See episode 1. In episode 12, it's stated that Vivio can survive a direct blast from Dieci's cannon. |

Sigh... You're as low as Jail.

That way, she was at Vita's level during most of the series, and at Reinforce's level when needed. A dangerous tool is not one that will surely harm you, but one that isn't to be used unless you have no choice and are ready to take the risk. This was explained by Signum in StrikerS ep 9. |

A 3-dimensional maze is more complex than a 2-dimensional one. There would be alot more possibilities to the right answer. Going straight isn't the absolute answer. See Logic. Quote:
You have a habit of not looking from characters' point of view, haven't you.... With this, and back with Vivio strapped onto the table.

Well, sorry for that. For your information, I LOVE seeing main characters going through an emotional and physical mind-fuckish hell before obtaining their happy ending.
I thrive in happiness obtained from suffering. For now, Nanoha's suffer-level hasn't filled my quota, though Vivio had contributed a lot. Much less needs to be said about some other characters, but since Nanoha is the title character and the one linked to "so-called strains", and a deeper emotional bond to the plot-device that ties StrikerS just like how S1 was Fate/Alicia/Precia and A's was Hayate/Reinforce, I want to be hopeful.

I'm completely the opposite: I really like it when nothing bad is happening. That's why Card Captor Sakura is the anime series I like the most. The MGLN staff knows that, and created different episodes to fit our different needs |

Of course, that only works if they know exactly which room she's in, so they can avoid blowing it up. Otherwise, can't blow away multiple walls with one shot, too risky. |

problem with this series is that it can hardly be called "mahou shoujo" while it was for S2 and S2 ~ i would just like it better if the producers realised that the girls have grown up enough to face some real disasters...so fars its going good but im not sure if they are willing to push it that much further...

Anybody can make an interesting anime by making characters suffer.
But making a good anime where nothing bad happens, requires real talent. Quote:
Quote:
In a war anime, when the Good Side wins, all's fine, even if dozens of characters were killed in the process. If possible, the hero (if any) should be alive, but that's all. But Riot Force 6 just doesn't feel like a military division. It's more like a family. So if anyone is dead, there can't be a happy ending. Everything's fine inbetween (characters too hurt to have an active part anymore, Fate being tortured by her own mother, Reinforce slowly killing Hayate from the inside and hating herself for it, Ginga brainwashed, Vivio in a not-so-comfortable position and Nanoha forced to watch, etc.), but you have to have a true happy end, with every Good Guy and every redeemable Bad Guy alive, happy and friendly. |

appearly jail is so evil that it looks like he made, the creators of the strikers website forget to renew their domain name, it was working yeasterday but for at least the next 12 hours,it now leads to something totally differnet, but yes, it still is www.nanoha.com, i would like to get your opion on what in the hell is going on, but this is really dissapointing news to hear though, i hope at least someone copied all the numbers information in graphic form!!!!
p.s from looking from the prewiew and with the next fgew epsiodes allready named, it looks like the main battle is going to start alot eailer than people though, and will start to speed up dramatically right now!!!!! |

Yeah, but the way it ended up, it made a real joke out of the whole proposition of danger, which is then crudely integrated in StrikerS Ep9. I'm not saying Nanoha has to puke blood in a forest like Zest, but at least do something that makes it clear it was close - a couple of cracks on Raising Heart, maybe Nanoha fainting like Hayate, even a brief spell of nausea would do.

True happy end isn't my thing I'm afraid. And it's quite unrealistic either. I don't ask for something like the endings of Saikano or Texhnolyze, just a bittersweet one would suffice. |

Well, if she wasn't exceptional, there would be no point in making an anime centered on her.
(In fact, the most incredible thing about her is that she has a normal family: a father and a mother, and two siblings, all alive, healty, and who love her.) Quote:
The target audience for StrikerS is the people who liked A's. So, it's pretty normal to make an anime with roughly the same structure as A's, only twice as long. 1st phase: introducing the characters; everyday life, with a few little fights. 8.5 episodes in A's, 15 episodes in StrikerS. 2nd phase: now for a serious problem. 3 episodes in A's (middle of ep 8 -> middle of ep 11), at least 4 episodes (and probably more -- maybe two more or so) in StrikerS. 3rd phase: It's time to stop weeping and to kick ass instead. 1.5 episodes in A's (the second half of ep 11, and ep 12); length unknown in StrikerS (something like 3 or 4 episodes, probably). 4rd phase: epilogue, tying up loose ends. 1 episode in A's; 1 or 2 episodes in StrikerS I suppose. |

The real plot is "Nanoha gets new friends". Quote:
Besides, the explanation that a creator of life is reluctant to destroy life, seems reasonable to me. Quote:
Yes, I know, MGLN is just an anime. But an anime where the viewer is meant to care for the characters. Quote:
The "military" thing has never been taken seriously in MGLN. Just look at Lindy in season 1. (Chrono is trying to create a "military mood", but he fails against Lindy and Amy. I can imagine his suffering when Lindy waves her handerchief at him in ep 8, or when Amy tells Nanoha to comes and play on the military ship in ep 13 ) I'm afraid MGLN isn't your thing. And I suppose you think magic is realistic? There's a hell of a lot of animes where that happens. I like MGLN because it's different from the crowd. |

MGLN is an anime where heroes are supposed to face quite serious threats. When nobody ends up dead or at least hurt noticably it just doesn't contribute to the mood. For example I don't consider Jail&Co as dangerous as I could if they acted a bit different. I'd like their characters much more in such case. I care for the characters but in a different way it seems. I don't think about them as some fragile cute dolls I should adore and protect from any troubles. Quote:
Military not taken serious makes TSAB look incompetent and absolutely incapable of the achievements they claim to have reached. Not a good thing imho. Quote:

I noticed that (I even wonder why you watch the series).
I was just trying to explain how the three seasons of MGLN work. Quote:
Besides, one can try to avoid needlessly killing, and still do what needs to be done to achieve his goals. Quote:

Do you really think there's a big difference between the first two seasons and the third? |

For now, just go to http://202.133.123.135/. (Just in case someone is interested, here's how I got the address: First, I went to the Nanoha page on animenfo. I clicked on "Studio: ivory", which brought me to http://www.ivory.co.jp/. With a "nslookup -ty=NS ivory.co.jp", I got Ivory's nameserver: ns4.cpi.ad.jp. Then I asked that server what the right address for www.nanoha.com was: "nslookup www.nanoha.com ns4.cpi.ad.jp".) |
