Happy Mami makes my day. This was actually a surprisingly sweet look at her character.

Edit: I just realized the implications of that last scene. Remember the last time Mami was so fired up? At least she isn't alone this time.

Leave it to Maitake2 to make Mami a likable character. Maitake, why are you so brilliant?

^^ me too. She is always portrayed​ as so childish and fun when she is. It's adorable

Awww, that's sweet of Maitake to give Mami some love too. Everyone always picks on her so it's nice to see something nice happen to her sometimes.

Especially if it doesn't involve her dabbling in child molestation.

Let's not get aHead of ourselves. She's only 5 years older than Nagisa, and they're both underaged. it's fine.

Would have liked to see Nagisa turn up in here, but this is fine too.

Easily the worst Maitake2 doujin I've read. The only thing worse than Mami is Kyuubey.

All this time I thought I was the only person that didnt really like Mami. Maitake2 has helped me find my people. Thanks Mami worship doujin.

Wait people hate Mami? You guys are too cruel. She's already the #1 gag character, at least say she's just ok.

Mami was sort of intentionally unlikeable just because of her role in the main story. She represents the happy delusion of the classical magical girl of love and justice, defeating evil and looking good doing it. The antithesis of Homura who represents the cold, heartless reality of what is actually happening. Thus Mami will always be on Kyuubey's side and Homura will always be in conflict with her. Basically, Mami is Kyuubey's stooge and the unintentional enemy of the main characters.

She's the single most close-minded character in the entire series and it led her to murder one of her friends and attempt to murder another because she couldn't handle the truth she'd already previously been told. And she's just as close-minded in Rebellion where she flat out refuses to even entertain the idea of what Homura, one of her good friends, is telling her.

Mami's character is as complicated as all the other characters imo. I would argue that her actions at that moment were due to panic, stress, and shock. Even though her actions were drastic, dying would be the only way to be free from the curse of being a witch. I don't see it as if she couldn't handle the truth, she just jumped to a conclusion on shaky circumstances and decided to recklessly act on them. She is just a middle schooler after all.

I feel as though her actions are all believable and within her character, due to her experiences before the events of the main story. It's probably because I've read The Different Story, but I actually feel a bit sorry for her. It's been years though and I'm not sure if I'm remembering everything correctly. I guess it's a good time to reread it to make sure I'm not just being a Mami sympathizer lol.

Homushock

Reading your comments made me realize I didn't like Mami in the anime... The doujins had blinded me!

If Mami-sexual sees this comment section he's probably going to die

Uhhh... Did Homura just say that Mami did "connect" with all of them. I didn't know she was such a player.

Is that a golf club?

That was her very first weapon. I don't think she had it long before she started using pipe bombs, though(the guns came after Sayaka complained, being a melee fighter and all that).

and so our belief spreads.

Omigosh, I totally forgot about that, thanks.

Oh Homura, you giant fucking nerd <3 <3 <3

pg 1, "When I first become" should be "became"

pg 3, "unsuited to being magical girl." sounds better as "unsuited to being a magical girl", missing "a".

Page 6 second panel. Had a good laugh there.
Other than that, I'm glad we got a little doujin for Mami.
