M19+20
Had been waiting for the Kara no Kyoukai OSTs to appear on Amazon.jp for ages. I might as well have been waiting for Godot. Only recently slowpoke.jpg realized, via canta per me, that the OSTs were only available with the DVDs.
I've bought Limited Edition DVDs before but this is the first time that I wanted the extra more than the DVD itself (my favourite so far is Paradox Spiral); I really enjoy the above-mentioned (post title) track so much - it's the BGM for the kick-off for the Shiki vs Fujino battle on the bridge and it's been replaying endlessly on my Winamp.
Lyrical Nanoha StrikerS Sound Stage 4 – Episode 27
1. Fate's mail. Introduction by Fate, situating the events of SS04 as the follow-up to events (Relic and Jail Scaglieti incidents) after Episode 26 of the anime. Like Sound Stage 3, it is consistent with the anime and adds just a bit more information to it.
2. November Riot Force Six. End of newbie training session by Nanoha and Vita. Former tells them to prepare for night training simulation while latter comments that they still have a way to go. Signum remarks that the trainers are hard on the rookies as always. Shamal says that Zafira is back in the hospital, resting. Vice goes to visit Zafira. Some kids are fussing over the big dog-wolf.
Lyrical Nanoha StrikerS Sound Stage 03: Episode 18.5
One of the things that I enjoy about the Nanoha franchise is how the supporting merchandise ties in with the main storyline in the anime. While I didn't need them to understand the anime, the manga inserts in MEGAMI as well as the MEGAMI Sound Stage injected lots of interesting details into the Nanoha universe. As with the first and second seasons, Sound Stage drama CDs are a mainstay of such tie-in/supporting goods. See Kurogane for summaries of the first and second StrikerS Sound Stage. For Sound Stage 03, there was a disappointing lack of Nanoha x Fate love-love subtext but at least there was a fun Subaru x Teana exchange:
FMZ! The Second Raid on Akiba
The Nanoha Mobile!!! Parked along the road on the right of the overhead rail when crossing from Gamers side.
Nanoha A's Sound Stage 03
1. Spring is here Fate and Nanoha chat about how they've been busy with school and TSAB training since last Christmas. Wonderful lines from Nanoha about how she's happy when she's with Fate and from Fate about how her heart is strongly (something... happy?) when she's with Nanoha.
2. Later with the Yagami Family Dr Ishida tells Hayate that she is making great progress in her rehabilitation. Signum and Shamal take their leave of Admiral Leti, they've been discussing the knights' incorporation into the Armed Bureau. The former two gossip about a possible rival scene between Nanoha and Vita, Shamal teases Signum about the same with respect to Testarossa. Zafira in puppy mode is being fought over by girls squealing about how cute this mixed breed is while Vita gloats.
3. Cherry blossom viewing? Nanoha, Arisa and Suzuka explain to Fate what a hanami session is and plan a session for Saturday, inviting friends and family.
