'''''Magical Girl Lyrical Nanoha ViVid''''' is the fourth entry into the main ''[[Lyrical Nanoha|Nanoha]]'' continuity and the first to debut as a manga and not anime. It began running in Comp Ace in 2009. It's set four years after ''[[Magical Girl Lyrical Nanoha StrikerS|Magical Girl Lyrical Nanoha Striker S]]'' and one year after ''[[StrikerS Sound Stage X]]''.
 
''ViVid'' is actually more a [[Spin-Off]] than a true sequel and features Nanoha's and Fate's adopted daughter Vivio (first introduced in ''StrikerS'') as a [[Magical Girl Warrior]] that [[Older Alter Ego|turns into her teenage form when she needs to battle]] [[Transformation Trinket|with the power of Sacred Heart]] - her... bunny plushie Device. That's right, it's a return to more traditional [[Magical Girl]] fare, complete with a rival [[Magical Girl]] in the form of Hegemon Ingvalt, a [[Warrior Prince|king from the era of Ancient Belka]] similar to Vivio. It also has many recurring characters from ''StrikerS'', including the reformed Numbers cyborgs.

{{tropelist}}
* [[Barbie Doll Anatomy]]: Used extensively in transformation sequences, but [[Nippled and Dimed|averted]] with the adults in all other cases.
Line 26:
* [[Lighter and Softer]]: Stubbornly defies the franchise's gradual slippage into [[Darker and Edgier]] territory by ditching most of the military sci-fi elements and playing up the franchise's [[Magical Girl]] roots with a dosage of [[Kung Fu Wizard]] for good measure.
* [[Loads and Loads of Characters]]: It includes appearances from characters from every other entry in the series, even ''[[StrikerS Sound Stage X]]'' and just keeps piling more new characters on top of those and that's before the [[Tournament Arc]]. If it continues like this it may even smash the record of ''[[Magical Girl Lyrical Nanoha StrikerS|StrikerS]]''.
** Just [http://gallery.minitokyo.net/view/527212 look at this picture]{{Dead link}} and how big the cast is alredy.
* [[Mood Whiplash]]: [[Shmuck Bait|Do not read this]] back-to-back with the [[Darker and Edgier|other]] currently running ''Nanoha'' manga, ''[[Magical Record Lyrical Nanoha Force|Force]]'', or you'll be in need of a new metaphorical neck before you know it.
* [[My Kung Fu Is Stronger Than Yours]]: Arguably the whole point of the series, with multiple practitioners of different fighting styles squaring off to see who will come out on top.
