It's delayed reaction time!
1 - Sounds like you're agreeing with me here. '.'
2 - Yeah. I don't remember if it's something I've mentioned, or seen someone else mentioned, or hasn't been mentioned at all, but it seems like part of the problem was that most of what they were doing wasn't really explained, they were just doing it. It wasn't always clear what things were supposed to accomplish or lead to. Need course syllabus!
Giving them the lecture on the importance of getting enough sleep earlier would probably also have been a good idea...
3 - Actually seems quite odd when juxtaposed with 2. '.'
4 - I think a big part of my problem with this approach is that she's obviously not in her right mind at the moment. Really, according to some translated material or other I read, the attack Tea starts there is a *sniper* attack. Not something a person who's thinking clearly would even consider using up close except under highly unusual circumstances.
Well, that and Nanoha's face reminds me of Mean Nanoha. >.>
Anyway, I think letting her wear herself out or having something distract her would have worked better. '.'
5 - At this distance from originally watching the episodes, don't have much to say about this... Though I'm not sure I ever had much opinion of it other than "That... really didn't help."
Were those two things known at that point?
And here's the part where I disagree a lot. I was fairly impressed with her plan. Only at the end was Nanoha sure exactly what was going on. That's *fantastic*. Also, unless it's energy expenditure is through the roof, I have to consider Tea's energy blade trick to be superior to the second form that appears later. (In fact, I'm so impressed by certain aspects of this, one of my characters is getting an ability based on something she does. Well, if that story ever reaches the appropriate point in the timeline. '.' )
And alas, Tea never tries it again. Bleh. You'd think someone would notice the value of an offensive variant of Barrier Burst.
(What I do continue to wonder about is the earlier part where Nanoha says that Subaru is attacking recklessly... because it looks like she's doing the same thing she does in every fight in the entire series...)
And once Nanoha got a better idea what was going on, she handled it very well... I just feel like things could have gone more smoothly for all concerned.
Well, I don't think it's a bad thing, says the person who also makes CoH characters that are h-game references. '.'
-Morgan, has Lucky Star cosplay porn too. Where did this come from? o.O
