woot sub-forum! :D

now what can I say about Toori Aoi that hasn't already been said?...:confused:

He's a gentleman, scholar, pervert, and all around bro...hell I'd follow him into the a war zone...:heh:

You can rarely see a guy like him as a main character :D (as a fodder maybe :heh:)

not the typical MC type who overly show his sorrow/sadness and face his past with grin ( ¯‿¯) smile instead :D

and Fukujun pervert-ness makes this character more lively :heh:

I didn't think it at first, but Tori seems like he's going to end up being a fairly multi-faceted main character. It's cool when a guy can be perverted and yet still awesome and a bro at the same time. He really seems to have taken the loss of Horizon to heart and that more than anything seems to have brought on the fake carefree outward persona while inside he's total mess.

I think that we're supposed to be Masazumi's expy when it comes to our opinion of Toori... at this point of time.

What did it mean when it was said he 'killed' Horizon? Does he know himself?

How is he able to keep on smiling with/without that knowledge regardless? How was he like before re-meeting P-01s one year ago before the start of the anime timeline?

Why does everyone supports Toori despite his whimsical attitude, his obvious lack of responsibility and his general troll attitude in general? ( I didn't think this was terribly important, it could simpy be 'good friends' but Masazumi seems to feel that way )

... And that he seems to be... quite good friends with Masazumi's father and his friend.... as well... to have them join and take part in his... ghost exorcism hijinks. :heh:

There is clearly more depth to Toori than what we see of him, something that apparently everyone else other than Masazumi knows, but she herself doesn't see it.

this is a long story so i can understand why the focus of the show isn't him right now
I am waiting for him to use his power which is a very troublesome one
it is powerful (in some sense) but the restriction is ... very harsh
will we able to see it this season?

These points are a huge spoiler, so I think you should keep them and continue watching :heh:.

Well, of course they're huge spoilers, my point was that these points are already introduced in the anime as a teaser to the viewers. :heh:

The viewers need to be induced to the fact that Toori... is more than what he seems, y'know.

Right now we're in the 'Toori is seemingly useless and not-plot-relevant' phase for those who's impatient. :heh:

so is Toori seriously pulling off a Hououin Kyouma here?

When does he start doing something badass?

agreed. :D

hm.. will he still can smile like that after ep5? I'm curious how he will act from now on because on ep 5 he looks so serious and worried about Horizon..

Maybe some people have already noticed about his name : Aoi Toori (tori) means blue bird
should we expect he can bring happiness to all people?

not sure about japan but the Color blue is also used in funeral lanterns.

Well, that's what he wants to do, so I would say you are right.

If you don't mind me asking and if Iam allowed to ask, what exactly IS his power? You can message me if you can't state it here.

Aoi Tori = Blue Bird. Blue bird is a symbol of peace.... i think.

Sometimes I wonder about this guy. Is he really stupid or just pretend stupid?

what I get from this series so far is that, if you put it in dnd terms, he's low int high wis (not to mention the insanely high Cha).

Might not be the brightest one out there, but has the wisdom to become a great leader.

You know what just came to mind?

Toori reminds me of another fictional character that must do everything in his power to make people think he's an inept idiot, in order to carry out his mission...Booster Gold from the DC Universe!

Except Booster's background isn't as tragic as Toori's...:heh:

Best MC ever. That damned :3 face, :3

My favorite baka type character XDD he made me laugh so much especially the sushi roll scene and getting punched away by masazumi.
