Yup, they seems to be focused on magical martial arts, their device(if any) should be something that helps strenghen their bodies. I wonder if the original Olivie have powered herself with a Relic. Just remeber Saint Kaiser Vivio, she was a representation of Olivie's power and she was a pure striker.

Vivio and einhart seems to be "purer" in their style than them, tough. Actually focusing on adapting their bodies and using magic in combination with a discipline in martial arts which is something new to the franchise. Nove and Subaru and cyborgs who are more reliant on equipement and spells.

I'm not buying your argument. Plus, unlike Vivio, Olivie was involved in an actual war, against mass weaponry, Lost Logia, and mages using Devices. Not having a Device of her own would have been foolhardy. Klaus, too. |

Considering how ungodly powerfull Saint Kaiser Vivio was i wouldn't take Olivie's pure striker strenght lightly. She was remembered as the strongest for a reason xD!

It's not even certain that she ever gained control of the Cradle herself, after her family died. |

Also, they're genetically enhanced. Their originals had haxx powers like the Saint King Armor and so wouldn't need devices. |

Such forms wouldn't be of much physical use, but as Devices, they could still contribute to magical performance. Which is the primary point of any Device to begin with. Quote:
But whatever powers Klaus had, Einhart should have. Other than Adult Mode and lots of talent, that appears to be exactly nothing. She inherited his memories, but of course those weren't a special power bred into HIM; they were just his own memories. Rather than being the child of an enhanced bloodline, he seems more like the START of an enhanced bloodline. One that will probably continue to make his descendents miserable even after Einhart has lots of emotionally-fulfilling sex with the clone of his childhood sweetheart. |

Devices aren't one size fits all. Different designs have different functions, and said functions and designs are intertwined. This is not even beginning to add up that different martial art styles have different limitations. Vivid specifically pointed out that Ein's style is not suited for a regular device. Quote:

And that Olivie is clearly wearing bulky, protective gauntlets that reach all the way over her elbows. Quote:
Do we have conclusive proof that the two kings were NOT using something akin to the Hybrid Devices? Quote:
And we're already talking about a magically enhanced bloodline. It might have been designed to adapt to massive genetic drift. |

The point is, these guys were beasts that not only genetically enhanced themselves, but also stuffed Relics into their bodies to further boost their powers. Given their already extraordinary power levels, it makes perfect sense for them not to have devices. Yes, but that's a maybe, not a fact. |

Taken from the image thread about the developement of the school lives and firendship of the circle of friends comprissed of Nanoha, Fate, Arisa and Suzuka xD
I'm not talking about a full season focused on them but a couple of ovas or omakes based on that would be funny, entertaining and even a bit helpful into develping better the transition from A's to StrikerS.

Yeah, I know what you mean. I'd like that too, but it would include Arf and Yuuno, along with Nanoha's parents, so...I doubt they'd do anything like that, since they've demoted those characters to extras or less-than extras.

I want the Scrya to return from whatever black hole they fell into, rejoice that Yuuno has actually found friends his own age, and then force him to attend school on Earth to keep a good thing going.
Meanwhile, Zafira joins a local dojo as a karate instructor, and Arf becomes one of his students. (Hell, if Signum could become a kendo teacher...) |

Nah, Arisa is able to steal the camera without the need of being the main character. Also part of the fun is seeing how Nanoha and Fate are dragged into bits of a normal schoolgirl live with her friends.
A Fate + Arisa friendship episode could be amusing xD. According to the A's manga, she was indeed a Kendo teacher(well, more like a Kendo instructor but it's almost the same xD).
