It seems everybody on the team is more or less impressed with what they've got so far. And yes, for those of you who didn't know, Shinbo directed the first Nanoha TV series. Who would've guessed, yeah? Anywho, it's a power force of staff, with the financial backing of Aniplex, so I've got some pretty high expectations for this one.

That being said, the official website's been updated with the OP and ED themes.

OP is コネクト (Connect) by ClariS (OreImo op 'irony').
ED is Magia by Kalafina (Kara no Kyoukai op's).

PVs:  

CM 9 (CM動画9) is up on the official site.
