Oh yes, that's the look I'm hoping for once she finally throws down with a certain perverted devil.
You and me both. The Azure Paladin Sayaka shall smite the foul Black Demon Homura, hopefully in season 2, and wipe that shit-eating grin out of her smug face.

In Urobuchi's stories, violence can't solve anything and only leads to more destruction. Only if Homura realizes that clinging to Madoka will lead to more suffering, there will be a way out.
The hope for a superior power that will give everyone an eternal happy life doesn't work here. A buddhistic point of view (google the Noble Eightfold path) fits the moralistic structur in Puella Magica better, in my opinion.

That just makes me anticipate their battle more.
Things won't end as neatly as Sayaka defeating Homura (unless she gets some sort of power-up with a devastating consequence, ala Hunter X Hunter, she won't even stand on even ground). I'm hoping the outcome of their fight will reverberate and set the stage for the series' inevitable conclusion.
It's a confrontation without a clear happy ending, and it should especially hit Madoka hard as she'll be forced to witness her two most important friends trying to kill each other...and all for her sake, too.
It's the best possible confrontation Urobuchi could have possibly come up with in this series. I really hope he follows through with it.
What can I say, Homura's actions as the Devil require a response... this confrontation between her and Sayaka is a part of that. I hope.

As much as I would like to see Sayaka do something, I doubt that she can without sacrificing herself in the process. The differences in power is way too much for Sayaka to handle, but if Madoka observes that sacrifice, no good comes with what is next,

I find this funny, since the ending of rebellion wasn't Gen's idea. I kind of do want a season 2 to answer the movies, but... I can wait, I want it to be good and the bar is set really high.
