This blog was made as part of my new Patreon. I'll be setting up a new vote for my next character blog there as well. The candidates this time will be Aile (Megaman ZX), Blaze the Cat, Megamind and Scott Pilgrim.
Background
An average girl from the city of Mitakihara. Madoka spent her days attending school, hanging out with friends, etc. Until one day she and her best friend Sayaka wandered into the domain of a witch, a supernatural creature that threatens mankind. While death seemed imminent, Madoka and Sayaka were saved by a “magical girl” named Mami. Mami then told them that Magical girls are warriors that are bound to protect mankind from witches after contracting with an alien being known as Kyubey. Additionally Magical girls have one wish granted in exchange for their contracts.
Madoka Manga ch 1 Madoka and Sayaka end up in a witch’s domain. They get saved by Mami https://mangadex.org/chapter/01468d2d-1687-4678-a14e-64aa834df89c/36
Madoka Ep 1 22:40 Madoka meets Mami
Madoka Ep 2 4;00 Kybuey says he can grant wishes and make magical girls
Madoka and Sayaka subsequently shadowed Mami on several of her missions as a magical girl, with the intention of potentially contracting with Kryubey themselves. Unfortunately Mami was very infamously killed by a witch during one of her missions. This caused Madoka to reevaluate her desire to become a magical girl and led to the series as a whole taking on a much more dramatic storyline .
Madoka manga ch 3 Mami is killed by the witch Charlotte https://mangadex.org/chapter/3ad355e7-bad4-4968-b1d4-49bc99572ca7/29
Madoka ep 3 19:50 Mami dies
Further into the series it is also revealed that Kyubey is a manipulator. He manipulates girls into contracting with him, with the intention of their wishes typically backfiring. In reality Magical girls turn into witches when they undergo despair, and the emotional energy they create when doing so can be collected by Kyubey’s race, the incubators. The incubators use that energy to help stave off the entropy of the universe.
Madoka manga ch 8 Homura reveals Kyubey to be an incubator https://mangadex.org/chapter/f45ca40c-5d92-42a2-9f7b-7c74f5746c76/30
Madoka manga ch 9 Kyubey is revealed to be a manipulator. His goal is to harvest emotional energy from magical girls to prevent the entropy of the universe https://mangadex.org/chapter/7ea1c85f-0074-4393-b5b0-da75c8ed75c6/15 https://mangadex.org/chapter/7ea1c85f-0074-4393-b5b0-da75c8ed75c6/16 https://mangadex.org/chapter/7ea1c85f-0074-4393-b5b0-da75c8ed75c6/17 https://mangadex.org/chapter/7ea1c85f-0074-4393-b5b0-da75c8ed75c6/18
Madoka ep 9 7:00 Kyubey explains entropy and that magical girls were created to fight that
Madoka ep 9 7:50 Kyubey says that human souls created enough emotional energy to fight entropy. He harvests it with the magical girl system
This ties into the plot of another major character in the series, Homura. Homura originates from an alternate timeline where Madoka had contracted with Kyubey and become a magical girl.
Madoka manga ch 10 In the original timeline Madoka contracted before meeting Homura. https://mangadex.org/chapter/d679f16c-225e-4a93-978d-d02c3fd95fb3/8
Madoka ep 10 0:10 The original timeline where Homura met Madoka’s
That original version of Madoka died fighting the “ultimate witch” walpurgisnacht. Homura then contracted with Kyubey herself to become a magical girl and gained time travel powers.
Madoka manga ch 10 Mami and Madoka died fighting Walpurgis https://mangadex.org/chapter/d679f16c-225e-4a93-978d-d02c3fd95fb3/13
Madoka manga ch 10 Homura wished to redo her first meeting with Madoka. This causes her to gain the ability to travel back in time https://mangadex.org/chapter/d679f16c-225e-4a93-978d-d02c3fd95fb3/16
As a result Homura traveled back in time over and over to prevent Madoka from getting hurt or ever contracting with Kyu. Unfortunately the eventual arrival of Walpurgis either tended to force Madoka into contracting regardless or was impossible for Homura to defeat on her own. The timeline depicted in the original series is the latest attempt we see to avert fate.
Madoka manga ch 10 Homura initially tried to avert fate by going back in time to alter history. She’s failed multiple times. https://mangadex.org/chapter/d679f16c-225e-4a93-978d-d02c3fd95fb3/20 https://mangadex.org/chapter/d679f16c-225e-4a93-978d-d02c3fd95fb3/23
Madoka ep 10 7:40 Homura makes a wish to be able to meet Madoka all over again
Madoka ep 11 12:50 Homura explains how she keeps trying to save Madoka over and over
At the end of the original series after most of the cast has been killed by witches or in various disasters, Madoka goes against Homura’s desires and contracts with Kyubey. She wishes to destroy all witches before they had even existed by her own hand. This wish transforms Madoka into a higher dimensional being that essentially rewrites the laws of the multiverse to protect magical girls from their fate of becoming Witches.
Madoka manga ch 11 Madoka wishes to erase all witches before they were ever born in all timelines, past, present and future with her own power. Kyubey say this wish would violate laws of causality https://mangadex.org/chapter/69475b70-9334-4a85-b55f-6c25ccc54348/3 https://mangadex.org/chapter/69475b70-9334-4a85-b55f-6c25ccc54348/4

Madoka ep 12 1:35 Madoka wishes to erase all witches before they were ever born. Kyubey says it could unravel time itself and violates the laws of karmic destiny
Rebellion manga ch 4-6 Madoka created a world where all magical girls are saved by her before they turn into witches https://mangatoto.com/chapter/727050/62
In the movie Rebellion Madoka’s god-like role is disrupted by Homura, who was uncontent with Madoka sacrificing her life as a normal human. After foiling a plot of the Incubators to enslave Madoka’s godly form, Homura tears Madoka’s human portion out of her god form. Homura then becomes a god herself and rewrites reality so the events of the prior series hadn't happened.
Rebellion manga ch 7-9 Homura tears Madoka human half from her god like self https://mangatoto.com/chapter/727053/82

Soul Gem
The soul gem is a crystalline structure that holds the soul of a magical girl. This separation of soul and physical form, allows a magical girl’s body to be more susceptible to damage. Destroying a magical girl's soul gem will instantly kill them. A magical girl must also stay within 100 meters of the soul gem in order to maintain control their bodies.
Madoka manga ch 7 Soul gems are literally a persons soul https://mangadex.org/chapter/84f2939f-f868-465f-83f3-cef8aed9e430/2

Cleansing and Contamination
Soul gems are also the retainer for a magical girl's magical power. Should they overexert themselves these soul gems will become tainted. Magical girls can purify their soul gems by using the grief seeds, which are dropped by defeated witches.
Madoka manga ch 6 Soul gems get tainted as magic is used, and must be purified regularly using grief seeds https://mangadex.org/chapter/f6fd8179-ff80-4217-921b-3af883c64185/7
Madoka manga ch 2 Witches produce grief seeds. Magical girls replenish the magic power in their soul gems by absorbing grief seeds https://mangadex.org/chapter/6107bdc2-687d-47ce-8c30-9529c20c3b1e/30
Birthing a witch
If a soul gem's contamination reaches the breaking point it shatters, and causes the magical girl in question to transform a witch. Extreme negative emotions can also increase the speed of this taint and can result in instant shattering if they fall to complete despair. The former soul gem of a given magical girl will also transform into a grief seed.
Madoka manga ch 9 Sayaka’s soul gem turned into a grief seed and birthed a new witch https://mangadex.org/chapter/7ea1c85f-0074-4393-b5b0-da75c8ed75c6/11 https://mangadex.org/chapter/7ea1c85f-0074-4393-b5b0-da75c8ed75c6/12

Abilities
Magical girl Abilities
Magical girls by default have superhuman strength, durability and speed. They also have the ability to manifest magical weapons or utilize magical energy through various attacks. The overall “strength” of a magical girl is determined by their projected impact on “karmic destiny” and “fate”. For example Jean de arc was the most powerful magical girl of her time due to being integral to the fate of an entire nation. In the plot of Madoka Magica it's established that because Homura created hundreds of timeline centered around Madoka, Madoka’s karmic destiny was artificially strengthened.

Rebellion 20:42 Madoka transformation sequence
Madoka manga ch 11 A Magical girl's power is dependent on how heavily a person is burdened by fate. Important people are naturally more powerful, and Homura amplified Madoka’s power by creating so many timelines centered around her https://mangadex.org/chapter/9a2d93c4-ce98-4e8a-b4b3-b1c124c8b7d1/2 https://mangadex.org/chapter/9a2d93c4-ce98-4e8a-b4b3-b1c124c8b7d1/3 https://mangadex.org/chapter/9a2d93c4-ce98-4e8a-b4b3-b1c124c8b7d1/4
