I swear that I have heard this before, almost like the scene playing in my head, but no series seems to jump out.

This is the second quote that feels so familiar but I can't place. This is so frustrating. Sad

Oh, geez! I can't believe I got suckered in by spoiler[Infinite Stratos] (although given the nature of that series, something like this quote could have easily come from it). I have now placed exactly where it's from and who said it to whom, and this time there's not a shred of doubt that I'm right. Ugh!

And DuskyPredator: You never participated in the series discussion for this title and it's not on any of your "Seen" lists, so it's quite possible that you haven't seen the source title. (But then, it's not on my woefully-incomplete "Seen" list either, so. . .)

original timestamp

So your plan was to lure him in by showing some skin, eh? You're shameless! Even so, I won't lose! After all, I can be even more shameless.

Hint #1: spoiler[This martial artist speaker is in a heated rivalry with the English lady addressee over the Japanese male protagonist.]

Hint #2: spoiler[In the first episode of this TV series, the one allegedly being lured in enrolls in a school that trains girls to be elite soldiers, where his older sister is a legendary figure.]

Well, that just confirms that my second thought on the answer is right. Damn. . . Rolling Eyes

I think this might be...

Anime: spoiler[Freezing]
Character speaking: spoiler[Rana Linchen]
Addressed to: spoiler[Satellizer el Bridget]
spoiler[Rana with her usual rivalry with Satellizer over Kazuya Aoi in attempts to convince him to become her Limiter.]

If correct, I pass.

Hint #3: spoiler[As you could probably guess from the bolded line, Character A has large, distracting boobs. They have been featured in the infamous 'guess that rack' part of the Anime Character Guessing Game.]

I should have remembered this after hint 2. spoiler[Character A is Mizuha Miyama, Characters B and C were the TV commentator and host. Were they named? The commentator had what looked like a name superimposed on the screen, but I can't read Japanese and it wasn't translated in the subtitles nor listed in the closing credits. Anime is Magic User's Club tv series, episode 1.] Context: (kinda spoilerish for the original OVA) spoiler[The magic user's club is moving the cherry tree, the remnant of the alien bell they defeated in the OVA. It causes a commotion in the city as the tree walks through and Miyama thinks she's the person to stop it, since the bell grabbed her in the OVA.]

Episode 3 of spoiler[Madoka Magica], shortly after (major spoilers incoming) spoiler[Mami dies. Sayaka is demanding that Homura give them the grief seed from Charlotte, because it's Mami's, and Homura tells them it's only something that concerns Magical Girls, so they don't have a right to touch it.]

EDIT: If I'm right, I don't have anything in mind for a minigame, so feel free to post another.
