Srsly, how has no one put two and two tgt? HUALIAN IN PUELLA MAGI MADOKA MAGICA. Bcz clearly my sick rotten angst-inducing heart has decided that these two were made to suffer. ＼（Ｔ∇Ｔ）／
Fr, the sheer devotion, the desperation, the despair, the love they hold dear like shards of broken crystals, precious and irreplaceable despite the raw agony it causes- how is that not hualian?!
Let’s look at it like this:
Xie Lian as Madoka (obviously.)
Hua Cheng as Homura (Fafa, I’m so sorry, pls forgive me-)
Ling Wen or Pei Xiu as Mami (both are mature, level-headed, tactical…..and have god knows how many repressed issues that require therapy.)
Feng Xin or Shi Qingxuan as Sayaka (well-intentioned BFFs that gradually mature)
Mu Qing or He Xuan as Kyoko (emotional constipation slowly cured through the power of love & friendship)
Bonus: Jun Wu as Kyubey (do I even need to explain this one?)
Credits for this brainworm goes to natcat5 who wrote the Wangxian PMMM AU ‘Lethe’ & ‘Elysium’. Pls pls pls, do go read it as their fic honest to god deserves so many more hits and kudos, it feels too underrated in my opinion. You can find said fic using the link down below.
However, TW: the fic does contain self-harm, body horror, mental instability, implied/referenced child abuse & self-worth issues. Read at your own risk.

If you’re a XueXiao fan, there’s a PMMM AU for them too by simply_kelp . Again, it’s underrated and deserves more hits.
