Vivid Strike is to air in less than a few weeks and we still know absolutely nothing about it.

Either ways, Never give up

I hope it has some Subaru in it.

A Nove is fine too.

>>146022016

I know its not nanoha fate and hayate in high school SoL while also living a double life as space magical girls and therefore I'm not hyped on it.

The franchise got fucked into the ground.
>>
>>146022491
Nove is listed as part of the cast, so you will at least see her in it.
>>
>>146022491
Nove is great but Subaru has some advantages.
>>
So like, do you need to watch Strikers for this, because I stopped at A's.
>>
>>146022941
What's strange about it: If the cast list to be believed, none of the A's characters are in it.

All of it is StrikerS and newer characters for reasons that aren't quite revealed (IE: King Records wants a cast purge so they don't have to pay so many VAs)
>>
>>146023026

Really?

Purging Nana is a mistake.

>>146022941

Vivid is about Nanoha's daughter. Whose origin is in Strikers.
>>

The cast list is weirdly short. Which makes some wonder if it's not the cast list for the first episode.

It's pointless when they would just add 20 more characters from some new animal kingdom instead of giving valuable screen time to best girl and the various other likable characters from season 1.

At this point all I really want from Tsuzuki is the final Nanoha movie and for all we know that's never happening

DD threads ruined themselves by not having new content.

S3 Added 5 characters and ignored 60% of the previous cast. Not to mention that the ending was terrible.

Is Force even still considered a real part of the series at this point? People only ever really cared about Vivid anyway which is such an extreme contrast to Force.

See pic for Vivio and Einhard schoolmates - from left to right:
Rio Wesley, from a space chinese martial arts family, surprisingly only second best in the school in PE
Vivio Takamachi, adopted daughter of Nanoha, clone of the last Saint King Olivie, think female King Arthur
Einhart Stratos, martial arts nut with memories of one of the rulers contemporary to Olivie
Corona Timil, one of the brightest childs in Vivio's school, specializes in unusual magic
Yumina Enclave, Einhart's class mate, typical case of "we don't have enough characters, let's add some others" in the later part of the manga.
>>
>>146028251
Watch in release order, including the first season even though you've already seen the movie (it's been quite a number of years anyway).
A's and StrikerS are wild rides, make sure you buckle up. If anything is disposable it's ViVid, but I enjoyed it as a Nanoha fan and by the time you're up to that point you'll probably want to just continue through with the series anyway.

No one knows what it is, but it definitely isn't a sequel since that would require Vivid to have already ended. So it remains a mystery as to how Vivio-tachi are going to fit whatever happens into their busy schedule of inconsequential tournaments. Probably more time traveling and memory wipes.

For me Tsuzuki forgot what made Nanoha anime great and instead gone with new character spam no one cares about.

Looking at poor DogDays in newest season he once again did the same shit with another franchise.

I doubt Vivid Strike reset as a try to create new pair of younger MCs as franchise leaders in pseudo BFF/gf relationship with support of Vivio and Einhart as their senpais or maybe mentors or even "mothers"(if this will take place in some future NanoFate retired to Earth or are dead) will work once again.

Nope. Entirely new series. At the point ViVid S1 ended there was no character like the one on the promo art in sight at least for another 5 or 6 arcs.

If this is ViVid related it will ignire the rest of the manga for sure which could actually be a good thing. After the Fabia battle in the library the manga goes downhill.

You answered your own statement.

And besides. Those other shonen also have badass cool females. There's no harm in having dudes doing cool stuff in Nanoha.

The fandom also generally agree Chrono and Zest are really cool characters and others like Zafira and Vice are nice to have as well.
>>
I'm still optimistic about Vivid Strike, since it's going back to its anime original roots, as opposed to being an adaptation.
>>
>>146046015
Cool, go watch shonen then, I got bored of that genre and I don't need more shonen tropes infesting seinen anime.

>The fandom also generally agree Chrono and Zest are really cool characters and others like Zafira and Vice are nice to have as well.
They were fine in what they did but that's it, we all know none of them would even reach top 100 in a popularity.

Not anymore.
>>
>>146046285

Yunno actually made it 13th half into ViVid out ranking several fan favourite girls.

Also is not about popularity. As you said. They come, do cool stuff and then go to do their own thing until they come back sone time later. And you know? It's nice to have those cameis from old beloved characters from time to time. I love Nanoha and i love the uber powerful gals (Signum forever) but tgat doesn't meant i can't get hyped up about other cool characters as well. Even if they're guys. It's like saying girls have no place in One Piece just because MC is male and we know there's a ton of cool gals there.

Everything past A's was a mistake. I don't even know who any of these fuckers are anymore.

Nanoha is clearly the husband figure of the relationship, and I don't get how anyone could ever think otherwise.
>>
>>146046689
That's why Vivid Strike is a clean slate. This new story won't care about anything Nanoha.

I've never read Force because I didn't get into Nanoha until it was on haitus, But I played GoD due to my extreme love of Hayate and the fact she has a bigger role in the games than she does in StrikerS, and Tohma and Lily seemed fine in that. What makes them so much worse in their own series than their appearance in the game?
>>
>>146046641
That was a one chapter/volume spike and was for who was the most important male character from the series, those other cooler characters that you mentioned weren't as important or as popular, and neither of them is even close to most of the good girls in popularity.
>>
>>146047188
>demotivational poster
Damn that's old.
>>
>>146047226
In the game Tohma is already more or less adjusted to his circumstances and his role is more proactive.

He actually started interesting in FORCE but then became an overpowered edgy McGuffin for a full year of chapters abd after all tgat hype he never did anything relevant and got his suppossedly powerfull ass handed to him by a goofy villain even after he essentially defeated an upgraded Nanoha and took the combined efforts of 4 powerhouses to take down. Oh and his morality is all over the place, trying to make friends with the guys who had been salughtering the people looking up for him. Kind of an edgy shitty written version of Steven Universe.

Tohma had an interesting concept and potential as a character but he was wasted by bad writting.
>>
>>146047321
Because they're not mains. If they lack exposure its obvious they won't be as renowed. But the fandom generally agree they're cool characters and is nice to see them when the occasion comes. The likes of Chrono and Zest have small but consistent fandoms and are overall well received. Don't know what popularity have to do with this. Cool male characters can exist in Nanoha without problem, that's the point.
>>

>Tohma had an interesting concept and potential as a character but he was wasted by bad writting.
Sad truth is if he was a female tomboy to be paired with Lily Force would be as popular as Vivid got to sell around 80k per volume than have that dimnishing number to 30k till the hiatus struck with another retelling of S1.
Papercut Final Fantasy tier villains or boring Grendels didn't help either.

Strong point of Nanoha first and A's seasons were the antagonists which made viewers care, StrikerS with laughable evil scientist Jail killed that hype with too many Numbers to care about.
>>
>>146047987
>The likes of Chrono and Zest have small but consistent fandoms
They're less than small, the both of them probably have gotten less than 10 dedicated fanarts in the last 2 years.

> Cool male characters can exist in Nanoha without problem, that's the point.
But nobody care for them, that's the point, people is watching this series mostly for the badass girls.
>>
>>146047987
>The likes of Chrono and Zest have small but consistent fandoms and are overall well received.
You're joking?
The only role Chrono has left in japanese Nanoha fandom is to be a self-insert dick and either rape Fate as older brother figure or rape Lindy as his mother in adult doujins, Zest or Zafira are even forgotten in that.
>>
>>146048293
>But nobody care for them
That's a bold statement.

>People is watching this series mostly for the badass girls.
People watch the series for badass characters, it's all about exposure. People care for the guys when they appear and are written well but its the author's choice to give focus to the girls. Nobody thinks often about Tien bevause he rarely does anything but the moment he stalled Cell (didn't even win, just stalled) everyone rooted for him. Nobody thinks about Zest now but i assure you if he appeared now and do something badass everyone would be wetting themselves in excitement.

Nobody was pissed Vita and Signum were defeated by a man. They were excited about this badass as fuck character that shaken the status quo and seened to fight for a significant motive.

As shitty as FORCE was. Characters like Veyron and Hades raised expectation and even some awe and Kurt also had nice reception. A character have more to them than just the thing inside its pants.

It's also about works of fiction in general. Not just Nanoha. A well made character trascends the barriers of its gender. Nanoha herself is a great example. She would be just as awesome if she had balls.

I actually liked them a lot they were pretty refreshing for FORCE and the franchise as a whole. Kurt was an amusing character, he's a real goofball but also seemed a bit smarter than his behavior suggest, Mariya, Quinn and Lolo are also pretty interesting. Definetely would've liked to see what's their journey in the middle of everything occurring during FORCE.

>>146049487
>A well made character trascends the barriers of its gender.
That doesn't mean you have to make the character male, there is no point in shoehorning more than the strict minimum amount of male characters in this kind of series.

>Nanoha herself is a great example. She would be just as awesome if she had balls.
I can say with confidence that if either Nanoha or Fate were male this series wouldn't have been popular enough to get more than one season.
>>
>>146049783
>That doesn't mean you have to make the character male
Doesn't mean it has to be female either.

And i'm confide.t the show would've lasted at least two awesome seasons which looking at the current state of the franchise it might be even for the greater good. At some point they stopped writting characters and just started wrotting hollow eyecandy to fap and while that was always a thing it wasn't the main goal. Yuri/Loli focus killed the franchise. Make them all girls for all i care but make them walk epic journeys instead of just giving puppy eyes and ship between themselves. I felt bad the moment i fell asleep reading ViVid. I shouldn't fall asleep reading something Nanoha related.

The show itself seems to disagree with you, given that every installment except Vivid introduced at least one new male character.
Vivid may have as well, I just can't remember off the top of my head.
>>
>>146050056
>Doesn't mean it has to be female either.
Yes it does, because it's what the series is marketed as and what the fans want to see. We're not talking about a potential new character in a non specific piece of literature, in which case you're completely right, we're specifically talking about the Nanoha series.

>>146050309
That's what the author considers the minimum then, and Vivid does have a few male characters too to keep the ratio at about the same as the previous season, the difference is that with each new installment each male character has less screen time. Force apparently was the exception to all this.

I developed sort of a Stockholm Symdrome for them. Specially Cypha. I hated and suffered because of them for so long that when they suddenly dissapeared i started to miss them.

No it didn't. It works fine as a side story / SOL companion piece. The problem is the lack of a main story for it to go along with. They needed to have a series focusing on the main cast and wit h a serious plot (that wasn't garbage like Force) running alongside.

They should have stepped up their game when they decided to rely on ViVid, then. It wasn't exactly difficult they already had some juicy stuff going on.but for some reason they went even more pointless than ever before and ViVid became barely more than fluff filler with very little moments of actual progression. It was sort of entertaining at first but when it became and endless cycle of new loli X doing X cute thing in X new location over and over it was the point of no return.

Say what you want, I'm not about to convince you of anything here.
The anime of Vivid ruined and cut out near all fanservice, even worse than Illya did, and really what with anime not really being accepting of anything lolicon these days, and due to what StrikerS was to Nanoha, I'd say it's obvious they are going to pull it again.
Also the girl they promote it is obviously not a loli either.

That's what i'm talking about. S1 and A's have lolis seen from lewd angles but tgey themselves were never lewd. Compare to stuff like Prisma Ilya where they deliberately indulge in lewd behavior. The loli herself must be keept innocent and decent but you can be creative with scenarios.

The story was fine and the characters were actually workable. Tohma started faorly well. Everything up to Signum getting shanked was pretty good build up.

Tohma and his gang going their own path for a bit longer would've been really interesting. The prospect at seeing the old cast observed from a different perspective was amusing but they plaued too safe.

Tsuzuki had good ideas but hadn't the gut to go all the way with those and thus it felt half-assed.

Touma started a cliche Shounen MC with nothing unique to him and went from bland to boring, The Gerndel's were boring too and the plot was going nowhere fast while the old cast
was either jobbing or being used as a "Look how important Touma is" cheerleading squad.

I feel bad for Tsuzuki. From the content of his interviews around the time FORCE came out it seems he truly put a lot of thought on that story abd felt proud of his job. He was so enthusuastic about the new characters and the challenges for our known heroes.

Probably FORCE flopping was what made him loose interst in the franchise. Everything after the hiatus was only retellings, fanservice pandering without much story and inconsecuential spin offs.

I like Nanoha and all, but I do have some gripes with the series.

Why does all the promotional material make it look like softcore porn? The series isn't even that fanservice heavy. I mean it has some scenes and all but god knows the promotional stuff makes it look like some ecchi harem shit.

Why is the writing so bad? Sometimes I feel like I just want to take the characters out and put them somewhere else where they'd do better.

What the hell happened to that third movie?

Actually, Innocent/InnocentS isn't even Nanoha's show. The guy who makes it is a massive fan of the Material color-swapped characters from the game and mostly writes it with them as the main characters and focus. Those inexplicably identical-looking people are the great sempais that Nanoha, Fate and Hayate look up with awe and will never surpass.

If I was autistic, I think I would really hate that a lot and keep shitposting about it here with the force of you know who.

Is it still yuri if it never comes canon? I'm sick of all this "We're just very good friends" shit, so my new rule is that they really ARE just very good friends no matter how fucking gay they act, unless it's canonically proven they're actually gay.

Don't forget "they are raising an adopted child together which means they're totally married" and "3 hours of personal time means they scissor 3 hours a day".

Well, it's not

Did he ever go and ask ANYONE if they thought this was a good idea? Does he have any editors? Proofreaders? Producers? Anyone he could go and ask if this is a good direction for the franchise?

People like to say "Aw poor Tsuzuki, he would really just like to make Dog Days all the time but he's too busy being chained to Nanoha". No. He did the same thing to Dog Days that he did in Force. Overbloat the cast and try to play off his brand new characters as the best thing ever just to discard them moments later.

He's like a kid playing with his action figures. Every time he gets a new one, that new action figure is now the biggest and bestest and the old ones just have to sit in the toybox or just stand around while the kid pretends that the new action figure is saving the day/destroying the world. This is how he approaches his writing

I think he wanted to make Triangle Hearts from now until forever, but stale harem VNs don't sell, and he really doesn't get the hint yet.
>>
>>146072250
Nanoha is not yuri, it's an action seinen with yuri elements, this combination has acquired some popularity over the years. And there is a difference between a plot element being subtext and it not being canon, most yuri couples in Nanoha are not canon, but Nanoha and Fate have been one for a time.

>>146065227
Tsuzuki seemed to be turning things around by having Riot Force overcome the Huckbein on their own and diminishing Touma's importance, but it was too little too late by then.

Then again, he introduced the useless as shit Grendels at the same time, so it probably wouldn't have been a complete turn around anyway.
>>
>>146074418
>hetfags
I don't think any hetfag could stomach more than the first series.
>>
>>146074471
I'm convinced the only reason that happened is because of the bitching.

Otherwise, the first part of Force would have been the norm all the way through. Maybe even being a catalyst for Nanoha to retire.

Again, I think Tsuzuki really just wants to make more Triangle Hearts. If that was his goal, Thoma would be a good Chrono replacement.
>>
>>146074599
And yet that argument has persisted through StrikerS, through A's, through ViviD, through the Sound Stages, through Force.

Zafira should have been Nanoha's mascot, because at least then he would have been too old for Nanoha

At least Subaru and Teana sleep for a reasonable amount time, but I think this will change once they start permanently sharing a bed too.
>>
>>146076061
>Is it REALLY a single person dwelling?
Who knows, maybe such big rooms are reserved for the top officers, and with Hayate in charge it there shouldn't be a problem to make an exception and let Nanoha and Fate share a single room.

Why was Hayate almost immediately promoted to commander?

>>146076323
The TSAB recognized the effectiveness of Nanoha, Fate, and Hayate as propaganda tools, and moved to insulate them as best as possible.

As soon as they gave it over to Aniplex for managing like so many franchises are randomly and inexplicably doing the writing was on the wall. Strikers didn't help either. It's long past it's prime and into the full on milking whatever fanbase is left stage anyway.

I don't think they were adopted, they just became their guardians (and they don't even call Fate mom), something like getting a kid in your care. Note how they get to keep their second names unlike Vivio/Fate.

Yes, but when you consider that Nanoha doesn't specialise in close combat and can still hold her own against Signum, it's apparent who's more powerful overall.

A Force Anime, edited by a competent writer could really be what saves this franchise. We need another serious show with a real core narrative that can somehow interest new fans, because let's face it, nobody watched Vivid if they'd never heard of Nanoha before.

Signum also found the way to give Nanoha a run for her money eben when the latter had bigger rank, field advantage and was fighting with her upgrades. Signum just had her sword. That tells you about how hardcore she is.

>>146104386
Signum ended up with less clothes and more consciousness. Should have been 2:0 win.

Signum is a very balanced close-mid range fighter, she and Fate are probably the two strongest mages best suited for 1v1 duels.
>>
>>146104386
>and was fighting with her upgrades
Only Blaster level one, when her max is three. If she had been able to go all out, Nanoha would have wiped the floor with Signum. Unless Signum was allowed to Unison with Agito, then it would probably put them back on even footing.

>>
>>146105186
I agree but Blaster-3 is a last resort technique. It hurts Nanoha and RH and is only used for tasks she normally can't accomplish on her own.

With that mentality i assume it was decided Signum won't fuse for the fight. It would be an unfair advantage and Agito probably is also considered a special measure for stuff too difficult for Signum to face alone.

Yeah, that was the shit part about it, that they disposed of Erio and Vita with just some quick "blood explosion, collapses" undetailed shots, instead of them at least putting up a fight, like Signum. Worst part of Force, IMHO.

Is it actually possible for a device to be completely destroyed? So far, regardless of damage, they've been able to either recover on their own or repaired by TSAB engineers.
Do devices work like wands in Harry Potter, in that they 'choose' their owners?

I feel Tsuzuki haven't really explored this and the event someone loses their device.
>>
>>146112344
There hasn't been a case of the main body suffering complete destruction yet. The closest example are Graf Eisen in StrikerS and Laevateinn in FORCE. In the later case Signum lost the blade but managed to keep most of the handle and head intact. The former is more impressive cuz Eisen's head completely broke into pieces but i guess keeping the bar counts as having enough of the device to get it repaired.

It pisses me off every time I have to write "Raising Heart." Raging Heart is so much more fitting. But if I don't use the "official translation," a handful of douches will start calling me a horrible translator.

I hate all official translations. Most of them either sound awful or look misspelled. I don't tell the nips how to do their jobs so I wish they'd return the favor. I've specifically avoided using them whenever they're obscure enough that almost no one knows about them. Like, I don't think I've ever seen anyone spell Precia's name as "Presea," and yet that's official.

I agree with you about the localization, Precia and Presea are both equally valid, and the western fanbase as a whole has decided on Precia, so that's what gets used.

But the Raising/Raging Heaert debate isn't a localization issue. It's not two ways to localize the same word, it's two different words entirely. And the creators have been very clear that the word the meant to use was Rasing. They've changed the way names are localized at times, both Precia and Presea have been used at times, titles, Levi has been called both "the Slasher" and "the Threasher", and fixed mistakes, such as "Load" Dearche being corrected to Lord, yet Raising Heart has remained Raising Heart. That tells me that is is not a mistake, and that people who call it one are just being stubborn.

The show makes clear Nanoha is on the "best of the best" category when it comes to standard magical combat. However its also been shown she isn't perfect and have been bested or in need to go to extreme measures in the past. But for some reason her fans forget that and get pretty sensible when its implied someone even has a chance to scratch her.

The biggest issue I'd see for Nanohaverse is the conceptual effect NPs
>>
>>146117612
Still, they don't give out SS ranks lightly. In fact, both Nanoha and Fate are A+, right?
>>
>>146117880
Nanoha and Fate are all S ranks by StrikerS.
They started out as AAA
>>
>>146117129
She can, but she'd rather befriend them.
>>
>>146117910
Nanoha and Fate are S+
Signum is S
Vita is, I think, AAA+
>>
>>146117910
And Hayate was S in A's and SS in StrikerS
>>
>>146109067
That scene where Vivid fell and Nanoha kept Fate from helping her was pretty funny.

Growing up in a ninja family leaves you with strange expectations for your non-ninja kids.
>>
Are the movies meant to replace the TV series or should I watch the series instead?
>>
>>146117880
Hayate have a composite rank SS meaning she's incredibly outstanding in one aspect that deserves measure and recognition but is still lacking in other key areas.

Hayate is a walking nuke but that's pretty much it. Her overall combat skill is poor and has been stated and proved she's pretty much helpless at close range with or without limiters.

Sonething closer to a true SS rank would be someone live Vivio in full powered Sank Kaiser mode (with the Cradle operating) or Reinforce Eins whe she awakened as the will of the Book of Darkness.

How will Fate respond when Nanoha buys throwing stars for her birthday one year?
>>
>>146118278
Watch the series.
Be sure to also read the manga and listen to the sound stages. That shit is important.
>>
>>146118278
You can watch the 1st move instead if you want, but you do need to watch the series.
>>
>>146118278
The movies are fine but lack details that make confusing the later seasons. It's recommemded to watch S1 abd A's TV regardless.
>>
>>146118278
It's only the the parts before Fate shows up in the 1st season that can be a bit of a drag at first. Afterwards it's a wild ride all the way through A's.
>>
>>146118278
For Season 1, skipping in favour of movie is possible although lazy and seeing both is best. Season 2 ("As") is unskippable, the movie isn't a full recap.

Watch movies 1st, if you like it proceed with movie 2nd, and if you like that enough to make you want to know more details about the story watch the A's animated season. You can try watching Strikers later, it's not to everyone's tastes.

The first animated series has terrible pacing issues and filler problems, and is pretty bellow average as an anime in general, it's better to skip it in favor of the first movie but you can still watch it if you're curious.

Considering she's way above what most Servants have shown; yes, and casually at that.

>there are people right now who expect that this new gig is going to ignite retro /a/ and bring back all the memes and image edits of before

Oh Nanoha fandom, how far you have fallen.
>>
>>146124169
Why are you trying to bring everyone down? We're trying to be optimistic here. We know we're likely going to be disappointed, but for at least a little while, we get to feel like everything will be okay.
>>
>>146124169
it's like two people whining

>>146117657
Not even a problem for her, she can just stab them with RH' pointy end.

The pointy end is also magic.
This would probably work though: http://nanoha.wikia.com/wiki/Stardust_Fall
>>
>>146124694
Are we assuming that servants just stand still?
>>
>>146124003
I'd TOTALLY hang out and drink w/ Hayate
>>
>>146124861
I dunno man, even without that magic blade RH still look quite pointy.

>>146124925
Are we? We're just talking how Nanoha can overcome Saber's class magic resistance right?
>>
>>146125044
Well I'd assume from the context and "not even a problem". It sounded like it was a "winning strategy" for Nanoha. Doesn't seem like a good idea to try and stab a class specialized in close in combat with literal precog skill
>>
>>146125044
>even without that magic blade RH still look quite pointy.
I don't know.
I mean, I'm not saying you couldn't stab a normal person with it, but damaging a servant with it would be a different matter altogether.
>>
>>146125164
>>146125279
I'm just saying that Nanoha already have means to beat enemy with anti-magic defense. Who knows how she gonna do it.
>>
>>146123531
A couple years ago, I could maybe see it.
Servants, however, have been powercreeping quite a bit recently.
>>
>>146116992
>>146117043
Is this Vivid style foreplay
>>
>>146125470
Well we've seen three ways to beat anti-magic in Nanoha
1. MOAR MAGIC. Given the power of most Saber's spell resistance, this is the one least likely to work.
2. Use magic to throw non-magic related things. This might work depending on how strict the "only magical things can hurt a servant" clause actually is.
3. Surround your spell with a barrier that the anti-magic has to break down first, meaning by the time it has started work on the actual spell, it would have hit already hit the target in the face. Probably the best option, provided you can make the barrier strong enough, which I imagine Nanoha can.

>Surround your spell with a barrier that the anti-magic has to break down first
Isn't that due to how AMF specifically works?

Aren't Breakers (and other certain types of powerful specialized spells) supposed to be specifically about breaking anti magic shields?
Alternatively Fate can summon a regular thunder storm from the sky and fry any normal human.
>>
>>146126036
This is where we hit the brick wall in this discussion.

MR usages are lacking even from F/SN. MR is rather vague on how it operates. From what we've seen it's just a flat out "No magic here" effect. Rather than "breaking up mana links" like AMF fields would.

Servants like Tamamo have ways of circumventing A rank MR by having a rare specialty craft available to them. Whether or not specialty Nanohaverse spells can overcome MR is a completely differently story.
>>
>>146126019
I don't remember enough of how AMFs work to give an answer to that. I just know Teana did it once and it worked.

>>146126036
>Aren't Breakers (and other certain types of powerful specialized spells) supposed to be specifically about breaking anti magic shields?
No, breakers are for break through magic shields, not anti-magic barriers. If there was a class of magic spells that could bypass anti-magic, the Drones in StrikerS and Eclipse in Force wouldn't be nearly as big a deal as they are.
