Mahou Shoujo Lyrical Nanoha 8
Crono jumps in the middle of Fate and Nanoha's battle to stop it, but Fate won't go along. One of Crono's attacks injures her as she goes to grab the jewel seed so Arf carries her off. Crono, Yuno, and Nanoha go to the Asura to speak with captain Lindy about things. And there... Crono suggests that Yuno turn back into his original from. And Nanoha is just a wee bit surprised (hoeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!) that he's actually a boy. Yuno forgot to mention that ;)
Lindy and Crono explain the power of Lost Logia/Jewel Seeds to Nanoha. And they are pretty powerful things, strong enough to destroy worlds, so the must be collected and put in a place where that can't happen. Lindy gives Nanoha and Yuno a night to think about what they should do next...
Arf tends to Fate's wounds at her skyscraper in the city. Arf is really worried about her and wants her to stop doing things for her mother's sake, but for her own. She can't stand seeing Fate being hurt and sad... but Fate wants to please her mother...
Yuno convinces Lindy to let him and Nanoha help them out in gathering the Lost Logia/Jewel Seeds and informs Nanoha of the decision. Nanoha tells her mother about what's happened so far, and her mother agrees to let her finish what she started with Yuno.
Yuno's little secret finally got out :) Nanoha's "hoe!" (or something that sounded very close to that) when she found that out was very cute. Guess she'll kick him out of the room when she's changing from now on, won't she? Yuno shouldn't have chickened out when he had the chance ;) But all kidding aside, next time Fate and Nanoha look to go at it again in a decisive battle. Looking forward to it as always. And if Fate and Nanoha team up after that it'll be even better ;)
Did she really tell her mom EVERYTHING? I thought she said she omitted a lot of the specific details, but maybe I misunderstood.
The Pretty Sammy TV series had a lot of parallels with this (including being another male-oriented mahou shoujo series with mahou shoujo in the title). In it Misa and Sammy collaborate in the ending episodes, so perhaps there's a precedent for Nanoha here(the whole Sammy vs. Misa thing being resolved a good several episodes before a rather surprising twist ending to the series). The situation with the male version of Ryo-ohki was pretty similar too (including the extreme embarrassment when his Juraihelm form is revealed), though much later in the storyline.
