Sometimes I wonder if things would be better off if 7Arcs just stuck to the good ol' formula of whizbangs and pantsu rather than try to do a half-assed 26 episode essay on the wider world. Because the number of episodes have doubled, the pain of it all was squared.
The only good thing I suppose was to give doujin groups and fandom light novelists like us stuff to chew on... just that we're also chewing on them for mucking it up.

They already did that as an excuse to run 26 episodes of chaff. Giving more isn't going to cure the hubdrub it was to watch through some parts, and I was so fatigued that when we got to the action, it felt meh...

I'm quite curious how Force will deal with this. Vivid is obviously leaning on the NanoFate, I wonder if they'll reduce the NanoFate with Force? The two series are very much opposite of one another in terms of setting after all... |

I think Force will have little if any NanoFate at all. Nanoha and Fate aren't main characters anymore so I doubt they will do more than occasional ass kicking. |

According to StrikerS, Mage are distributed evenly to prevent jealousy amongst other things. However, Limiters is an acknowledged way to bypass that, though shari comment that it's "playing dirty". |

And hence, limiters are used to prevent jealousy.
It's quite simple really. The rules are in place to prevent jealousy. Breaking the rules causes jealousy. Using limiters allows you to break the rules without causing jealousy. Hence, limiters prevent jealousy. |

...particularly when the people being limited are famous throughout the military and therefore of jealousy-inducing celebrity status regardless of how big the pink beams o'doom are at any given time. Hence, as repeatedly stated, limiters are dumb.

Cast Overload really became a problem with StrikerS. In 26 episodes, it introduced more named characters than MGLN and A's did in their 26 episodes--and then used all of them alongside most of the returning cast from the first two shows. New villains are to be expected, but for example did there need to be so many new support staff in RF6? Mariel could have easily filled in for Shari's role, and Amy for at least one of Griffith and Luceno, and Alto is kind of superfluous. Likewise, Ginga's entire purpose in the story was to give Subaru an emotionally-charged one-on-one, but as Tea's battle showed, it wasn't necessary to have it be personal to be interesting (for example, they could have ditched Erio and Caro entirely and had Subaru take on Lutecia). It's not that any of the characters are necessarily bad, it's just that with so many of them, few could really get the development time necessary to really appreciate them and whenever they got a shot at the limelight it just broke up the flow of the story.
