cause its fun to see people die j/k
basically it just makes the whole ordeal more realistic...you cant expect fighting with no death toll...

[Nemesis]

I sincernly hope the 4th unknown faction that is smuggling the relics would be revealed in this one.

[Darco_emp]

I guess new OP is the main thing I'm hoping for... Since this is a recovery ep I'm expecting a depressed setting from all of MD6.

In terms of plot development I hope its not snail speed consider the amount needed to cover still, but in general I expect these kind of ep to be slow in that department, so I'm placing my hope in the new OP, if it comes...

[Thisguy]

Other than that, connection is failing so I'm waiting for nico... damn.

There are two misconceptions about MGLN as a whole, and yet again I see them in this thread.
MGLN is definitely not realistic, and not an action anime.

In Gundam, yes, you can kill people at whim. Not in MGLN.

Ah yes, a fellow Tomino-ist.

Not only Numbers! A few numbers and a few TSAB main characters could be killed off but not in this episode, but gradually.

Yeah, we're going to see Ginga and Vivio in glass jars. Lol!

[asaqe]

Alright, someone who thinks the same thing as I do!

[Darco_emp]

Looking over the screencaps, Looks like Nanoha found the bunny, now you just need to go berserk against those who damaged the bunny

*imagines Super Seiyan Nanoha*

[Nightengale]

Oh god, OP2 hates the males. Only Zest got any respectable amount of showcase. (( With Signum )) And a little of Genya and Jail.

The hell? Even Due is hidden from the OP. Athra is clear in sight though.

Here's the nico link for anyone who's got an account.

[aers]

Christ, like thisguy my connection failed horribly today (tbh I think I'm banned from the peercasts but anyway).

Nanoha losing her cool really freaked me out. The new OP is cool. That's about all I can say >_>

Only screencap I have related:

Spoiler for 18:

I can live with the lack of males, indeed I can .

I miss Athra, Its good indeed to see its back.

Edit: Grrr... Vivio is crying... I wanna kill someone...., and finally we are going to have Signum vs Erio

why cant you kill people? how is it not realistic for people to die in fights like that? how is it not an action anime? it may not be all action but nonetheless action is appart of the genre ~ what i want to see is for this series to grow up from its roots from being "all happy go lucky friends" to something darker ~ (yes darker than seeing fate chan being tortured >_<)

edit: lol the new OP...i see nanoha going crazy XD and subaru going "kamehameha!!"

Hooray, Subaru is going all the way to teh protagonist

Aside from every little implications in OP that may or may not have importance, the first shot of Subaru still has Velka circle under her...
Does that mean she won't use her IS and fight as a "human"?

[krisslanza]

Arrrgh I wanna see that video but I can't read enough japanese to navigate through a japanese site... *Cry, cry*

If you're talking FIRST shot, there's clearly an IS circle behind her... but since her IS is h4xx against close-combat anything and Nove's her primary designated rival, I doubt she'll be using it much, if she can control it.

My biggest LOL was Alto (( I think )) taking over Vice's heli-pilot job. You had a good run, Vice.

Otherwise, the OP was very "conventionally boring". Nothing spoileric aside from Athra, there's no indication at all if the story will extend outside Mid-childa to TSA HQ, or anything. Heck, Due and Ginga are conveniently missing from the OP, and even the 'black thing' Nanoha faces in the OP cannot be seen clearly. And Fate isn't even facing her "rivals", spending time chopping up Drones in the lab. (( not even an indication, since Nanoha OP battle-scenes are quite random. ))

[FlareKnight]

Yeah we finally got the new OP that's for sure.

Well at least we've got some insights into matchups though some were predicted. Of course it seems Signum is going to be the next one to step up against Zest. Though he's using unison but I don't see anything to suggest Signum is going to require that same help. Which would make sense since Rein when she's able will probably be supporting Hayate. Plus the fight it seems of Caro vs Lutecia while Erio is going to get yet another shot against Garyuu (he's gotta win eventually right?)

Yep poor Vice. Maybe when they are getting the injured out he said something to warrant becoming a stain on Lavantine .
