I really like Yesy's little wisecracks on the sponsor screen. ^_^
I couldn't really hear what the engine-room computer was saying, but I don't think it sounded like German... And if this is the achy-arthritic-watered-down Vita, she must have been an unholy nightmare in her prime.
IV is a truly astonishing piece of literary achievement. I didn't think it was possible for a character to earn this much hate. And her reactions to the fact that, one, Nanoha had outthought her and two, was just going to take the direct route? Priceless. I'm giggling like a madman. ^_^
And Vivio? Ow. For her sake, just... ow.
The 'ways of mothering' scene makes much more sense, now.
And the thought of what Vivio must be capable of to survive that when she's not even trying to resist is... sobering.
The Strikers riding to the rescue of the Cradle crew is, IMHO, a good payoff for the entire arc of their growing and coming into their own.
But, um, isn't what the Cradle's complaining about that it doesn't have someone with the proper gene code in a place where it can be recognized? And wasn't the entire point of growing Vivio that she'd have that needed gene?
The solution seems fairly obvious, unless my memory is dropping something critical.

"V, did you do something foolish?"
"Yes, and it was glorious."
