Gomakashi (ごまかし lit. Deception?) is the first opening theme for Magia Record: Puella Magi Madoka☆Magica Side Story anime. It was performed by TrySail, the voice actresses for Iroha Tamaki, Yachiyo Nanami, and Tsuruno Yui.

Outside of the franchise, there has been a remix made titled Gomakashi (Aiobahn Remix).

Sequence

The opening begins with a shot of a cherry blossom tree and Iroha in her room as the screen turns white with colorful raindrops leading up to the show title.

A drop is shown and then Iroha with Small Kyubey lookin to the sky, as they walk up a street and a car of Kyubeys passes them, with the weather transitioning to rain. Then, Iroha starts running some downstairs until she falls from them. Yachiyo comes to help her get holding an umbrella. Then, shots occur from various main characters, Tsuruno at Banbanzai, Rena. Kaede and Momoko at an arcade trying their luck, Felicia sliding down a stair rail, Sana with various animals, Mitama laying on a couch, the Holy Quintet together, Alina Gray in a basement and Small Kyubey jumpin on the screen. Iroha's Soul Gem is screened before showcasing her and her Magical Girl spirit fusing into her Magical Girl form.

The chorus part shows Yachiyo, Tsuruno, Felicia and Sana with Iroha performing their attacks. Ui appears roughly behind Iroha's back talking to her. But when Iroha turns back she sees onlu a bird flying past her, which frustrates her, she then listen to the voices of her friends and runs towards them. Then it ascends to sky showing the show's title again.

Lyrics

Momo Asakura　Sora Amamiya　Shiina Natsukawa

Inai inai sono kokoro
Surinukete matataita

Enjite ita sekai wa
Itami wakaranakute zurui yo
Noizu wo ukeiretara
Kasuka ni kikoeru koe

Hibi no haitta negai
Biidama mitai ni
Yori kirei ni natta
Sotto [All] warenai you

Namida mo mayoi mo nanimo kamo shirazu ni
Doko de doko de mayotteru no?
Moshimo honno wazuka na ima zeitaku ni matottara
Kimi no hitomi ni utsutta shinjitsu dake wo sukuitotte narabou
Shinjita kyou e

Tashika ni ita nichijou wa
Mabataki shitara sashikawatta
Aizu mo todokanai hodo
Fukaku tokekonde ita

Uso no haitta iro
Nijinde shimatte

Torikirenaku natta
Kitto [All] wasurete iku

Aimai na e no naka tesaguri egaiteku
Kimi wa kimi wa waratteru no?
Konna sunda sora no shita de wa
Mitsukerarenai mono
Kage ni kakusu omoi wa inori no me wo nusunde zutto mamorou

Kakawari wa sawarenai kyori ni oite kite
Nanimo kiezu watashi no naka kizande hikaru

Namida mo mayoi mo nanimo kamo shirazu ni
Doko de doko de mayotteru no?
Moshimo honno wazuka na ima zeitaku ni matottara
kimi no hitomi ni utsutta shinjitsu dake wo sukuitotte [All] narabou
shinjita kyou e

surinukete matataita

いない いない その心
すり抜けて瞬いた

演じていた世界は
痛みわからなくてずるいよ
ノイズを受け入れたら
微かに聞こえる声

ひびの入った願い
ビー玉みたいに
より綺麗になった
そっと割れないよう

涙も迷いも何もかも知らずに
どこでどこで迷ってるの？
もしもほんの僅かな今 贅沢に纏ったら
君の瞳に映った真実だけを すくい取って 並ぼう
信じた今日へ

確かにいた日常は
瞬きしたら差し代わった
合図も届かないほど
深く溶け込んでいた

嘘の入った色 滲んでしまって
取りきれなくなった きっと忘れてく

曖昧な絵の中手探り描いてく
君は君は笑ってるの？
ほんの澄んだ空の下では 見つけられないもの
影に隠す思いは祈りの目を 盗んでずっと守ろう

かかわりは触れない
距離に置いていた
何も消えず私の中刻んで光る

涙も迷いも何もかも知らずに
どこでどこで迷ってるの？

もしもほんの僅かな今 贅沢に纏ったら
君の瞳に映った真実だけを すくい取って並ぼう
信じた今日へ

すり抜けて瞬いた

Trivia

  • The Cherry blossom that appears at the beginning could be a reference to the Rumor of the Ten-Thousand-Year Sakura.
  • The rain scene of Iroha and Yachiyo could reflect to Yachiyo's water powers.
  • Rena, Kaede and Momoko's scene depicts them in a claws machine, which is one of Kaede's hobbies and the place she met Rena.
  • The background in Felicia's scene appears to be based on a cow, which is coincidentally Felicia's favourite animal.
  • Sana is shown with many cats in her scene. Coincidentally, her favourite childhood animated series focusing around a cat named "Mr. Pursss-a-lot".
  • In Holy Quintet's scene, a blood moon is above Madoka and Homura. In ancient civilizations, blood moon was considered an omen of death.
    • Even though Madoka appears only once in a flashback and Homura debuts in episode 14, they're included in the opening sequence.
  • In episode 8, the song plays a little earlier than the actual sequence as an insert song in the radio that plays in Iroha's room. As a result, the opening sequence starts with the show's title scene instead and in the final scene, the voice of the drama actor is audible.
