and sans Air, both are Blue.
And while the list is not too correct...
It is not bad to get a first impression.

Disclaimer: The following are personal opinions/understandings and may be disputed and/or outright incorrect according to others.
What exactly they're talking about with "nature" gets pretty fuzzy with green. The kind of obscenely massive critters that it throws out from time to time-your Krosan Cloudscrapers, Skarrg Goliaths, and Worldspine Wurms- aren't "natural" by any conventional meaning of the term. My understanding is that it's less about what actions are being taken and more whether those actions are a necessary and immediate response to circumstance, and whether they make use of available resources to cultivate more. "Adapt and overcome" might as well be green's motto.
As far as green is concerned "nature" is the emergent property of everything in existence striving at all times to survive and multiply to the best of their ability. Sometimes that means someone's going to break an ecosystem over their knee, but that's fine- green isn't static, and it expects everything whose world was just shattered to figure out how to survive in its new environment, or not.

Well I did say it's a simplification.
The reasons for them hitting her are all those other girls being better than her.
Now where have I heard a similar wish before......

Not a monkey's paw. The girl that killed Jade's dad did actually want that outcome.The reasons for them hitting her are all those other girls being better than her.

This would be counted as simply "make a wish." A second round of voting would start for what wish would be made.

Who said anything about a monkeys paw? We actually hate those girls. If they didn't win against us then our parents wouldn't have to punish us.

So I read through and didn't see anything about the Kyubey adding on the Soul Gem thing. I did see this though.
So the energy comes from the soul which is definitely a Black thing.
Yes, and there are black paladins too.
We were speaking typical here though, not the outliers.

The witchness is the unnaturalness we want to purify it of. How are MGs parasitical when you take away their cleansing?

Which is silly.
Blue breaks the system over its knees. It just does it preemptively so that it doesn't get sneak-attacked.
So why does green hate blue?
Witches eat people. Magical girls eat witches. Magical girls eat people. Parasitic. If they didn't have to cleanse then they'd be from RWBY.

That's the whole point, he's trying to go for a wish that'll give us the tools we need to break the system with green mana, so that we can strip out QB's additions and end up with something like a RWBY semblance.

First you have to understand that the "system" that Green breaks doesn't mean "this is the way things should be" but "this is the way things are." Survival of the fittest means that there really isn't a set "system." But everything kind of merges together into a kind of "super-system." What Green does is break some of the "subsystems" leaving the larger "super-system" intact. Blue, on the other hand destroys that "super-system." That's why Green hates them.

Oh. If that's what you're talking about:
Anime Transcripts@アニメで英語 - Puella Magi Madoka Magica>06. This just can't be right
Look at the context. He's talking about the emotions the souls produce. The souls remain intact, which is the very reason grief seeds can exist.

And how much is QB's meddling and how much is supposed to be there? Are the Soul Gems something bad or something that makes the whole system stable? Would making that system unstable cause it to collapse?

Kyuubey invented Soul Gems. He also invented witches. He didn't invent magic. Not even PMMM magic.

I still don't see where he says that having a Soul Gem causes you to gain Grief. Or that Soul Gems aren't an important part of the system. If Grief is formed in the soul and you have to touch it with a Grief Seed to cleanse it then isn't making a Soul Gem a good thing? Without it you can't cleanse which means you will Witch out in short order.

They disagree on a lot of critical points about what's important. Green is (usually) about concrete, immediate, and fundamental things and blue is (usually) about theoretical, abstract, intellectual things. Given a similar set of resources and options they'll largely choose different ones.
The word "hate" feels stronger than is justified to me; the color divisions aren't absolute, which is why you can have UG as a pairing at all. They're in opposition but that doesn't mean that they can't work together or agree on anything at all. You won't get blue saying that survival is bad or green saying that optimization is bad, even though those are critically tied to the other color; they're useful enough concepts that both are willing and inclined to use them to achieve success. But they're means to an end- and which is the means and which is the end is the point on which the colors disagree.

Homura says that in the show, I think shortly after the lichbomb.
Blue destroying a perceived system is also "the way things are". Survival of the Fittest isn't defeated by technology, just nudged towards a different outcome, it begins and ends with "what happens happens". Anyone seeking to stop a thing that is in fact happening for the benefit of something that could in theory be happening is placing "the way things should be" over "the way things are" and Survival of the Fittest continues on regardless.
