Can't wait to see what Misaka and Misaki do, not just in reaction to Touma's situation, that alone would be interesting enough, but also what they'll do to help heal Aleister.

An incredibly exciting development, but after what happened to Othinus and Aleister, you remember the great possibility of Coronzon being humanized during the volume and in the end turning into a new girl who needs to be saved by Touma and blah, blah, blah.
And this erases the excitement. Let's hope Kamachi breaks the vicious circle. |

But overall get ready for people telling you that romance is not the focus of the story and that it doesn't matter.

Also, while Imagine Breaker is his main ability, when its cut off, either a Dragon (or eight of them) or an unknown invisible force will escape the stomp of his arm, both being extremely powerful and able to negate powers with less restrictions than his right hand. We've learned some things about his power but there is still much to learn.

Second, so far besides IB the author has been playing hide and seek throwing partial and misleading hints through the course of NT(the good old unreliable narrator). This volume might change that though.

I think If Touma ends with anyone it will be Mikoto. He might not have any obvious romantic feelings, but (beside Othinus who demoted to mascot) she is female he trust and think about most.
Being Misaki is suffering though, she probably doesn't have even half of chance she deserve... Unless Touma's memory get completely fixed that is.

Toumas' long term memory has been affected by two different injuries to his brain, the first was caused by Misaki who (knowing the risks) ended up using her abilities on him and crushed and crippled the part of his brain that stores memories. Then the second time when hit was hit by Dragons Breath, all of his memories where erased from his brain (heck, from existence). For all intents and purposes those memories should not be able to return... but if I have learned anything from anime, manga, LN is that if they can make death trivial in their stories, then I am sure that Kamachi.exe can come up with some bullshit reasoning for their return (mostly magical since he would have to disregard a lot of the realism or a lot of the actual mechanics he brings to the science side to pull this off, also, Imagine Breaker should make it impossible for anything to work on him like with Misaki). Now, you may ask yourself how is Touma still after that able to recollect general information and to feel familiar with something he should have forgotten. Well, the answer is that there are different kinds of memory and not all of them Quote:
When he remembers a smell, or gets a feeling that he is familiar with something/one it is because it has become a sort of reflex that is ingrained in his body. Quote:
I am sure someone more knowledgeable on the topic could clarify any mistakes in my logic far better than I ever could. If anyone on the thread can then please do so. But from my point of view, Toumas' memories should be gone for good.

It should (eventually, via accumulation) become equivalent to a perpetual state of de ja vu (re: Misaki/Touma interactions).
I mean, with real world science they infer a whole bunch of stuff that they can't see or possibly know due to gravitational waves and what not (and yes, I'm being deliberately vague here). ○ He can recognise the Tokiwadai uniform (even if that's an extension of his knowledge of Misaka) ○ He should be able to remember his encounter with a perverted girl who was Misaka's friend (so at the very least Misaka has at least one perverted friend, or another perverted friend... why does it seem like all of Misaka's friends are perverts?). ○ He knows about "Mental Out" as being an esper who exists (he just doesn't realise that MO and Misaki are one in the same) ○ He should at least remember a girl kissed his forehead (even if he doesn't remember who the girl is). ○ Frogface said: "“This isn’t really damage to his memories. It’s more like damage to the pathways that call in the memories. Even if the boy can talk about you, he won’t be able to remember you. If you think of the brain as storing people’s faces and names, you could say your section alone was physically crushed. I don’t think there is anything you can do even with your powers.”" Pretty much anything where <xyz = Misaki> should fail to correlate within his mind because the 'concept' of Misaki can't be reference, not that it doesn't exist (it's just corrupted/irretrievable data). It's akin to Dark Matter (esper power), in the fact that it is matter that shouldn't exist (and yet we know it does). If Dark Matter is matter that doesn't exist and doesn't comply with the laws of the world (and yet it does) it wouldn't be much of a stretch to believe that the concept of 'Misaki' will eventually exist once again.
