Nanoha takes some time out for some seaside relaxation

I've never made my love of Nanoha any small secret, particularly the more recent parts of the story. It's not often you see a show where characters actually age, and I'm a huge fan of seeing the girls growing up and getting even more badass than they already are. Therefore, I have to agree with our original sentiments that it's nice to see some companies haven't forgotten about said timeline despite all of the loli releases.

I'm also inclined to agree that while any Nanoha is a good Nanoha, the fullness of her figure is really a nice change, and I'm loving those curves! Her swimsuit itself is both classy and quite sexy, and Alter's really captured her calm personality in the pose and expression, as well. 

We brought you word of pre-orders a little while ago, but grab a look at this gallery in the meantime. All it does is make me want the eventual Fate even more!
