Mahou Shoujo Lyrical Nanoha StrikerS is so perfect, I couldn’t of asked for more. HAX Nanoha, MILF Fate, Chibi Reinforce (so moe I’m gonna die!), and Subaru’s hot pants and taut stomach. Ok, that last one was pretty weird, but it is Nanoha.

“Restraint,” is not in Nanoha’s vocabulary.

Cue “Eye of the Tiger” music.

Right, the story. So it’s six years in the future now and Subaru, acting like a crybaby, is trapped in a burning building. Fortunately Nanoha comes in and rescues her, using the force equivalent to destroy a planet in the process. Thus does Subaru’s yuri crush on Nanoha begin. Another time-skip and now Subaru is a mage in the Time and Space Bureau Administration who enjoys martial arts, rollerblades, and kicking ass and taking names. Apparently the uniform for close-range fighters consists of hotpants and exposed midriffs, not that I’m complaining. Her partner is Teana, mega tsundere bitch Asuka-clone who fights using guns that can only hold two cartridges at once. My question is, if technology is so great, why do Teana’s guns only hold two bullets? They probably can be fired repeatedly, but still. Girl could learn something from “I use fucking sniper rifles to kill maguses,” Kiritsugu.

Overpowered and loli’s just go well together.

I feel like I need to draw an arrow to show where Rein is.

The both of them have to complete a training course in order to be promoted to B rank. Of course, they both manage to pass, but not before Teana sprains her ankle protecting Subaru. Good thing Subaru has enough ass-kicking power for the two of them and goes on to defeat the big boss. Subaru’s final attack is awesome. Since she can’t fly, she makes a road of energy in the air and speeds along it, building up energy to release her own devestating Divine Buster. In the end they both pass the finish line and get scolded by Reinforce (so moe!). Nanoha also makes an appearance and does what she does best: befriend the hell out of you. This episode was great for introducing Subaru and her awesomeness, since she is kind of the main character this season. Nanoha, Fate, and Hayate also show up, but we sort of see them from the viewpoint of Subaru and Teana where they’re the equivalents of God. Which is kind of true actually. First few episodes will be introducing the cast I guess before we get to the meat of the story.

Subaru is godly awesome. Everything about her is incredible. Instead of shooting off beams like everyone else, she gets up close and personal and knocks your face in with her rollerblades. Or maybe she’ll deliver a right hook to your head and explode your skull. She could do that. Her design is moe, cute, and hawt. The hotpants and exposed stomach are the hawt parts, but also her jacket and really long ribbons just gives a really cool impression. Her attitude isn’t annoying, and anyone who says the essence to victory is yelling is alright in my book. Her looking up to Nanoha is also cute. I wonder if it would be wrong to advocate Nanoha x Subaru?

Don’t piss off Thirty centimeters tall magical tomes of destruction.

Oh god Reinforce is moe! Just look at her! She thirty centimeters tall, where’s a cute little suit, is hyperactive, and liable to blow up in your face. The best part is probably seeing this little fairy going around in a suit and tie. Hard to believe she’s Hayate’s chief of staff. How is she supposed to get any respect? Then again, she’d probably kill you for badmouthing her (or Hayate). Pure moe always comes in the smallest packages I guess.

So, what? They all sleep together? Awesome.
