The exploration of the dark side of power is a common theme. In 'dark Madoka fanfiction', the power that the magical girls possess is not just a means to fight witches but can also lead to their downfall. It shows how the allure of power can corrupt, similar to how in the original the wish - making aspect had hidden costs. Another theme is the isolation of the characters. As the world becomes darker, the characters often find themselves more alone, cut off from the support systems they had in the original story, which further emphasizes the despair in these fanfictions.
Another theme is time - related. Since Homura has the ability to manipulate time in the show, many fanfictions play with this concept in relation to her relationship with Madoka. For example, stories might involve Homura going back in time to save Madoka in different ways or dealing with the consequences of her time - traveling on their relationship.
One common theme is the exploration of male - female relationships in a different light. Since the original has mainly female characters, male fanfiction often reimagines how a male character would fit into the story and interact with the girls.
