Part 3: MGLN innocent chapter 7 review

After a 5 hours sleep, I am (kinda) recharged! Well then, as said, part 3 of the 3-parts special! Enjoy!

This is a quick summary of the story so far! Looks like the competition is in the form of a ball game... So then previously, from the last chapter 6(Spoilers if you've not read...), apparently, Nanoha, Arisa and Suzuka faced off with the National champion who is none other than...

Stern from the dark material team who is based on Nanoha in the PSP game! (P.S. This is not part of the chapter; it's here to show some background...) If you've read the first chapter, you'll know that Fate is ranked second...Which makes me curious as to who is the first and there you have it! Well, no surprise since in MGLN, Nanoha could be said to be the strongest but since she is not in the game yet... The dark material who techically has the same barrier jacket, device and even magic as Nanoha would be the first! Enough rambling, let's start!

The battle continues with a wonderful combination of pass between Suzuka to Arisa before trying to attack the enemy but sadly...

The plan did not work that well...(What did you expect?- That girl is the National Champion!)

Worried faces as the ball is with the opposing team while Hayate is smiling...(Don't know why is she in her barrier jacket...) If you did not read the last chapter, Fate and her cute sister, Alicia acted as Nanoha, Arisa and Suzuka cheering team!

Counter attack by Stern...

Ganbatte Nanoha!

Hayate requesting a time-out...

Meeting for some tactics...

Seems like the team is still strong in spirits!

Hayate the good advisor!

O.o seems like Vita has the face of 'I want to help too...' and...

Off she goes, giving a card to Arisa which will support the team! (Am I sensing a possible pairing; ArisaXVita? Read on to find out cos there are more hints later on!)

Stern getting serious!-Scary...

Those perverts... I guess that long barrier jacket has its cons... At this point, you wonder what is Stern doing, pulling her dress up, showing her bare legs, soaring high and get shock at what she does next!

Using her leg to kick the ball with an addition of some magic added! (That ball sure is something!- It did not break after being engulfed with the flames!)

What's the plan, N-A-S(Nanoha-Arisa-Suzuka) Team?

To reflect the ball to...Arisa and then...

Hit the ball as if it is baseball to...

Nanoha who at this point, has picked up a skill Fate used and preparing her attack! (A short NanoFate scene!)

With that, (I think it is divine buster and not SLB) Nanoha going full power to shoot the ball to Stern who...

Just broke out a sweat or two and in her mind, thinking: 'are you for real?'  

Kaboom! Did we get her? Well, Stern really is something, surviving that beam without much a scratch! (Then again, Stern is based on Nanoha so naturally she has Nanoha's strong defensive magic! I must say this again, that ball is something! Not breaking or even a dent... I guessed in a game, physics don't apply much since humans can fly...) Even so...

N-A-S team still wins! Wow, in a short amount of time, they just gained so much fame!

The majestry is trying hard not to show her happiness...

Vita joined the team in a highfive for the victory while Nanoha and Stern talked and...

Becomes friends! (Maybe just now, it was SLB since it was said that, that was Nanoha's way of befriending someone but I may be wrong...Looking closely, if Nanoha does not have the twintails, I bet Stern and her can be twins...)

NanoFate time; Fate thinking about Nanoha and Alicia noticing it... Seems like Alicia is quite accepting since at the beginning:

When Fate and Nanoha were sharing their moments, she gets...Jealous? Oh well...(P.S. This is from earlier chapter; it is just for references!)

Another VitaXArisa moment there...

The story turns its focus to the florian sisters who did not make much of an appearance yet...Only at the first 2 chapters...

Talking about food before Amite pouts about something...(Can't read japanese, sorry about that...)

This manga is great since old characters who are like forgotten in MGLN series are back with more roles and not excluded! This manga also shows a lot of hints that fans of yuri would like! Examples:

Arisa getting jealous at Suzuka talking with the Majestry...ArisaXSuzuka...

LindyXPrecia moment!- Precia sure is cute being dragged by Lindy for running away and leaving a doll to take over her position...

And, the favourite: NANOFATE moment! Nice seeing this obvious intereactions!

Sadly, their moment just got interrupted...After all, it is a public place...
Basically, this manga could be said to be going along with many yuri fans' wishes! I admitted that NanoFate pairing is great so yeah, I do love such scenes! Just noticed that no boys are introduced so far except for the Doctor in the Florian Girls' side... Yunno and Chrono not making appearance? I guess in MGLN, boys don't stand much ground in there...Sigh... The sad truth...

Well then, hope all enjoy! Sorry if the comments made are wrong since they are based on what I see and not from what I understand cos I can't read japanese...Until next time, ciao~

Part 2: MGLN Vivid chapter 49 Review

Chapter 49 cover with Vivio and  Miura(A possible couple: VivioXMiura?) 

Seems like Hayate and Nove sense something!- Hope they realised there's a weird girl, kidnapping the girls...(Spoiler if you've not read the last chapter: Einhart is already a victim...)

On the other hand, Seiglinde is fighing hard with that weird girl's minion which is small and hard to hit...However...Hate to say this but Seiglinde...

As much as you want to destroy that annoying fly, could you refrain from DESTROYING THE BOOKS?- Though I am asking the impossible...(This reminds of a scene in TRC in which the fighting setting is the same; in a library and Syaoran tried his best to fight while protecting the books though there was no need to...)

At here, I assumed that Seiglinde has a child form or that the annoying fly just did something cos...

That fly came back to its owner with a wide smile that said, 'mission accomplished' or something along this line... Anyway, Corona and the lightning knight are the next targets... (Hope they don't ended up as victims too, considering the number of minions of that weird girls that they have to face in the next page!)


Please be in one piece with your clothes and everything!

Next target: Vivio or Miura? (From the looks of it, Miura should be the one but that just confuses me... Isn't that girl trying to get the Belken girls?)

Here comes the attack that will put one in a jar without clothes...(Damm what kind of spell is that?) "Not if I can stop it!" Said Miura's Knight in shining armour, Vivio Takamachi!

Wow, Miura's blushing while Vivio successfully defends or rather counters the attack and that...

Pissed off the weird girl... Her minion just got toasted... Will that be enough to stop her?

Well then, think again as the weird girl unleashed her attack this time instead having her minions doing her work all the time...

And, looking at this scene, I've a bad feeling and I was...

Right... Miura got eaten, put in jar without clothes...Sigh...When is this insanty going to end? (Wonder what happen to Vivio...)

And, we come back to how Corona and the lightning knight are doing.- They're clearly holding up pretty good though with the master back... I wonder how long can they last...Ganbatte girls!  
If you can see, at the top right hand corner, seems like the other girls are also captured... Hayate is hot in the investigation...(Hayate, please quickly realised before everyone is captured in jars, naked...

Since I can't read japanese, assumption again: Hayate is either setting up her barrier jacket or using some spell like 'wide area search'? After all, this is called the INFINITE library...

The poor girls... I can't look any longer...

However... Seems like the girls trapped have counter attacks planned...


Hope it works!

Yes! Another cute scene where the threesome makes an appearance! Wonder how Jeremiah looks like without the hood...Got a feeling that the weird is related to the threesome in some ways... O.o Seems like someone to the rescue! (Nove? Hayate? Well, you wouldn't expect...)

Lutecia, Chris and Tio to the rescue!

Introduction and greetings first before...

I eat you up but...(You taste horrible...)

Sad to say, that did not work and instead...Vivio is rescued!  (Good thing that she's still small or else my eyes...) And, another win for...

Tio, the chibi tiger! Saving your master away from clutches of that weird girl! Good job, Tio!

With that, it's time for a face-off to see who gets those two naked girls...Lutecia VS The weird girl! Stay tune to the next issue that only comes out after a month or so...(This reminds of a joke in which the characters stay this way for a month before their stories can continue and the heroine just took a seat while waiting for that one month to come!)


And this is MGLN Vivid chapter 49! Hope all love it! Sorry to all if it bothers you that real name of that weird girl and the lightning knight were not used but the nicknames I gave to them...And that, the photos taken were not of a high quality... In addition, as I can't read japanese, sorry to all if my deductions based on the pictures are wrong... (Small changes...Apparently, part 3 will have to be done tomorrow since it is quite late already and I still have work to do...)

With that, I'll be signing off now! Hope you readers enjoy it!

Part 1: Jap stuff bought!

First, hi to all! I'll be doing a three parts special! That means there will be three posts in one go and then my blogging activity should stop soon as I am going focus most of my time on my studies! (I even stopped reading manga now...To some, this is nothing but just take it as me, giving up my source of enterainment...) Well then, without further a do, let's start with a quick preview of this 3-parts special!

PART 1: Stuff bought from Japan!
PART 2: Magical Girl Lyrical Nanoha Vivid Chapter 49 Review
PART 3: Magical Girl Lyrical Nanoha Innocent Chapter 7  Review

Today, my sister just came back from Japan! As I requested, the stuff were bought! Being overly excited, I was like a kid, unwrapping my presents during Christmas... Here are the stuff I requested!

First of all: Fate Figurine MGLN Movie First edition  


Front cover of the box

Side cover...

Back cover, featuring Fate together with Nanoha!

After fixing the parts...Ta da! It's done! (sad that the parts fixed cannot be moved...)

 Next, Japanese magazines; コンプエース and Dengeki Maoh!
July 2013 Issue of コンプエース magazine, featuring Nanoha and Stern

Back cover of the magazine

July 2013 issue of Dengeki Maoh, cover page

Back cover of the magazine...

Persona edition magazine! (Was looking forward to Persona 4 manga...Has it ended?-I wonder about that...)

Back cover...


 Lastly, MGLN innocent manga book 1!
Front cover with Nanoha, Fate and Alicia


Back cover with Arisa and Suzuka! (Kinda love their barrier jackets!)

Additional comics...(From my guess, I believed the characters are acting while Lindy is the director or something...)

This came with コンプエース... It's supposing to be a book cover which I think is for MGLN innocent manga book... 

The cover is alot different from the original where this came off a slight feeling of a wallpaper than a cover page...
And that's what I requested from my sister to help me when she was in Japan! Amount of money a lot that I found myself feeling a little guilty... If I was there, I bet I will not buy the figurine...However what's done is done; one should keep looking forward while looking back at mistakes to learn and not feel depressed or anything... Enough about my ramblings then, let's move on to the manga section in which I'll post the chapters as shown above! That's why, don't walk away just yet unless you're not a fan of MGLN...
