I honestly didn't think I'd enjoy watching Mahjong so much...

Nodoka's *ahem* [boobs] are just a coincidence plus she breaks some cliche that most well~endowed female characters are bimbos. ^_^ Yes, the most important thing here is the plot.

Dear God, that was painful... That said, I like this series so far. You were right, it was hilarious/awesome how the mahjong sequences were so over-the-top dramatic, but still played entirely serious (complete with effects you'd expect from Nanoha, if the preview means anything). And did anyone notice that the actual *absence* of fanservice, aside from the obvious (and even that wasn't focused on half as much as I expected)? It's nice to have a non-dark-neo-gothic series that can stick to a story without flashing us every 30 seconds. My neck still hurts from the whiplash of me cringing at Yuuki’s introduction.
