It has been revealed at a Magical Girl Lyrical Nanoha booth at the Comiket 86 doujinshi event that the manga Mahou Shoujo Lyrical Nanoha ViVid will be getting a TV anime adaptation.

The official site was also launched at the event.

The manga by Takuya Fujima and Masaki Tsuzuki was launched in 2009 in Comp Ace magazine. Set four years after the events of StrikerS, the manga follows Vivio Takamachi, the adoptive daughter of Nanoha Takamachi. Vivio, who has her own device named Sacred Heart, is challenged by a mysterious fighter.

Good news!

It's been awhile since I've seen the franchise besides the movies. I'm hoping Force would get an anime adaptation in the future though. This could work for a full TV series (maybe even 2 cour). Also still waiting for that third movie.

Not going to lie, I actually expected ViVid to be announced after the release of the third movie and supposed movie remakes of StrikerS. But this is definitely really great news, Nanoha is my number one favorite mahou shoujo series.

EDIT: I actually wonder how popular ViVid will be among the general anime watchers, seeing that it is the fourth season out of the franchise with the third season airing nearly 7 years ago. Unless you're an older fan or willing to marathon three seasons (or shortcut by watching the remake movies and just season 3) by the time ViVid airs, the probability of a watcher picking up this series is very slim since you actually have to watch the previous series to have a general understanding of the premise and characters and can't just skip right to it.

Force sucks, Vivid is a lot better. Plus Vivid has a better chance of selling (I may be a bit wrong look at what it's against this Winter).

I'm surprised this came since I just finished the first two seasons like a few days ago.

I'm not sure if I'll be able to watch this since I haven't finished the third season due to mixed reactions of that season.

I haven't read/watched anything outside of the three main Nanoha series so I'm not familiar with Vivid. The only thing I know about Vivio is that she was cute as a kid and that Nanoha unloaded all her arsenal on her one time. Break Shoot that brat! Still, Fate and Nanoha coming back as 20-something adults? *cough* Yes please. I'd like to know if they're still sleeping together on one bed.

Nanoha innocent was the only manga worth adapting. Not exactly excited for Vivid. Although adapting Force would have been even worse (to me).

More Nanoha anime = more fun. Though I can't say that Im really excited on it as ViVid is like the Dragonball(kid goku version) version of Nanoha.

Perhaps this adaptation might bring back those martial art theme story in animation? That might be something to look forward to.

Yay my most beloved Mahou Shoujo franchise gets a new anime - that is great news!

Glad they picked Vivid for an adaption, better than the convoluted mess that Force is. Only Innocent would have been even better.

Yeap! "Innocent" would be more than better, but I agree with you, better ViVid than Force.

I will never understand why people like Innocent so much. It's not kanon, it uses trend online-games theme and it's even more lighthearted than ViVid.

I haven't read Infinite Library ark of ViVid yet(waiting for translation) but Tournament ark was great action sports anime. It reminded me Saki and Girls und Panzer but with magic and martial arts theme. But the best thing were flashbacks about Unification war. I really want to see more about Olivie and other ancient heroes.

OH MY GOD. YES.

I've never read ViviD actually, because I really wasn't into reading mangas after finishing StrikerS years ago. But after rewatching the first two seasons last year, I told myself I would read Vivid after rewatching StrikerS but I guess I'll just wait for the animation.

I have a question though, since I haven't read anything after StrikerS. Do we actually get to see Nanoha & Feito-chan a lot in Vivid? I'm seeking for more adult!Fate and Bardiche and I have a love-hate relationship with Vivio.

Being light hearted isn't the problem with Vivid. It's the excessive fanservice and massively expanding one-shot characters. Nanoha Innocent is full of moe and focuses on the top-tier charcters of the franchise without actually adding more of them. Plus the character designs are infinitely more badass looking than Vivid when it wants to be. It may not be Canon to the original Nanoha timeline, but Vivid and Force just make me wish the Nanoha franchise stopped with StrikerS. An AU like Nanoha Innocent is a breath of fresh air to those who disliked the route the Nanoha franchise was going with the Vivid and Force mangas.

And yes, Nanoha Innocent has quite a bit of fanservice as well, but the series plays that to its strength and it's much better than the pointless clothes shredding fanservice that Vivid provides...

Great news. Although there is no much of direction in Vivid, it's much better compared to Force. While Force has more of a story, it's just badly-written and it recycles elements from the previous seasons. Plus it seems to be canceled, so it doesn't seems there might be a chance to make an anime out of it. I could see more of a chance of Innocent getting a bunch of OVA or so, even if it's not canon pretty much.

I wonder now, how the third movie will connect to Vivid. Will it be a StrikerS prologue exclusive to the movies or just a new continuation and Vivid will be a sequel to the TV series?

Thank you for showing me that I'm not alone in wanting a Force anime. Fortress Nanoha would be amazing animated. Not to mention, Nanoha, Fate, and Hayate look gorgeous in Force whereas they look okay in Vivid. Well, that;s just the artstyle.

But, it's a Nanoha TV series for the first time in seven years and I'd be a fool to look a gift horse in the mouth since this could lead to the possibility of a Force anime *fingers crossed*

YES. Let's. Fucking. GO. Best news I've heard all year anime-wise. If Negima finally gets an adaptation off the strength of UQ Holder then I'm pretty much satisfied with manga adaptations for good.
