==== ''MGLN StrikerS'' provides examples of: ====
Line 23:
* [[All Your Base Are Belong to Us]]: The assault on the Riot Force 6 HQ.
* [[Amazon Brigade]]: Riot Force 6 in general, not counting Erio and Zafira.
* [[Anti-Magic]]: The [[Mecha -Mooks|Gadget Drones]] generate an anti-magic field. The "official" reason for creating Riot Force 6 is to train operatives to fight under anti-magic conditions.
* [[As Lethal Asas It Needs to Be]]: This is an explicit property of the "magic bullets".
* [[Badass Longcoat]]: Zest, Cinque and Erio. Fate's Impulse form Barrier Jacket combines this with [[Badass Cape]].
* [[Beam-O-War]]: The only time in the franchise where it's played straight is Nanoha's [[Curb Stomp Battle|"fight"]] against Dieci.
Line 57:
* [[Late Arrival Spoiler]]: The Wolkenritter's [[Heel Face Turn]] and Fate's adoption into the Harlaown family.
* [[Loophole Abuse]]: The TSAB doesn't allow too much raw power on the same squad. Nanoha, Fate, and Hayate together are way over the stated power limit. Their solution is to have power limiters to artificially keep their collective rank under the stated limit. See the rest under [[Power Limiter]].
* [[Mecha -Mooks]]: The Gadget Drones.
* [[Medical Horror]]: Some of Scaglietti's more depraved experiments jump right into this. Especially his end-of-season escape plan.
* [[Named After Somebody Famous]]: Caro's dragons, [[Friedrich Nietzsche|Friedrich]] and Voltaire
* [[Offscreen Moment of Awesome]]: Ended with the beginning of a mock battle in which the four forwards faced Nanoha, Fate, Vita and Signum, but none of it was shown.
* [[The Omniscient Council of Vagueness]]: The High Council, represented by three screens with Roman numerals {{spoiler|to hide their being [[Brain In Aa Jar|brains in jars]]}}.
* [[108]]: Genya Nakajima commands the Ground Forces' 108th Battalion.
* [[People Jars]]: Jail Scaglietti loves these. They contain unfinished cyborgs {{spoiler|and Lutecia's comatose mother}}.
Line 69:
** A four-level limiter is applied to the Forwards' own Devices so they can ease into the power they receive. One level typically gets taken off before each major battle.
** Lutecia also gets one as part of her sentence, reducing her rank from S to D.
* [[Powers Asas Programs]]: Most of the Combat Cyborgs from have special moves "programmed" into them.
* [[Prophecy Twist]]: A vaguely worded prophecy mentions the "destruction of the ship of law that guards the stars". Everyone assumes, given the seemingly easy conclusion of an earlier part referring to a disastrous terrorist attack, that this refers to even worse things to come if they're not averted. Turns out, {{spoiler|it's referring to the ancient warship the [[Big Bad]] manages to excavate, thus prophesying that they'll manage to stop it}}.
* [[Rapunzel Hair]]: Fate, Dieci and Nanoha.
