Started a few of the series that aired this season:

- Youjo Senki
- Masamune-kun no Revenge
- Seiren

I've only liked the first episode of Youjo Senki out of those three. I could be biased though. As Aoi Yuuki is one of my favourite voice actresses.

You know, there is something I have never quite understood about Lyrical Nanoha StrikerS. Why Nanoha had two forms of her Barrier Jacket. One form was a skirt with cloth draping down the back, leaving the front short. The other one was the full on dress she had in both Lyrical Nanoha and Lyrical Nanoha A's.

The only explanation I can come up with is the Limiter she had on her for the majority of StrikerS, but even that explanation doesn't quite make sense. What reason would she have for wanting to reduce the protection provided by the Barrier Jacket.

Her fighting styles isn't like Fate's, which is hit fast and hard with physical attacks, and supplement this with shooter and cannon attacks, which is why Fate has the Sonic form, where she reduces protection to a minimum in order to increase speed to the maximum. Nanoha is a mid to long range shooter/ cannon type, which is the opposite of Fates, being a short to mid range physical combat style.

I don't know, maybe I'm just putting too much thought into it, but it bugs me. Leader of The Enemy ||

Continued watching new series that aired this season:

- Urara Meirochou
- Demi-chan wa Kataritai

I had already known about Demi-chan wa Kataritai as I started reading the source when it was first published. I was surprised it got an anime adaptation so quickly. The first anime episode was really strong and I thoroughly enjoyed it.

As for Urara Meirochou. I had no expectations as I hadn't heard of it before. Pleasantly surprised, I really enjoyed the first episode.

Next up is Little Witch Academia. I think it airs either today or tomorrow.

ive started several series again this season but none of which seem spectacular yet. however i think im going to like Ao no Exorcist: Kyoto Fujouou-hen. it seems to be following the manga exactly again. i had gotten caught up on the manga up til like summer of last year when it got removed from the site i was following it on. wonder how far along im gunna recognize the story since where i was at in the manga is way ahead of the anime

but i really liked the first season. its rare i like a story enough to read the manga after seeing it. also makes me want to find and get caught up on the manga again Old School

When good VNs get animated they get butchered. Such as Fate, Grisaia, Umineko, Rewrite and many others. Even then it is subjective.

when they try to cover every route (i.e. Yosuga no Sora), somebody screws up the execution/becomes a bit confusing... "All men are jealous and stupid, and all women are stupid to be happy about it, idiots are everywhere you look…"

That's due to budget constraints. If you were to realistically adapt a visual novel faithfully into an animation then you would need way more episodes.

They just shouldn't adapt visual novels, if they do not have the budget to support it.

So I just watched the new PV for Lyrical Nanoha Reflection that was released during ComiKet 91, and I have to say, I don't really know what to think. It's drawing characters from the Gear Chronicle game, and Nanoha has some of the weaponry from the Force manga, which takes place if I remember correctly 7 years after the end of StrikerS.

Also, the movie is going to be a two-parter, with a completely original story, and apparently it's taking place 6 months after the end of A's.

As for airing, it will begin airing in theaters July 22nd it seems.

But no, with that mix of elements, i honestly have no idea what to expect at this point. Leader of The Enemy ||
