And looking back through ViVid, it seems like Erio's graduated to full-on flight, Caro has picked up at least levitation and Tea appears to be standing on some kind of floating platform she conjured. It's nice to see that everyone's grown over the years.

Ah yes, thank you, this is what I want to confirm actually. Since it's not animated, I sometimes have trouble recognizing whether someone is flying or just high jumping and whether they're standing on a magical platform or the instant runes are part of their firing spells

I suppose some improvisation is in order then.
Next query (though the previous one's still open): Is it explicitly stated what real-world martial arts, if any, the various Nanoha fighting styles are based on?

They're mostly based on mecha fighting styles.

The only thing I see in either ViVid or the Nanoha wiki is that Strike Arts is... and this is a quote, seriously, 'An open-handed magical fighting style that relies on strikes'.
No. Really. Strike Arts rely on strikes? I'd never have guessed. But Kaiser Arts don't even get that much description, so hey. EDIT: Though actually, just judging from the images of Vivio fighting in Strike Arts class, it looks almost like kickboxing, doesn't it? |

I thought I have provided enough references in that article, but I guess that wasn't the case. You can read a translation of SS02 on this very forum if you wish to double-check the facts. Lastly, I dislike the implication that the Nanoha wiki is full of gross wishthinking. Because AFAIK the speculation contained in it is very limited in size.

So does anyone know what song Nanoha's ringtone in the first season is?
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oZy297XcJho (or is it just something they composed just for this show?)

Does Nanoha have a sword or not? [trying to look for pictures of her having a sword in Chevalier mode]. I don't know if this one is reliable or not...
