| “ | I'll do it over, no matter how many times it takes. I'll re-live it over and over again. I will find a way out. The one path that will save you from this destiny of despair.

| “ | The Nutcracker Witch. Its nature is self-sufficiency. Its gallant form, which once split many nuts, is now useless. Without any other purpose, this witch's last wish is her own execution. However, a mere decapitation will not clear away the witch's sins. This foolish witch will forever remain in this realm, repeating the procession to her execution. | „ |
| “ | The Nutcracker Witch. Her nature is self-sufficiency. Her teeth are showing, her skull is melted, and her eyeballs have fallen out. A promise is the only thing that pitifully planted in that head which can no longer crack any nuts, but within the husk of the awakened witch is the distinct form of a magical girl. Her servants shamefully refer to that thing as a good-for-nothing. | „ |
| “ | The Doppel of Karma. It's form is the mortal world. The master of this emotion visits many worlds in search of an exit, spinning giant threads of fate. Fourteen incomplete bodies born from emotion trail behind the master's body, which has almost completely transformed into glass. In order to achieve their mission, these 14 bodies work methodically and tirelessly to remove obstacles. Regardless of their master's will, they weave the threads of fate, which become tangled in ever more complex patterns, driving her yet further into a maze, the exit of which can hardly be found. These bodies of emotion have no names. | „ |

At most Island level with her Forcefield Creation (Was able to tank only one attack from Walpurgisnacht before being broken) | Unknown | Likely City level, Unknown with barrier (Was able to resist Madoka Kaname's arrows) | Multiverse level+ (Note that conventional means i.e. the destruction of her body, will not be able to kill her)

Weaknesses: Homura is protective of Madoka to a fault and tends to be insane, however, this should not come up in a battle as Madoka would not be present. Destroying her Soul Gem would kill her immediately. | Same as before. Is now suffering from a psychological breakdown given she can't tell if Madoka Kaname was real or if all the events of the anime were, in fact, false memories she gave herself. She eventually overcomes this, however | None of the previous weaknesses. She was initially unaware that she was a witch | None Notable
- Has survived encounters with Walpurgisnacht for a hundred of timelines. (Intelligence Feat)
- Has gone up against significantly stronger enemies, one of which had prep against Homura's main abilities. (Intelligence Feat)
- Caught a bullet mid-air with a ribbon directly after being shot in the head. (Precision Feat)
- Was capable of enduring the collision of a skyscraper falling on top of her.
- Capable of creating massive explosions, one of which reaching 42 kilotons of energy and has several Cruise Missiles in her arsenal.
- Has mimicked and incorporated techniques from other magical girls, such as Kyoko Sakura's Scorpion Spear, into her own arsenal, as shown in Homura's Revenge. (Intelligence feat)
Notable Attacks/Techniques:
- Time Manipulation: Perhaps Homura Akemi's most iconic ability, Homura poses control over time in the form of Time Stop (With no set limit, even capable of stopping time long enough to sneak in and steal military and Yakuza equipment.), Time Travel (Which contrary to popular beliefs, does not need to be specifically one month before Madoka's death.), Time Slow & Acceleration in the form of Clock-Down and Clock-Up (Capable of making even relatively quick witches appear very slow.)
- Time Stop Special: Stops time and then proceeds to fire off most, if not all of weaponry, including several explosive weaponry.
- Crossfire Missiles: An experienced Homura's Magia attack, by enhancing several cruise missiles she had stolen from a nearby U.S. base, Homura can inflict the 'Stun' status effect on them after exploding.
- Time Paradox Immunity: Through contact with her shield (The source of her Time Manipulation and BFR abilities), Homura is unaffected by the effects of resetting the multiverse even by characters such as Ultimate Madoka.
- Blunts and more blunts: Whacks the enemy with her Golf Club.
- Pressure Point Strike: Used originally on Sayaka to knock her out with one hit (Who has notably more durability than Homura has striking strength).
- Forcefield Creation: Encases Homura in a magical barrier, first seen in episode 1. While this form of her forcefields are quite durable, they likely cap out near Walpurgisnacht's level. She has also been shown as being capable of creating other forms of forcefields, such as a shocking ring, in Oriko Magica.
- BFR: Originally, her BFR sent anything to a pocket world inside her Shield. However, as of the Wraith Arc the BFR instead sends enemies into a timeline in the previous multiverse (The world of the witches, as it became non-existent because Ultimate Madoka rewrote it), thus requiring something akin to Cross-Multiversal+ level range in order to escape it.
- Weapon Creation: Most Puella Magi are capable of creating weapons out of thin air using their magic. While most select specific weapons, some with a heightened mastery of their abilities can create different weapons with their own minor capabilities.
- Telekinesis: On top of creating weapons, they can also control their weapons in the air and with no limit to how much at a time. The same applies to many weapons that they have enhanced.
- Puella Magi Physiology: Because their bodies no longer harbor a soul, they effectively act like flesh puppets that have no real impact on the 'essence' of a magical girl. According to several interviews and in-series showings, a magical girl can have all their blood drained from their body and still fight with little impairment, or have their head torn off or shot through and still walk just fine.
- Fusionism: When two opposing magical abilities (Like Fire Manipulation and Ice Manipulation) or opposing main abilities (Like a magical girl who wished for Creation and another who wished for Existence Erasure) combine their attacks, the result is an attack the multiplies in power. In addition, if two soul gems were to harbor the same body, the result can be them swapping control or fusing into one magical girl, albeit temporarily.
- Extrasensory Perception: Magical Girls were shown to be capable of detecting despair and magic from within their cities as well as being able to telepathically communicate with one another. As of Magia Record, it is shown that their abilities extend well into other cities and is not limited to emotions or magic.
- Homura's Magicial Squall: An alternate version of Madoka Kaname's Magicial Squall. Its secondary effects are unknown.
- Combination Squall: An attack used alongside Madoka in Rebellion, it is a more powerful form of Madoka's Magical Squall.
- Angel Wings: Seen in the last episode, they also grant flight, however, their secondary ability is unknown.
- Homura's Power: Beings that become possessed become mutated versions of their classification/species, with numerable different abilities added to their original form. Homura's Power is also not bounded by the host's life, and thus can reform itself after the host body dies. If Homura's Power were to reunite with Homura herself, they temporarily access an astral world that is likely inside of Homura's mind, where she can make another wish and gain another power (Such as her Memory Manipulation or Smite wishes).
- Unknown Familiars: Rebellion Homulily has access to several familiars (If they are familiars) that are representations of her own emotions. According to the Rebellion Production Notes, these were not made by Homulily, and may not even be composed of curses. These familiars are comparable to even strong magical girls. These familiars somehow reformed themselves in Akuma Homura's new world.
- Unknown Ability: Alterations to reality will come off as 'natural' to those who are affected. While the specifics of why this is the case is unknown, it should be noted that these alterations can be as wild as people being faceless or a loop back to one place.
- She is also capable of ignoring the Acausality of characters such as Ultimate Madoka.
- The exact details of Akuma Homura's powers are unknown, but it is possible that she is something akin to Ultimate Madoka.
Note: Unlike normal magical girls, Homura uses amplified military weaponry instead of her own natural magic as a weapon, thus she is capable of At least City level destruction despite having an Attack Stat of 0 (Small Town level).
Note #2: As a Crystalized Magical Girl, Homura has appeared in the last episode of the main series, Wraith Arc, and Magia Record. However, the latter used her regular magical girl equipment and abilities, with the added exception of memoria and doppel transformations.
