Hehe I know

That would be interesting although Accelerator cut off those shackles he and GROUP had because of the Dark Side

but yeah-

OMG

What if AIM Stalker causes 05 Kakine to fall in love with Rikou

That's a pretty big leap you're making there Besides, it only allowed him to have a shot at free will. As established before, the lolis were the main trigger for the change.

So, you should be looking for flat chests.

What? Birdway has a good reason for it so it's all forgiven? Nobody should judge her and hurt her feelings? Give me a break.
Birdway certainly can judged by the people she victimized, and I never once said she is right in what she did.
I'll actually be in agreement with Touma if himself getting victimized by Birdway is what he was ranting about. I have stated above too Birdway sacrificing people is a valid argument against her. But I truly see that is a point Touma derailed from.

If you consider wielding his power recklessly and irresponsibly is call trying. If you think he blindly believe he can solve the problem in Baggage City all by himself and ditching all his supporters behind is call trying. The truth is, Touma would even have difficulty get into Baggage City if not for Persi.

If this is the way you put... then does this example really worth anything?
I guess he is cutting his own flesh in Baggage City. But what does it amount to? Because he don't want get his supporter involved, so he can cut his own flesh, he end up arriving so late into the city, when the tragedy is half way through.
He was paper thin in front of Othinus, and would not have made it out if Ollerus had not arrived. He was just drowning in his Messiah complex.
Cutting own flesh is worthwhile as a selfless sacrifice, as it actually attracts people to support you. But Touma has cross the line by ditching other people so he can be the one to cut flesh. I guess I can now understand Mikoto's distress when she was left behind. She is one of those attracted to Touma due to his selflessness, but end up thrown behind when Touma start to take that behavior the wrong way.

Touma disagree with her way of doing things. Full stop. That's it.

Again with Birdway guilt... How about she actually talk to people instead of going behind everybody's backs and THEN say that nothing else could be done.

Sure, nothing could be done NOW when everything became all screwed up.
And I never disagreed on the point of Birdway being immoral and deceitful.
What I can't stand is Touma trying to say he is better when he is half baked as well.

And lose the chance to make Gremlin become predictable to her? We already know what happened in Hawaii when Gremlin had the initiative.
Like I said, this is a lose lose situation. When you gain something, you open up another loop hole for casualties.

shmaster, I don't want to drag this argument any longer than I have to and damper the mood, so hopefully this is the last one I'm posting on this subject since we're pretty much going in circles and enough people have already stated their thoughts on it.

This example might have worked before things all went to Hell.

Maybe that two weeks it took for them to reach Academy City in NT1.
Or that three days(?) of preparation for them to go to Hawaii.

Certainly plenty of time before 'all hell has already happened'.

When did he say he was better?

This as well wouldn't have been as bad had she bothered to tell the people helping her of her plan.

@shmaster

Humans are creatures with emotions. They will always defend their thoughts and rationalize to fit those thoughts in the world. Touma believes he has the power to save people, he believes birdway has that power too.

Touma thinks that birdway use her power in the wrong way and as a result cause many casualties. He personally saw those horrible effects and his efforts at that point did little to save people. Thus, it is only normal for touma to be angry at birdway, to be human and blame birdway for those horrible things.

I'm not saying what he did was right, but its just that touma is very human. Human would always try to look for things to blame and regret not trying other methods. Thus, all he wanted to say to birdway is that he disagrees with her method and instead thinks there are other better methods. Using himself as bait is only an example.

About touma having messiah syndrome:
In my opinion, touma being all selfless and self sacrificial does not mean he is insane. You have to understand how the human mind works. It realises it can't have everything. It realises it has to weigh one thing above another. It realises that having that more important thing does not equate to happiness.

To touma, he weighs a happy life with everyone happy around him far more than a peaceful life for himself but surrounded with unhappy and dead people to the point where he is willing to sacrifice his own life for it. This is very human and normal. Its just what is most important to him. Nothing more, nothing less.

To be honest, with the kind of allies he has, calling them wouldn't waste much time. Call Kanzaki, call Accelerator even...The English royal court also more than owes him. Giving them a call while heading over would not have hurt.

“I take back what I said,” said Accelerator without hesitation. That was something he did not often say. “Academy City’s #2 esper power of Dark Matter is one hell of a power. It was wasted on the likes of you. And it was clearly too much for you to control.”

“Come to think of it,” added Mugino Shizuri with a puzzled look. “Do we have any proof that this one was actually the core? The #2’s mind was scattered over the system, and this one was the closest to the surface. But nothing says what showed itself on the surface was Kakine Teitoku’s true nature. Weren’t we just battling the very outer layer of his mind this whole time? Then again, even just that was no easy task, so I guess the #2 really is no normal person. …Oh, and make no mistake. I wasn’t complimenting you when I said that. I was talking about the real one.”

Hahaha lol! Both Accelerator and Mugino sounded way too gleeful in those last moments That's some epic trolling.

Unit 05 struggling for control was a bit too matrixish for my understanding so the only parts I got was after it 'blooms into a flower' I like how they used 'infinite possibilities' in this as well, almost like it's mirroring Othinus' own 'infinite possibilities'.


So the question now is what would happen to Kakine Teitoku? Would he proceed to creep the hell out of Accelerator and Mugino with super polite mannerism and genuine happy smile and baby green innocent eyes ?

New Teitoku would be a soft spoken bishounen with kind eyes and a tendency to say unintentional lady-killer one liners...

There's a lot of interesting interactions possible.

Kakine: Looking great as always, Mugino-san.
*gets blown away* *reforms instantly*
Kakine: Now, now, don't get worked up so early, it's not good for your skin.
