==== YMMVs introduced by [[Nanoha Original|The Original Series]]: ====
* [[Complete Monster]]: Precia. She was ''not'' one at the beginning of the story itself, but she ''is'' when we see her first on-screen. Heck, the woman crosses the [[Moral Event Horizon]] in her [[Establishing Character Moment]].
* [[Eight Point Eight8.8]]: Carl Kimlinger's [http://www.animenewsnetwork.com/review/magical-girl-lyrical-nanoha/dvd-box-set review] of the first series gave it a C-. Cue [[Flame War]], especially over whether his emphasis on the lolicon aspects of the series was justified.
* [[Growing the Beard]]: Arguably gets considerably better and more interesting after the first three episodes and first sound stage.
* [[Moral Event Horizon]]: Precia whipping Fate for not bringing enough Jewel Seeds back, despite bringing half a dozen and working constantly despite the risks to her health from everything she's doing.
Line 11:
==== YMMVs introduced by [[The Movie]] and manga: ====
* [[Jerkass Woobie]]: Precia in contrast to the original incarnation. She's still a cruel bitch of course, but you can feel bad for her too, especially since you often ''do'' see her expressing emotions besides her typical cold disdain and occasional insane glee, like when she finds Alicia's lifeless body She's even implied to {{spoiler|''regret'' what she did at the end}}. Since it is an in-universe biographical movie, the inconsistency is explained with Fate insisting on a more sympathetic portrayal of her.
* [[Pandering to Thethe Base]]: While Fate got a transformation, Nanoha's transformation was more fanservice-based and Bardiche and Raising Heart both got new looks, but there's a lot of information that ONLY fans of the series would know that didn't make it in the movie.
* [[Wangst]]: Nanoha is considerably more angsty in the movie manga, and some people believe she falls into this at times. For example, while at the end of the Jewel Seed case in the original anime, she was mostly satisfied with how things turned out but somewhat worried about Fate, she believes in the movie manga that she was unable to help anyone at all. This has lead to the [[Fan Nickname]] "Emoha" for this version of Nanoha.
** In fact, the manga's story is quite a bit more gratuitously angsty in general. Fate doesn't recover from her [[Heroic BSOD]] in time to either team up with Nanoha or confront Precia, Chrono blames himself for the trauma that Nanoha and Fate went through, the general consensus among the Arthra's crew is that the jewel seed incident was a lost cause, and even freaking ''Raising Heart'' angsts when it thinks that it's given Nanoha faulty combat advice.
