As Earth-103 will cease to be a sustainable testing area if I continue to investigate, I am temporarily ceasing my attempts to find another candidate."
Wait.... Does this mean Earth is currently in an apocalypse style event with Black Mana witches and Super witches running around?

Are there any 'counters' to Black Mana or ways to deal with what we currently have here?

Also, it turns out Radiant Dawn was right:
"Life sucks, newbie! Welcome to hell."
Earth is Hell.
 
So, how was that good for us from "from a certain point of view"?:V

Because now Kyubey knows he can learn how mana works just by watching it being used enough. Additionally, if he lets Jade die, he'd need to find a new candidate, which he now knows is incredibly difficult.

Wait.... Does this mean Earth is currently in an apocalypse style event with ... Super witches running around?

Nah. Not an apocalypse, Kyubey was careful to keep it within the boundaries of what magical girls could handle. Barely.

Walpurgisnacht only attacks occasionally... but yes, it has been upgraded from a city-killer to a small-country-killer. Basically: Run.

What exactly is the current date in the PMMM verse right now anyway?

April 26th, 2015. Jade has never heard of Madoka or Homura. Most of Mitakihara was destroyed four years ago.

SPOILER ALERT: Neither of them are dead, though...

Yes Kyuubey, create Phyrexia. Nothing will go wrong with your experiments in mana bonding at all.

EDIT: Note that I am actually all for those experiments. It's just that Kyubeys (who, in principle, should be capable of mana bonding themselves at some point) will probably result in some unpleasant things if they ever got magic of their own.

Also, at some point a blue-aligned witch will be made, and, using mental powers, it'll infiltrate / take over parts of kyubey network, resulting in universe-wide oh sh*t moment. I just know it.

SO we made things actively worse with our agreeing to become a magical girl. Whee. :(
This is approximately the least surprising news ever. I mean, we started in Madokaverse, which is as or more prone to "It gets worse" than Worm, and for much the same reasons.

As for Walpurgisnacht now being mana-powered, you didn't think we'd never run into mana-powered opposition, did you? This is a pretty clear case of introducing a major boss in a cutscene when the player gets out of the tutorial, to establish its badass cred in comparison and give you something to strive toward.
 
Well, there's nothing specific or certain, because lore teams have always avoided being specific, but literally every Planeswalker is a talented mage. And then there's Gideon, who only uses magic to go Hulk w/ Whips Smash.
But does that mean that Igniting grants super-leaning skills, that spark ignition favors skilled mages, or that people who have sparks, ignited or unignited, tend to be more skilled? Or is it that unskilled walkers tend to die after arriving at a hostile world?

. . . That wasn't what I'd intended at all. Seriously, everybody from the PMMM side of things already knows Walpurgisnacht is completely and utterly terrifying.


The stage-constructing witch (alias: Walpurgisnacht / real name: unknown); her nature is helplessness. She symbolizes the fool who continuously spins in circles. The witch's mysteries have been handed down through the course of history; her appellation is "Walpurgisnacht." She will continue to rotate aimlessly throughout the world until she completely changes the whole of this age into a drama. When the doll's usual upside-down position reaches the top part of the witch, she completely roils the civilization on the ground in a flash through her gale-like flight.
It was more of a "Hey, I'm a wee bit stalled on Jade's POV, so let's go take a look at what Kyubey is doing..." "...And possibly terrify some of my players in the process."


On a side note, that card description and picture are no longer accurate. It was changed even before Rajani (Subject #1781) was assimilated by Walpurgisnacht.

Her hat is so fancy. I want to be her friend, because nobody evil could have such a nice hat. :V

"Subject #1: Jade Agni. Suffers from depression, mild paranoia, demophobia, iophobia, mild atychiphobia, and the phenomenon known as 'loneliness.' Jade's father, an entertainer, was collateral damage from Hanna Fukui's wish.
So did anyone else think that this was worth noticing?

@Alivaril, what was Hanna Fukui's wish, anyways? If it's not a spoiler?

Edit: And someone comments on it right as I notice that nobody has commented on it yet.

We have no clue for any of them except the last. The first jump, usually made in haste in response to something life-threatening, like Jade tried when she Ignited, is always to somewhere 'safe' in all shown examples.

In theory, the spark is totally random in its distribution, but that's impossible because WotC will always have favored planes (I'm sick of Ravnica now, ugh), so...(unproven observation) a lot of people who keep up with MtG lore assume the spark does make you good at magic, at least to some basic minimum. An unignited spark, we have no idea whether or not it has an effect, because the story will always follow a protagonist-worthy character, who will be special, and any other sparks they meet will be similarly interesting, or else they wouldn't be included in the story.

So Mitakihara was destroyed but neither of them are dead...

So i have 3 theories there:
1: Homura convinced Madoka to leave the city with her before Walpurgisnacht OR She convinced her to run away with her after Mami died.
2: You are twisting the interpretation of 'Not Dead' and they infact witched out together but no one has killed their witches. (Shit they might have even been merged into Walpy O_O)
3: They failed to kill Walpurgisnacht together but survived the battle somehow.

Your german text leads me to think its the 2nd one. Especially with the whole "Corruption of the soulgem causes a metamorphosis' kind of explanation Coobes gave to Jade earlier.

It kinda is and it kinda isn't. I've already given some big hints.

...I'm not trying to be "oooh so mysterious" here, I just enjoy watching people make theories and don't want to ruin that. However, I thought it would be a lil' rude to leave you without a response, so...

Well, I won't yet confirm which one it is, if any, but I will say that they can be saved. Not in a "mercy kill" kind of way, either. A proper rescue.
