Magical Girl Lyrical Nanoha A's

Rya, I have to admit, you ARE a sick bastard. And so do I Razz

(I was hoping for a bit more Laughing

)

But I daresay this though. This anime might br on par, heck might even better than Shakugan no Shana in terms of action. The only thing that bothers me is the OP, which is solely based on my preference.

But in this one is kinda like Eureka 7, where there is no "bad" or "good". There are only, quoting Eisen or Sniper or somebody else from the Eureka thread, "them" and "us". And that will always bring drama.

Well for me, Nanoha reminded me heavily of Sakura not only because she's a mage like her (in a different sense Razz

) but also the fact that she looks like her Laughing

But the similarities ended there. Maybe it will still have elements of CCS, maybe it will not, but let's not be bugged by this "coincidence" or "plagiarism" and watch it as it is.

Well kinda Razz

Or maybe more towards that gun-slinging gal in Erementar Gerad. But she got the voice of Sakura from Da Capo, so kinda hit the mark there Laughing

But it doesnt matter anyway. I will be expecting very dark storyline from this series though. Just hoping it will not dissappoint me

wow. So, is it better to watch the first season before starting this? Is the first seasons till being able to download it?? I really like the costumes they have. I see a lot of the bunny hat thing going on. I really would want one!

well then just saw ep 5... a bit late though

Hmmm, so those Velka knights aren't really humans... Wonder what they will fell about that Razz

since they got human-like quality and their reason to complete the book is to make Hayate their master, thus they can live with her forever

For some reason, that Velka knight loli girl reminds me of female dwarf from Lineage 2.
This season is so much better than the first one, there's no shortage of magic pawnage in every episode.

I like the sword wielding Velka knight. I think armoured girls are kinda sexy...

*hotlinked, return as a broken link*
Quick Translation
Vita:Allies?
Vita:...
Fate:Wife.

just saw episode 7

It starts off slow, ending up as a pwnage. Basically the most of the first half shows what lead to that standoff we see in episode 6, and Fate trying to adept to Earth's lifestyle.

Signum vs Fate is certainly the greatest fight in all of this season. Respect to each other leads Fate to save her from that snake-like thing. And they really put up one hell of a fight.

Vita vs Nanoha can be comedic in some manner, with Vita kept on forgetting her name Laughing

but Divine Buster, with two catridges is certainly another eye-candy

Karifa slipped something out in that battle with Arf. Wonder what was it like with the last incident, and I really wonder what was that masked man role in this one.

Fate's Linker Core now has been stolen... this will set up for a dramatic ending it seems

Episode 7

What the... they all have breasts suddenly...
Animation style changes abruptly again, just like it used to in the first season... One minute the character is flat chested, next minute in different angle she has huge breasts. Also some breasts were drawn very poorly, kind of assymetrically. I don't know what this was about, were they trying to increase some fanservice? Or were they just experimenting with animations?
This episode had lot of odd angle shots, which are nice in some shots, while others are just too weird looking.
Oh but the battle scene quality actually looked better than usual.

Something was wrong with the drawings but atleast the animation worked.

Nice battle there between Fate and Signum. Where did Fate learn all these battle poses? She looked really cool sometimes.

So that masked guy is Chrono's dad huh? Will be interesting to see what really happened.

episode 8 and 9

Damn, this one doesn't ceased to amaze me with it's complexity of the stories. Even though it seems simple, but man, the feelings were not. How many times I have been left with my mouth hanging open and the feeling of "WTF?!" (for the record, GSD only made me do that once, and that is when they first show us Destroy Gundam)

But really, in a sense this could be better than Naruto (with the exception, of course, of Naruto vs Sasuke). I was taken aback when tears fell down on the cheek of Signum and Vita, more taken aback when Nanoha said "If I am a devil, so be it. I will use my hellish tool to make you listen", and was somewhat feel proud when Signum said "If the circumstances are different, we could really be good friends".

Saddening indeed when Hayate was brought there, and see the circumstances there. It forced her to accept the Book, and now the book itself has merged into her (thus, the loli-to-grownup transformation), and also pictures her true feelings, her sadness of seeing the 4 knights like that...

WE NEED MOAR!!! That's the only words that can sum this episodes in a packet

The Masked Men are actually the Leisz twins and the man after the book of darkness is actually the head of the time space bureau's leader. The card based spells are based off the that guy's spells that is why both Chrono and his dad uses the same type of casting style. Hayate Yagami will join the united front of both Nanoha and Fate through powerful yuri vibes after Fate discovers another dimension through the power of the tome of the night. After all this occurs the final showdown will involve the true evils in the storyline who is pulling the strings and then Nanoha and Fate will go to school with Yagami Hayate.

Or I could be lying. Above the worst spoiler possible.
