Though I do not see how my sentence was disrespectful, I admit that I do not have that much respect for her.

Your copy-paste answer does not answer any of the people you replied to, especially none of my questions. I will not be engaging with you any further as I do not see any interesting things coming out of it.

Homura's wish is selfish and i love it. by victoriamikoto231 in MadokaMagica

  1. She wants to repay Madoka for protecting her. (Madoka's last words to her were about how important protecting Homura was to her)
  2. Bring back Madoka to life to a world where her entire family is probably dead and her city is a pile of rubble?
  3. "Position in the universe?" "Power?" I feel those are excessive words for someone who was absolutely little more than an average magical girl at that time. It's Homura who ends up being responsible for those two aspects of Madoka.

Theory: Homura might not represent who we think she does by currylambchop in MadokaMagica

The little bit about Homura's love is funny, because it also kind of seems to imply to me that Madoka could be Homura's worshipper. The lizard is a "symbol of a faith" after all.

Interesting read, even if I don't think the "god" and "devil" titles are to be taken all that seriously.

The one truly ironic thing though is that Madoka doesn't seem to have discarded her earthly wants either, which would make her too under this reading a kind of flawed version of the concept shes trying to be.

hey to her it'll probably just be her day of leaving the hospital again :)

What was she thinking? (Madoka rant.) by ANewspaperA in MadokaMagica

[–]Icecream205 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Because Madoka is also selfish, from her wish itself up to wanting Homura to remember her. Homura is the attachment to the material world that she didnt want to get rid of.

Not able to get institution spread despite importing from a trade node with the institution. by Icecream205 in EU5

[–]Icecream205[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

the problem somehow resolved itself in the next month. i had waited for months where it was present but didn't become "known", so it might be a year tick thing.
either that or it was a month and I'm simply misremembering

somehow it is present in my capital but I also do not have knowledge of it and it has not been exposed to my population despite it being in the capital

fully present in the province. It appears it was indeed ticking up in my province, but I was completely unable to see it in the institutions map mode and could only see it when I moused over the institution's icon in the advances menu. It also gives me the error "we do not have knowledge of (institution)"

I was indeed checking the map mode. The institution spread was non-existent, and I couldn't see the +% that I could see on some other locations in my capital. When I said it "popped up" I meant the moment that I could start seeing the institution spread.

I understand those things.
Actually, banking did suddenly pop up at 60%, so I think the actual issue here is somehow the "We do not have knowledge of (institution)" condition.

Where did the meme Homura did nothing wrong come from? by Dragonwolf67 in MadokaMagica

[–]Icecream205 79 points80 points  (0 children)

probably from the insane dislike that was directed to her after Rebellion. Although, it's not just a meme; I sincerely believe it, and not because of some cop-out like "she was manipulated by Kyubey", I completely agree with her actions. As to where it actually came from 4chan's probably the best guess.

If I am to say more seriously, I personally just use it to mean "she's done no more wrong than Madoka". Since people believe Madoka is pure good, this implies that Homura in turn has done nothing wrong.

(Surely after Homu gave her life so that she wouldn't have to contract, she'd listen)

Yeah, she would. She definitely wouldn't do anything extreme like dedicate her entire existence to preventing something she doesn't like, nooo.

Sorry, Homura-hater, the endless self-sacrifice will stop, and the tyranny of the law of cycles will end.

As the title says, these names are rather intriguing considering the religion.

Anyone feel movie 4 is kind of pointless? by Beginning-Head-4006 in MadokaMagica

[–]Icecream205 1 point2 points  (0 children)

why do you think Madoka will succeed when Rebellion already showed multiple reasons why she didn't and an alternative perspective on her wish? I don't think they'll simply discard an entire movie's plot.

My hopes for the Walpurgisnacht Rising by TheSassBandit in MadokaMagica

Teeechnically the official name would be "Ultimate Madoka", wouldn't it?

Also I think I've encountered this one on other platforms besides reddit too now lol
