History Heartwarming / PuellaMagiMadokaMagica

[[folder:Episode 3 - I'm Not Afraid of Anything Anymore]]
* Madoka promising to fight alongside Mami. Mami's reaction to this is so heartfelt and happy that you just ''know'' [[TooHappyToLive something bad's about to happen to her]].

[[folder:Episode 5 - There's No Way I'll Ever Regret It]]
* Madoka expresses concern about Sayaka becoming a MagicalGirl particularly after what happened to Mami. Sayaka brushes her off saying that if she hadn't then she would have lost Madoka and Hitomi which she finds to be even scarier and assures Madoka that she wont need to contract because she will protect the city now. It's a Heartwarming moment since it shows just much Sayaka values her friends and ideals that she was willing to sign on to what she knew was a dangerous job.
** Sayaka bringing up the newly-healed Kyosuke up to the roof for a impromptu concert. Kyosuke's parents, nurses, and doctors are all there to see him play his violin again, and you can tell that everyone present knows that they're in the presence of a true miracle. Putting aside her friend's rescue, this one event convinces Sayaka that [[TitleDrop "There's no way I'll ever regret it"]].

[[folder:Episode 7 - Can You Face Your True Feelings?]]
* Kyoko takes Sayaka to her family's old church and tells Sayaka [[DarkAndTroubledPast her backstory]] and why she became a MagicalGirl. She wanted to cheer Sayaka after she learned that her soul gem is a SoulJar and to give her advice on being a magical girl. While Sayaka does decline her offer of becoming more selfish, she does apologize for judging her earlier.
* Regardless of how you feel about her, it is pretty sweet of Hitomi to give Sayaka a chance to confess to Kyosuke before she does. She obviously values their friendship and doesn't want to do anything that could potentially hurt her. Granted, it only makes things worse in the long run but hey, it's the thought that counts, right?

[[folder:Episode 8 - I Was Stupid, So Stupid]]
* Kyoko saves Sayaka from Homura even though it goes against her policy of helping people. Later on, both of them meet up in the subway station and Kyoko's line implies that she went through the trouble of looking for Sayaka all over town. It seems that Kyoko considers Sayaka her friend.

[[folder:Episode 9 - I'd Never Allow That to Happen]]
* Kyoko performs a MercyKill on Witch!Sayaka, along with a HeroicSacrifice. Not because Sayaka couldn't be defeated without one, but because [[TogetherInDeath she didn't want Sayaka to]] [[DyingAlone die alone]].
** Kyoko and Madoka's talks give the girls some sweet bonding time.
* In the end credits, the dark and ominous "Magia" is replaced by the bittersweet "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cH6NB2F-Jcw And I'm Home]]" which is sung by Sayaka and Kyoko's seiyuus. The lyrics perfectly describe their relationship as they sing about how despite being in a rough and lonely place, they find happiness in being together and how they are there for each other.
** Even more depressing is that the song is accompanied by [[https://images.puella-magi.net/f/f0/Madoka_BD_5_Menu_Art_2.jpg?20110828155344 an image]] of the two drowning with Kyoko smiling sadly and gently holding Sayaka close to her.

[[folder:Episode 10 - I Won't Rely on Anyone Anymore]]
* Homura swears to repeat her time-travelling 'eternal maze' as many times as it takes to save Madoka, her only friend. This is after you see what led her to be so cold in this version of the timeline...
** In the original timeline, as Madoka prepares to make one final, [[SuicideMission hopeless]] attack on Walpurgisnacht, she tells Homura that she doesn't regret becoming a magical girl - because doing so allowed her to save Homura's life.
--->''"I made it there just in time when you were attacked by that witch... I'm still proud of that."''
** Timeline 2 starts off as a series of these for Homura. In her second introduction to Madoka, she expresses joy at seeing her friend alive again, she's accepted into Mami's Magical Girl team and then she kills her first witch. Theses are the only times we ever see Homura truly happy in contrast to her usual stoic self in the show until the finale.

[[folder:Episode 11 - The Only Thing I Have Left to Guide Me]]
* Madoka talks her mother into letting her out into the storm and her mother understands her and trusts her enough to let her out.

* Kyoko takes Sayaka to her family's old church and tells Sayaka [[DarkAndTroubledPast her backstory]] and why she became a MagicalGirl. She wanted to cheer Sayaka after she learned that her soul gem is a SoulJar and to give her advice on being a magical girl. While Sayaka does decline her offer of becoming more selfish she does apologize for judging her earlier.
* Regardless of how you feel about her, it was pretty sweet of Hitomi to give Sayaka a chance to confess to Kyosuke before she does.

** Timeline 2 starts off as a series of these for Homura.

Theses are the only times we ever see Homura truly happy in contrast to her usual stoic self in the show until the finale.

-->''One hopes that as he grows, Tatsuya and Homura become close, and can share memories of Madoka... together.''
* Homura, near the end: "You can have it if you want." With everything that ribbon must have meant to her, she still offered it freely and happily, with the most gentle smile. After all the horror and anguish she struggled through, Homura Akemi found peace.

-->''"Even though witches aren't born into this world anymore, that doesn't mean the curses of the world have completely disappeared. They just changed their form is all and now they attack us from the shadows. This world isn't worth saving. Tragedy and sadness will never truly disappear, but even so, it's the place '''she''' once tried to protect. I remember that and I will never ever forget it. That's why... '''I keep fighting.'''"''

* The CompilationMovie version of Episode 12 adds a brief scene where Madoka whips out a handkerchief and cleans the blood off of Homura's face [[spoiler:while she apologises to her for deciding to become a Magical Girl]]. It's both adorable and [[TearJerker sad]].

-->[[spoiler:'''Madoka:''' [[JadeColoredGlasses If someone ever tells me it's a mistake to have hope,]] [[SillyRabbitCynicismIsForLosers well, then, I'll just tell them they're wrong]] [[AllLovingHero and I'll keep telling them 'til they believe.]] [[HopeSpringsEternal No matter how many times it takes]]]].
* [[spoiler: Madoka [[HopeBringer gives hope to other magical girls]] (including the ones from history like Anne Frank, Queen Himiko, Cleopatra, and Joan of Arc), and makes sure the ones who can't be saved will pass on [[GoOutWithASmile smiling peacefully]] instead of despairing and being bewitched.]]
* The scene where Madoka [[spoiler:goes up against Walpurgisnacht, telling the colossal witch, "That's enough. It's alright now. You don't have to hate anyone anymore and you don't have to curse anyone anymore either. I'll go back before you turned into this and take the burden of all your pain."]]

* Afterwards, [[spoiler:Sayaka and Madoka being able to share one last talk before passing on (or ascending to a higher plane of existence depending on how you look at it), which makes Sayaka's fate a little less bitter. (Thank God Kyosuke is shown later recalling her when he's back to music.)]]
* Madoka's little brother Tatsuya [[spoiler: loving his sister enough to remember her, despite the fact that he's barely a toddler ''and'' hadn't been at all involved in the Magical Girl stuff. That's right, his love for his big sister is powerful enough to survive a complete and utter rewrite of the world--''just because'' she was his sister.]]
** [[spoiler:The fact that [[PalsWithJesus Tatsuya's "imaginary" friend is a goddess]].]] Think about that for a minute. ''Aww.''

* Homura, near the end: [[spoiler:"You can have it if you want." With everything that ribbon must have meant to her, she still offered it freely and happily, with the most gentle smile. After all the horror and anguish she struggled through, Homura Akemi found peace.]]
* The fact that [[spoiler:Homura is willing to hang out with and talk to Kyubey in the new timeline, since he honestly doesn't remember the horrible things he had done.]]
* In the final scene just before the credits, Homura steps up to fight a horde of [[spoiler:Wraiths]], and she pulls out [[spoiler:a bow. Madoka's bow]]. She doesn't have [[spoiler:the time-changing shield]] anymore. She doesn't ''need'' it anymore.
** Her monologue that shows her [[spoiler:CharacterDevelopment.]] To sum it up, it shows [[spoiler:someone who is [[JadeColoredGlasses borderline nihilist]] [[AlwaysSaveTheGirl who don't care about anything else but her goal,]] acknowledge that, [[WorldHalfEmpty while the world is far from perfect,]] [[TheAntiNihilist she's still willing to protect it,]] [[TheDeterminator and won't stop doing that.]]]]

* Meta example, with a bit of {{Foreshadowing}}: Remember how Urobochi mentioned his tragedy syndrome in [[Quotes/PuellaMagiMadokaMagica the quotes section]]? [[spoiler: And how the protagonists overcoming it would require a fundamental change in the universe they were in? You finally got that happy ending you wanted, Urobuchi. Good for you.]]

* The end of the Madoka manga. [[spoiler: After the normal ending, there are a few extra pages; Madoka and Homura, who is once again bespectacled and twin-braided, implying all her mental trauma is a thing of the past. Homura apologizes for being such a gloomy friend, and Madoka laughs, assuring her that the two of them will be friends forever.]]
* The Golden Ending in ''VideoGame/PuellaMagiMadokaMagicaPortable''. [[spoiler: EverybodyLives, they come to terms that they're liches and will make the best out of it, Madoka doesn't become a MagicalGirl, and everyone has one big final tea party. It can happen, [[EarnYourHappyEnding you just gotta earn it]].]]
** In one of the extra routes, if Sayaka [[spoiler:[[JustEatGilligan confesses to Kyousuke]] that she's a MagicalGirl, [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qrdJVwVU6iI he'll actually believe her and compose a song for her]], thus averting her tragedy in the canon once and for all.]]
* The various endings in ''VideoGame/GriefSyndrome''. [[spoiler: In either ending where Sayaka dies, it shows Kyoko and Oktavia (Sayaka's witch form) getting along just fine. Also, there are two endings that require the survival of two characters: Madoka / Homura and Sayaka / Kyoko, respectively. [[TheyDo They're wedding scenes.]]]]
** [[spoiler:EverybodyLives. Seeing all five celebrate in joy...]]

* There was a petition to change the official name of NGC 6357, a diffuse nebula in the Scorpius constellation, from the "War and Peace Nebula" to the "Madokami Nebula", due to its [[http://apod.nasa.gov/apod/image/0810/NGC6357_schedler.jpg resemblance]] to [[spoiler: Madoka's goddess form]]. [[AllLovingHero Madoka]] [[HopeBringer Kaname]] has touched the hearts of so many people that they wanted an ''entire celestial formation'' to be named after her.

[[folder:Episode 9 - I Won't Rely on Anyone Anymore]]

* When Website/{{Reddit}} launched its [[https://www.reddit.com/r/place/ r/place]] experiment, several members of the ''Madoka'' subreddit went to help fix up a hastily made [[Anime/PuellaMagiMadokaMagicaTheMovieRebellion "Homura did nothing wrong"]]. In the end, despite the subreddit being relatively small (having less than 6,500 subscribers at the time), it managed to [[https://streamable.com/frrm7 make one of the most well-made sections of the experiment]], embellishing the crudely made message with the girls' Soul Gems, Kyubey, and [[spoiler:Akuma Homura's Dark Mark]], adding sprites of Madoka & Homura and later Sayaka & Kyoko and Charlotte, and defending a sprite made by the LetsPlay/TwitchPlaysPokemon subreddit. /r/anime_irl also joined in helping by making a [[LightNovel/{{Durarara}} Dullahan]] Mami.
