That's an inaccurate way of putting it. It was revealed that Asuna was the last descendant of the Life Maker, not his daughter. Unless you're suggesting that she could be over 2000 years old rather than vaguely 130.

Asuna awakens, unlocks her full power, and remodels Mundus Magicus Nagato Yuki-style.
Unfamiliar with the concept here

He's talking about a reality rewrite (Yuki's from Haruhi was a recent example of one where she changed the time line itself, though scarlet witch I would think is a better example)

He's referring to The Melancholy Of Haruhi Suzumiya.

I'd put a spoiler warning, but anyone who's that interested in the show probably knows this by now:

Yuki is a pseudo-robot/human computer program that has a limited ability to "reprogram" reality. It's similar to the Code of the Lifemaker, but based more on science than magic.

The idea of Asuna pulling something like that is certainly possible, given that she's a descendant of the Lifemaker and everything. That's the source of her magic cancel abilities, although whether that means she inherently has the Lifemaker's other abilities is up for debate.

Er... I guess I have to admit to not really having a huge problem with the translations that are already out. They had some problems, obviously, but not bad enough to make me feel the need to buy a new copy of them.

I might buy for the purpose of having the omnibus edition. It's easier if it's all together, besides my copies weren't in the best condition when I bought them so...

Living with fanslations has left me with very low standards.

I'll pick it up if I find it on sale or something. But for now, getting the volumes I don't have yet is on the top of my priority list.

I wouldn't mind omnibuses of the later volumes instead, the early ones with all the harem fanservice isn't quite my thing .

Dont worry, Im sure there is a reason it hit her, shes a robot, her entire body can be replaced, and being split in half shouldnt even be an issue. Im sooo hoping for chao to show up now, the awesomeness would blow my mind

Negi down and on the brink of death with no one knowing how to heal him?
Chachamaru split in half with no one who has the knowledge to fix her around?
The situation getting worse and worse?

Doesnt that kinda scream for a chao comeback ?

I'm still pulling for Al, Eishun, and Eva to do something. They showed far too much of what's going on at Mahora for that to have no effect on the current plot. And really: there's three of them, and three new Averrunci. How much more perfect can you get?

Though that said, I wouldn't say 'no' to a Chao reappearance either.

Compared to the other two, Eva is a tad overkill...

Huh. The Chao one might be nice too.

Strengh isn't really the major point here. We have three strong enemies that are spread around. And whou would soon start killing some people. Even someone who could beat one at ease, would prob take longer than how the other two groups would resist agains them. And if Eva do appear and can really beat an Averrencus with ease, another idea would be for her to face the Master of the Grave. She does sound powerful to me!

Hmmmmm... if the Master of the Grave is Zect (And I honestly think it is, I won't lie), then he/she is 2,600 years old and Nagi's former teacher...

Another High Daylight Walker? We could finally be hitting on a worthy opponent for our darling Kitty.

Far too much? We've barely seen anything on it. We don't even know what the hell they are exactly planning to do.

Also, it'd be annoying if Negi has to be bailed out by Eva again, although it's still better than seeing an Ala Alba massacre.

Chao looks like a better choice, especially since she could have a dead set of ancestors if the new Averrunci are as crazy as Quartum and Quintum appear to be. But I still wouldn't bet on it.

I made a bet with a friend that IF Eva appears and IF she fights an averruncus (my money is on the fire one) that she would NOT have an easy time with him/her. People are still massively underestimating the enemy or overestimating Eva.
