Thanks for that (hey, Giuseppina's in it! ), but it looks a bit edited to me. There aren't that many yuri relationships in Strike Witches. (Leaving aside the issue of the TV and manga characters, Ursula, Katharine and Elma are straight, and Tomoko wouldn't touch Ahonen with a ten-foot pole.)

Yeah, that's a heavily modified version of the one in the Strikes artbook. Someone uploaded a real pic of that chart a while back.

On a side-note, the whole leg-actually-in-alternate-dimension thing is apparently still canon (DVD 1 booklet). There were 3 pages or so on Striker development and operation .

Huh? Translated? It's a relationships flowchart with the english names.

Selkirk: Alternate Dimension? Mind shedding some light on that?

So... what exactly on this chart is altered? Just the relationships? Or the characters as well?

That's good to have some confirmation on. Speaking of booklets, are there any scans online?

Strikers are filled with all sorts of technological gizmos, which don't leave much room for legs. So when the girls jump in their Strikers, their legs get send to alternate dimensions.

Whee *falls into the thread and glomps selkirk*
According to selkirk himself, the DVD booklet is over (9000)100 pages, so that won't be scanned anytime soon. Unless, he or someone else has the patience and is willing to sacrifice the booklet to properly scan it. :P

- I really don't know why I don't chill in this thread. D:

[Keroko]

*Falls sideways in surprise* 100 pages!?

Wow... yes, that does explain why there aren't any scans online.

Strike Witches snatches the crown from Nanoha for the amount of info in booklets...........

They added twp characters from the novels (Giuseppina and Mika Ahonen), and also modified the relationships. Especially the latter. All the orange arrows are added on.

And considering there are plans to make an artbox to hold all the booklets... Yeah, maybe one of these things every DVD. Though the price of the LEs is still kinda orz-worthy (Only LEs get the booklet/artbook).

Okay see at some point something stops being a "Booklet" and that point is WELL before 100 pages. "That's no booklet!"

D: Now I really can't say no to buying the dvd!

Will this show ever get licensed in N.A.?

Three years ago, people would have said no. I think it's possible today, though. Especially when you consider it's runaway success in the Japan markets, and the fact that it's already built up popularity here via BOST and CrunchyRoll broadcast.

Media Blaster has started a sub-only yuri line, that's been quite successful for them...I think they're one their fourth or fifth show, more niche shows that wouldn't normally be considering top licenses. Funimation has Nanoha and Moonphase, which are just as otaku-oriented and loli as Strike Witches is.

I'm not saying it's a sure thing, but it sure is possible...I hope it gets licensed myself, heh. Either Bandai or Media Blasters or Nozomi Ent. would all do a great job on it.

[Keroko]

Actually, Strike Witches has been licensed quite some time ago. I'm just hoping they take the time and effort to translate the encyclopedia (Tk's right, that's no booklet, that's an encyclopedia!) as well.

Well, we meant licensing for R1 DVD distribution, not just online download distribution.
