Magical Girl Lyrical Nanoha (series)

Manga and Anime-Originated Franchises

Magical Girl Lyrical Nanoha is a Japanese multimedia franchise built around the magical girl Nanoha Takamachi, a nine-year-old schoolgirl in modern Japan who is drawn into a conflict over magical artifacts between extra-dimensional powers. The first installment was the 2004 television series, an alternate-universe spin-off of the Triangle Heart series, and the franchise has since grown to include several anime television series, theatrical films, manga, drama CD adaptations, video games and toys and model kits from Bandai. Later installments move the setting off Earth and follow Nanoha into adulthood, and her own role in the stories has gradually shrunk in favour of new characters. Its genre is given as magical girl and science fantasy.
