Yeah, my idea was for a super psychic soldier made from combining various aspects of high level psychics. Such a thing is not really feasible now that I think about it. You can ignore it if you want.

Different chemical sustance were used on Worst series thus the body has a different shape.

Worst isn't at Touma's age, Worst body growth was supposed to be increased to it's strongest point (animes usually go for the 18~23 range), she is more on Seria's age range than in Touma's, but she might be even older than her or something.

Also, remember that Worst growth was "ideal", Mikoto isn't going to naturally get there just by aging; she should if she would actively work towards it, but it may be too late after all we don't know at what age Mikoto started worry about having a -erm, healthier body. She does struck me as the type that follows a healthy life, after all she is Misuzu's child.

Well, from Daihaisesai you can see both have different nutritional trends and that affects growth.

Actually, isn't Worst often described as High School age?

Even if she is, she's still a clone based off a 14 year old middle school girl that we all know and love. It's just that her physique makes her look like she's older than the original herself.

I dunno. We all saw how her mother turned it so Mikoto ending up stacked when she reaches adulthood isn't that farfetched. Everyone keeps telling her to drink milk to so...

Mikoto being more flat chested may be because she's very athletic as the sports events showed. Hard to get stacked at that age when you're running around ever and burning so many calories.

Normally I hear 14 is choose as the peak age by japan culture (could be wrong, I read this ages ago).

Not really, 14 isn't the peak age by far. There's a big difference between a Japanese 14 year old girl and a 20 year old Japanese woman.

As a cultural belief... not as a factual scientific fact.

That depends who you ask since that isn't a cultural census in Japan. Besides, all the major idols in Japan aren't 14 year old girls anyway and they're usually seen as what is ideal. Though they all do look pretty young but so do the stars at Hollywood.

That's the lolicon Otaku POV, 14 and beyond are generally old-hags for them (even 13 is barely safe ) ... but you can't take that seriously though. It doesn't need real logical explanation or anything, it just shows how twisted one's mentality is when they are obsessed over some kind of idom.
<----- perfect example

... huh ... did I miss something? Most Hollywood stars look like ancestors to me, or else the ones you're talking about aren't the most famous or new ones I've never heard of >.>

Is ... it really that flagrant? then what's with all those 14-year-old girls working in soapland?!

Most likely because by the time they're 20 they wouldn't want to work there or have already gotten married? The Japanese family structure is far more strict than over here in the West.

^ I don't really get the answer
You know that only major (20+) can "legally" work in soapland right? To be blunt, the issue is more about how they managed to work there with their so called "not so 20s like 14 year-old-bodies" rather than the motives.

On topic : Well, my purpose isn't to prove that Miko-chin will be doomed to be a pettanko for the rest of her life, though. Everyone can change greatly in a few years, no matter how small they are (unless it's genetic). Just like how Wendy who's got a loli body can be so ... glamorous if she were a bit older (I'm against that btw, loli should stay loli for the rest of their lives) >.> ... but the possibilities she won't grow that much still exist.

Sorry to drag this back to Kakine but I just had this genius thought. It was like an epiphany.

The person Kakine wants to save is the person sleeping inside the windowless building that Othinus wants to make a holistic esper.

That sounds pretty plausable.

I like Ilidsor's idea... Though if that turns out to be true, Kakine could face a tragic fate. It would sad if Kakine got his body back along new found powers to save the girl only to be instantly crushed by a magic god.

And Kamijou saves him and he joins the harem. The circle of life!

Nonsense, obviously Accelerator would channel his innermost Kamijou and pull out all the trademarks infringement to redeem Kakine and make him into the next Harem lead of the series.
