That was my point. Mami's death fits thematically into the story, which seems clearly to me to have something to say about the bright side of life. "Dark for a Magical Girl show" doesn't mean much to me as I don't typically watch them, but I don't come to Shinbo for sick and depressive stuff; instead, that would be brilliant stylisms/artistic creativity combined with either (occasionally perverted) humour or human drama. Thus far, Puella Magi has been providing the latter just about perfectly while approaching nowhere near the darkness of other serious works out there.
