Madoka Kaname is the main protagonist of the 2011 Japanese anime television series Puella Magi Madoka Magica. Madoka is a kind and gentle girl who initially lives a normal and happy life, but is suddenly faced with the decision of becoming a magical girl. She aspires to become a magical girl after witnessing her senior Mami Tomoe fighting against surreal monsters known as witches in order to protect people. In Puella Magi Madoka Magica the Movie: Rebellion, Madoka appears as a magical girl and joins her friends in fighting new monsters known as nightmares. She appears in most Puella Magi Madoka Magica related-media, including manga, novels and video games. Madoka Kaname is voiced by Aoi Yūki in Japanese, and Christine Marie Cabanos in English. In developing the character, writer Gen Urobuchi imagined the series' protagonist would be a girl with a "cheerful and idealistic" personality, in contrast to his usual writing style. Madoka was designed by Ume Aoki, who used the character Yuno from her manga Hidamari Sketch as a base. Although her theme color was intended to be white, it later was changed to pink.
