The Puella Magi Madoka Magica The Movie Part 3: Rebellion.
The event was livestreamed on Ume Aoki appeared wearing a Kyubey mask in order to take part in some player vs player battles with other staff .
After the screening of the first episode and ClariS's performance, the livestreamed part of the event began with a talk segment with the game's main voice actors: Ayana Taketatsu (who plays Alina Gray). The voice actors shared their thoughts on part 1 of the mobile game's story with a particular focus on how their characters have developed over time.
This segment was followed by a Mirrors Tournament, where main character designer Ume Aoki, original witch designer Tatsuya Ishikawa pitted their magical girl teams against each other through the game's PvP "Mirrors" battle system. The voice actors had to predict who would win. (Amusingly, none of the eight voice actors thought at first that Toyama would win. He ended up being the overall victor.)
Next, the event released new Puella Magi Suzune Magica manga spinoff was announced, and two new five-star magical girls were teased for release in 2019.
Three voice actors for several part 2 characters appeared on stage, wearing outfits corresponding with the appearances of their designs. TrySail. They announced that the theme song of part 2 will be called "Utsuroi" (Vicissitudes) and performed the game's opening theme song "Kakawari" (Involvement).
The event concluded with Asakura performing her character song "Yohaku no Honne" (True feelings of blank space), wrapping up an eventful evening for Puella Magi Madoka Magica fans. The staff and voice actors thanked the fans for showing up even though a typhoon was scheduled to hit Tokyo later the same night. Hopefully, everyone managed to get home safely.
