Still biased towards Madoka despite not watching Nanoha, though, so

Madoka's problem was that she was more a plot device than a character. She existed for no other reason than to be an object for the narrative to revolve around. She spent 99% of her screentime being a useless whiny baby and had no likable traits. Had the show focused on the original timeline where she was actually a magical girl it might have been different. But the Madoka they presented to us was just immensely weak and not very likable, every other character in the show outshined her. I mean shit even the damned alien rat outshined her. On the flipside Nanoha had over 50 episodes to flesh out her character and make her likable.
You should watch Nanoha, fantastic show, one of my all time favorites.
