Puella Magi Madoka Magica: Homura's Revenge!, Vol. 1 (Volume 1)

A great story from a different angle. Totally worth the read, if only to see Homura's perspective on the action.

Interesting 'What-If' story, can't wait to get the second volume!

I bought this along with Homura Tamura Vol.1, and I think I enjoyed Homura Tamura more. Granted, that one is more lighthearted and makes you laugh. Homura's Revenge's plot seems almost fanfiction-y, wherein Homura winds back in time once more but this time with Madoka and Kyubey in tow. I suppose you could think of it as one of the many time loops Homura was in before Madoka ascends? Mixed feelings for this first book - I know that the original (and even some spin offs) story was quite dark, but frankly this one made me feel down in a slightly different way that borders disappointment. Yet at the same time, I suppose you can't help but want to root for the main characters when everything goes wrong. Not a bad read I suppose, and decent art.

I loved this such a good story a must for any fan of the series especially silly fans of Homura

Great book! Arrived quickly! Thanks!

She loves it

First off, you'll need to read/watch the original in order to understand this one. This comic explores another alternate timeline, this time with Madoka having knowledge as to what Homura has gone through. A lot of the comic's strengths lie with Homura, as it dives into what she's thinking about, and shows us how her knowledge of alternate timelines is useful yet limited, causing her trouble when she tries to anticipate and prepare for events. There are quite a few moments which help show again, why Homura is so distant from the other girls. Without spoiling too much, there's also a really cool team-up introduced towards the end that fans of the original might be excited to see. At the same time, the comic isn't so good when it comes to seeing the idea out. Once again the girls don't communicate, leading to disaster that's easily avoidable. Obviously this timeline won't work out considering it's not the canon ending, but it would have been nice to see the characters act more competent than this. It also doesn't seem to know what sort of tone it wants- the premise is based upon Homura getting an idea... in a really silly manner. Humor shouldn't be avoided, but the way this comic goes about it, it undermines it's more serious moments. The artwork is in the same style as the original (but a different artist). It's clean, easy to read and expressive without being too cartoony, which is nice, but it's also nothing to be too excited about. Overall, it has some nice ideas and explores Homura's character, but can feel frustrating due to characters not communicating or acting rationally. Fans who want to see more of the original characters, more Homura character development, and more information on her rewind power will find things to like in this.

I bought this used for a bit cheaper and Im very impressed by the condition it was in. Ive bought used books and manga before and could definitely tell that it was used, but this was in great condition almost new. I really appreciate that. As for the story I love it so far. I was shocked when I began reading it that this time Madoka actually remembers everything. Ive only read the first volume so there is nothing much I can say until I read all 3.

At first, just from the cover, i believed it would be a comedic spinoff of the Madoka franchise and it certainly was going that direction in the begining but as the story progresses we realise it slowly goes into the same mood as the orignal story, only with key plots points changing drastically.

An exciting chapter of magical madoka but seen from the vision of Homura and Madoka

So here's a question. What would happen if the plot of Puella Magi Madoka Magica was turned on its head with characters having knowledge of all the events to come? Well this spin-off series asks that question and runs with it. I can't really talk too much into the plot here because not only would it spoil the entire franchise to anyone yet to see the original smash hit but it would spoil the twists, of which there are still many, of this series. All I can say on this one is that it is continuing the series almost trademark dark themes.

un muy buen spin off de PMMM, me encanta esta historia y la calidad de impresión de este tipo de manga.

If you are a fan, then you'll want this to improve your PMMM collection. Don't expect a better story than the original, but it will certainly quench your thirst for PMMM related stories.
