MAGICAL GIRL LYRICAL NANOHA STRICKERS SERIES

Caro is a little girl who can use magic to enhance others' abilities, cast barriers, and summon dragons. These two are eventually joined by two 10 year olds. This does have the unfortunate side effect of her being the most prideful of the two as well, which means she's also more likely to react badly to screwing up. She's generally the more straightforward and cautious of the two, thus less likely to just rush into any potential danger, screaming at the top of her lungs. She sports a twin set of guns and has the ability to create illusions. Teana, a 16 year old girl, is assigned to be Subaru's partner from the beginning of the show.

She's also the energetic one of the two, and while she isn't exactly dumb, she's also not quite as smart or tactical as her partner, Teana. Her tools consist of a huge mechanical glove on her right arm for fighting purposes and a set of rollerskates which she uses for transportation, and her magical ability is the ability to create beams of light in the air which she skates on. In her childhood, she was saved by Nanoha from a burning and collapsing building.

While most of the Nanoha cast is still present and accounted for, the series focuses attention (at least for a while) on two new girls: Very good, I'd even say.Īnd now we have StrikerS, which takes place five years after A's epilogue. Unlike the first series, A's was consistently interesting, with a series of 'antagonists' who weren't simply bland and one-dimensional. This series cranked up the fights quite a bit, as well as flashing some backstory for Fate as well. Then we had A's, which introduced Hayate, a frail young girl in a wheelchair, as well as her protectors of sorts. (I give bonus points automatically to any magical girl show that's not about power-hungry villains wanting to rule/destroy the world.) It was a fairly dull, by-the-numbers magical girl series whose second half more or less saved the show, along with some cute costume designs and an in-typical plot for a magical girl series. The first season, Magical Girl Lyrical Nanoha, was about a little girl named Nanoha, a mage/ferret named Yuuno, and her rival/friend-to-be Fate and her familiar, a dog-girl named Arf. Let's look at the history of the franchise. You went from a decent show to an even great one, but your most recent effort is.

Nanoha is also now a captain who takes care of new recruits, and quickly finds herself two new ones: Subaru Nakajima, who was saved by Nanoha when she was a little girl, and Teana Lanster, an orphan who lost her parents and older brother when she was. Years after A's, Nanoha, Fate, and Hayate now work full-time at the Time-Space Administration Bureau.
