The Liese twins and Reinforce Eins (who had been SparedByTheAdaptation in the games) are also absent.

** This can be attributed due to a shift in staff between films. For the first two ''Nanoha'' movies, the character designer and chief animation director was one Yasuhiro Okuda, who performed the same duties on all Nanoha series prior. For ''Reflection'' and its sequel, these duties were taken over by Kana Hashidate.

* {{Retcon}}: Even though the Book of Darkness was destroyed along with Reinforce at the end of ''[[Anime/MagicalGirlLyricalNanohaAs A's]]'' (and there is even a flashback showing this), somehow Hayate not only still has the book, but it contains much of its ancient data (a fact on which much of this movie's plot hinges). This is handwaved by a character remarking that only 50% of the book's original data was destroyed.

In the movie, the Mc Guffin is called "Eternal Crystal", not "Examia".

The actual character models haven't changed all that much (beyond what can be justified by the characters being two years older) but the color palette is softer and the shading style is noticeably different.
