* Chapter 10;
** Walpurgisnacht arrives. The HQ and the Kamihama girls unite their forces to destroy her, save the town and every single Magical Girl, combining all their hope into an attack Iroha shoots at Walpurgisnacht. And guess what? ''It works.''
*** The Different Story segment for this chapter has Homura wonder if she should stay in this timeline or hit the ResetButton again, wondering if Madoka wouldn't be in a happier position if she just never contracted. At the end, thanks to the rest of the HQ pitching in, she finally makes her choice: [[spoiler: she wants to believe in this world's future and in hers with Madoka and all her friends. She's finally broken out of the loop and everyone believes they can overcome the Witch problem with all their combined efforts. For that purpose, [[IChooseToStay she decides not to leave this timeline]], allowing her to ''finally'' live in a world where she won't dread having to go back after another failure.]]
** Iroha finally finds Ui! And upon freeing her, Touka and Nemu ''finally'' remember who she and Iroha once were to them. From that point on, their goal solely switches to saving Ui and saving the town.
*** Even better, the flashback reveals the three girls contracted as a result of learning Iroha might become a witch. To reiterate, the game's events happened because Ui, Touka and Nemu wanted to save Iroha from the terrible fate all Magical Girls normally encounter. It's natural for Ui, but it's undoubtedly something when Touka and Nemu founding Magius was originally bound by their friendship with Iroha. And to their credit, they've certainly helped Iroha unleash a Doppel when she needed it the most (granted, it was their fault she was in such a situation, but she still escaped a terrible fate in the long term).


Added DiffLines:

* Touka's side-story reveals a moment in her past where she refused to share her knowledge of space with the rest of her class due to her own inhibitions making her lash out at even the suggestion of it. Iroha's words of wisdom and support eventually get to her and by the end, Touka is thankful enough to leave no doubt she considers her like an older sister and states she loves her as much as loves Ui.

Added DiffLines:

* In "Dreaming Cherry Blossom", Touka and Nemu are court-martialed for their crime as the Magius. They deliberately rig with the trial so the vote that would lighten their sentence don't arrive in time to prevent their execution. All because they think they don't deserve mercy after all they've done, and it's not like other magical girls wouldn't vote for their execution anyway. But they do - even those who think they're unforgivable think they don't deserve death. Touka and Nemu are so touched by this, they practically swear their lives to complete the auto-purification barrier for sake of all magical girls.
** In conjunction with the event, Eternal Sakura's sidestory tells her time when she gathers her Uwasa siblings to discuss about Touka and Nemu's punishment. Anonymous AI and Chelation Land Uwasa ask her how Sana and Tsuruno respectively are doing. Despite the less pleasant experience with the rumor, [[OddFriendship Chelation Land genuinely likes Tsuruno]].
* For the entirety of "Rebel of Dawnless Land" event, Elisa acts as Ui's CoolBigSis. Even before knowing what Ui's purpose in that time period, Elisa protects her, cheers her up, and opens up to everyone for her sake. She's less confrontational than she would normally because Ui softens most of her haughty princess facade.
** Elisa's EstablishingCharacterMoment at the beginning is that [[FatherToHisMen she orders her personal bodyguard retinue to retreat home alive]], despite the soldiers' wish to accompany her, because she knows that ordinary humans are susceptible danger in the place she's going to dive in.
** At the end of the event, Minou gives Ui a SadisticChoice - [[ForegoneConclusion Tart being burned on stake is also the correct history]], would Ui try to find a way to save her or simply accept this course of preordained fate? As Ui agonizes over this, Tart forces Ui's finger to accept the correct history. Inside the limbo of timeline repairing itself, the one who comforts Ui is Cube. He, as best as a "[[HumanityIsInfectious mentally ill]]" Incubator could, says that Tart's death isn't Ui's fault and she should respects Tart's sacrifice by walking forward into the bright future Tart paved its way for. Ui accepts.

* Chapter 4;
** Felicia is a loner mercenary because she's well-known to go berserk in battle without regard of her allies. Iroha takes her in by cooking for her, listening to her side of the story, patiently sticks with her despite her anger issues and advises her a lot of life lessons, forgives her when she temporarily betrayed the group for Magius' sweet promises, and accepts her into Mikazuki Villa. Suddenly, this angry bull in a China shop turns into a very sweet, if slightly temperamental, little girl.

Tsuruno says they're good people and Mitama says it's nice to see enemies behaving like friends.

Ren, spiraling back into depression because she thinks that Rika is avoiding her, is holed up in her school's [=AV=] room, and Rika, wanting to clear things up but also wanting to respect Ren's space, calls her instead of forcing the door open until Ren decides to open the door on her own. Then Rika reveals that the reason why she had been "avoiding" Ren was because she had been busy making her a birthday present: an engraved metal pencil case.

At the very end, despite still not being able to tell Rika her story, Ren manages to say "thank you."
** Speaking of Rika telling Ren her backstory, it becomes obvious to Ren that Rika feels extreme guilt over what she did, and is moved that Rika opened her heart to her. When Rika calls herself a "disgusting human being", Ren emphatically disagrees, assuring Rika that she thinks that she's a good person, which almost moves Rika to tears herself.
