But, yeah, after episode 3, I still have no idea why Homura continues to refuse to explain things. |

The first three loops shown in this episode happened when Madoka had already become a MG before Walpurgis. In the first one, she dies, and in the second and third ones, she uses up too much power and becomes a witch. So she's not really getting stronger over the course of those three loops. It's more likely that the power difference comes because Madoka is making a different wish in the fourth timeline. edit: for reference, Spoiler for keeping all the timelines straight:

Instead of thinking so deeply like everyone else, here is a simple solution: Grab more grief seed! Madoka turned witch because they run out of grief seed. So Madoka is fine if Homura had more grief seed in reserve? Instead of going to school and befriend and whatever, Homura should go around Japan and collect grief seed. Appear before Madoka when she defeat W-night and use grief seed to cleanse her.

The only way to actuall save Madoka is preventing her from contracting.

Going off your logic, then why can't Madoka have a connection with her other selves from previous timelines? |

If the MG/Witch system wasn't made by Kyubey's kind then how did that happen? I mean how can they discover that energy without MGs, unless MGs existed before and that they somehow find a way to make a girl into a MG in their own way.
Another solution for Homura to stop jumping into another timelime is to not save Madoka. I mean from the original timelime, Homura wasn't even a MG and that both Mami and Madoka died saving the world. If Homura tries to save Madoka, she's just prolonging both her and Madoka's suffering. Kyubey won't also get Witch Madoka's energy. Why can't she just go back in time and stop herself from making a contract with Kyubey. I know it's bad but at least she won't see Madoka suffer anymore.

Fantastic. Simply fantastic. After rewatching it, I can only say that while nothing was really totally shocking and new, this storyline has just mended alot of potential plot holes and came up with a perfectly credible explanation for Homura's development.
Unless they completely screw up the last 2 eps, we have another anime en route to the famous "epic" level. But seeing the care Urobuchi put into the script, I'm confident he'll find a proper closure. Oh, and before I forget: Zetsubomura >> Moemura |

This episode was so, so good. Even though nothing in this episode surprised me (save for one particular event), witnessing what happened in these timeline was wonderful!
"Hanekawa" Homura was so freaking moe, holy christ! I still prefer "Senjougahara" Homura though. I told you Homura was just Homura. I believed in the Madoka = Homura theory ever since episode 1, however, after Homura's burning love for Madoka was made clear, I knew she couldn't possibly be Madoka. There's no way anyone can love oneself that much. The role reversal was entertaining. Madoka as the cool, strong, and confident magical girl (I couldn't believe my eyes ) and Homura as the helpless, insecure girl. It was cool to see Mami again. I was astonished by her freakout. We were already aware she wasn't as tough as she tried to make herself appear, but wow, I never thought she'd lose it like this. This scene was breathtaking. Hmm, I don't see much hope for the current timeline. It's not so different from the last one (Homura is the only MG currently alive in this city, and Madoka still hasn't made a contract). It appears to me that the only way to stop this vicious cycle is to kill that bastard Kyubey (easier said that done, I know). As long as he exists, he'll find a way to lure Madoka into contracting. Wait, I know! They need to summon the famous cat from the OP! He's Kyubey's nenemesis!

Come to think of it, we never found out what Madoka's wish was. Does anyone think this will be a relevant plot point? "The only remaining way" makes me think that a well-thought wish by Madoka could solve things, perhaps...
