I'll give you this is true in some cases (and I love this type of character development) but I think what I say about misleading is true in some cases too. You used the example of Madoka, well then I will use the example of Homura.
In Steins Gate I was thinking of a lot of the side characters who didn't necessarily "change" but who became more than stereotypes by the end of the series based on what we learned about them.
Although I think we can agree there is more than one way to build a character.
