So we learn of the Kyuubey look like name "Jyuubey" and this on Purify's the Soul gems him self instead of the mahou shoujo using the grief seeds to purify themselves.

Fake Grief seeds....hmm

Going to have to wait and see how Kazumi reacts to the fake greif seed.

Well, there's definitely some bad blood there. They didn't recognized her name, nor her outfit or power, but her face? Well, that's awkward. Umika seemed to knew her too well, just to know her face...
My guess is, it was someone they abandoned, or left for dead.

Anyone noticed Kyubey's shadow in the first page, next to Juubey?

This chapter was half the usual lenght, but still chaotic as usual. Hmm...

But I am definitely interested.

"Tonight, I sit in the eye of the storm. As fire boils around me, I press forward, winds and lightning lashing my wings. I am no match for what I face. Yet I will not back down, and though fear may place it's stranglehold on my heart, courage will see me through. With tears in my eyes, I hit full throttle. My engines become an inferno, and my weapons light up, awaiting my command.

If I die tonight, I will do so fighting for everything I believe in."

I was afraid this was going to be bad but this improved my idea on this. I like the plot so far and it seems to be heating up. Fake grief seeds can really change this up (hoping the other puella magi get turned into witches one by one, or kazumi actually does go wicth).

The art and paneling was still chaotic as hell, but at least the story is getting truly interesting. I was wondering whether I should drop this after the previous chapter, but now I think it may actually turn into a good manga!

Huh, not half bad. The characters could use some major improvement (but who knows, they could get that after what this chapter hinted), and the plot's picking up a little.

I wonder if this takes place in Madoka's timeline/universe (the one the anime mainly followed) or another one. It's becoming more and more similar to the type of world Madoka inhabited with each chapter, but it seems strange that "Jyuubey" would help the magical girls restore their soul gems with witches still around.

It's in the same universe. Look at the top right panel of the first page carefully: there's your proof.

The suggestion that popped up on the wiki was that, since their wishes were pretty minor, they're rather weak. Hence why they hunt in group; with Juubey cleaning them, competition is not a factor either. And thus, being weak,

Things seem to be getting better. It's still really chaotic though.

it's getting more interesting (even if i didn't disliked the cliche way before xD)

i'm guessing different incubators are free to use different methods to gather energy, somehow to test more efficient methods, or simply to follow better their individial way to think (i'm hoping for the new cat like incubator to be one of the few with emotions)
it would be interesting to see a discussion between incubators about their work

I agree about that last XD I'm really glad there are spinoffs of PMMM because my biggest questions, a.k.a. more about Incubators, were left unanswered. Besides that, feels good to see somebody else than Kyuubey from their race or whatever. Also, nice cameo of Kyuubey XD

I am starting to say that this chapter picks up the heat. And so, another good chapter ended with spades.

Juubey, huh? And it purifies the gems by itself? Is it another type of Incubator or something else altogether? Really makes me wonder. It's definitely getting good now.

This chapter features a more interesting conflict than prior chapters. Looking forward to seeing where this goes.
