Mahou Shoujo Lyrical Nanoha 3

  
  

Being a magical girl is tough, ain't it? After sealing her fifth Jewel Seed Nanoha decides to take a little break and goes with Suzuka and Arisa to cheer on the soccer team that her father coaches. Afterwards, at Midoriya (the shop that Nanoha's parents run), as Nanoha sits with Suzuka and Arisa (and as they have fun with Yuno) a boy on the soccer team passes by with a girl.. he's holding a Jewel Seed. Nanoha senses it, but thinks that it's just her imagination. So Suzuka and Arisa go on and Nanoha goes back home to rest. Yuno had a very dangerous moment there ;)

The boy gives the Jewel Seed to the girl and as she takes it, it activates. Nanoha senses it and goes off to investigate.. this time we get the full transformation sequence, btw... but huge trees have already covered the city... she doesn't know what to do. Yuno says to look for the source, and using Raging Heart's search feature (that's useful to have) finds it. And then Raging Heart changes into a ranged weapon and Nanoha seals the Jewel Seed...

But none of this would've happened if she had realized that the boy had that Jewel Seed and done something right then. She says it's her first failure as a magical girl... and she resolves to never let that happen again.

So we've gotten our episode dealing with our magical girl's first "failure", as Nanoha calls it over with. Still quite fun to watch, though not as happy, 'cept for Yuno's close one ;) But I'm really looking forward to next time. One word: "Yay!". It's about time Nanoha's rival showed up ;)

Hopefully, all of you out there will be able to start watching Nanoha soon.
