Glad to see you guys react to this! It's always so fun to see folks' first reactions to Rebellion. And yeah, it IS kind of confusing on your first go around! There are a lot of threads to keep track of. You guys asked for some explanation on things, so here's my attempt to help: The series happens; Madoka recreates the world, which puts Homura, Kyoko, and Mami in the new world with Wraiths. In this world, magical girls have their gems cleansed upon death, which prevents them from becoming Witches. Sayaka isn't there because Madoka takes her along to become part of the Law of Cycles (so it's the same Sayaka we see in the series turn into a witch and die; Bebe, who was also a witch, is also taken along). In this world, Homura is the only one who remembers Madoka or the concept of Witches, but she tells Kyube about them, which is the catalyst for this movie. Homura eventually falls into despair, but the incubators isolate her gem so that she cannot be visited by the Law of Cycles/Madoka. They do this because they want to understand how Madoka works, so that they can fuck up the Law of Cycles because they like the Witch system better, lol. Even though that means magical girls meet terrible ends, it makes a huge amount more energy, so to them it's more efficient. Homura becomes a witch inside her soul gem because it cannot break and turn into a grief seed. I think the most important thing to understand in this movie, especially when it comes to Homura's motivations at the end, would be the scene in the field of flowers where Madoka is braiding her hair. When Homura describes life after Madoka ascended, Madoka says she'd never choose to do something like that; she loves everyone too much and says she's too cowardly to choose to leave everyone she cares about. We now know that this is the real Madoka (she just cant remember she's a god and made a wish to become one) - because Homura can also feel this is the case, she sees it as Madoka confessing that she would never choose to make the wish she did at the end of the series. If she was never put in that position, she would not sacrifice herself. This confirms to Homura that the way things ended up for Madoka is just as bad as she always felt it was, and Madoka was never truly saved. Homura say something like 'I understand now, I never should have allowed that to happen!'. That's why, at the end of the movie, Homura feels justified in tearing away the human part of Madoka from her godhood, though that fundamentally changes the Law of Cycles and thus the fabric of Madoka's reborn reality. Her love for Madoka and now ingrained desire to 'save' her has twisted so that she feels this is the only 'good' and 'fair' way to keep Madoka safe and happy. To her, Madoka confessed she would not want to become a god seperated from everyone she cares about, which means that Homura could not be satisfied with Madoka to take her along with her, even if it meant they were together forever. Homura's fixation is with Madoka's happiness, even at the expense of her own... Hence why, at the very end, Homura says 'Maybe someday even you will be my enemy. But that's okay.' Hope all this helped yall make sense of things a bit more. If you ever watch this again, it's really fun the second time around! And if you didn't already know, we're actually (finally) slated for a new Madoka movie sometime this year (after like 10+ years ;lksjdflk) so you can look forward to more of this story!
