Im calling it now, Niji is gonna write Azuki into her story as an antagonist and make her out to be a predator somehow.... infact, gender being wrong aside, shes already in the process of doing it!

Not yet but

Shes also gonna be crashing so hard real soon and its gonna be full of yikes.

Correct!

4 girls

relatively normal fetishist
needs therapy
needs more therapy
needs a restraining order

In order of listing:

Remu
Meguru
Azuki
Niji

I'm still leaning toward Meguru being "more therapy". Though she may be about to traumatize Azuki again.

Niji may graduate from "restraining order" to "straitjacket".

The Web tells me there actually is Biological Clock Day but it's April 28, not March 31.

Surprised no one here complained about the college/middle schooler relationship.

I wonder how mom's gonna react to finding out her teenage daughter let a random adult woman move in with her

Well, mom is barely in the picture. Dunno if it's "sick, in the hospital" or "working at distance" or "dead, to be visited in a cemetery.

Yeah, there's a difference between "we've seen Mai and she lacks chemistry" and "Mai hasn't had a chance yet".

did you actually translate and typeset a geology lesson from the original manga, or drop in something in place of some science notes in Japanese?

(geology major asking)

Exact same geology lesson as the original raws. I translated it word for word apart from the mnemonic (Gave Bad Grand Violin Player Rough Dice Again) which followed the same principle of taking syllables from each term.

Wow, amazing job then! Including deciphering those kitchen-scratch handwritten kanji, or so it looks to me.

Saw the title, was kind of expecting NanoFate.

Can we personally request Uber for a lesbian taxi driver?

No, you have to call Lyft for that.

Does Takara not make enough to support a roommate? Don't actually remember what her job is.

Therapy is stigmatized in Japan, and Japanese women are less likely than men to try to use it (contrary to Western pattern), so guess they'll have to work on their problems the old-fashioned way.

Mai hasn't been around long enough to show chemistry with Asumi.

Did Mitsuki leave? I took the panel as Mitsuki putting on her music for Aya, maybe.

“—After that…As if running away, I rushed out of the classroom, leaving her behind.”

I’m not sure if the pun works in the original Japanese, but it’s awesome in English.

The NanoFate page has the extended version: http://nanofate.us/content/lovely-motion-theatre-wings-omnibus-18

Dead site. :(

Odd little story. The focus on school theater made me think it was a mundane AU, but then Hayate turned out to have used telepathy. I'm also not sure if Nanoha used magic to undo Fate's hairdo.

Also, I'm not sure what Nanoha was angsting out about, since they seemed to be already a couple.

So standard universe, but unusual school activities focus, and dorky shy Nanoha.

i don't get what the hand thing in the ch7 afternote is supposed to be saying. i tried doing the pressing fingers together thing and nothing happened... what was it supposed to be...

Put your hands as shown. Then try separating your thumbs. Or your index fingers. Or your pinkies. Those should all be easy. But your ring fingers? Well, I can't. It's not that something happens, it's that you can't lift your ring fingers apart.

Height gap

This was the first time I noticed their height difference. I had assumed they were around the same height.

That's because they've been repeatedly drawn as the same height. This is the most obvious one

The mannequin is taller, but the mannequin isn't an accurate copy.

Also keep in mind that Fate's early childhood never existed, and she was created at roughly the same apparent age as Alicia was when she died. So when she met Nanoha, I'd be surprised if she'd even existed for more than a year or so.

When she met Nanoha, I believe Fate had existed for four years, with accelerated growth and copied memories backdating her to be like a 9 year old.

she was a still bit uncertain about her own opinions and latched onto Nanoha for her own viewpoint.

Plausible!

I could also see adults around them worrying if Fate really loved Nanoha above all others, or was clinging to her 'rescuer' without growing.

Whenever I read a nanoha doujin set in high school I can't help but think the real reason there wasn't a anime for their high school years was that they couldn't keep nanoha and fate's relationship ambiguous while they were still horny teenagers.

Heh!

well, in 2025, DeepL says this

I'm just worried that some people will be offended by the appearance of Yuno or say it's a minefield... I'd appreciate it if you could just let it go... Don't worry, Yuno will be rejected!

It may not be very responsible from their parents to let them stay alone in such a secluded place at such a young age, but if it's for the sake of Nanoha and Fate having a romantic honey moon it's all fine.

They're the most dangerous beings on the planet outside House Yagami and maybe House Graham.

And they can't get each other pregnant.

:D

Imagine the jealousy when they realize Hayate is the mistress of her own home and can do whatever she wants, whenever she wants.

Hmm. More comedic version, Hayate opens a love hotel for her friends. "No interruptions, guaranteed!"

Mixed bags. Some really funny ones, some just cruel (usually to Fate)

Well, given that they only seem to use one bed even with Hayate in their hotel room implies that Fate got over that shyness. That said, Midchildan beds sure are big; I think their bed in their RF6 apartment is around Wyoming King size (7'x7' or 213cm per side) but the post-Airport-fire hotel bed was more like an Alaskan King size (9'x9'/274 cm x 274 cm).

(This post sponsored by the Beds Named After Western States Commission.)

Hayate has a big family, she makes sure to get the biggest beds.
