Well, every ep is pretty much the same.

-Enemy appears.
-Deploy units.
-Exploit weakness.
-Talk more.

That's probably why... Like honestly nothing has move forward aside well for Slaine being more of a jerk.

I've tried on at least 5 different times to watch Strikers, and I have failed every single time, the changes are not what bother me, the time skip is fine by me, the new cast is likeable as well, magic as technology is something I totally dig, and the Bureau has always been a cool aspect of the canon.

But I can't get into the pacing, 6 episodes in nothing noteworthy has happened, the first season introduced Fate early on, A's brought the Belkan Knights to the spotlight even faster, so I can't understand why Strikers has wasted all it's time on nothing but training sequences and fights against gadgets, heck, both ideas sound good on paper, training is something the previous cast never really did, and the gadgets having anti magic is very interesting, but ultiamtely the training is repetitive and boring and the gadgets are nowhere near as dynamic as real foes would be.

6 episodes might sound like nothing, but that's half of either Nanoha or A's, shows that knew where they wanted to go and did so with great pace, Strikers has interesting ideas and the combat style of the new gang is really good, but dang, it is a struggle to watch it.

And while we are at it, on a completely biased note, I am still mad after all these years that Hayate is permanently stuck behind a desk.

I'm in the same boat as you with strickerS

StrikerS... Stickers... StrikerS... Stickers...

Know what? StrikerS might be subpar, but I'd rather take that than Nanoha Stickers.

I've decided I'm going to wait until the season is over before I watch both seasons. This way, if the ending sucks ass, I'm not going to bother.

Gundam Wing 19-21

Is "kill it" Heero's only solution to anything in this show? It's almost funny at this point how predictably grim he is. Oh, and apparently Lady Anne has multiple personalities. I still think Allelujah did it better, but I'll give it time to pan out before any final judgements. I love how the writers can't decide if the dolls are faster than piloted MS or if it depends on the pilot skill. In one scene, Trowa talks about how they have the same specs as a standard grunt, and then minutes later you have Zechs in the Tallgeese (which has been established to be absurdly fast) commenting on how much faster they are.
