construed as a Buddhist euphemism for nirvana, which has a matching term for samsara [[spoiler:that is also Homulilly's "nature" as a witch]].

* ShoutOut: Her real form may be based on the Pincushion Man from the 1935 American cartoon, ''WesternAnimation/BalloonLand,'' and also bears some resemblance to the true form of [[{{WesternAnimation/Coraline the Other Mother]].

* HappyPlace: [[spoiler:She is said to dream of ideal things. Her witch barrier seems to be a representation of an imaginary world where Mami would be happy -- a tea party that never ends and friends who will never leave her. But it's all a delusion.]]

* LethalChef: Don't eat the food at her tea party, because it will remove your soul.
* MeaningfulName: She is apparently named after [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Candlemas Candlemas]], which may be a StealthPun - it's on [[GroundhogDayLoop Groundhog Day]].

* {{Youkai}}: Ophelia's familiars are based on the rokurokubi.

!Madoka Kaname

!Homura Akemi

!Sayaka Miki

!Mami Tomoe

* ButtMonkey: [[spoiler:Dies or at least has a chance of dying in every route but the bonus one. But then, given her fate in the anime, is it a suprise?]]

!Kyouko Sakura

* MeaningfulRename: [[spoiler:Ophelia]]

!Kyubey

!Witches

* CreepyDoll: Albertine. Candeloro's familiars [[spoiler:which resemble Madoka and Kyoko as maids]] may also count.
* DopplegangerAttack: Ophelia creates clones of herself. [[spoiler:This alludes to a drama CD where it's revealed Kyoko had this power, too, but lost it when her family died.]]
* FlamingHair: Of sorts -- Ophelia's head is literally a lit candle.
* FunSize: Candeloro is the tiniest witch yet, even smaller than Charlotte--she's little enough to fit into [[spoiler:one of her own teacups]].
** VisualPun: That's small enough to be [[spoiler:''[[OnceDoneNeverForgotten bite-sized]]''.]]
* HeadlessHorseman: Ophelia evokes this. From a distance, it looks like her head is the fire itself. Looking closely, it becomes clear that the "neck" has an eye on it, and it is her actual head.

* MeaningfulName: Ophelia is a reference to ''Theatre/{{Hamlet}}''. Candeloro is apparently named after [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Candlemas Candlemas]], which may be a StealthPun - it's on [[GroundhogDayLoop Groundhog Day]].
* MechanicalMonster: Gisela is a transforming robot made of motorcycle parts that can cloak herself in a whirlwind.
* MookMaker: The Witches in general are this, but special mention to Charlotte's first form that has no other attack except for spawning unlimited Pyotr until her lifebar is drained.
* TokenGoodTeammate: Candeloro is stated to be a kindhearted and inviting witch who only attacks whenever intruders in her barrier try to leave.
* TransformingMecha: Gisela can transform into a motorcycle-like form.
* TheUnfought: [[spoiler:Homulilly.]]
* {{Youkai}}: Ophelia's familiars are based on the rokurokubi.

* CanonForeigner: The game has several original witches, such as Candeloro and Ophelia, [[spoiler:the witch forms of Mami and Kyoko, respectively.]] There's also a witch that has Kyubey's head and uses giant stuffed Kyubeys as familiars, and [[spoiler:another witch that resembles a BrainInAJar and is said to be from another planet.]]

Similar to Sayaka's in that she's found by someone, shows her tainted Soul Gem and has a few last words, but for different reasons and what turns her into Candeloro in her route:]]
