Official Report

Magical Girl Lyrical Nanoha" is a very popular anime series that has been broadcast on TV since 2004. The film attracted a lot of attention because it was a completely new work.

On May 13, the event "Lyrical☆Party VI" was held at Musashino no Mori Sports Plaza. The event was attended by Yukari Tamura (playing Nanoha Takamachi), Nana Mizuki (playing Fate T. Harlaown), Kana Ueda (playing Hayate Yagami), Haruka Tomatsu (playing Amitié Florian), Satomi Sato (playing Kirie Florian), Yoko Hikasa (playing Iris), Kari Shimizu (playing Signum), Asami Sanada ( The event featured 11 members of the splendid cast, including Asami Sanada (Vita), Ryoka Yuzuki (Shamal), Kazuya Ichijo (Zafira), and Mikako Takahashi (Crono Harlaown).

In the first half, teams competed against each other in various games, such as the body clock game in which the players had to stop the video in exactly 30 seconds, in which they all tried to interrupt the challengers; Tamura-san and Mizuki-san's never-before-seen game of rock-paper-scissors-scissors, in which both players got zero points; and the drawing message game in which the players' phones turned into dogs and the players had to draw a message on the other end of the screen. The audience laughed out loud when the drawing game of "drawing messages" turned out to be wrong, with the cell phone turning into a dog and beams coming out of Nanoha's eyes.

In a corner titled "Lyrical☆Ranking," Shuhei Shimada, a popular palm reader, appeared on stage. He read the palms of the performers and asked questions such as, "Who seems to have good luck with money? Who is likely to win the world? and "Who is likely to win the world? The theme was "Who is the wonder girl who is out of sync with her surroundings?" Tomatsu-san, who has almost no brain lines, came in first place. The audience was very excited by the result.

In the shuffle dubbing session that followed, both teams tried their own unique arrangements, but the team led by Mizuki used material from "POPTEPIC," which again drew a lot of laughter from the audience.

The live corner began. Mizuki performed five songs including "Destiny's Prelude," the theme song of "Reflection," and "Pray," an insert song of "StrikerS," while Tamura sang "Spiritual Garden," the ED theme of "A's," and "Shinsei," an insert song of "Reflection. Reflection" and "Midsummer Honey Days" (Nanoha Takamachi). Of course, the audience was on their feet and cheered loudly for the two.

The event came to a quick end, but then a new video for "Detonation" was shown. The second advance ticket with a bonus clear file will be on sale at theaters from May 18 (Fri.), so be sure to check it out.

After the event, new visuals, stories, and character setting drawings of "Detonation" will be released on the official website. A list of 90 theaters nationwide was also released.
We can't wait to see how the story that continues from "Reflection" will end and what the meaning of "Detonation" = "detonation" will be.
