There exist familiars who have the power to grant one wish to a chosen girl. However, that girl must then become a Puella Magi, a girl with magical powers, and fight against witches, evil creatures born from curses that are responsible for murders and suicides.

Another Peulla Magi named Homura Akemi tries to prevent Madoka from making such a deal.
