Fluttershy could probably relate to Madoka's feeling of helplessness.
Also, it was a one-sided crush on Sayaka's part, so it counts.

"They wanted to play 'memes' with the old school. Now there are tears."
@Kyler: But Madoka's being conspired against by an unfair contract, an entirely amoral alien, and the heat death of the universe. Fluttershy's being conspired against by Angel and her own shadow.
It's not entirely a fair comparison, is my point. XD

Can you think inside the chimney?
It may just be me putting more stock in emotion rather than logic in this kind of scenario, but...
I don't see your point.
"They wanted to play 'memes' with the old school. Now there are tears."
Well I think
Lolita and
Fate/stay night are likely to be brought back.
If there is anything that you are alone in thinking, it's "thinking that you're alone in thinking of your theories".
@Kyler: I'm just saying that Madoka's facing more existential hopelessness than 'ponies will laugh at me if I go outside today' hopelessness.
Keep in mind that I love Fluttershy, by the way.

Remind me again what this MOGUMOGU is?
"They wanted to play 'memes' with the old school. Now there are tears."
^^Yeah. You can see a cereal box at the beginning of that sequence that reads
Mami Mogu Mogu, that being an onomatopoeia for chewing.

Coincidentally, I was listening to
this
. Probably my favorite music from the series.
Also, Charlotte was so cute. Too bad she's a witch.

I've always been amazed by how Madoka fans find all those little details.

Plus, she kept reminding him of the thing he hated. Sayaka can't have gotten any points for that.
"They wanted to play 'memes' with the old school. Now there are tears."
So we know that Ponies and Gryphons and Dragons are all sentient in this world; what other animals do you think are?
Gay, Autistic, Nerd, Gamer, Gleek, Brony, Writer, Fan, Master Of The Ever Changing Avatar, Mad Man.
I am in fact awesome.
I'm not saying he had an obligation to fall in love with her; that kind of thinking... well, you can see where that kind of thinking ends up. My point is that he never thanked her for caring to visit him, didn't bother telling her he was out of the hospital, and then spent literally the rest of her life avoiding her.

I think the saddest part about Sayaka is that's how a lot of people would have acted if they were
Wrong Genre Savvy.

You also left out Steven Magnet.

Romantic movies are bad for you, man.

I have never seen Madoka, so I have no idea what you guys are on about...
As for sentent species, who knows? they all seem to exibit interlect far higher than there real live counterparts do (bar perhaps the goats), but many don't talk. That doesn't mean they are less inteligent though, just that they underdeveloped vocal cords.
