[Kenju of the Right]

Hm, I'm cool with Hero Mode Touma

[Sumeragi]

Just figured we could talk about the strange juices of Academy City.

I would drink SURVIVAL+1, Kasumi, Golden Honey, Pomegranate Cola, Feijoa Soda, and Coconut Cider.

I'm always up for some "Ichigo Oden" or some "Guarana Aoziu" challenges, the so called in text "juices from hell". Now if it comes to preference and not puke survival games, then I'll enjoy myself with some Habanero Pineapple Juice , Kasumi and the Tsumetai Oshiruko (Cold Red-bean soup)

Guys can't be cute too?

...Doesn't that applies to like 80% of all Index stories ?

His voice in Mayoi Neko is pretty much his Polite Harem Protagonist voice, which is one that he uses quite often before his role in Index.

After Accelerator suddenly he gets more roles in stronger voiced characters like Rin in Ao no Exorcist.

Unlike "surprise, it was something else!", I meant literally.

And who in the wouldn't like to see more of that?

[Marcus H.]

Coconut Cider

I think this already exists in the Philippines. Not sure if it's tuba or lambanog which fits as "coconut cider".

Cider here means "sweetened carbonated drink similar to the UK lemonade". It's a term used in Japan and Korea. Think about it: Would Academy City allow the sale of alcohol in public vending machines (for that matter, are there any country like that)?

Oh well, that clears up some things.

coconut cider sounds positively delicious. no wonder Misaka likes it, then again, Misaka is the most normal of the lot.

i'd try Habanero Pineapple for a dare, and SURVIVAL+1 (Life Support Drink) out of my own curiosity. Kumanokare sounds yummy, though weird.

I only started following Okamoto's roles recently, so I haven't seen a lot of his works yet. The only ones I'm familiar with so far are his roles in Aoex, Bakuman, GC, Kaichou, Mago, and Index.

[RPG_Fanatic]

Things are really getting crazy.

I laughed at "A Wild Touma Appears" in the changeroom. That has to be a new record for him.

Touma, Touma everywhere in the illusion battle.

[Okashira]

A 30 year old loli. Knowing Kamachi, I'm surprised it took so long to introducing that character archetype .

[Ashaman]

lol, Touma featuring in a battle of illusions.

Someone's taking that meaphor and running with it

Komoe. Or had you forgotten her. That makes Sensei sad~

She is probably less than 30, it's a huge difference. And yeah, I had totally forgotten about her . I was tempted to add "ninja cyborg" into my initial description, but I refrained to and it came back to bite me, ha.

BTW, it seems that Kamachi wrote this volume in a way that you aren't supposed to even know who is fighting who until the whole thing is done, since even the most basic premise of who is fighting who is already hard to make out, thinking about who is winning and who is losing a whole new problem in a totally different scope.

....any way kamachi migth had been fast paced and hardworking, but, damn the translators dont fall behind.

She's probably older than 40, given that she was the oldest female protagonist as of Volume 5. This means she's older than Kamijou Shiina, who's a mother of a 16~17 year old boy and thus probably at 40.
