Yuuki Aoi's and Saito Chiwa's voices are too good for this world.

Looking at the format and apparent scenario for the game, it almost looks like a spiritual sequel to the PSP game (in which the gameplay aspects were weak, but the story was a GREAT expansion of the story we all know and love).

Also, translating. [brackets] refer to onscreen text/dialogue. Anyone may feel free to use this wherever they like, no credit necessary (just don't say you did it yourself =P) :

Madoka: "We're... done for, too, aren't we..."
Madoka: "I... had a thought... What if, for this fight, Mami-san and the others had been here...?"
Homura: "What do you mean...?"
[The five Magical Girls combine their strength]
Madoka: "If everyone were to believe in each other and combine their strength... I thought that maybe we could have beat Walpurgisnacht..."
[and defeat Walpurgisnacht.]
Homura: "Believe... in each other...?
Madoka: "What do you think... Homura-chan... about this idea...?"
[That was--]
Homura: "...I'll try it! If that's the future you want... then I'll make sure that all five of us defeat Walpurgisnacht together!"
[Entrusted to end the Samsara of battles.] -TN: Yes, literally "samsara." The samsara is the Buddhist cycle of rebirth, which is an interesting choice of words here-
Madoka: "...That's great..."
[Her wish.]
Madoka: "Now... that's a promise... Homura-cha--"

Homura: "Like this, my true battle began."
[Puella Magi Madoka Magica: The Movie arrives to the PS Vita as a 3D action game]
[Kyuubey: (map screen) "It's a simulated battle between Sayaka and Akemi Homura. How will she challenge the girl who manipulates time?"]
[Kyuubey: "All five of you are joining together to exterminate Witches here. Why?"]
Homura: "So that I may grant the wish entrusted to me by Madoka."
[Homura: "The issue is the Witch this time--What should we do with the Rose Garden Witch?"] -TN: aka. Gertrud-
Homura: "From here, let's start the story of the five Magical Girls."

[Join the 5 Magical Girls--Exhilarating Magic Action]

Sayaka: "That's right. I'm going to protect Kyousuke and the townspeople. That's what a Magical Girl is, right?"
Kyouko: "I won't forgive anyone who decides to become a Magical Girl on a whim. Rather, I'd kick their butt."
Mami: "This is the first time I've fought with such happiness! Thank you, everyone. Even if it's a legendary Witch, if we have all five of us, we can win!"
Homura: "Walpurgisnacht suddenly appeared. This time, we'll settle it!"
Madoka: "Now, together... We can't let it keep going like this! I'm going to fight! If all five of us cooperate, it doesn't matter what Witch we face. We should be able to win! Right, Homura-chan?"

[Maximize the bonds of all five Magical Girls with "daytime conversations" and "nightime battles."]
[Once all the Magical Girls have joined together, a miracle will occur...]

Homura: "The one thing left to us Magical Girls to fight to the end..." -TN: Suddenly, I can't hear because of construction, so I'll revise this line later-

If the game has a huge focus on the story, it'd be a crime for me to import and not understand what's going on T.T
