Overall, StrikerS gave me all the feelings of an ambitious project that turned out to be beyond their abilities. When they belatedly realized this, their clumsily attempts to correct it only made it worse. |

According to Nanoha tradition, they have only 3 episodes to end all this chaos nicely, since the last episode has always been the wrap-up/epilogue episode.
Let's see how they'll achieve this, without doing a Fukuda. Quote:

team lightning... feels as if it belong in another story. In fact, in Caro's case, I have the impression that she was just created to give Lutecia a rival.
I see two distinctive elements about StrikerS that was probably not intended to go along with each other? I have the impression that season 3 was supposed to introduce caro and erio, while the primary villains being Lutecia, Zest and agito season 4 was supposed to be about Subaru, Ginga and Teana, while Scag and the numbers being the primary villains somehow.. I think they merged the concepts together.. |

Things could have been better, I agree, but if I really can't stand it, I would have quit it like Hayate no Gotoku (which had gotten on my nerves) long ago instead of allowing it to continue torturing me. Either I'm too big a fan to give up, or things haven't gotten to the point of no return to make me reconsider the risk I'm subjecting to my wallet by downloading the flsnow subs (you folks should know that farce happening lately in my lovely little Singapore). Now, let's get back to the actual discussion ... I prefer "mis-used" or "not used to her full potential". Vivio could have been MORE than just moe stock.

She could be more meaningful had they really tried to explore the lines of the Doctor's recreation of life ethics alongside the background history of the Saint Church, and all, but at this point, it really feels... out there. It's like the Star Wars movies trying to link itself to the Expanded Universe when it's really just about Luke and Vader. As for the pacing, I'll say that they REALLY took their sweet time with the 'happy time' episodes in the first half, especially when half character bonding scenes were there just for the sake of being there, and it's not like they had a lot of development. I mean, when the last 3 'non-battle' episodes dedicated a bulk of it to talking history of Sentoukijin, Seioh, and stuff in a badly directed manner, it shows.

The Hayate/Auris talk about Regius's skeletons. Really, all it needed was a several minutes implication in a Regius/Auris scene or something, but look at how much time was dedicated to it. Especially after the brains said it AGAIN that Regius was an important pawn to them. From his scene with the Council, Zest and himself being angry, we already know Regius was shady and he was only a pawn. Did we need Hayate to ACTUALLY go over his history? And it's not like Hayate got any character development we didn't know already of her in that situation. The Nanoha-Fate fanservice. I don't mind fanservice, but couldn't they had made it Nanoha-Fate-Hayate fanservice instead and randomly throw in different pairs of 2 like Nanoha-Hayate and Fate-Hayate depending on the situation? We've known LONG since A's how the NF dynamics work, couldn't they try to at least introduce a fresher dimension to it in a more substansial manner? Otherwise, NFanservice only repeated the same old fanservice over and over. Vice's step-by-step character development, in my opinion... had little meaning. It's so...standalone, it's relevance to the other characters, much less the plot didn't deserve the time it was spent on. It's not like he was a major character, even. At times, it really felt like they introduced element A in one part, spent few minutes on element A development for another, a few minutes to repeat the same thing for element A in another, and close it abruptly, when it could just be done in 2 parts.

When the viewer reaches the commercial break after ten minutes, he's going to subconsciously review what he had learnt by counting up the different scenes. And it'd feel like he's been through a 20-minute episode until he looks at the clock. Something has been cut obviously but it'd is hard to say what extra stuff could have been covered if the Episode was 20 minutes long. He'd be very satisfied with the parts that he liked because the important parts were covered, while the annoying parts (Vivio) become less annoying because it is shorter chronologically. Everyone wins, just like JPEG compression in the time axis. |

I still don't care what everyone else says. I'm whole heartedly in love with Vivi-chan and won't set back excepting the death wishes people have forced on her! Even if she does die (and she WON'T) I will keep her memory alive as long as humanly possible! I will not let her name be written off as just some "moe stock" or "plot device" because I know there is more to her then that!
