History Characters / TheSoulmateTimeline

* AboveGoodAndEvil: Her views on the 'selfless and selfish' wishing debate are pretty much this. Most wishes would have some degree of both in them and most wishes one could call 'selfish' have perfectly understandable motivations (such as Kyoko not wanting her and her family to starve behind wanting her papa to be listened to) and it seems like there is little correlation between the types of wish one makes and how much regrets one has (such as Mami having far more regret for wishing to save her life than Madoka for wishing to save a cat despite how one is objectively more reasonable than the other). What you wish for doesn't matter, you have to regret it as little as possible to live as a Magical Girl.

* TheUnreveal: While Homura has seen her Witch form in past timelines and [[spoiler:Hitomi does hear it talk to her in chapter 13]], ultimately what sort of Witch Hitomi would become is unseen and unspecified. The name of the Witch is known however, being Coppelia.

* AdaptationalSexuality: Rampant RomanticTwoGirlFriendship and ShipTease aside, canonically of the five of them only Sayaka is explicitly confirmed to have a interest in either sex with her crush on Kyosuke. Here, the author confirms that Madoka, Sayaka and Mami are bisexual while Homura and Kyoko are lesbians.

* CallingYourAttacks: Tiro Spade (shooting her sword's blade out) Taglio Oceano (enhancing her sword's cutting power with magic for one powerful slash), and eventually Tempesta Di Spade (a StormOfBlades) per Oriko (who predicted it in this timeline) and Homura (who's seen her use it in other timelines).

* PresentAbsence: With Nagisa alive and well, there is no Charlotte present in the current timeline. However the memory of her is a frequent topic of Homura's thoughts.

* InnateNightVision: One of her powers is to see clearly in the dark, though she implies its a power that any Magical Girl could learn to do. She just figured out how to better chase down her victims, such as [[spoiler: Sayaka and a heavily wounded Madoka.]]

* BloodKnight: Her fight with Homura simply leaves her excited for more, which Homura doesn't reciprocate, and she expresses a desire for Mami to come to Kamihama so they can a "proper" battle with nothing held back.

* CallingYourAttacks: Tiro Spade (shooting her sword's blade out) and eventually Tempesta Di Spade (a StormOfBlades) per Oriko (who predicted it in this timeline) and Homura (who's seen her use it in other timelines).

* TheGhost: Mentioned by Candeloro and thought of by Homura often enough, and she appears on Homulilly's teapot, but Oktavia has yet to physically appear. With Sayaka only contracting in Chapter 13, she likely didn't really exist until that point in the current timeline.

[[folder:Walpurgisnacht]]
The Stage-constructing Witch. A massive Witch known as a living disaster that comes to Mitakihara at the end of Homura's timeloops. Though in the current timeline it may have different origins....

* RecurringBoss: If a Witch comes up in Homura's thoughts that isn't one of her Soulmates or Walpurgisnacht, it tends to be Charlotte, and she has several of her Grief Seeds to prove it.

* AdorableAbomination: While Mami doesn't know what Homulilly is, at best wondering if she's some of Id, she does think she's very huggable.

* CultureBlind: Homura knows very little pop culture, barely knowing what ''Star Wars'' is and having no idea what Sute's 'Shonen Manga' powers even are or what Sayaka meant in one timeline when she believed Homura to be a pod person. She's also the only one of the four talking who don't know anything about Alina Gray's art, something ''Yuma'' has heard of. She's more aware of Marvel comics, but that is seemingly due to dealing with a comicbook-themed Witch regularly. She does get a crash course in Shonen Manga from Sayaka after fighting Sute, enough to [[ItMakesSenseInContext to correct Sayaka that she's a Genin, not a Chunin.]]

->'''Mami:''' Madoka....Walpurgisnacht is a legend, a nightmare, told among Magical Girls for centuries. The most powerful Witches are called Walpurgisnacht. They say they are created when multiple Witches merge together, though no one knows for sure. Witches are not well understood, and I've never tried studying them. That would endanger people's lives. But wherever a Walpurgisnacht does appear, massive amounts of death always follows.

* UnadoptableOrphan: Homura recounts she was never adopted because she was a 'different' child, a 'weirdo orphan'. While she doesn't have a term for it, subtext and comments by the author imply this was because of her autism.

* TheDreaded: No Magical Girl whose ventured into Asunaro has returned, leading to even desperate Magical Girls giving them as wider of a berth as possible.

* TheDreaded: Very few Magical Girls don't fear and dread encountering Walpurgisnacht,. and many of those that don't have never heard of it. Its been called a living apocalypse.

* PsychologicalProjection: Can fall into this sometimes, such has having trouble understanding why Sasa Yuuki would hide her powers because she couldn't imagine doing so herself.

* CrossoverRelatives: Has a cousin living in Sorashido named [[Anime/HirogaruSkyPrettyCure Sora.]]

* UnadoptableOrphan: Homura recounts she was never adopted because she was a 'different' child, a 'wierdo orphan'. While she doesn't have a term for it, subtext and comments by the author imply this was because of her autism.

** Kyubey showing Nagisa Homura and Mami's battle with the Witch and introducing her to them, allows Nagisa to end being mentored by Mami instead of being a victim of Akasuki like she was planning. Causing Akasuki to have to completely change her plans to get a new target while giving the group someone who knows that she is even around and alive.

* BoobBasedGag: As she's the most well-endowed of the main five girls, a lot of jokes are made at the expense of her bust. Mami herself is not above them.

* EveryoneHasStandards: Kyoko is very careful not to swear in front of small children, in contrast to her generally crass language. When she's around Yuma and Nagisa she'd rather sound completely ridiculous than use bad language.

* NotInFrontOfTheKid: Kyoko replaces her swearing whenever she's around Nagisa or Yuma. [[LadySwearsALot Considering she's one of the most foul-mouthed characters]] around, this crops up a lot. After moving into the Kaname residence, she also applies this standard this around Tatsuya.

* AdorableAbomination: Her doll form might be a Witch and thus the representation of suffering and pain and very dangerous, but Mami thinks it would make a very cute plushie for her younger charges.

* PresentAbsence: With Nagisa alive and well, there is no Charlotte present in the current timeline. However the memory of her is nearly always on Homura's mind.

** The fact that Sayaka was holding on to Madoka's hand when Homura [[TimeStandsStill froze time]] in order to have herself and Mami arrive before Madoka could be harmed, which [[MoveInTheFrozenTime made her unaffected by the time stop]] is what causes Sayaka to find out about magic.

* AdaptationalSexuality: Rampant RomanticTwoGirlFriendship and ShipTease aside, canonically of the five of them only Sayaka is explicitly confirmed to have a interest in either sex with her crush on Kyosuke. Here, WordOfGod confirms that Madoka, Sayaka and Mami are bisexual while Homura and Kyoko are lesbians.

** Madoka is attracted to women, as is her mother (who is bisexual). WordOfGod confirms that Madoka is also bisexual.
