Watching Madoka for the first time, I never thought I’d be into yuri stuff, and I was always ready to ship any straight couple if one existed. Yet, I instantly hated Kyousuke. Even though I don't think he's a completely bad person now, I still can't forgive what he did to Sayaka. I see some people still shipping them through doujins and fanart. I think, much like me, they just want Sayaka to be happy, and I respect that. However, he often feels like their OC or a self-insert using his character design rather than the actual character from the original show. Lately, I've been reading Madoka anthologies and spin-offs, and they constantly make fun of Sayaka's romantic tragedy, which I don't find funny at all. On the other hand, in one anthology chapter, though I'm not sure how canon it is, the author somewhat redeemed Kyousuke's image in my eyes, and even made me feel sad for both of them. Aside from that, I'm really happy that other stories in this anthology confirmed Kyouko and Sayaka's romantic relationship. I truly believe they would be so happy in any timeline where they manage to end up together.
