Line 24:
* [[De-Power]]: {{spoiler|In the ending, this happens to Madoka as the laws of reality gets rewritten. Again}}.
* [[Gainax Ending]]: {{spoiler|The barrier trapping Homura's Soul Gem is seemingly shattered, and she's about to be taken away by Madoka, who [[Ascended to A Higher Plane of Existence]] in the series. However, Homura wants to be with Madoka more than anything, and Madoka residing on another plane of existence, as you might imagine, does not make it easy for them to be together. A normal person will let themselves get pulled away, but we're talking about the girl who relived existence several times to save Madoka. Thus, Homura straight up ''pulls Law of Cycles Madoka out of the sky'', ''enslaves the entire Incubator species'', and ''rewrites the laws of existence to ensure she and Madoka will be together''. She says she's neither a Magical Girl or Witch, instead calling herself a "demon". Several questions are left unanswered, the biggest being whether the Law of Cycles will continue or not. The scene after the credits don't help either, depicting Homura falling off a cliff with a beaten up Kyubey.}}
** Things make a bit of sense if you think about it for a bit. {{spoiler|Homura's motivation from the original series is to save Madoka. In the penultimate timeline, she was never able to do it. Even though Madoka isn't a witch, her sacrifice means Madoka cannot be with Homura. Thus, when given a chance to save Madoka again and give every magical girl another chance, Homura took it. This is why Homura pulled Madoka out of the sky and rewrote the laws of reality so they will all be transfer students. A proportion of the happy ending from the series is kept; no new magical girls can be formed as the Incubators are under Homura's control, so over time no new witches can be formed. Homura never did anything to alter Madoka's ability to prevent the transformation of witches with her "own hands" (subtitled version). If a magical girl is transforming into a witch, Madoka can touch them to stop the transformation and let them disappear. The difference is she must do it from the physical world, instead from another plane of existence}}.
* [[Masquerade]]: One is put up to conceal the {{spoiler|true nature of Mitakihara city. This isn't the same Mitakihara city as the series}}.
* [[The Movie]]: This is the last part of a trilogy<ref>It was a trilogy until a sequel to this film was announced</ref>. The first two films were a retelling of the original series, and this one is a continuation of the story.
* [[New Transfer Student]]: In the original series, Homura is one. {{spoiler|In the end of the movie, Madoka is one}}.
* [[Non Sequitur Scene]]: The "cake song" sequence, around twenty minutes into the film. It doesn't serve a bigger role in the plot, and it interrupts the pacing of the Nightmare fight. The scene is not used for humour. However, it is a nice break from the usual depressing ''Madoka Magica'' tone. {{quote|'''Everyone''': Big cake!
Round cake!
Line 42 ⟶ 43:
That big round cake loves Bebe can't you see.
<Beat>
Is the cake Mami?
...}}
* [[Opening Monologue]]: Homura gives one about magical girls and how their end will inevitably be claimed by the Law of Cycles.
* [[Post Modernism]]: Some sequences blur the line between [[Clip Art Animation]] and [[Anime]] animation. Hard. And there's many of them.
