Against her older sister's wishes, Kirie sets off with her childhood friend Iris to seek help from a distant alternate world. They arrive in Japan on Earth to search for the key to their planet's regeneration. There, they meet Nanoha Takamachi, Fate T. Harlaown, and Hayate Yagami.
Magical Girl Lyrical Nanoha Reflection opened on July 22 at 73 theaters and ranked at #8 in the Japanese box office. Magical Girl Lyrical Nanoha Detonation will open in Japan in 2018.
