From this isn't WR a Magic made version of IB and if so would a Science side version show up too because we know IB is beyond Magic and science and your most likey need knowledge from all sides like Crowley to understand it?
Thanks for the translation. Even though it was very likely, they encounter each other somewhere in the first chapter. And yeah, there's specifically no furigana so it's referring to the person, I think.
If he wants to get at the magic gods for turning him into the world rejector, what negatives are there exactly that make him want to act? Does he get crappy luck like Touma?
“I haven’t checked on any of the details, but based on what Kamisato himself said, there is a connection between the origins of Imagine Breaker and World Rejecter.”
Still putting on it being related to his Second Death, too.

Can I please experience the full brunt of that S mode?

The pointy-haired boy was caught off guard by the question.
And without a second’s thought, he answered as he always did.
“What are you talking about? Of course I couldn’t do that.”
After having argued over this point, Othinus and Nephthys could only sigh at almost the same moment.
Sounding utterly exasperated, the one who understood him spoke.
“See? That’s the kind of guy he is.”
That's Kamjiou Touma.
Quote:
“Your opponent’s power is just as abnormal. You can no longer fight like a joker taking on a group of aces and kings. This is a joker against a joker. In a way, it’s even harder to predict than a clash between two aces. You’ve never experienced something like this before, so you can’t predict what’s going to happen based on your accumulated experience. If you don’t focus your mind, you could easily end up dead in a way that ignores all the rules you’ve seen before.”
That being italicized doesn't bode well. Really interested on how they will fight and where Birdway Sisters fit into all of this.
Quote:
The golden retriever summed up the meal with a single word.
“Such romance.”
“Um…?”
She was confused.
She did not seem to realize that was the highest praise he could give.
Noukan is a true dandy. Dniv would be proud.
Quote:
Come to think of it,” she said. “You were quite busy ordering maintenance, weren’t you?”
“Yes, I was.”
“You stopped that Arrowhead Comet from falling…but you said it isn’t over, didn’t you?”
“It smells quite fishy. It bothers me that all of the Magic Gods hiding in Academy City vanished.”
They had vanished.
As their deaths had not actually been confirmed, there was still a possibility that the Magic Gods were hiding somewhere. Kihara Noukan simply had a bad feeling about where this was headed.
It felt like the night before the bubble burst.
Noukan still doesn't know who it was then... I guess Aleister doesn't know either.
Spoiler for Imagine Breaker is plot armour confirmed!:
Then, Othinus gave the final announcement.
“If that’s your intention, you can’t get careless, human. Until now, you’ve gotten through everything making full use of the blessings brought by your right hand. As all kinds of normal threats opposed you, you achieved an unexpected victory using that abnormal power. But this will be different.”
“?”
“Your opponent’s power is just as abnormal. You can no longer fight like a joker taking on a group of aces and kings. This is a joker against a joker.

Yes,my threory is proven correct since 2011! Imagine Breaker causes Touma to have misfortune. But,this proven many times of why Touma is not even dead yet after so many battle.Touma can easily die by just shoot a bullet in his head. But,he is lucky enough all thanks to his Imagine Breaker.
It's that time again! And I'm laughing before the end of the prologue, that's a good sign. Really, that exchange between Touma and Index was really nice. Good way to spice up the old biting a little.
Quote:
“You’re the one that came here intending to get him involved. Are you going to play innocent while rolling around in his bed? Besides, what I said was accurate. Right, Kamijou Touma? If you could avoid any trouble with Kamisato Kakeru by throwing Nephthys and me out in the cold, would you be able to do that?”
The pointy-haired boy was caught off guard by the question.
And without a second’s thought, he answered as he always did.
“What are you talking about? Of course I couldn’t do that.”

Othi-tan really sounds like an annoyed wife in this part
Quote:
It felt like the night before the bubble burst.
Or before a natural disaster, a war, or an oil crisis. The details did not particularly matter.
He felt a sense of impatience. It was like he was standing on a path that’s width fluctuated but that he could see down, but one day it suddenly changed entirely.
Curiosity increases, concern for Othi-tan rises inmediately afterwards
Birdway pulling the gun was expected, anyone who read the side stories knew that.
What it wasn't expected is that she would pull it at the end .
I read the side stories after reading NT 6
Funny enough, Birdy might be the backup that saves Touma this time around, and after hearing Othi-tan's declaration about how weird this battle might get, Birdy could be very useful to have around, and not just for dishing out Arcana.
Spoiler for Prologue: The Magic God is Now Nearby — Home_Party?:
Quote:
Everyone there except Kamijou was a freeloader (including the cat).
Nephthys confirmed as the new freeloader. (Still miffed that it isn't Niang-Niang)
Quote:
Everyone there except Kamijou was a freeloader (including the cat). Othinus gave him a look that said “I don’t want to hear that from you”. She had recently realized the cat would not attack her if its stomach was full, so she kicked over the box of pet food to cover the floor with some crunchy chaff.
All she accomplished was covering herself in food and getting attacked all the faster, but Index and Nephthys did not seem to care. They more innocently interpreted it as the cold cat wanting to use the fifteen centimeter girl as a source of heat.
It seems like Othi-tan can never truly escape the threat of Sphynx.
Quote:
She was probably trying to be one hundred percent serious, but the horrors of interpretation meant the others only saw a brown beauty whose naked body was covered only by bandages as she got up on all fours in a leopardess pose.
Welp…color me aroused…
Quote:
“Then, Touma, can you swear to god that your thoughts are entirely pure right now?”
“Ahem.”
Averting his gaze and clearing his throat proved to be a poor choice.
I CANNOT SWEAR THAT MY THOUGHTS ARE ENTIRELY PURE AND I AM A-OK WITH THAT!! I REVEL IN IT!!
Quote:
“What’s going to happen to our food if you keep bringing in new freeloaders!? What about tonight’s dinner for example!? I’m not gonna let you take a piece of food away from everyone else to feed the new girrrrrrrrrrlllllllll!!”
Index getting her priorities straight.
Quote:
Finally finding a way to fight back on the psychological front, Kamijou slid to the side without getting up from his seated position. This did a splendid job of dodging Index’s attack.
Yes, Kamijou Touma was quite capable when he put his mind to it.
Kamijou Touma
SKILL: DODGE
Lv Up
Quote:
“I distinctly remember stocking up at that sale three days ago. So why is there nothing but soy sauce and miso in the fridge?”
“Ahem.”
Averting her gaze and clearing her throat proved to be a poor choice.
Kamijou Touma felt like a narrow circuit in his head had just fried.
Spoiler for Chapter 1: Imagine Breaker and World Rejecter — One_Night_Encount. Parts 1-2:
Quote:
“Niang-Niang is dead. So are all the other Magic Gods.”
“Eh!?”
“No, saying she’s dead might not be accurate. She took a direct hit from Kamisato Kakeru’s World Rejecter and was sent to a ‘new world’. As long as we remain in the current world, I doubt we will ever see her again. In that way, she might as well have crossed the Sanzu River or the Lethe River. You can just think of it as death if you want.”
Rest in Exile, my wondrous no-pan zombie goddess.
Quote:
“Yes…that boy. Kamisato Kakeru looked like the kind of normal high school boy you can find anywhere. I don’t even know whether he’s an Academy City student or not. He had incredibly plain features. He might have been even more average than Kamijou Touma. At the very least, he didn’t seem to have years of high-level military training, years spent in a magic cabal, or any unique physical features like those of a Saint.”
Hah. More average than Kamijou. XD
Quote:
“Just like with Imagine Breaker, he was probably simply chosen by the world’s lottery. But I don’t believe Imagine Breaker ended up in you by random chance. I still believe that the dreams of all magicians were drawn in by the shining soul of the person bearing the true name of the One who Purifies Gods and Slays Demons. …In that case, there must be something inside Kamisato Kakeru as well. Something unique that drew in World Rejecter.”
Well, it's nothing more than conjecture at this point but the evidence does point in that direction. Not to mention, the High Priest had said something similar with regards to IB.
Quote:
“The World Rejecter inside Kamisato’s right hand is the exact opposite. His hand has the ability to cast his target into a ‘new world’ and erase their existence. In other words, it abandons and gives up on the current world to take a trip to another world. It is a collection of that illusion.”
In other words, a full contrast. Their purposes may be the same but their effects aren't. The Illusion Killer as the foil to the Ultimate Illusion.
Quote:
“In other words, World Rejecter appeared inside this Kamisato because you all were disappointed in Kamijou Touma. Hah hah! I can see why he would hold a grudge. It’s like a cell being devoured by the apoptosis it created!! Did you enjoy getting the entire world caught up in your suicide!?”
Apoptosis, eh. A fitting simile. The Magic Gods subconsciously programmed their own deaths. At least, if what Nephthys is saying is right.
Quote:
“Should you really be laughing? We in the true Gremlin started doubting Kamijou Touma when he left his path to save all Magic Gods by gaining an understanding of you personally. In other words, none of this would have happened if not for your actions. All of the chaos since the end of the World War Three, including today, can be blamed on your selfishness.”
CATFIGHT! GO! GO!
Quote:
“Ow! Don’t poke me in the meridian with that skewer!! Anyway, two girls in a serious fight is the last thing I want to see. Just imagining it feels like having a fishing hook solidly lodged in my soul.”
Kamijou the poet.
Quote:
“It’s true. All you need to know is that this Kamisato Kakeru person has an irregular ability just as cheap as Imagine Breaker and the two of you might clash in the near future.”
“Oh? That doesn’t seem like enough of an explanation to me. In fact, it seems a little unfair to him.”
As Akaba Reiji would say: Let's just put that aside for now.
Quote:
“You’re the one that came here intending to get him involved. Are you going to play innocent while rolling around in his bed? Besides, what I said was accurate. Right, Kamijou Touma?

“See? That’s the kind of guy he is.”
“I see. Someone this abnormal probably would have been perfect as our scorer.”
Kamijou did not like how they were talking about him and he turned to Index for some support, but she turned away in a huff.
Kamijou Touma, you smooth motherfucker.

Are we foreshadowing a paradigm shift here? I wonder…
Quote:
He was a man with an understanding of romance, but he did not use his robot arm at times like this. He shoved his face into the bowl and devoured the food while making plenty of noise. Table manners were meant to allow everyone to enjoy their meal, so demonstrating one’s enjoyment of the food was more important than unnecessary formality. He viewed this as the ultimate etiquette toward the one who had cooked it.
Pfft. I could have never gotten that by my parents. Screw table manners. :P
Quote:
“O-oh, dear. I’m going to blush. What do I do? Should I make you more?”
Apparently, Kihara Yuiitsu is a good cook. Who would have guessed?
Quote:
Or before a natural disaster, a war, or an oil crisis. The details did not particularly matter.
He felt a sense of impatience. It was like he was standing on a path that’s width fluctuated but that he could see down, but one day it suddenly changed entirely.
He told Kihara Yuiitsu nothing of this.
This went beyond logic and efficiency, so a pure Kihara would never understand.
Or perhaps this man who understood romance was picking up something on that antenna.
I'm calling it. Some kind of huge paradigm shift is incoming.
Well, that was interesting. Still not much info on IB and WR yet and so far, a lot of it seems to be mere conjecture by the characters.
Still, I am honestly seeing some huge paradigm shift incoming. Maybe it's just me.
So, it referred to Imagine Breaker being attracted to Touma because of the pure contents of his soul (his Shining Soul)?
And it referred to Noukan being human again, yet he's still a dog. (Fulfilling the conditions for him being able to use AIM/Magic)
It looks like my guess on AIM, MAGIC, and everything being partly fueled by one's inner soul and not purely by quantum physics is starting to pan out.
Lol the PV and Chapter 1 part 1 & part of 2 were great... but that had some ominous stuff...
I'm not analyzing nutin until the end of this volume so bye.
Though yes, I agree with Hiss. Paradigm shift definitely incoming.
