The popular anime series Magical Girl Lyrical Nanoha, which began airing on TV in 2004, celebrates its 20th anniversary this year. Starting today, October 1, the 20th Anniversary Project kicks off. Along with the first unveiling of a commemorative visual for the anniversary, a special 20th anniversary website has been launched, revealing detailed information about the project.

Commemorative goods featuring the first anniversary visual will be available for pre-order starting October 8 at 7 p.m. on King Cre Records. The lineup includes a B1 tapestry, character fine art prints, and an acrylic stand with aurora processing, all using the new visual. Additionally, those who purchase the entire set of 20th-anniversary goods will receive a free microfiber towel. More commemorative merchandise, including memorial body pillow covers, will be available, showcasing key moments from the Magical Girl Lyrical Nanoha series' history. Furthermore, a collaboration wristwatch with Seiko, commemorating the 20th anniversary, will be released. The concept for this collaboration is "capturing the journey of the Magical Girl Lyrical Nanoha series in a timepiece, continuing to mark time with the fans."

Additionally, starting at 1:30 a.m. on October 5, the Magical Girl Lyrical Nanoha 20th Anniversary Selection will be broadcast on TOKYO MX and BS11, and also distributed on various platforms. To celebrate the 20th anniversary, it was also announced that all 13 episodes of the original Magical Girl Lyrical Nanoha TV anime will be released for free, one episode per week, starting October 10 at 9 p.m. on the Magical Girl Lyrical Nanoha YouTube Official Channel.

To commemorate the Magical Girl Lyrical Nanoha 20th Anniversary Selection broadcast, a "Favorite Character Quotes" voting event will be held. Fans can vote for their favorite lines from Nanoha or Fate that left an impression on them from the first season. The results will be announced during the Magical Girl Lyrical Nanoha 20th Anniversary Selection. Details of the voting process will be announced at a later date.

Further updates and announcements related to the 20th anniversary will continue to be shared through the official website and official X (formerly Twitter).
