Poor Tea's face though...she shouldn't have healed up so fast from that shiner. Anyway, Nanoha is boss as usual, her maternal style is so soothing and sweet and I can understand why Teana just flopped into her lap like a baby.

More mental and physical abuse for Teana? I'm there.
One sob story (poor Nanoha though...) and another ticket for a huge guilt trip given by Nanoha in a one-on-one chat later, and the problem is solved. Since Magical Girl Lyrical Nanoha has always been about making enemies friends, we really couldn't expect this kind of thing to last. A pity.
Where's the Subaru love though? We have Caro busting out her dragon, Tia showing off skills she was supposed to learn later, and Erio...being boosted by Caro. I need to see a point-blank Buster soon, but they give us a two part vacation episode.
When she did, I was hoping Erio or Subaru would have picked up some small pebble and thrown it at her, hitting her in the head to stop the crybaby action...Originally Posted by Yukimura
But seriously, the next episode is the first of a two episode vacation arc..? From what I can see, this whole series has so far been one big vacation with only a couple of minor skirmishes here and there. Just when are they going to get serious, if at all?
I could see the second half of the vacation going sour, and the forwards on their own. The Doctor will want to test them soon as well.
I'm hoping all this training will be a warm up for the second half of the series, which with any luck could be non-stop action episodes. Perhaps it's a bit too much to hope for. We've been spoiled by Nanoha's own reckless development.
Just finished watching episode 5, after they finish rescuing the train. Is it me or does Erio really suck? He's lacking quite a lot in uniquity as well. I mean, being the only male mage on the forward team, should allow him to be special or do something decent right? But, he's total fodder, and relies a lot on Kyaro's boosting spells as all his abilities seem to stem from there, like the Spear Snake or whatever. I haven't caught up yet, but does he stay so useless?
The pacing has been kind of slow so were not sure where anyone stands yet. Nanoha believes in each of them for specific reasons which you discover in ep 9.
Neither Erio nor Caro get any screen time time after the train incident, so it's hard to say whether he really is that useless or not. But if you look at the shots where he is with the others, you see how small he and Caro are. Maybe they mentioned how old he and Caro are, maybe not, but he's gotta be really young to be so tiny. So, I guess it's reasonable he's not showing huge prowess in battle yet. Still, let's hope he will be in a real life or death situation sooner or later and will then show the girls who's the Man...
Got tired of waiting for DGZ's releases so I downloaded 3 eps of Yesy...
I see different reactions to the eps here. And maybe its just me, or maybe it was because of seeing three eps together... but I liked them, a lot. Must have been because it could have been a 'full arc' or whatever.
I would love to see the battle where Nanoha got almost killed animated though.
Wonder if Nanoha StrikerS manga covers this... hmmm... should get scanlations... (supposedely the StrikerS manga ties A's to StrikerS)
