Why does everyone want action from Erio? what exactly is it about him.
Wouldn't development for Signum, Vita, Chrono or Fate be more desired.

Is there some old and very good fan-fiction I've missed?
All likability aside, he seems to have been inserted as filler so the teams are balanced.

But maybe I'm too naive of what you mean by "action".

We've been enthralled by him ever since he pulled a Sonic Move on Caro and got an atypical response indeed. Then, at the height of the hetero VS yuri ship war, he became the champion of the hetero world. And then the SS gave us another Erio uberness (Chaos' Avatar came from that track).

And hence, our hopes are on Erio. Having blazed a trail so far ahead of Chrono and Yuuno, with not much sign of stopping, you could say we "can expect great things from this boy."

i personally dont give a dam about the red haired monkey...as much as you guys will like to see it erio isnt going to end up with caro...just like how yuuno missed his chance with nanoha...its never going to happen but some fanboys will never give up

im actually willing to put some cookies on the table and say that by the end of this series erio would be either dead or dead

*runs*

[ichibaka]

filler... I'm not so sure about that, but I do believe his role in this season is as a way to make up to the fans for Chrono and Yuuno's lack of loli-magnet power that the fans desired.

His patended loli-in-distress detector is an instant classic

Ouch, kinda hard on the rookie aren't ya?

And don't compare him to ferret-boy, he didn't go far with Nanoha because she met him as a ferret in the beginning and that didn't help...well, the ferret thing helped Yuuno in the hot springs, but he didn't go much farther than that

Besides, Erio and Caro have a nice relationship, they're the same age, they work together, Fate (and Shari too) seem to be trying to pair them up...especially Shari...

If they keep working together, in a few more years they'll definitely become a couple, just like Chrono and Amy. It's a bad example, but it's the only one I can compare them to (Sorry Chaos ).

Also,would be nice to see by the end of StrikerS another "? years later"
But, then again, seein Nanoha, Fate and Hayate even older would be bad, wouldn't it?

Oh I see, just one nit-pick..
What yuri are you mumbling about?! Even the fan-fiction for Fate x Nanoha's relationship seems to go only as far as shoujo ai. Well there are naughty ones in the image thread ~ but they are a very small minority. Either way the show presents little to nothing of either. Isn't your campaign over-kill, even if for say Nanoha and Fate's relationship was shoujo ai, wouldn't Erio molesting every female character in the show be 100 times worse.

I personally take it as the cute brother-sister relationship.
With your average fanservice thrown in like for most series.
I'm personally thinking it's more the fanservice you find in games.

.
How old is he anyway? 9?

You mean the avg non-blood related anime sibling relationship. Yes, that is much better.

The issue here is about being realistic. Signum an Vita's character development directly corresponds with Hayate's, and that was done in A's. Chrono and Fate had their share of stuff in the earlier seasons. They will get their down-time, but it's not meant to be on the solid limelight.

I can go on a length and ask that development on the 3 Legendary Admirals/TSAB's founding and past or Yuuno's, trailing his history, and the Scrya clan further...but really now...

We know Elio has a lot of potential. We're being indirectly promised that as well, the moment we're given the yet-to-be-explored "Project F" subplot. Well...it's just not so apparent yet.

[DmonHiro]

We all want Erio development cause he's the only male in the series (all of them) to have actually done something in battle (Yuno, Chrono and Zafira had brief battle cameos.....short cameos). So we want to see a male kick some ass in the nanoverse

[Chaos2Frozen]

We should do this more often to start up threads again

No no~ You're right sentence should be, "I kinda given up on an Erio development anytime soon after seeing the way things are going."

I swear people would just keep asking that question

To have a Fate development, you more or less would also get a Erio development, seeing as how things are heading...

Signum really doesn't have anything interesting to add and the only thing that keeps Vita likely for a development is her paranoia.

I don't want to hear that coming from a yuri fan

*Face flat on table*

The fact that there's more yuri hints then otherwise is stressing enough.

And for the last time, not EVERY female...

It's call a LOLI detector for a reason!

And all those times wasn't his fault!

Cats... Do you just have a habit of ignoring the obvious Cause seriously, it's just not right to block out memories like that I remember pointing out several hints of a (For once) NON-siblings relationship

And he's 10.

[Thisguy]

About Regius discussion in previous pages, he's most likely to be Ground rather than Navy from several evidence that he seems to focus more on the Midchilda itself (on-world rather than inter-world, in other words), and his seeming dislikeness to the Sea(slang refers to Navy) when he heard who's backing up RF6.
So, Lt. General would be more appropriate than Vice Admiral imo...

Anyway, now I wonder if there're anything like Airforce at all, considering Ground takes the care of on-world issue while Navy does inter-world, assuming from Chrono and Verossa's conversation in comic.
That makes "Air" a part of Ground... or something like that.

Yeah I caught that hint of distaste as well when he spoke of Chrono and Lindy.

But there's still the problem of the uniform...

Hmm, you may be right about that...

If that's the case, I'm thinking that the Air Force could be considered the elites of ground division. Since you must be of a certain caliber to be flying

While Cs, Bs and a few As make up most of the ground soldiers.

So if Ground Forces only deal with situations within the planet, it brings me back to the question, "Wouldn't it be better if RF6 was part of Navy instead?"

[Mow Yun]

It would, but Hayate is part of the ground force, and therefore RF6 is part of the Ground Forces, I would think.

How long would it take Hayate to reach the neccesary rank and position of establishing her own "l33t task force" had she done it in the more l33t Airforce or Navy? It took Hayate 4 years in the Ground Forces... For all we know, she needs another 5 had she opted elsewhere. And we need to know where she started herself as well. Of course, pure speculation.

And besides...

Spoiler for future episodes:

Spoiler for spoilar:

APPARENTLY... RF6's true purpose is beyond Lost Logia handling... Hayate keeps organizational secrets even from Nanoha and Fate!!?!?!?!? Oh noes!!!!!!

[Chaos2Frozen]

Hmmm, you're right, I didn't take into account that having someone from Ground force jump to Navy would require more work...

But still, being in Navy would mean that they'll have a higher chance of encountering some of the more dangerous lost logias out there, instead of waiting for them to come through smuggling.

There's no evidence that they will not leave Midchildra if needed for their missions. In fact, there is evidence to the contrary.

You're refering to the sound stage? That was because Carim had asked them to...

It's still evidence to the contrary. Besides, I have a hard time believing that the ground forces are restricted to Midchildra when, well, the events of the manga also happened.

And Carim is the one of three person that (technically) has direct-control of RF6.
Further more,

Spoiler:

What if the "True Reason" has something to do with that...?

Maybe Hayate will be telling N&F not because of Regius himself, but because she wants to assure them that RF6 is NOT up to something that being snooped for everyone's goodness.
