I mean, there are a lot of cool scenes in the OP that we've yet to see...enough of this training crap >.> Yea, StrikerS has been pretty disappointing, but I think it will pick up during the second half.

The animation seems to get handed to the B-team every other episode. @Ivy: My objections to the character development was mostly in <i>how</i> they went about doing it. Teana got blasted, okay. She had a heart-to-heart with Nanoha, okay. Cheesy, but technically plausible. Subaru, who saw her idol blast her best friend and partner while being bound and told to "watch this", was barely touched upon in episode 9, and by the end of it, apparently forgave Nanoha for the apparent "betrayal"... and the show did not give us her own reconciliation scene. It's a loose end which got handwaved away; if time constraints (after the slow pacing of the episodes, no less) were the problem, then don't linger so much on Subaru's anger in episode 8 in the first place. Hence, Out Of Character, or Bad Storytelling. @Danny Choo: We've had it in the first two seasons, so this was not unexpected. The animation seems to get handed to the B-team every other episode.

I found those three episodes better than what came before it. I mean sure its more training episodes but with an actual backbone and some character development. How they ended it might've seemed cheesy, atleast now we have a better understanding of some of the characters. Oh and I can see the animation and art quality improving. Episode 5 started this trend of better graphic quality overall. *Note: The fight scene at the end of episode 8 was excellent and I loved Nanoha's disappointed look, it was such a perfect scene with the music and dialogue. Arguably one of the highlights of StrikerS. I'll have to disagree with you. I found those three episodes better than what came before it.
