Spoiler for A's SS03:

01 - Haru ga Kite
01 - Spring Has Arrived! or Spring is here!

Nanoha: After many meetings and partings, the Yami no Sho incident was over. The New Year began, and winter ended. Then spring arrived... Fate-chan!
Fate: Nanoha.
Nanoha: Good morning Fate-chan!
Fate: Good morning Nanoha.
Nanoha: Wow, we're in fourth grade already. After last year's Christmas, everything was over in a blink of an eye.
Fate: Yeah, you're right. With elementary school, work with the TSAB, technical skills training and qualification exams, it looks like we're going to be pretty busy.
Nanoha: Yup, but it sounds like fun.
Fate: Yeah, you're right.
Nanoha: Even if I'm all over the place, it's great that I'm with Fate-chan.
Fate: Yeah, if I'm with Nanoha-chan I feel a lot happier and stronger.
Nanoha: That reminds me, about Hayate-chan.
Fate: Oh, did you get an email?
Nanoha: Yeah. It looks like she won't make it to class today but she'll be there tomorrow.
Fate: It looks like we're going to be in the same class, I'm looking forward to it.
Nanoha: Yeah!

Mahou Shoujo Lyrical Nanoha A's Sound Stage 03. Episode 14: From here on... (After this...)

02 - Yagami Uchi no Sono ato
02 - Afterwards, at the Yagami Household

Announcer: Ms. Yagami. Ms. Yagami Hayate, please come in.
Hayate: Okay!
Ishida: It's amazing Hayate-chan. It's getting a lot better.
Hayate: Really?
Ishida: I bet the senses in your legs have mostly returned.
Hayate: Yes it came back.
Ishida: Good, if this keeps, you should make a full recovery.
Hayate: It's all thanks to you, Dr. Ishida.
Ishida: No, no. It's because Hayate-chan worked so hard. You haven't had any spasms either. Tomorrow you can even go back to school. Have you gotten your school uniform, and school supplies?
Hayate: Yup, all of it.
Ishida: I see. For now though you'll still be in your wheelchair.
Hayate: It seems that they are putting me in classroom on the first floor, it's all right.
Ishida: As expected of the muncipalility. They're really accommodating.
Hayate: Yup they are.
Ishida: It'll take some more time before you can start standing and walking though. I know that rehabilitation is going to be difficult but let's work together okay.
Hayate: Yes.
Ishida: Oh that reminds me, how is Signum-san and Shamal-san doing?
Hayate: Oh, they're doing really really well.

Signum: Well then, Admiral Letti, we'll be excusing ourselves now.
Letti: Okay, sorry about this. It turned into a dishonor duty (bad translation) but you helped a lot. Thanks for your hard work.
Shamal: Oh no, thank you.
Letti: I'll see you again tomorrow Signum. Please bring Vita with you since there are going to be Combat corps lectures. You know when and where right?
Signum: I expect to receive a message about it sometime today.
Letti: Right. I'll see you the day after tomorrow Shamal, please bring Zafila. I'll be sending you to a branch office.
Shamal: Yes.
Letti: Okay then, make sure to rest today. And say 'hello' to Hayate-chan for me.
S+S: Thank you for your hard work.

Shamal: Phew. Bureau work causes a lot of stiff shoulders.
Signum: I guess it because your work involves a lot hospital/medical bureaucracy. You have a lot of worries to deal with. Though I heard you’re very convenient with lots of things.
Shamal: Really? I think I'm doing my job correctly. Signum, you've been seeing/meeting Nanoha-chan a lot lately, haven't you?
Signum: Yeah, that girl is a Combat corps officer cadet (bad translation). Yesterday I got to talk to her for a good long while for the first time.
Shamal: Oh, what do you talk about it?
Signum: Oh, it wasn't a particularly a particularly deep conversation but we came to an understanding as people and comrades.
Shamal: Vita-chan, as usual, still regards it as a frank rivalry with Nanoha-chan.
Signum: Having some competition (someone to compete with) is a good thing... In more ways than one.
Shamal: You mean like you and your Testarrossa-chan?
Signum: It's not as if I'm competing against her. My personal strength is still well above hers.
Shamal: Okay, okay. I understand.
Signum: That reminds me, is Vita and Zafila with Master Hayate?
Shamal: Yup, they should be at the hospital together.

Girl: Oh how cu~te! Cute~! How cu-te!
Girl2: Really. So fluffy!
(Zafila: Will you just...)
Girl2: Oh having such a cute little dog would be the cutest.
Girl: What breed of dog is he?
Vita: Um... What breed is Zafila?
(Zafila: I don't recall such a thing from my birth.)
Vita: I guess he's a mixed breed.
Girl: I knew it!
Girl2: But a mixed breed is alright. They're quite noble looking!
Girl: Zafila-kun eh? What a cool name.
Girl2: Yeah...
Vita: Heh heh. He's a very civil dog. (bad translation)
(Zafila: Vita, isn't there a way to depart from these two?)
Girl: Over here. Over here.
Girl2. Good boy, good boy.
Girl+Girl2: (says a bunch random nonsense cutesy words to Zafila)
(Vita: Oh don't say that. Getting along with the neighbors is a good thing.)
(Zafila: However... That may be so... but this ordeal is...)
(Vita: But you just mastered the child form. You better get used it now. The familiar at Testarossa's probably had to go through the same thing.) (very bad translation... I don't know what the hell iita just said)
Girl2: Oh that's not fair! Not fair!
Vita: But... it's really nice day today. (bad translation)


03. Ohanami?
03. Flower Viewing?

Suzuka: It really is wonderful weather.
Alisa: It's great and all, but it's making me all sleepy.
Fate: Fight it Alisa. You don't want our new classmate Hayate tomorrow thinking you're a sleepy head.
Alisa: I don't want that. Oh that reminds me. We haven't gone out for flower viewing this year yet have we?
Suzuka: Oh, it rained last time and we kind of forgot to plan it out again.
Fate: Flower viewing? Oh you mean, while you watch Sakura's (cherry blossoms), you eat lunch under them.
Alisa: You're a little off, but you pretty much got it.
Suzuka: While watching the flowers, you pass the time pleasantly.
Nanoha: I think admiring the passing season and experiencing the elegant falling cherry blossoms is the main point.
Alisa: Well for adults I feel that drinking and make merry seems to be the point.
Suzuka: Well then, what about this weekend? Are you free? I can hold a spot in the usual place for everyone.
Nanoha: Let's see. I'm fine for all of Saturday.
Fate: Same with me.
Alisa: I'm okay this weekend.
Suzuka: Well then, try to keep that day open. Since there's lots of space, we should invite our families, friends and anyone else who comes to mind.
All: Okay!
Suzuka: Well then, I'll invite everyone I know who will come.
Nanoha: Me too.
Fate: I wonder if I can reach Chrono?
Alisa: I think I'll send an email off to papa.


04. Guruguru renrakumou
04. A Flurry of Calls

Hayate: Hello this is Hayate. Oh Suzuka-chan! What's up? Oh, flower watching/viewing? That sounds like a great idea.
Chrono: Oh, Fate. Yeah, it's Chrono. This Saturday. Um, yeah all I have is paperwork that day. I can get out for a bit. I think Amy and the Captain don't have much to do that day either.
Miyuki: Oh Nanoha, yeah it's me. What's going on? Flower watching? Yes, yes I will definitely go! I wonder if Amy will be coming. Hm? Oh, I see.
Amy: Flower watching? That's a good idea. I love these sort of things. So there's only kids so far, I'll try to find some adults to join in. No problem. Leave the inviting and informing to the communications specialist. (bad translation)
Lindy: Ah, something that Fate-san and the other's planned. It's okay then, I can take a break that day. I see, so Arissa-san's father is coming too. I wonder then if I can invite some other adults too. I think I'll go ask Letti if she wants to come, she wants to enjoy an early summer. (bad translation)
Letti: Hm, well I am curious about their world's culture and all. I don't mind. What type of festivities is it? Watching flowers and eating. It's like a picnic? Oh so I guess I don't need to prepare anything special. That reminds me, what about Signum and the others.
Signum: Yes. It appears that a friend of Master Hayate first passed the message to Testarossa who then passed it to the Admiral/Captain. (bad translation)
Shamal: And we happen to have nothing to do that day either. And they are Hayate's best friends, I wonder if we can go it?
Vita: Really? Thank you very much!
Shamal: I heard that they won't mind having lots of people around. I guess we can try to invite someone we owe quite a lot to it too.
Ishida: This is Uminari Hospital's Doctor Ishida. Oh Shamal-san. Saturday? I have a shift of Friday but on Saturday afternoon I'm free. Oh flower viewing! The sakura's (cherry blossoms) are quite beautiful. Oh? I'm happy that your inviting me but is it really all right? Isn't it for family members only? I see, though I will be a little late, I'll be coming. Really? That many people? Just how many people are coming?

Amy: More than 20 people say they're coming. Add in the parents and others, it might go over 30 people.
Alex: It's going to be one heck of a large banquet/party.
Randy: Not a party Alex, it's a elegant gathering.
Amy: Well, they're about the same thing. Any case, me and Miyuki-chan are coordinating everything. It would really help if you two could gather all the people from the TSAB who wants to come.
Alex: I don't mind.
Randy: As long as I can have my share of food and drink I'll do it.
Amy: Oh, just leave it to me.

Alph: Whoa, looks the party is getting really big.
Fate: It's everyone day's off, so I'm sure it'll be really fun.
Alph: I wonder if there'll be meat. I want the big ones that surround the bone. You know, the ones that were at the last anniversary party. Those were the tastiest.
Fate: I'll ask Amy. I'm sure she'll prepare some for you.
Alph: Yeah!

Nanoha: This is the first time I get to go flower watching with Yuuno during the day.
Yuuno: Yeah.
Nanoha: Last year's Sakura were mostly gone.
Yuuno: But they were still very pretty.
Nanoha: It was great watching them with just the two of us, but it'll be better with everyone. I'm really looking forward to it.
Yuuno: Yeah, I look forward to it too.

Amy: In short Miyuki-chan, I'll be handling the people from the TSAB and the food over here.
Miyuki: Okay, I'll be handling the location and the drinks over here.
Amy: Heh heh, I'm really great at this sort of thing, it's so much fun.
Miyuki: Oh I know what you mean.
Amy: I'll be heading over there soon to see you then.
Miyuki: Sure, I'll be waiting!


05 - Hayate to Kishitachi Okurimono to, Yakusoku to
05 - The Gift and Promise to Hayate and the Knights

Shamal: I'm home.
Hayate: Oh Shamal, welcome home.
Vita: Welcome home.
Shamal: I'm home everyone, the bakery in front of the train station just made some bread, so I bought some... What the? Why is the school uniform laid out like that. Can it be, it's time for Hayate to try and wear them?
Signum: Lower your voice, it's rude. (bad translation)
Hayate: Now, now.
Shamal: Oh, I can't believe you went and did something fun behind my back while I was out.
Viita: You saw it when you got it out and sized it up against her before, Shamal.
Shamal: But it's completely different from seeing her in it!
Hayate: Don't worry about it, I was about to get changed right now.
Signum: Still, I'm a bit worried. While you're at school we won't be able to help you in anyway.
Hayate: Hm, don't worry about it. I was mostly able to do everything on my own before.
Viita: Well, that might be true...
Hayate: Nanoha-chan, Fate-chan, Alisa-chan and Suzuka-chan will be with me. And Admiral Letti pretty much ordered me to finish my compulsory education. I'm going to give it my all as a elementary student.
Vita: Work hard.
Hayate: Hm, I guess I'm done.
Shamal: Ah~... I knew it, it's so cute.
Signum: Yes, it suits her very much.
Viita: Here's a mirror.
Shamal: Hayate-chan, how is it to you?
Hayate: Um, I really look like Suzuka and the other's.
Viita: Hey Zafila, take a look at Hayate in her uniform.
Hayate: Zafila, what do you think?
Zafila: It looks wonderful on you, my Master.
Hayate: Thanks a lot. But you know, it's thanks to you that I can get to live my life in peace right now. Thank you so much, everyone.
Shamal: What are you saying?
Signum: Protecting and saving our Master is the duty of us Knights. If it's for a beloved Master, we would overcome anything.
Vita: That's right.
Zafila: And to save you, there are still things we have many things to answer for. (bad translation)
Shamal: Because of our actions/collecting, Hayate-chan got mixed up with the TSAB and their missions.
Hayate: Oh that's fine, what's really the problem is my management responsibility of everyone. There's nothing for you to get anxious about... and besides, I've robbed everyone of eternity.
Signum: Oh, you mean the deletion of the rebirth/renewal program? (die and come back to life... Phoenix down!!!)
Hayate: I told you a bit before when we were separating and deleted Reinforce and defense program, everyone's rebirth program won't work anymore. The four knight system right now is running on my life. If I die, you won't be able return to life.
Vita: Oh, it's only about that.
Shamal: We think of it as a gift from Reinforce.
Hayate: A gift?
Zafila: The aimless endless journey finally ends, we shall remain by our master's side as long as we can, and spend the time left together before seeing our master to the end and then we shall disappear. It's similar to a mortal person's life. (bad translation)
Shamal: We were freed from the prison of eternal life by Hayate and Reinforce.
Vita: To live with Hayate, and see Hayate to the end. Then when we feel like it, we'll finally sleep and join Hayate and Rein in the sky above.
Signum: Thus it is a gift. It's something to be thankful for, not something to feel guilty/saddened by. Do you understand?
Hayate: Really?
Vita: Hayate...
Hayate: That's right. Well then let's live together. From now to the end, we'll be together.
Signum: Yes.
Shamal: Of course. And for that child too, we'll live Reinforce's part as well. (Bad translation, Since Reinforce died, they'll live on for Reinforce's sake since she can't experience life.)
Zafila: As long as life remains within us/our bodies.
Vita: Because we're Hayate's Knights.


07 - Ohanami desu
07 - It's flower watching

Nanoha: Then it was Saturday. It seems like everyone's prayers were answered because the sky was completely clear. The wind was kinda of cold, but the sun was wonderfully warm. A perfect day for looking at the flowers.
Miyuki: Wait, wait... Okay. It looks all right.
Ami: Well then, to everyone here, sorry to keep ya waiting. I’m your host for the day, TSAB support officer Ami Limeitta!
Miyuki: I'm Takamichi Nanoha’s older sister and Ami’s civilian friend, Takamichi Miyuki! And now for the woman responsible encouraging this... (bad translation)
Ami: From the same TSAB as me, Admiral Lindy. I think we would like her to make a toast.
Lindy: Hello everyone, good afternoon! It’s a wonderfully clear day today. To the people of this world, particularly to the parents and siblings of those involved in the recent incidents, who listened to us explain the existence and situation of the TSAB and alternate worlds there are still a few who aren’t friends with us all yet. I believe meetings as these are an important way of making more friends. But let’s put such heavy talk aside today and turn our eyes to the flowers, eat our fill and pass our time with pleasant talk. So in honor of this merry day, cheers! (bad translation)
All: Cheers!
Ami: Okay everyone, please don’t just stay in one group but walk around and take care talk to those who are quiet. (bad translation)
Miyuki: Oh and for the adults in the party, please take care not to drink too much alcohol.
Nanoha: Whoa, the party turned out to be really big.
Fate: Yeah, most of the Arthra crew is here, so there must be about 50 people.
Nanoha: The adults from this side, is my dad, Alisa-chan’s father and Suzuka-chan’s mother and.
Alisa: Oh my papa, ever since the toast, he’s already on his third or fourth drink.
Nanoha: Ah hahaha, well those two really do get along. (Huh? Who? Alisa’s dad and Suzuka’s mom?)
Suzuka: Oh and I heard Dr. Ishida is coming.
Fate: Huh?
Nanoha: But has Dr. Ishida been told about the TSAB or magic?
Alisa: She doesn’t know, does she?
Suzuka: Oh, now that you mention it...
Hayate: Ha ha ha, we’ll just have to keep it a secret from her I guess, but I wouldn’t worry about it too much since we got permission from Admiral Lindy and Admiral Letti.
Alisa: Oh I see.
Suzuka: Then we’ll keep it a secret from her.
Hayate: Sorry about that.
Alisa: Well then, let’s wander around a bit, greet some people in the hustle and bustle, eat a little bit and then let’s go sit down at our special place.
Fate: Special place, what’s that?
Nanoha: Heh, it’s a secret place we have.
Suzuka: It’s a really beautiful place.
Alisa: Let’s go and see some people, Suzuka.
Suzuka: Okay, we’ll see you latter.
Fate: Okay, I’ll see you later.
Hayate: Well then, I’ll be going too. I need to go see Admiral Lindy and the Asura crew.
Nanoha: I just saw some Combat Mages (busou tai), so I’m going to and see them.
Fate: Okay, have fun.
Nanoha: Here I go.
Hayate: See you later.




08 - Fate no Uta wa...
08 - Fate's song is...

Alph: Ahahah! Oh meat! MEAT!
Randy: Oh, hey Arf! Don't take it all! Share some of it with...
Alph: Gr, shut up. You're a human, so just eat vegs. I'm a wolf, so I eat meat!
Alex: Eating the meat infront of you like a wild animal.
Fate: Arf, you can't do that!
Alph: Oh Fate!
Randy: Fate-chan.
Fate: Sorry about this, Alex, Randy. Arf, you've got to share with everyone.
Alph: Ahaha... it was just a joke, that's all. Let's all eat together, okay.
Randy: She's lying, isn't she?
Alex: She definitely had the eyes of a wild animal.
Alph: Don't make me bite you.
Fate: Don't put it back... What's going on?
Randy: Oh, it looks they're doing karaoke.
Alex: Fate-chan, why don't you go sing for us?
Alph: Oh, that's a great idea Fate, you should do the song Linis wrote.
Fate: But... but it's so embarassing.
Alex: But I heard that Fate-chan is really good though.
Randy: Yeah. Yeah.
Fate: Um, that is... um... um...
Shamal: Are you shy?
Signum: Abusing/bulllying children now, Alex, Randy-kun.
Fate: Signum, Shamal-san.
Alex: Oh Signum-san, that's not it at all.
Randy: We're only just requested her to sing a song.
Alph: That's right.
Shamal: A song?
Signum: Oh, you mean on that music terminal and microphone connected device.
Shamal: Really now, start trying to remember this world's terminologies/words/terms, it's called Karaoke.
Fate: Yes that.
Signum: A song...
Fate: Er... Signum... why are you staring at me like that?
Signum: It sounds like a wonderful idea. Why don't you sing for us, Testarossa.
Fate: What!
Shamal: Oh, I see Nanoha-chan and Yuuno-kun. Nanoha-chan! Yuuno-kun! Do you want to hear Fate-chan sing!
Nanoha: Yes I do.
Yuuno: So do I.
Signum: It's settled then.
Alph: Hey, Fate wants to sing next!
Girl: Okay!
Shamal: There you go then.
Fate: Ur... Don't laugh if I sing badly, okay, everyone.
All: Yeah!
Signum: I look forward to listening to you.


10 - Fate to Signum
10 - Fate and Signum

Guy: Fate-chan!
Fate: Tha... Thank you very much... Oh that was so embarrassing. It was weird wasn't it?
Signum: Testarossa.
Fate: Yes?
Signum: It was a good song. You sing very well.
Fate: Thank you very much, Signum.
Shamal: Testarossa-chan, you were amazing. My heart is beating really fast.
Alph: Fate's is great at singing.
Signum: I like listening to good songs. Would you sometimes let me hear you sing in the future?
Fate: Um, if you wish.
Signum: I do.
Shamal: Oh by the way, that meat looks really delicious. Can I have some?
Alex: Go right ahead.
Randy: Be careful though, you don't want to get bitten by that wolf.
Alph: Grr!
Shamal: I'll try to be careful!
Signum: However, I told you to stop addressing me so formally.
Fate: Even if you tell me that, I was taught by my tutor to address my elders formally. Well, when the percentage of my sparring victories surpasses losses, I'll feel confident enough to speak to you as your equal. Eh heh.
Signum: Oh, if that's the case, I'm going to be waiting forever for the impossible.
Fate: It's not impossible. I'll be growing in height and magic after this as well.
Signum: Just growing taller doesn't mean you'll be getting stronger (bad translation).
Fate: Just watch me.
Signum: Well, I won't be standing around waiting for you. So try your best in matching/reaching/beating me.
Fate: Yes. I intend to outstrip/surpass you as soon as possible.
Signum: How brazen/impertinent.
Alex: Wow, Signum-san is in a really good mood.
Shamal: Do you know? Signum is really fond Testarossa-chan.
Alph: Fate also likes Signum too. Though in a different way from Nanoha.
Randy: They're a great combination/partners/pair. (nuance is great pair of friends).

11 - Lindy to Leti, Kataru
11 - Lindy and Leti talk/converse

Leti: Well, then. Cheers!
All: Cheers!
Leti: It’s delicious. Is this, this world’s alcohol?
Alisa: It’s something that my father bought, it’s called wine.
Suzuka: It’s an alcoholic drink made from a fruit called grapes.
Leti: I see, it has such a wonderful scent.
Lindy: But you know Alisa-san, Suzuka-san, you two didn’t seem all that surprised hearing about magic or alternate dimensional worlds.
Alisa: Um, how do I say this? We were surprised…
Suzuka: But its Nanoha-chan and Fate-chan, so we understood/got over it quite quickly.
Leti: I don’t get to interact with Nanoha-chan but is she usually such an outstanding/amazing person.
Alisa: Oh, not really.
Suzuka: But I think she’s a really strong person. In lots of ways.
Alisa: Fate too.
Leti: I see… ah, this is really great/delicious. Hey Alisa-chan, you don’t mind if we open up another bottle do you?
A+S: HUH?!
Suzuka: You’ve already drunk a bottle?
Leti: Oh, was that a bad thing?
Arisa: No but, are you okay?
Lindy: Oh, it’s all right you two. Leti is able to drink like a bottomless pit since University.
Alisa: I see, if that’s the case we have plenty more.
Suzuka: We’ll go and get some.
Leti: Oh thank you.
Alisa: Please wait for a bit.
Leti: Hm, bright and honest. They’re such good children.
Lindy: Fate and Nanoha-san are blessed with their friendship. So I’ve been thinking about living here. It’s a bit backwards and inconvenient, but it’s a beautiful place.
Leti: Hm, a world with such delicious alcohol can’t be a bad place in my books.
Lindy: Hey, listen to me; we’re having a serious discussion here.
Leti: I am listening. This year you applied to step down as the 12th patrol Captain/commander and plan to work from here.
Lindy: Oh, I see you’ve already heard.
Leti: I knew it, for Fate-chan’s sake?
Lindy: Well yes. Fate says she wants to become a Bureau member but until she graduates from middle school/junior high school I think living here is for the best. It might be a little late but I would like to stay with her.
Leti: You said that for Chrono-kun too. Though, Chrono-kun was spending more time at Admiral Graham’s place so it was a bit iffy.
Lindy: Oh children are just like that. They never turn out the way parents think they will.
Leti: You’re right, my son/child is the same.

Alisa: Sorry to keep you waiting.
Suzuka: Red, white and rose. We brought lots.
Leti: Oh thank you, Alisa-chan, Suzuka-chan.
Lindy: Oh I think I’ll have some too.
Suzuka: Please go ahead.
Alisa: Oh, Shiro-san and my father would like to meet with you, is that okay with you?
Lindy: Oh really?
Leti: Oh my, I wonder if I’m fine. My face isn’t too red is it?
Suzuka: I think my mother will be meeting up later with you.
Leti: Thank you Suzuka-san. I would love to talk to her; she can come on over any time.
Lindy: Or we could go to them and talk.
Alisa: Oh, well we’ll go and ask then.
Leti: Oh sorry for making you do this.
Alisa: It’s all right! Let’s go Suzuka.
Suzuka: Okay.



12 - Alisa & Suzuka no Eunos-kan
12 - Alisa and Suzuka's view on Yuuno's appearance. (kan is appearance, sight, outlook... I guess it means how they regard Yuuno's appearance as a human and a ferret).

Alisa: Okay then, papa. Try not to make merry too much. Well then, next is...
Suzuka: Alisa-chan, Nanoha-chan and Yuuno-kun are over there.
Alisa: Oh you're right.
Nanoha: It's so lively that I'm not sure where we should go.
Yuuno: Really? I like this sort of atmosphere. The Scrya family tent was always this busy/lively.
Nanoha: I see. I want to see Yuuno-kun's homeland one day.
Yuuno: I think I can show you around one day.
Nanoha: Yes, I really want to go!
Yuuno: Then one day, for sure.
Alisa: I thought that Arf and Yuuno was a rather different breed of dog and ferret. I couldn't believe that they were involved in magic.
Suzuka: It was so surprising.
Alisa: Well compared to Nanoha's and Fate's magic, talking and transforming into human form, it's not as surprising/amazing.
Suzuka: Wait a sec... I feel that something's off. Arf-san's true form is a dog, but wasn't Yuuno-kun's true form is human.
Alisa: Huh? Really?
Suzuka: It's rather confusing.
Alisa: Well, it's not as if it's a big difference between the two. When they're human, they're human. When they're animals, they're animals is how I see it.
Suzuka: Arf-san praised Alisa-chan's petting techniques as really great.
Alisa: Heh heh he!
Suzuka: I wonder if Yuuno-kun will turn back to ferret mode for us. I really like petting him.
Alisa: Yeah... I know.


13 - Chrono ni Tsuite
13 - Concerning Chrono

Chrono: Okay. A five man portion of yakisoba is finished.
Miyuki: Oh, thanks Chrono-kun. Sorry for making you help out.
Chrono: No problem, it’s all Amy’s fault anyways. She shouldn’t have wandered off like that.
Miyuki: But I’m really surprised, you’re good at anything you do.
Chrono: It’s because I did survival training in officer school.
Miyuki: Wow, that’s impressive… Officer school is it? Does that mean Nanoha will be doing the same thing?
Chrono: Nanoha’s aiming for the Enforcer course, so the training is a little different from my own I think but I’m sure she’ll be doing something similar.
Miyuki: Really? I still can’t come to grips with it, I still see Nanoha as a little kid.
Chrono: For me, from the moment I first met her, I saw her as a skilful mage. Even though we’re talking about the same person, we have quite the difference in opinions.
Miyuki: Tell me about it.
Nanoha: Oh? Onee-chan, Chrono-kun? Why are you guys making yakisoba?
Yuuno: Hello?
Chrono: Oh, they’ve found us…
Miyuki: Well someone brought along this teppanyaki set (a sort barbeque set, a flat piece of metal that’s heated and has things cooked on top of it.) and we had some ingredients, so Amy thought it would be great to use it and started to cook but…
Chrono: But all Amy really did was take some orders and wandered off somewhere. So this is the end result.
Nanoha: But it looks really delicious.
Miyuki: It is really delicious. If you wait a bit, you can eat some too.
Chrono: That reminds me Yuuno, you’re not in ferret mode today.
Yuuno: Oh yeah, it’s been a year now, so most of my magic reserves have gone back to normal. So now I can stay in this form without any problems.
Chrono: Ohh…
Miyuki: What? Yuuno, does that mean you’ll never turn back into a ferret anymore?
Yuuno: Huh… um… Well…
Miyuki: You all of sudden disappeared this year so I was really lonely. I couldn’t forget how cute/great it was to pet you.
Nanoha: Onee-chan, don’t say something so irresponsible/impossible. The ferret mode is just a temporary form.
Miyuki: Okay, but Yuuno. If you ever turn back into a ferret, come on over to me. Please let me pet you.
Yuuno: I… I’ll keep that in mind…
Chrono: Okay, a six man portion is finished!
Amy: Oh, sorry to keep you waiting.
Miyuki: Amy, welcome back.
Chrono: You’re late!! What were you doing?!
Miyuki: A communication officer say hi to lots of people. Anyways, I’ll take over now.
Chrono: Okay then, Miyuki-san please take a break.
Miyuki: Really? Sorry about this.
Amy: No problem Miyuki-chan.
Miyuki: Well then, I think I’ll go see how everyone is doing and pick something up to eat. I’ll be right back.
Amy: Okay, Chrono-kun, I brought some more ingredients. It’s been awhile, so let’s make ‘that’.
Chrono: Huh? Oh you mean ‘that’ yakisoba.
Nanoha: That?
Yuuno: Is it some sort of secret recipe?
Amy: Oh, it’s just something we had on our menu that we made a lot on our own in officer school. It was pretty popular so I thought we should make some for the folks here.
Chrono: Once we’re done, we’ll call you over. So please try some.
Nanoha: Sure!

Nanoha: Hey Yuuno-kun? Have you noticed?
Yuuno: Um?
Nanoha: Chrono-kun’s been getting a lot nicer/gentler lately.
Yuuno: Oh, now that you mention it. He’s been getting less stiff/formal with me since last year’s winter.
Nanoha: Have I told you before? That Chrono-kun used to be someone who didn’t smile very often until he met Amy-san. After that he started smiling more.
Yuuno: I heard a bit about it.
Nanoha: Now he’s smiling even more since Fate-chan has become his little sister… I guess.
Yuuno: Yeah, maybe.


14 - Chrono to Amy
14 - Chrono and Amy

Amy: Then, add in the spices... Oh sorry Chrono-kun, did the spice get in your throat?
Chrono: Oh, no. Lately my throat has been a bit...
Amy: That reminds me, it's almost time for your voice to change.
Chrono: Oh yeah.
Amy: You've also gotten a little bit taller too. You're 15 years old now.
Chrono: Well yeah...
Amy: Anyways, hurry up and get taller than me okay?
Chrono: I intend/plan to.
Amy: Do your best to grow up. If you grow up real nice I'll treat/talk to you as if you're husband/master.
Chrono: Don't dump something so serious/weighty and be done with it like that (bad translation). Use your two feet and find someone.
Amy: Chrono-kun you're not cute at all.
Chrono: I've never been cute. And I don't intend to become cute in the future.
Amy: Well, that part of you is also sort of cute.
Chrono: It's just your imagination (bad translation)
Amy: Alright then, I'm going to put the oil into the fire now.
Chrono: Wha... Wait, don't you think that it's a bit too early!
Amy: I'm going to put it all in at once. Here we go! FIRE!
Chrono: AHHH!!!


15 - Nanoha to Vita
15 - Nanoha and Vita:

Vita: Oh, Nanoha.
Nanoha: Vita-chan.
Vita: You with her, Yuuno?
Yuuno: Yeah.
Nanoha: We haven't seen each other lately. Vita-chan are you doing your work all right?
Vita: What the hell is that supposed mean? Of course I'm doing my work. I'm working in a different job/arrangement than you, so I won't be working with you often. But I often get treated affectionately ... I mean, I'm valued by everyone.
Yuuno: Oh, so everyone's affectionate to you.
Vita: Stop butting/commenting in on other people's slip of tongue. Damn it.
Nanoha: I'm sure we'll be working together in the future sometime. So I'll be asking you to watch my back, Vita-chan.
Vita: Sure. As long as you don't hold me back/drag me down I'll look out for ya. I'm a Knight after all.
Nanoha: Yeah, I look forward to it.
Vita: Damn it, I didn't give you permission to pet me. The only people who can pet me is Hayate-chan, Dr. Ishida and a select few others.
Nanoha: Oh sorry, next time I'll definitely ask for your permission.
Vita: I won't! (I'll never give you permission!)


16 - Hayate to Ishida-ishi
16 - Hayate and Doctor Ishida

Hayate: When I look around it feels lonely but it looks like everyone’s (my family’s) laughing and having a great time.
Ishida: Hayate-chan! Sorry for being so late!
Hayate: Oh, Ishida-sensei welcome!
Ishida: Wow, there’s lots of people and the scenery is great (the location is great).
Hayate: Well, I had a lot of connections. But please doctor, sit. Sit and take your time.
Ishida: Oh sorry about this. I was just going to show my face and drop off some food for everyone.
Hayate: Oh don’t be so reserved (or Oh don’t say that), please eat and drink a bit.
Ishida: Really?
Vita: Oh, Dr. Ishida!
Hayate: Vita.
Ishida: Oh Vita-chan.
Vita: Hello, so you came.
Ishida: Yes, because Shamal-san invited me.
Hayate: Listen up Vita, Dr. Ishida says she’s going home right away. What do you think?
Vita: Wha-? Relax and stay a bit!
Ishida: Oh, well I guess I could…
Hayate: Signum, Shamal, Zafila… Dr. Ishida is here. Try to come and see her when you have time.
Signum: Yes.
Zafila: Understood.
Shamal: I’ll head right on over.
Hayate: I think my family (kids) will come on over in a bit.
Ishida: I see.
Hayate: Vita, why don’t you go and get something for Dr. Ishida to eat and drink.
Vita: Sure!
Ishida: Oh, you don’t have to go all out.
Vita: I’ll bring stuff that you’ll like. Just wait a bit, okay!
Ishida: Oh my…
Hayate: Dr. Ishida, it’s a little late now but… thank you for taking care of me during my medical treatment. I’m truly in your debt.
Ishida: Oh, why are you saying this all of a sudden?
Hayate: I don’t think I was a very good patient.
Ishida: Well a little; it wasn’t just the disease but also the person’s personality that we were kinda at a loss to deal with.
Hayate: Yes…
Ishida: But when you started suffering from loss of nerve sensitivity, you became our longest lasting patient ever. It’s a little hard to believe. (incorrect translation)
Hayate: Me too. The only adults who stayed with me through it all was Dr. Ishida and that old man (I think she means the male nurse).
Ishida: Yea but I’m really happy for you.
Hayate: Oh, you mean because I’m cured?
Ishida: Thanks to that and because Hayate-chan is now looking forward to the future.
Hayate: Um, er… Quite frankly, I believed I would never get better at the hospital. I guess I just gave up on it. I guess I was a terrible patient for you. Now that I get to think/remember it all over again.
Ishida: Oh you weren’t terrible. The sickness didn’t just hurt your body but your heart as well. I was sweating bullets thinking up ways to help cure/help that too. Now that I think about it from Hayate-chan’s point of view it must have been a burden. Ever since I’ve been reflecting/thinking on it.
Hayate: Um, I guess we can say that means the other was worried about the other. (bad translation)
Ishida: In other words, it’s all the disease’s fault. Let’s just leave it at that.
Hayate: Yes, let’s.
Vita: Sorry to keep you waiting.
Hayate: Oh Vita! You brought too much!
Ishida: Oh dear, it must have been hard.
Vita: Chrono and Amy gave me some yakisoba (lit: fried soba) to me. Oh and the other’s gave me more as I walked around.
Ishida: Oh, it looks so delicious.
Signum: My apologies for you keeping you waiting.
Shamal: Dr. Ishida, welcome.
Ishida: Signum-san, Shamal-san, hello. Sorry for bothering you. You too, Zafila-kun, hello.
Zafila: Bark!
Shamal: Oh my, you brought a lot of food.
Signum: You brought too much.
Vita: It’s okay, if there’s any leftover I’ll eat it.
Signum: Dr. Ishida, what would you like to drink?
Ishida: Hm that’s right; I guess I’ll have some ice tea.
Shamal: Oh, you can’t drink any alcohol?
Ishida: I can never drink it all, so I won’t have any.
Shamal: I see.
Signum: Here, have a cup.
Ishida: Ah, thank you.
Vita: Hayate! You want to eat some of this Hayate? It’s the administrator bureau special yakisoba.
Hayate: Wow, it looks great.
Signum: It truly smells wonderful.
Shamal: I think I’ll have some too.
Hayate: Dr. Ishida?
Ishida: Yes?
Hayate: It’s a different job from that of a doctor, but I think I’ll be doing a job similar to yours in the future. A job that holds back the bad and protects the good so that it can remain good for all. When I do, I’m sure I’ll be remembering how you pushing a stubborn patient like me to get better. (bad translation)
Ishida: But you can’t act as if you’re done treatment! You still have a year or two of treatment and rehabilitation to do.
Hayate: Er… I know that…
Shamal: Oh please Dr. Ishida. Drink, drink!
Vita: It’s only oolong tea though.
Ishida: Thank you very much.
Zafila: My master, were you able to say your piece?
Hayate: Well… most of it.
Zafila: That is good.
Leti: Oh there you are, there you are! Wolkenritter! Get… get over here for a sec!
Hayate: Er, Admiral Leti?
Ishida: Admiral?
Shamal: Ah, what’s wrong? Could it be that you need more alcohol?
Leti: Oh I have plenty of that but it’s all right! So come on over here.
Signum: Um, sorry but right we have a guest…
Leti: A guest?... Oh a guest! Please, please we have lotsa wine!
Vita: Admiral, you’re drunk. Your such a bothersome/troublesome adult.
Leti: Vita, you’re such a rude child.
Lindy: A hahaha, sorry to bother you about this.
Fate: Sorry about this.
Leti: Oh why is Lindy and Fate-chan treating me as if I’m drunk? You’re terrible.
Lindy: Oh that’s enough from you.
Leti: No! Don’t wanna!
Fate: Please Admiral, let’s go back. Everyone is waiting for you.
Leti: Really?
Lindy: Really! So let’s leave them alone for now, okay? So let’s go now.
Leti: Oh I guess so. But I still have so much lecturing/punishing to do on those kids. So see you later!
Lindy: Oh please, get moving! Now now!
Ishida: Wolkenritter?
Shamal: Ahahah, that’s just some drunk talk.
Hayate: Er, please Dr. Ishida have a drink!
Ishida: Um…


17 - Fate no Kotae
17 - Fate’s answer

Fate: Ah, everything’s calm at last.
Alph: Aren’t you glad? (or Thank god, eh?)
Chrono: Oh, so you’re done over there.
Lindy: Oh, Leti was such a pain to deal with.
Chrono: Where is Admiral Leti right now?
Lindy: Alex and the others are taking care of her. It’ll be a good experience for the two of them.
Alph: Did everyone have time to eat dinner? I managed to eat to my heart content’s.
Lindy: Oh, a little here and there.
Fate: A little…
Chrono: I ate a little while making yakisoba.
Amy: Ah, it’s finally all over.
Alph: Ah, Amy. You finish making yakisoba?
Amy: We ran out of ingredients. After serving Nanoha’s share, everything ended without a hitch.
Fate: Thanks for your hard work Amy.
Chrono: It looks like everyone’s settling down. Now we can look at the flowers at our hearts content.
Fate: But it seems like some people are starting to fall asleep.
Amy: It’s seem to be mostly the people who are banned from knowing magic though (incorrect translation, taking a guess here)
Lindy: Well, let’s just take the time to watch the flowers together as a family.
Chrono: Yeah.
Alph: If that’s the case, I should change/transform into something more comfortable. Transformation: Puppy-mode! Ah, this feels the best.
Lindy: It’s so quiet.
Chrono: It calms the soul.
Amy: Though it kinda makes you sleepy.
Fate: It’s all right if you want to go take nap.
Amy: Nah, it’ll be a waste if I do.
Alph: Ya lazy bum. (Literally: Someone who likes to sun oneself, if I heard it right.)
Amy: Hey, I don’t want to hear that from Arf of all people.
Fate: Admiral Lindy, Chrono, Amy… could you listen to me for a bit?
Chrono: Any time.
Amy: Go ahead.
Fate: I’ve already talked about this with Alph, last year during Christmas. During the YnS incident… while I was trapped inside the YnS I saw a dream. I dreamed of my family. Linith was there. Precia okaa-san was there. Alicia too. The Precia okaa-san in my dream was so very gentle with me. And Linith was exactly as I remembered her. Alicia was so cute. Hayate told me, that the dream shown by the YnS are the most gentle, happiest dream taken from the person’s heart. But, in the end, I didn’t choose that dream world but this world. I wanted to come back here. Is it all right if… I can stay here?
Lindy: I want you stay here.
Chrono: If you disappeared, I would be worried.
Amy: You should stay as long as you want.
Fate: Thank you very much… In that dream, I managed to say good bye to Alicia. There I was finally able to say thank you and sorry to her (properly). It might have been just a dream, but Alicia asked me to treat her/call her like a little sister (imouto) and saw me off while saying ‘ittarashai’ (have a safe journey). So at last, now I can live, not as a flawed copy of Alicia Testarossa but as Fate Testarossa. As Fate Testarossa, born into this life as a human being, I would like to finally answer your words (request) at last.
Lindy: Are you saying you are going to become a part of our family.
Fate: Yes… I would like to become… a child of this family.
Lindy: Yes, I’m glad.
Amy: Wow, I’m not sure if I should have been here for this but… I’m really glad. I’m really glad.
Fate: I didn’t want Amy not to be here.
Chrono: In reality, you’re almost like Fate-chan’s older sister.
Amy: A hahaha… I’m happy you can see me as such.
Alph: Now that’s out of the way, if Fate is a part of this family now, it means I’m a part of the Harlaown family too.
Lindy: That’s right.
Chrono: Looking forward to it.
Alph: Yeah!
Fate: On behalf of Alph and I, please help/treat us well. Okaa-san (mother), onii-chan (older brother).
Chrono: Yeah.
Fate: And… Onee-chan?
Amy: A hahaha… Oh that makes me feel so shy/awkward. In any case, I won’t be showing up in your life so much now. So just try to call me what you call me.
Fate: Oh, really?
Chrono: Me too, you can just call me Chrono.
Fate: Okay then, I’ll just call you onii-chan only some times.
Chrono: Some… times, eh?
Alph: You know you guys should go to your father’s grave for a special visit to tell him the good news.
Chrono: Yeah. As expected from our family familiar. You’ve got the right idea.
Alph: Don’t I?
Lindy: Yes. Today is such a wonderful day.



18 - Nanoha to Signum
18 - Nanoha and Signum

Signum: Hah…
Nanoha: Oh, Signum-san?
Signum: Ah, Takamachi Nanoha, it’s you.
Nanoha: Yup.
Signum: Where’s that partner of yours gone off to?
Nanoha: She’s with Shamal-san. They’re talking about work a bit. Are you by yourself Signum-san?
Signum: I had been made to drink a bit by Admiral Leti… I left her to get some air.
Nanoha: I see.
Signum: Hah…
Nanoha: To me, it looked like Signum-san would be a strong drinker.
Signum: I don’t really know. I’ve never really had the opportunity to drink before. Besides I still have to repent/pay for my crimes, I shouldn’t act so uninhibitedly/wildly/extravagantly (or tis not appropriate for me to be so carefree). Except when I am before my master, I plan to spend my time repenting.
Nanoha: Hm… I’ve been asking about and researching the case reports. On the mages that you attacked while you were collecting the pages and details surrounding that… The paper stated that you would first completely rob the mages of their mobility and consciousness to gather their linker cores. Your motive wasn’t to inflict bodily injury/injure anyone was it?
Signum: Yeah.
Nanoha: When you removed my and Fate-chan’s linker core, if you felt like it you could have easily damaged/hurt us enough to keep us from coming back and interfering with you, but you didn’t.
Signum: We more or less calculated/planned it out this way. We would complete the YnS and save our master, we weren’t planning to end it there. The chances were slim but… we were hoping for the best that we could survive the end and find a way to all live together with Master Hayate and the Master program AI (complete incarnation). After that, we would give ourselves up to the Bureau peacefully and explain the situation to them. (bad translation)
Nanoha: I think that choosing the path that avoided bloodshed was the most righteous thing to do.
Signum: Ah…
Nanoha: Sorry, I said something really conceited/arrogant.
Signum: No, you’re not.
Nanoha: Um, anyways… A crime is a crime but you’ve already chosen your path of repentance. Rather than regretting or constantly questioning what has been done, I would be really happy if you would use that energy towards saving people. Did I manage to persuade you as one of the people who got attacked by you?
Signum: Yes, your point was a little excessive but you’re a really good child. I can understand why Testarossa and the others stay by your side.
Nanoha: Thank you very much.
Signum: And now, I’m a member of the Time Space Bureau. You sound exactly like them.
Nanoha: Oh, that’s not what I…
Signum: When you become an Armed Forces Officer, I might become of some use to you (alt: I might be used by you) in the future. So when that happens please take care of me, Takamachi Nanoha.
Nanoha: Um… er that’s not what I was trying to say! I’m aiming to become an instructor; I’m just taking/becoming an executive officer as a part of my career and personal experience only. I’m not planning on using you like a doll. Besides its Fate-chan and Hayate-chan are aiming to become executive officers. I’m either going to be unconventional individual combat or stationary/fixed artillery/bombardment/battery… (Note: yeah… you do have quite the flare for that… also inexact translation, kotei houdai?)
Signum: I understand. You can do both so it’s honestly quite amazing.
Nanoha: Er, I’m only good at combat magic.

Alisa: You know… Nanoha’s really matured/grown up.
Suzuka: Yeah.
Alisa: But…

Signum: That reminds me, I haven’t fought with you yet. You want to try one day?
Nanoha: Um, er, if it’s possible I would like to respectfully avoid that.
Signum: Really? How boring.

Alisa: She’s different from before, like she’s going to go off somewhere but I feel she’ll be fine.
Suzuka: Yeah.
Alisa: Nanoha will definitely remain just as she is.
Suzuka: Yes, so do I.

Leti: Oh children, so this is where you were?
Suzuka: Letti-san?
Leti: Signum!!!
Signum: Huh, yes!
Leti: Oh that’s where you’ve been hiding! Well get over here for a sec.
Signum: Um, I have no problems with that Admiral but I think you’ve had a bit too much to drink…
Leti: I haven’t drank that much. I’m completely normal/fine.
Alisa: Ahahah Even a grade four elementary school student could tell…
Suzuka: that you’ve had too much to drink.
Leti: Oh it’s all right. Lots of good things happened today, and I don’t have work tomorrow.
Signum: I have work tomorrow.
Nanoha: So do I.
Suzuka: What do you mean by ‘good things’
Leti: Heh heh. Just come on over here for a sec.
Alisa: Oh no, Suzuka…
Signum: Admir-!... Er, as expected she…
Nanoha: Admiral Leti…


19 - Utage ga Owatte
19 - The party is over/ends

Ami: Well then, everyone. I think it’s time to wrap things up.
Miyuki: It’s starting to get dark (the sun is starting to set) and the number of people on their way to dreamland is getting bigger.
Ami: So I think I would like end the party now.
Miyuki: Okay everyone, please go do your clean up or garbage duties that was decided by the lottery we had.
Fate: Nanoha.
Nanoha: Fate-chan, thanks for your hard work.
Fate: Thanks for your hard work. Are you in charge of throwing out the garbage as well?
Nanoha: Yeah, you want to go together? So… you were able to talk/say it.
Fate: Yeah, thanks to you.
Nanoha: How was it?
Fate: Um, well it’s still a bit…

Hayate: It looks like everything around here has been all cleaned up.
Signum: Yes.
Vita: Yup, that’s all of it.
Hayate; Okay then, let’s help out elsewhere.
Shamal: Yes.
Zafila: Let us go.

STBM: Oh, Hayate-chan!
Hayate: Yes?
STBM: Mari from the maintenance staff just called. It looks like they managed to make two new devices that can handle you, so they want you to try them out.
Hayate: Okay, thanks for telling me.
Zafila: Allow me to handle your workload then.
STBM: See you later!
Hayate: Thanks. I should bring a present for Mari and the rest of the maintenance staff.
Signum: Yes, since we are being aided by them greatly.
Shamal: Finding/creating a device that matches Hayate-chan has been really hard. Hopefully this time things will be all right.
Signum: It seems like striking a balance between strength/power and control is very difficult.
Vita: All together the number that’s gotten blown up or broke is… um, is about six?
Hayate: About that many. Hm, I’m so clumsy, it’s terrible.
Vita: It can’t be helped! There aren’t any prominent magic knights who wield both Mid and Belka magic that can match your huge power.
Zafila: It was inevitable there be failures/setbacks.
Hayate: Yeah, but to be frank I felt that I should make it myself from the start. I’m thinking of getting help from Yuuno-kun and Mari-san to start designing but it’s really difficult.
Shamal: So you’re thinking about a unison device after all?
Hayate: Mid’s AI’s are so unaffectionate, and I want the storage to be in the shape of a book. When I think about it, a master program (complete incarnation) doesn’t sound too bad. A child who inherits Reinforce’s name should be harmonizing/unifying. Someone/something I have to make with my own hands.
Vita: Yeah.
Signum: We wait with joy at the arrival of a new companion who shall protect you with us.
Shamal: Until then, we’ll just have to make do with the standard issue devices.
Hayate: I’ll do my best.
Viita: If Hayate’s going to make her, I’d like her to be a lot younger looking than me. Hey Hayate, will you make like that?
Hayate: Oh, I’m not sure still. I haven’t given any thought to what she’ll look like yet.
Shamal: Well when she’s finally created/completed, there’ll be no doubt that she’ll be the youngest member of our family.


20 - Sorezore no Katei de
20 - At their homes

Lindy: Well then, I'll be going back to work now. I'll come home tomorrow.
Chrono: As soon as your done practice, remember to lock the doors.
Fate: Yes. Bye Chrono, Mom. Have a safe journey.
Nanoha: I'm going to my night practice now.
Miyuki: Okay, stay safe.
Hayate: I'm going out now.
Vita: Practice again today?
Hayate: With Nanoha-chan and Fate.
Zafila: Please be careful.
Signum: Have a safe journey.
Shamal: Shall I take/escort you there.
Hayate: I'm fine, you all have work early tomorrow morning. To make sure you wake up early enough to eat breakfast, go to bed early all right.
Signum: Yes.
Vita: Have a good practice Hayate.
