Background:

Gama Yuuji is an exchange student from Brazil who starts studying at the same school as Madoka and Cia shortly after Sayaka Miki becomes a magical girl. She leaves Mitakihara right after Sayaka and Sakura's deaths, as the mood got very depressing and she hates it. It was Yuuji's dream to go to Japan to meet and have fun with other magical girls, since in her country there weren't many.

The desire that turned her into a magical girl was to become a girl. Yuuji was born male and hated himself for it. Her parents condemned and punished her for her feminine antics, but Kyuubei clearly saw the feminine emotions simmering in her and so offered the proposal. The past of everyone around her was altered as if Yuuji had actually been born female.
