As long as we're discussing eyesight, why didn't Jail ever get Cinque's right eye replaced? I mean it's not like he was ever wanting for cybernetic parts, so why didn't he give her a new implant?

It's possible that Cinque specifically requested that her eye not be regenerated / replaced. It's a battle scar, a badge of honor in of itself for Cinque's victory over an S-ranked Knight. It could be out of respect for Zest, or some sort of personal pride. To regenerate or replace that eye would be to water down that victory, even if it leaves a permanent deformity.

Is it ever mentioned what exactly Jail was doing with the Relics? I know he needed Vivio's relic to activate the Cradle and he was telling Lutecia he needed a specific Relic to rez her mom (come to think of it, was he just telling her that to get her to look for Vivio's Relic?), but what was he doing or intending to do with the other relics he collected?

Yeah, I think his telling Lutecia about requiring a Relic was just his way of controlling her for his own purposes.

How many relics are in the Nanoha series?
Can you name them out?

Acording to this, the "relics" or "Lost Logia" are remains of what was the old Belkan Imperie, who was a bast kingdom rich in magic that for not very clear reasons dissapearad, so, there can't be an exactly number of relics because as I said, they're remains of the Belkan Imperie.

I meant Relics as in "glowing red crystal-shaped Lost Logia that Jail is after", not relics as in "Lost Logia and old magical artifacts in general".

Let me think...

One in the ruins from the first few chapters of the StrikerS manga.
One was responsible for blowing up the 8th Coastal Airport in the StrikerS manga and StrikerS episode 1.
One was on the train in episode 5
I think there was one at Hotel Augusta in eps. 7-8
One was found with Vivio, that was most likely her relic
Might have been a few more in the StrikerS manga, but I think that's all of them.

Jail had a whole lot of them in his base, iirc. like dozens of them at the very least.

A small wondering about TSAB-Administered World No.61 and the nature preservation. StrikerS shows Caro and Erio a small bit at the end and SSX has a small episode with them capturing illegal hunters while also showing a bit more. However, do we know anything more about No. 61? Cities, the whole world, other areas, etc.

I'm planning an episode here and unless there is more canon info I'll have to build it up...which will be fun of course.

LoweGear · 2009-07-01, 18:13

Like everything else about StrikerS, everything we know about World 61 is the basics: Nature preservation planet, with floating islands. Nothing else asides from that however.

Rising Dragon · 2009-07-01, 18:18

Has it been explained why (other than convenient plot device) Arisa and Suzuka were active in the barrier during the fight with the Book of Darkness in A's? Do they have magic potential or something, which allowed them to be active within it while no one else was?

Keroko · 2009-07-01, 18:31

As far as I know, that's a giant plothole that has never been approached officially.

That and a Triangle Hearts shout-out.

What's the shout-out about? I only have a rudimentary knowledge of Triangle Hearts 3. I'm guessing it involves Arisa's plotline in the game?

It's because in Triangle Hearts, Arisa is a ghost, and Shinobu (Suzuka's older sister--I believe Suzuka herself is a Nanoha-original character unless she was introduced in the fandisc? My TH knowledge is not what it could be) is a vampire (presumably in the Japanese Vampire sense in that they're born, grow up, have families, etc.) implying that Suzuka is one too. Thus as they'd both be supernatural creatures, they'd get sucked into a barrier that scoops up only the magically active.

(There's another wink-and-a-nudge of sorts in the A's manga, chapter 4, when Suzuka flashes superhuman physical abilities in the dodgeball game.

)

Tormenk · 2009-07-02, 07:16

Another theory is that the barrier registered the two as targets as well. Possible, since Arisa and Suzuka did visit Hayate right before things got ugly and Reinforce just included them along with Nanoha and Fate as targets for elimination.

Frisko · 2009-07-03, 10:45

If one doesn't include characters that are much older then they look (e.g. Signum), is Nanoha the oldest magical girl in any anime/manga?

Keroko · 2009-07-03, 16:45

Lindy, Quint and Megane still beat their daughters by several decades. I mean, Lindy alone has to be at the very least in her 40's during StrikerS.

Rising Dragon · 2009-07-03, 16:49

Not that you can really tell with Lindy. She ages like a fine wine. =X

Keroko · 2009-07-03, 17:16

Name me one woman in Nanoha who doesn't. I mean even Mizetto of the 3 admirals, who herself has got to be over a hundred years old has certainly managed to age with grace.
