List Of Magical Girl Lyrical Nanoha Episodes
This article contains the episode listing for all the animation produced for Magical Girl Lyrical Nanoha. The series consists of three separate seasons, the first two containing thirteen episodes and the third containing twenty-six.
In 2004, the first season under the title Magical Girl Lyrical Nanoha (魔法少女リリカルなのは, Mahō Shōjo Ririkaru Nanoha?) was produced by the Japanese animation studio Seven Arcs containing thirteen episodes which aired between October 1 and December 24. The first season was directed by Akiyuki Shinbo. Seven Arcs would go on to produce the second and third seasons. The main plot for the first season is to give the audience a look into how the Nanoha universe operates and to set up the future relationship between the title character Nanoha Takamachi and the-then main antagonist Fate Testarossa. All of the episode names, except episode thirteen, end in "nano" (なの?), a phrase meaning "it is" or "is it?" and generally considered friendly. This appears to be a play on Nanoha's name. This continues for the first eight episodes of season two, but does not appear after that, and is completely dropped for season three.
In 2005, the second season entitled Magical Girl Lyrical Nanoha A's (魔法少女リリカルなのは エース, Mahō Shōjo Ririkaru Nanoha Ēsu?) aired between October 1 and December 24. The second season was directed by Keizō Kusakawa who would go on to direct the third season. The cast from the previous season returns and new characters are introduced to create a new plotline. A's is set six months after the events of the first season. A new battle system is introduced this season as well as a deeper look into how the Time-Space Administration Bureau operates.
In 2007, the third season with the title Magical Girl Lyrical Nanoha StrikerS (魔法少女リリカルなのはStrikerS, Mahō Shōjo Ririkaru Nanoha Sutoraikāzu?) began airing on April 1 and contained twenty-six episodes. Much of the main cast from the previous two seasons returns and new characters are once again introduced into the story. StrikerS is set ten years after the events of A's.

Famous quotes containing the words list of, list, magical, girl and/or episodes:
“Modern tourist guides have helped raised tourist expectations. And they have provided the natives—from Kaiser Wilhelm down to the villagers of Chichacestenango—with a detailed and itemized list of what is expected of them and when. These are the up-to- date scripts for actors on the tourists’ stage.”
—Daniel J. Boorstin (b. 1914)
“My list of things I never pictured myself saying when I pictured myself as a parent has grown over the years.”
—Polly Berrien Berends (20th century)
“Desire is creation, is the magical element in that process. If there were an instrument by which to measure desire, one could foretell achievement.”
—Willa Cather (1873–1947)
“There are two kinds of fathers in traditional households: the fathers of sons and the fathers of daughters. These two kinds of fathers sometimes co-exist in one and the same man. For instance, Daughter’s Father kisses his little girl goodnight, strokes her hair, hugs her warmly, then goes into the next room where he becomes Son’s Father, who says in a hearty voice, perhaps with a light punch on the boy’s shoulder: “Goodnight, Son, see ya in the morning.””
—Letty Cottin Pogrebin (20th century)
“Twenty or thirty years ago, in the army, we had a lot of obscure adventures, and years later we tell them at parties, and suddenly we realize that those two very difficult years of our lives have become lumped together into a few episodes that have lodged in our memory in a standardized form, and are always told in a standardized way, in the same words. But in fact that lump of memories has nothing whatsoever to do with our experience of those two years in the army and what it has made of us.”
—Václav Havel (b. 1936)
