>>32413012It's not yuri pandering, it's literally the entire premise of the series and the core motivation of the protagonist, I'm pretty sure they literally talking about their strings of fate being intertwined in the original series. If you mean
Sayaka/Kyouko then I guess it's a bit pandering but also they literally died to each other after Sayaka failed to save Kyouko and Sayaka's main other love interest was repeatedly shown to be if not a trash person then at least a confused, not-interested teenager.As for the resolution...well, there is that sequel to Rebellion coming up, though IIRC that one takes place sometime between Rebellion and the main series, but that also means there's a chance that they'd make a post-Rebellion movie.
That being said, I don't really see it as much of a cliffhanger.
There's the acknowledgement that Madoka can/will eventually break free, but Homura is willing to fight her and the universe over and over to get what she wants/protect Madoka. That's basically a "stable" ending, especially since Homura has the Incubators under her literal thumb.
