Rewatched the first two Nanoha seasons this week, then made the mistake of continuing into StrikerS. Need to vent.
>I loved the first two seasons. They were perfect.
>A cute magical girl show that knew when to shut up and let the characters breathe instead of padding the runtime.
>I loved watching Nanoha and Fate grow from rivals into the kind of "best friends" that spawned an entire tag on every doujin site.
>I loved the urban fantasy setting. Regular Earth, regular school, a hidden magical world that stayed small enough that Nanoha's actual friends and family got to stay part of her life.
>I loved the TSAB as this low key, mostly benign org that showed up when it mattered and otherwise left the story alone.
>I loved that the show respected my time and never dragged its feet.
Then fucking StrikerS happened.
>Yuuno? Chrono? The characters you actually cared about? Fuck you, benched. Say hello to a dozen interchangeable cadets and a small army of cyborgs the show can't even be bothered to make memorable, let alone develop.
>That cozy Earth setting you liked? Fuck you, we're relocating the whole cast to Midchilda so we can spend a third of the season on chain of command and recruit training. I came here to watch magical girls beat up bad guys, not sit through onboarding for a space police force
>The TSAB you liked because it stayed out of the way? Fuck you, now it's a bloated bureaucracy tangled up with the Church for no reason anyone can explain.
[cont]
>>
>Nanoha and Fate's whole relationship, the thing the first two seasons spent all their time earning? Fuck you, ten years just happened off screen. The accident that costs Nanoha her arm, the years of training, the actual formation of the family you cared about. You don't get one frame of it. It's already done by episode one, take it or leave it.
>That tight pacing you liked? Fuck you, here's a training arc for characters you've known for fifteen minutes, while the girls you actually came for get benched and nerfed so the new kids look competent next to them.
>Enjoy trying to keep the new villains straight while you're at it. Two dozen of them, most with a number instead of a personality, and the show still expects you to care when they start peeling off into their own arcs.
>Oh, and one of the new recruits gets thoroughly destroyed for shock value about ten episodes in, and then the show grinds to a halt for the next ten trying to patch her back together.
And here's the part that actually gets me. Any ONE of these changes on its own, I could've lived with. New setting, fine, if you actually show me the move instead of teleporting me there. Timeskip, fine, if I get to see even a little of what I missed. Military structure, sure, that could even work as its own spinoff. But StrikerS doesn't ease you into any of it. It dumps the entire retooled show on you in episode one and dares you to still care.
Yeah, adult Nanoha and Fate finally getting to be happy together with Vivio is sweet, and the finale actually sticks the landing. Doesn't change the fact that they burned down everything I loved about this show to get there. And you KNOW the new series will just fuck things up even further with their parallel universe bullshit. I just wanted little girls fighting with sciency magic for goodness sake

I like StrikerS and it's because the new cadets are likeable enough to carry the whole show on their own. That said, they bungle their introductions by making their progress tied to training exercises. They should be kicking ass volume 1.

Subaru is also one of the best magical girls ever created, ever. She was the template for so many sporty tomboys that came after her, while also being a homage to a dozen mecha series protagonists. Really, Teana drags her down in comparison, because Subaru is so obviously the hero of the story. It would have almost been better if it were her alone and Teana were a background character.

>And here's the part that actually gets me. Any ONE of these changes on its own, I could've lived with. New setting, fine, if you actually show me the move instead of teleporting me there.

Don't feel like you're alone here because this was also a big complaint while the show was airing.

>>289051947
There were two accidents.
One was the movie Nanoha Detonation, came out in 2020 or so? Nanoha's arm got blown off and she's now cybernetic.

The other one is in the flashback in StrikerS where one of Jail's gadget drones put an Anti-Magic field scythe through her chest, and she was in a coma for an unspecified amount of time (I think it was like a year).

The latter was always seen as a cop-out because it would have been prime material to show IN StrikerS.Maybe as a prologue or as a nightmare. Instead, we only see it through Vita's flashbacks in the manga I don't remember if this is ever shown in the show. I just know they refer to it as Nanoha's 'injury'.
>>
>>289052157
It wouldn't be a Tsuzuki thing if it didn't shamelessly incorporate whatever elements of the thing he's currently obsessed with. In Dog Days it was Isekai, in StrikerS it was military manga, in ViviD it was sports manga, in Force it was 00's Grimedge. Trend chaser by heart.

As of a few days ago (June 29) the Lyrical Nanoha VN is now 25 years old. Toraha is pretty much ignored at this point (except by Hokuto Minami, Nanoha's original voice actor, who continues to draw fanart of it to this day) but I wonder if the new series airing this close to the anniversary was intentional in some way.

I remember trying to watch Vivid, after having not watched StrikerS for many years, and just immediately realising there were a bunch of the numbered characters in it that I was clearly supposed to remember and casually know the personalities and relationships of. I decided to drop it after the first episode, promising to return after I rewatched StrikerS. I have yet to do that, though.

Perhaps the author have no idea how to progress within the story logic which is why he skipped to strikers? Its probably hard to sell watching nanoha in military academy doing mundane training without anyone to blow up.

S3 shoud be about Nanoha and friends on high school. Also they should stick to the shoujo roots with Chrono and Yuuno transfering to Nanoha's school because reasons and instantly getting their respective fan club.

Not sure what you're talking about, the majority of people wanted Suletta and Miorine to end up together since episode one, specially the female fans.

She has done so in every continuity so far, expecting that doing so again would cause a shitstorm sounds very naive and disconnected from the franchise.
Fate literally binds Nanoha and Fate together, regardless of whatever crazy universe they get rebooted in. This is canonical metanarrative at this point.

If you read this somewhere, it's almost certainly some hyperniche poll desgined to fit a specific narrative. I'm certain that there is no wide-scale poll to back up your claim.

>We're discussing an AU where Nanoha stick to its shoujo roots rather than going full otaku.
Yeah, in that context I added that regardless of the situation, Nanoha and Fate and fated to get together. But I suppose in your hypothetical scenario we would retcon that too.

Like who else? Vice has a couple of gratuitous scenes they should've given to literally anyone else. But he is the only character who gets those extra scenes. The only scene that doesn't have one of the actual main characters or main villains fighting are when the Wolkenritter fight (and Zafira and Shamal were done dirty) or the single scene when Schach and Acous check out the cave. And in that case they get no dramatic backstory drop and they are mostly plot devices as minor characters should be.

what are the best torrents on nyaa for detonation? [ron] seemed pretty good for reflection except for the fact that there were no song subs and my nip isn't good enough to catch the lyrics very well
>>
>>289067120
I have [ron] for both of them, but there's also Fete Rider. When I was looking for downloads recently though (for the remake movies) people were saying that for one of them Fete Rider used an inferior video source, but I don't know how their Reflection and Detonation encodes are.

The only other option are the bluray subs which is what the other releases use. I watched those before Ron's release. I could barely follow what was going on and later learned how much they got horribly wrong.

I don't like song lyric subs since it's difficult to follow multiple lines on the screen at the same time. If I want to know what the lyrics are saying, there are tons of sites for that.

Magical girls in the sense of Nanoha are from Cutie Honey, a shounen. And Nanoha is a eroge spin-off with mecha influences. It has zero shoujo roots, retarded tourist.

She can drain life cores from anything that uses magic, even if it's kind of a gimmick attack as As showed. The movies do it well.

She and Suzuka appear for all of five seconds in a picture in Nanoha's room when they were in elementary school.

>>289070381
Was that Inspector Acous, the green haired guy with the spirit dogs? He's exactly what I mean because he does exactly one thing and gets a cool fight scene so Fate can come in and handle the rest. He doesn't get a bunch of backstory (that I remember) crammed into a few scenes like Vice does.
>>289070712
It makes for an interesting alternate setting like someone's elaborate fanfic. I don't really think of it as canon to the original or As, just like I don't think of movies 3 and 4 as canon either. Especially since Detonation ends up with the same feel as Strikers in the end but half the enemies they fight feel like Symphogear rejects. And so do half the barrier jackets and weapons and shit for that matter.

Signum was giving Fate a hard time but Nanoha was able to handle Vita after getting cartridges. Shamal is a support even though she FISTED Nanoha
>>
>>289073726
But Nanoha is stronger than Fate, no?
Shamal is kind of a question mark since it's hard to gauge her power vs Vita and Singum's combat prowess.
I would think Signum boosted by Agito is the strongest but barring Unison I think it's a tough call.
>>
>>289073786
Nanoha and Fate should be pretty similar. Fate actually managed to handle Vita in episode 2 (although with Arf's help), before powerups.

I'd say Nanoha, Fate and Signum should all be pretty close in A's with Vita being a nudge below, and from this point it depends on matchups and choices made. Neither side had a really good time in A's and it could've gone either way so the cats helped the Wolks clutch this.

Not sure how it goes during StrikerS or later though.
>>
Power levels mean nothing in the Nanoha universe, it's all about fighting smart using strategy and experience, as was shown in one of the comics when their instructor took them down even though she had much lower power levels than nanoha and fate

There was also that chapter in the StrikerS manga with the kids researching the power levels of the adults

We see Alisa and Shizuka for a page or two in the Exceeds manga. Like Nanoha they're supposed to be 13 but look more like 19.

StrikerS and As, I'd say. StrikerS gets points for actually trying to expand and move the story/setting. Too bad the efforts stalled with Force hiatus and Vivid abandoning any attempts at story post volume 11-12.

She was great and I'm tired of pretending otherwise.
Half the fanbase seemed to go into the movies wanting for the Materials being wanked despite them being pretty bad case of edgy clone character/metal remix syndrome with little substance, this bitch(dindu) stealing the show thoroughly and giving it actual legs to stand on was such a pleasant surprise. Detonation was quite above my expectations thanks to her.
