I’ve been seeing some misinformation starting to spread in the irl magical girl tags so I wanted to put this notice out sooner rather than later:

I want to reiterate for the magical hero community, particularly puella magis, that Walpurgisnacht the festival and Walpurgisnacht the Witch are two different things!

Walpurgisnacht (the festival for the Feast of Saint Walpurga) and Hexennacht (Witch’s Night) occur annually on April 30th into May 1st.

That being said, I have no evidence or reason to believe that Walpurgisnacht the Witch from Puella Magi Madoka Magica has historically appeared or will appear on this date.

If you want to direct your energy towards a big bad, consider joining me in my hunt for the Heritage Witch, Agenda 47, this week culminating on the evening of April 30th! The Heritage Witch, much like the Witch Walpurgisnacht, is a formidable foe that requires attention!
