There's something amusing how immensely SHOUNEN this promo is. Laughing

Now one wonders if ViVid Strike will get a simulcast or fall into the same fate as the last one.

Well, yeah. This trailer totally not show even a bit of mahou shoujo at all, and only the Eins, Vivio (now with not hydrocephalic looks - shame on you, character designer of ViVid!) and Nove presence show that this is the ViVid spin-off for sure.

I'm not complaining, but why are we getting this before a 2nd season of ViVid?

Correction: I just found out that ViVid has a 2nd season confirmed for 2017.

Good to see Vivio and Einhart with animated with a decent character design. As much as I like the ViVid manga, the animation quality disappointed me a lot.

Not the same team. And yeah, screw the A-1 abomination based on ViVid.

Given the apparently darker tone and new characters coming in, I can hear the "It's Vivid's Force!" comments already. Though it probably won't be as hated as Force was since the lead isn't a guy.

But yeah, with Vivio, Einhart, and Nove in the trailer and Miura in the promo image, pretty safe to say this is a sequel to Vivid. Unless we got some My Otome level look-a-likes going on here.

Wasn't a bad PV. Certainly better production values than with A1.

The only thing that strikes me as rather odd werde those biker gangs. I know there is always a darker side to society, but to me it seems rather unfitting and anachronistic for the high-tech society of Midchilda.

So weird to hear Yui singing without Kaori.

Well, I actually really like magical girl shows that feature more punching/kicking than beamspam. It's one of the reasons I quite liked Futari wa Pretty Cure (though I fell out of the franchise after the first series). I'll just have to think of this as a brand new IP and not in any way related to Nanoha.

To be fair, she has solo-ed several times in the past, and this one in particular sounds almost exactly like the ED to Campione.

No instances of magic battles yet...
This should be an interesting development. Smile

I think it looks more like a side-show than a sequel...

Does it take place on Midchilda? I kind of assume it's on Earth. Midchilda shouldn't have guns/ kinetic weapons

As much as I really wanted a season two of Vivid, the third movie, the continuation of Force (Yes I am one of the five people that liked Force) or The west to finally release the blurays of the entire Nanoha series, I can be content with Magical Lyrical Bancho Bashing. So I'm super psyched about this and I hope it does well.
