Kyoko Sakura quotes from Puella Magi Madoka Magica

Kyoko Sakura

[Thinking] Hey, God. If you're there, my life sucked. So for once, please, let me have a happy dream.

Kyoko Sakura

We can go all out up here if we want! Come on, give me your best shot!

Madoka Kaname

Sayaka! No, don't!

Sayaka Miki

What are you doing? You shouldn't be here! This has nothing to do with you, so stay back!

Madoka

Come on, think about what you're doing! This just can't be right!

Kyoko

[Points her spear at Sayaka.] Ha! The annoying bitch has an annoying friend! Go figure!

Homura Akemi

[Appearing suddenly behind Kyoko.] Well I wonder what kind of friends you'd have then. [Kyoko is surprised and looks behind to see Homura there.] What are you doing? I thought we agreed you'd leave Sayaka Miki alone?

Kyoko

Like your wimpy idea is gonna teach her any manners! Besides, it's not like she's backing down!

Homura

[Steps forward] I'll take her on then. But you stay out of it then

Kyoko

Hmph. You've got until I finish eating this [Referring to the pocky stick in her mouth.], then it's on!

Homura

That's plenty of time.

Sayaka

[Angry] It won't be that easy! [Prepares to transform]

Madoka

Sayaka, I'm sorry!

Sayaka

Madoka! Why'd you do that?!

Madoka

But if I didn't you would've- [Sayaka's body becomes lifeless and collapses onto Madoka.] Sayaka?

Kyubey

Oh, Madoka. That was really bad.

Madoka

Huh?

Kyubey

What's wrong with you? Are you out of your mind? How could you throw your friend away like that?

Madoka

[Confused] What did you say? What do you mean? [Kyoko rushes over towards the group, takes Sayaka's body, and holds her up by her neck.] No, stop!

Kyoko

[Surprised] What the hell's going on here?! What is this?! She's dead!

Homura Akemi

Why can't you understand you don't have a luxury to fool around? You should only hunt witches.

Sayaka Miki

Shut up. I don't need your advice.

Homura

Your Soul Gem is at its limit. You need to purify it now. Use this. [Homura tosses her a Grief Seed which Sayaka promptly kicks away with her heel shortly after.]

Sayaka

What is this? What're you up to?

Homura

Don't be stupid. You're in no position to question my help. Or do you just hate the idea of it?

Sayaka

Well, I'm gonna be a different kind of magical girl; that's what I decided. I'm not gonna screw anyone over or take anyone for granted. And I won't associate with anyone who does. I don't need anyone's thanks. I'll be the only magical girl around who doesn't use her magic for herself.

Homura

Well, then. You are going to die.

Sayaka

So what? If I'm gonna die, it's gonna be when I can't kill witches anymore. No one's gonna need me anyway, right? I'm okay with that. The world doesn't need a magical girl if she can't even kill a witch.

Homura

Why are you doing this to yourself? Why won't you trust me? Can't you see I just want to help you?

Sayaka

Why don't I trust you? Maybe it's 'cause I can tell what you really are. Maybe I know you're lying. You look like someone who's given up on everything. When you talk, you use empty words. In fact, you're doing it now. You say you wanna help me, but I know that's not what you're really thinking. You're not fooling anyone. Uh-uh.

Homura

Do you realize that you're just making Madoka suffer more and more?

Sayaka

Madoka? This has nothing to do with her.

Homura

You're wrong. Everything has to do with her. [Homura transforms into her magical girl outfit.] You're sharp. Yes, you're right about me. I don't give a damn if you live or die; I don't care. I just don't want Madoka to see you like this; as you destroy yourself. If you don't let me help you now, you're going to die either way. You see, if you make her suffer any more, then I will...kill you. Right here, right now, [Homura prepares for an attack.] Sayaka Miki... [Kyoko shows up from behind and restrains Homura.]

Kyoko Sakura

[To Sayaka] Hurry! Go on! Get outta here! [Sayaka gets up and walks away.] [To Homura] What're you, crazy?! What happened to saving her?! You remember that?!

Homura

Let me go.

Kyoko

Oh, I get it. If I keep holding onto you like this you can't use that funky technique of yours, can ya? [A flash grenade falls from Homura's sleeve. Homura pulls the pin out, blinds Kyoko and escapes.] Dammit!

Kyoko

Finally, I found ya. [Sits down beside her and opens a can of chips.] So how much longer are you gonna do the stubborn thing, huh? [Starts eating the chips]

Sayaka

I'm sorry if I caused you any trouble.

Kyoko

Seriously? Doesn't sound like you at all.

Sayaka

[Sighs] Yeah, you're right. I guess I just don't care anymore. I can't remember...what I thought was so important; what was worth protecting, you know? It's all a blank now. Doesn't make sense anymore.

Kyoko

Hey, come on.

Sayaka

[Reveals her soul gem which is extremely corrupted.] Balance means good and bad have to zero themselves out. Right? That's what you said...or something like it. I think I understand what you mean now. The good this is I did save a few people, but the bad thing is I got angrier and my heart filled up with envy and hate. It got so bad I even hurt my best friend.

Kyoko

Sayaka, your soul gem!

Sayaka

For all the happiness you wish for someone, someone else gets cursed with equal misery. That's how it works for magical girls...and that's how it is for me...[Sayaka begins to cry.] I was stupid...So stupid... [One of her tears hits her soul gem, causing it to shatter which causes a shockwave sending Kyoko flying towards a rail. Afterwards, a witch, Oktavia von Seckendorf, appears from the soul gem.]

Kyoko

SAYAKA!!!

Madoka Kaname

Hey, Kyoko?

Kyoko

Yeah?

Madoka

I feel bad I can't help. Everyone else has always done the fighting for me...Anyway, I sort of feel like a coward.

Kyoko

Why the heck would you ever want to become a magical girl?

Madoka

Why? Uh...

Kyoko

Uh-uh. Don't underestimate this stuff. This ain't a job anybody can do.

Madoka

But...

Kyoko

If you get to eat good food every day and live a happy life with your family, why would you give that up if you're not sure it's what you really want? You thinking about becoming a magical girl on some stupid whim? I'd never allow that to happen. Hell, I'd kick your ass before you could. If you do this, then you're putting your life in danger. The only people who should do this are the ones who've got no other choice. Anybody else who sticks their nose in it is just messing around. And that's dumb.

Madoka

You think so, huh?

Kyoko

But you never know, right? Maybe there will come a time when your back's gonna be up against the wall and you'll have to stand up and fight. If that day ever comes, you can think about it then.

Madoka

Sayaka?! [Kyoko looks away from Madoka in regret.] Sayaka! What happened?! Where's her Soul Gem?! What happened to her?!

Homura Akemi

Her Soul Gem disappeared and transformed into a Grief Seed. A witch hatched and it vanished. [Madoka collapses to the ground in shock.]

Madoka

No...It can't be...

Homura

It is. That's the final secret of the Soul Gems. [Pulls out her Soul Gem and shows it to Madoka.] When our Gems get too tainted and turn completely black, we transform into Grief Seeds. Then we're reborn as witches. See? This is the destiny which no magical girl can escape.

Madoka

It's not true... [Runs over to the two.] It can't be true...Right? [A train passes by creating a short pause. Madoka then collapses again in dismay.] But...how...? She...she only wanted to protect people from witches...She wanted to be a hero...That's why she became a magical girl...Why...?

Homura

Her curse became as powerful as her wish. It was only a matter of time, really. And from now on, for each person she saved, she'll curse another in return.

Kyoko

Why you...What the hell's your problem?! You trying to impress us with your big brain or something?! How can you stand there talking crap like that?! She was Sayaka's...[Looks at Madoka sobbing over Sayaka's body.] She was her best friend!

Homura

[To Madoka] You understand now, don't you? The thing you wanted so much to be...this is it. [To Kyoko] Oh, and the body you brought along? It's your responsibility now. [Forces Kyoko to let go of her collar.] You better be careful getting rid of it, though. Or it'll cause problems later.

Kyoko

And you dare call yourself human?!

Homura

No, of course I don't. Neither should you.

Mami Tomoe

Madoka, do you realize how scary that wish you made was?

Madoka

Sort of.

Mami

You'll be fighting an endless battle; one that stretches from the past to the future for all eternity. You'll never be the same. You won't be able to exist as a physical entity anymore. Dying would be a kinder fate. For the rest of time, you'll live on as an entity whose sole purpose is to destroy witches.

Madoka

I know, and I'm ready. If someone ever tells me it's a mistake to have hope, well then I'll just tell them they're wrong and I'll keep telling them until they believe; no matter how many times it takes.

Kyoko Sakura

Sounds good to me. If you think you can do it, do it. I mean, you found your reason to fight, yeah? And you ain't running away anymore, right? So, there's nothing holding you back! Anyway, it's time to get your ass in gear and go full steam ahead!

Madoka

[Chuckles] Thanks a lot, Kyoko.

Mami

If that's what you really want, it's time you got this back. [Hands Madoka her notebook containing her costume sketches.] Here you go. [Madoka giggles and takes the notebook.] You're not just giving us back our hope, but you're becoming hope itself; the hope of magical girls everywhere.
