Magical Girl Lyrical Nanoha StrikerS
When a fire breaks out at the airport, a little girl cries, lost in the carnage. But just as she's about to succumb to tragedy, another girl just a few years older comes to her rescue; a mage from the Administrative Bureau. The eyes of that older girl pierced through the smoke and the flames, right into the little girl's heart. She cried out, not in suffering, but in frustration at her own helplessness. At that moment, she decided: "I will become strong."
Four years later, that little girl is now the size of her savior she met that day. She now knows the identity of her idol: Nanoha Takamachi, ace of the Bureau's Air Force. To the little girl, she represents an unattainable height: a star in the distance, far beyond the clouds. But that little girl had made up her mind. Even if she can't fly, even if she can't reach the stars, she will stand on her own two feet, arms outstretched, reaching out for them. Subaru Nakajima looks up to the sky. She is age 15. And she's going to move forward, towards her dreams.

Aun, the granddaughter of the village chief, falls in love at first sight with a bard who has come to perform a sub-musical instrument, and chases after him, taking the village's treasure. Photon is asked by the village chief to bring her back, and although he manages to retrieve the village's treasure from Aun, he is unable to bring her back, and instead ends up being dropped to the bottom of the "Treasure Valley" by Aun's sub-magic! There, Photon discovers a strange, huge lump of iron. It is the remains of Kine's spaceship, which crashed here 700 years ago…

Cutie Honey: The Original TV Series
One day, Honey Kisaragi's a trendy, class-cutting Catholic schoolgirl. The next, her father's been murdered by demonic divas from a dastardly organization called Panther Claw. When his dying message reveals that she's an android, Honey uses the transformative power of the Atmospheric Element Condenser - the very thing Panther Claw wanted to steal - to seek revenge against the shadowy clan. Can Honey fight her way up Panther Claw's ranks to defeat its leader, the sinister Sister Jill, while managing to escape the watchful eyes of Miss Hystler, her school's headmistress?
Aided by journalist Seiji Hayami, his ninja father, and lady loving grade school brother, Honey sometimes appears as a racecar driver, sometimes as a glamorous model, and sometimes as a beggar, but her true identity is none other than the warrior of love, CUTIE HONEY! Created by legendary manga artist Go Nagai (Mazinger Z, Getter Robo, Devilman) and first broadcast in 1973, CUTIE HONEY is one of the first action-driven magical girl shows, despite being aimed at a squarely male audience.
