wow, i was not expecting any of those events to occur. and this is the first time that it looks like someone really died compared to the "severely injured" incidents.

and whaddaya know, looks like Nanoha's Strike Cannon isn't a "what if device that will never show" as you can see it in this chapter. even Touma's entry in NEXT showed up in this chapter. guess that means Subaru's Sword Breaker is just as real too.

Somebody's gonna get befriended hard. :D

I can't wait to see how their new weapons will come into play.

Next chapter: Gunsgunsguns

Looks like we're being set up for a great big befriending. Touma's gonna get befriended by Subaru...er, again. I can't wait to see how they're going to outdo Strike Stars with Strike Cannon.

not only that, but it seems that other people other than Nanoha has their own AEC (whatever that stands for) equipment including Signum who didn't have it with her before she was shot down.

AEC could stand for "Anti-EClipse", seeing as it seems to refer to the gear that has been developed specifically for countering Eclipse-like antimagic effects.

A summary of AEC gear we've seen so far:

• Force NEXT Design 01: CW-AEC02X; Nanoha's Strike Cannon. Vita apparently also has one, but she doesn't use it since Nanoha's the only one who is fast enough and strong enough to wield it.
• Force NEXT Design 02: CW-AECX07X; Subaru's Sword Breaker. No information on what it does as yet, except that it is described as "Defence equipment for Melee Combat users".
• Nanoha's 00; not described in Force NEXT, so no idea what this one is.
• Vita's 02; no info on this except that Vita has it.
• Signum's unnumbered new kit; nothing on this except that it's not ready for deployment. Two-handed flaming chainsword would be nice... /wishful_thinking

Anyways, can't wait to see what happens next.
