Oh frag it- if you're just going to google it I might as well come out and say it- At least I can get the "first kill" achievement, instead of the "Kiting around in circles" achievement...>.>
Answer: It's all the various euphemistic names for the many Prostitution services in Japan.

When you read it, you see "These two are special and can/have awakened." When I read it I see "These two have awakened and are therfore special." And hell, even if it does mean the former, it still doesn't touch on the idea you need to be one of the 'special' people to awaken. It merely states these two are special. Look at it in context: Quote:
Is there any other place that awakening is diccussed, because frankly this means jack squat in the whole 'ability to awaken or not' debate. It merely talks up Kakine and Accelerator's awakened states.

Though assuming I'm wrong and you don't have to be 'special' to 'awaken', then how does the esper ability mechanics in IndexVerse support the theory that espers in general can 'awaken'? How would Personal Realities and AIM fields controlling one factor such as heat, water, or telekinetic forces get you to that level of power? Even if we disregard the 'special' trait as a factor, being able to manipulate AIM fields in general, involving multiple factors, seem to be a prerequisite in 'Awakening', so to speak (eg, Vector Change = reflect many kinds of energy, not just AIM, Dark Matter = more than one kind of material created, Aiwass & Kazakiri as Artificial Angels made of many different kind of AIM fields and can manipulate them to a degree (Wings of Light, sword of light)). Speaking of where 'awakening' is discussed in the LNs... "Awakening" is a fan-made term. IIRC nowhere in the LN sections about Accelerator's black wings or Kakine's own abilities are they explicitly named as "Awakening". From where the Black Wings show up, we have Vol15 against Kakine, Vol19 against Aiwass, Vol20 against Touma, and Vol22 upgrading to White Wings prior to fighting Archangel Misha. The word "Awakening" is never used to describe Kakine and Accelerator. |

I don't see why some of you are so obsessed about Mikoto Awakening or not. If she does than she does, there's no reason to speculate on it. Sure it makes sense that she would eventually Awaken if she becomes very closely tied to this Awakening business, that she must Awaken to counter fighting someone that is Awakened, but it isn't the end of the world if she doesn't Awaken and just continues kicking ass as the Railgun.

Jokes can be taken to obsessive levels as well and someone's going to take this too seriously. Best if we don't let this get out of hand since it would cause some issues if Mikoto does end up awakening or not if this discuession continues as is.

This awakening business seems like just an excuse to give characters a sudden power up so they can introduce some ridiculously powerful enemies in the future. Worst case scenerio this ends up like Bleach where they get multiple power up or "Awakened" forms. Quote:
My suggestion is so that this doesn't boil over into a misunderstanding and a bickerfest. The longer this goes on the higher chance someone will be offended and believe this isn't a joke. |
