MAHOU SHOUJO LYRICAL NANOHA
Alternate Title: Magical Girl Lyrical Nanoha
Story
Number of Episodes: 13Takamachi Nanoha is a 3rd grade elementary school girl that lives with her parents who run a coffee shop, and her elder sister and brother who are in high school and university respectively. Nanoha's regular life changes when she hears a voice calling to her on the way home and ends up rescuing an injured ferret (who is actually a transformed boy called Yuno, an archaeologist from a distant world). She obtains a magical crystal called Raising Heart and gains magical powers.
After their encounter, Nanoha and Yuno have to collect the twenty one "Jewel Seeds" powerful lost crystals from Yuno's world that grant wishes and are very dangerous when misused. However, Nanoha and Yuno are not the only ones after the Jewel Seeds. So is Fate Testarossa, a foreign girl with sad eyes...
Characters
Takamachi Nanoha: A sweet grade three student feels that, though she plays a good supporting role in others' lives, unlike the rest of her family and friends, she has no closest friend to turn to and no direction in her own life. However, when she meets Yuno and discovers her strong aptitude for magic, Nanoha activates Raising Heart out of a magical crystal that Yuno was carrying and wholeheartedly carries out her search for the Jewel Seeds. She's slightly dense and much too trusting, but has a tremendous insight that leads her to reach out to Fate.
Fate Testarossa: Abused by her ruthless mother, Fate regardless remains blindly and unquestioningly loyal to her mother and carries out her search for the Jewel Seeds. When this search leads her to cross Nanoha, she scorns the naivete of her rival and strikes out against her. However, as Nanoha persists to try to learn her motivation and become her friend, Fate is faced with a shocking truth from everyone around her and must decide what to do with it.
Yuuno Scrya: A magic-user from Midchilda, and is the same age as Nanoha. Despite his young age, he worked as an archaeologist and discovered a set of ancient and powerful artifacts known as the Jewel Seeds. When the Time-Space Administration Bureau lost the Jewel Seeds, Yuno went to Earth to track them down; whilst fleeing from monsters, he was injured and transformed himself into a ferret. He acts as Nanoha's familiar, though his true form is that of a regular human being and she did not create him.
Arf: Fate's outspoken dog-woman familiar. She hated Fate’s mother for being so cruel to her master, but she cannot do anything to protect Fate from Precia. Arf instead takes out her anger on her enemies. She is very kind to Fate and rather protective of her.
Precia Testarossa: A mage residing in the Garden of Time. She went insane when her daughter Alicia died. She instructs her daughter Fate to find the Jewel Seeds and beats her ruthlessly when she does not do enough to satisfy her. Precia desperately wants the Jewel Seeds to revive Alicia, to the point that she will not hesitate to remove any obstacles. She was kind and stable once upon a time, but any trace of that is long gone.
Chrono Harlaown: A 14-year-old Bureau officer who takes his job very seriously, which often puts him in awkward moments with his mother, the commanding officer of the Asura, and with Amy Limietta, both of whom are more light-hearted in nature. He is highly disciplined in the art of magic, and his experience and training will often make up for his relative lack of magical power in combat. Because of this, he generally frowns at using more power than necessary to stop an opponent. Nevertheless, he is impressed with both Fate and Nanoha's magical prowess. He does have a rather dry sense of humor, however, as he often comments on Yuno's ferret form.
Lindy Harlaown: The kind-spirited captain of the spaceship Asura and Chrono’s mother works for the Time-Space Administration Bureau. She enjoys drinking green tea with sugar, and sometimes cream added, which is ironic given her appreciation of Japanese culture.
Amy Limietta: A good friend of Chrono and Lindy, who also works on the Asura. She is an officer cadet, often tasked with research and intelligence gathering, which are apparently her specialties.
Alisa Bannings: An outspoken, dog-lover and multimillionaire heiress. She gets angry at Nanoha for keeping secrets from her friends, despite this; she cares deeply for her friend. When she has bursts of rage at not fully understanding what's going on, Suzuka is usually there to calm her down. Alisa is proficient with English and loves dogs, owning about ten at her large mansion. Alisa found an injuried Arf and took her to be treated in her house under the assumption that the familiar was just a big dog.
Suzuka Tsukimura: Suzuka is a grade three student in the same class as Nanoha and Alisa, and already sure what she wants to do with her life: continue on her family tradition of rich, successful engineers. She lives in a huge mansion with her maids Noel and Farin K. Ehrlichkeit, sister Shinobu and many cats. As a small child, she was bullied by the more aggressive Alisa, but Nanoha stood up to Alisa and the trio became friends. When Alisa strikes out at Nanoha and stops speaking to her because she can tell that Nanoha has been keeping secrets, Suzuka stays with Alisa and slowly but eventually changes the other girl's mind so they reconcile again.Gallery

INNOCENT STARTER
hiza wo kakaete heya no katasumi
