Lookin' pretty badass there, Touma.

Oh, Nanoha-chan!

Nanoha! It's Nanoha!

Now that that's out of the way, it seems that Touma is Subaru's and Teana's Erio. Squall and his merry gang, who seemingly destroyed Touma's hometown, are out to kick some ass. Touma wants revenge. Hmmmm where you do think they're going with this?

Teana and Subaru again? They and so already are in "Vivid". Where is my Vita? And need moar Fate and White Devil!

>Where is my Vita?

She's been there all the time. But she's so small you can't see her -- she's under the bottom of the frame.

New villains in a row. I really like goggles at the moment. Spunky attitude, long hair, rough jacket, midriff and of course goggles.

They again will appear good and will survive. Grief.
And again loli in my MSLN!

from what Nanoha said, she referred to Touma as "a little brother" to Subaru.

Hayate is now officially a hottie. strange how an increase of length in hair has instantly shot her up to #3 in my favorite characters of Nanoha. Nanoha at 25 is still hot as ever too. i love this series (* ^ _ ^ *)

what i'm really curious about is the conversation in the top right panel of the image attached. seems like Subaru was asking Nanoha about about how the "new equipment" felt with Nanoha responding saying it's ok but with issues like size and something else i can't translate. then she and Vita need to take data of it on field training. i wonder what these new equipment may be. maybe new barrier jackets again? i miss the first barrier jacket of Nanoha in Strikers (Aggresor Mode/Sacred Mode <--- from booklet).

Probably just some prototype device. In the StrikerS manga Nanoha explained that one of the jobs of a combat instrustor is testing out such things.

Heh, /u/ is already calling them the next "Takamachi family".

Damn, look at that gun.

Fast scans are faaaast

The whole gang getting back together again? NOW I'm interested. Can't wait for epic befriending. ^.^

>>13

Don't you mean toasting Tomua's sorry butt becasue he's a guy? lol j/k

Still I wonder what kind of "new" equipment has Nanoha got this time... I'm pictureing RH becoming more bigger... or a mech, take your pick people!

>>13
Yep. You can be sure that the girls depicted in >>8 will be Nanoha's friends by the end of Force (i.e. around January 2038).

>the end of Force (i.e. around January 2038).

If we're lucky.

At least it's going monthly after the next issue, so we won't need to wait as long.

orz.....thanks for dashing my hopes of a new design for them or their devices.

any bets for an anime adaptation of Force? that would be weird. maybe depending on the sales of Force and Vivid, they'll animate them in some way like OVAs......packaged with later volumes of course cuz you know, that's the "in" thing to do with manga lately (To Love Ru, Tsubasa Resevoir Chronicles, Mahou Sensei Negima, etc.)

First week sales:

34,545 Magical Girl Lyrical Nanoha ViVid vol.1

56,613 Mahou Senki Lyrical Nanoha Force vol.1

Remember in the beginning when people were saying how Vivid was awesome and Force was shit? Yeah...

>>18
Vivid is a mild success, with 34000 people who bought it.
OTOH, Force is a disastrous failure, with about 6 billion people who didn't buy it!

>>18
correction, it should be 34,546 and 56,614.......because mine are coming in late ( ^ _ ^ )
