the thing you gotta think about to understand homura is that she spent about a 12 years’ worth of timeloops solely focused on madoka. she was normal before then (mostly) and normal about madoka (mostly). I could even see the argument that she was not in love with madoka yet during loop 0. but the time loop makes her completely wrapped up in madoka. remember that shot of madoka being all tied up by fate or whatever because of the timeloops? its like that for homura too but all of those strings are madoka. if that makes any sense.

so of course she is going to fall in love with madoka, become obsessed with her, get uhh Not Normal about her. she's built her life around her for so long. madoka has been homura's goal for nearly half (about 46%) of her lifetime. theres no way she’s not going to love her and of course cannot bear to lose her (and not just her, her entire existence) because that’s defeating the purpose of what was essentially her life’s work. so of course her actions in rebellion make sense of course she’s going to tear apart the world for madoka.

its not just about love its also about sunk costs (but love itself is about sunk costs too so theyre basically the same thing, right?)
