How's that sounds?
Lame, actually. If there's no risk of inury, there's no thrill.

Sorry, I was still refering to Teana's example (which is basically where this whole mess started. )

And in my opinion, Barrier Jackets (The hat included) are mostly magic-base, seeing as how they can come out of nowhere.
At that moment? It was a Divine Buster.

But you might be right, it might be that magic damage can't penetrate the body, based on how an AMF doesn't effect the mages, other then disabling them.
Not to mention the only time Linker Cores were damaged was during the Yami no Sho incident. All other times, the damage was physical.

Ahh, but all of Nanoha's spells are purely magical in nature. But if you think magical spell, but physical impact, the tin-can incident suddenly makes sense.

And in this case, a mage without mana is someone who practically run 100 miles and is now exhausted.
That I agree on.

Yes, Negima does seem to reverse engineer the Nanoha effect, doesn't it?

I suppose I should explain my biggest gripe with this theory. This theory practically screams 'there is no risk of injury in Nanoha' going by this theory, it destroys all the tension in the first two seasons, because hey, they're only attacking the souls. No risk of killing them or anything. It's just... incredibly lame, as Hero in Disguise put it.

Juck, no thanks. If I wanted that I'd watch a normal magical girl show where people toss around pink hearts. Give me fatal injuries any day.
