Homura Akemi

"I promise. I'll save you. I swear I'll save you. I'll do whatever it takes to keep you safe. I'll come back again and again and again. I'll save you I swear!!!" "-Homura Akemi" Homura Akemi (暁美 ほむら Akemi Homura) is one of the main characters in the Puella Magi Madoka Magica series.

Why She Rocks

 * 1) She is known to be one of the most tragic characters in the anime.
 * 2) Homura, despite being portrayed as unfriendly, is actually quite the opposite. She first met Madoka Kaname when she got trapped in a barrier, in a previous timeline.
 * 3) She became a magical girl in order to protect Madoka.
 * 4) Back then, Homura is portrayed as a meek, shy and polite girl, and is known around the school for her lack of confidence. She was also known for her physical incapability of performing in P.E. class; she would get dizzy upon doing even the simplest of warm-up exercises. This had the unfortunate result of her being a target of bullying.
 * 5) She is very skilled in combat, using guns, an RPG, and many various weapons.
 * 6) She has time powers.
 * 7) Her resolution is to continue fighting as a magical girl, no matter what sin she must commit to do so, only to protect Madoka.
 * 8) * Not only is she able to stop time, but she is also a time traveler.
 * 9) Her fight with Mami Tomoe is intense!
 * 10) She will do anything to keep Madoka safe and happy, even if it means risking her own life.
 * 11) Her demon design is awesome.

Bad Qualities

 * 1) The way she took Madoka's powers and becoming a demon at the end of Rebellion divided her fanbase in two. One side thought she did this just for Madoka, while the other side thought she only did this for her own selfish reasons.
 * 2) Out of all the magical girls in the anime, her magical girl design can be the least interesting.
