Do you want to expand the series into the Apocrypha?

I'm surprised Kamachi hasn't dealt the Satan worshippers card at all in the series. They're usually the de facto magic users in any series that has magical religions.

He did, although that's in an audio drama.

The current opponents are the Norse mage a.k.a the gremlin. Kamachi doesn't mix everything together. A Norse mage use norse magic and if the current enemy are the Norse mage then you get only Norse mage opponent. Wait for the next arc to come. Maybe he will deal with Greece next time.

HUWAAAT? Really, really? Index was just broadcast in Hero TV? Or is it Railgun?

Wait. But they do know that the RCC are portrayed as villains in Index, right? Padre Damaso would outright ban it and all anime after that.

Yeah. Can Marcus confirm this? I really thought they will only release Railgun, but Index? It looks like they're looking forward to a field day with Padre Damaso over this one.

I know I'm kinda late on this, but I just found the time to read the novel... and WOW, freaking WOW, this volume was really epic. That was a real trip.

I don't know if I should be ashamed to admit it, but I haven't read in a while something that made me so excited with the unpredictable chain of events. I think this is the best volume Kazuma has written so far.

This time I really felt how the whole "science vs magic" collided. I mean, I don't recall any past occurrence in which one side didn't overwhelm the other. This time the fights were even (I know that was GREMLIN's objective from the start, but still...)

What I'm not sure if was preposterous and silly or just plain cool is how Kazuma transformed the Kihara name into the descriptor for a very intelligent, yet wild and dangerous wild beast... I can definitely see Aleister exclaiming:
- "Release the Kiharas".

And the revelation of the previous owner of Imagine Breaker!... who is an acquaintance of Ollerus!? I hope Kazuma is brave enough to tackle the mandatory conversation between Touma and the previous IB

Speaking of Touma, was so cool this time, too bad that was used this time to show just how hack an actual Majin is.

... BTW, now we have a better reference for Ollerus's power, and it's basically just below that absurdity... And to think that he implied that Gunha could be on par if he understood how to use his abilities... Just how strong Gunha is really? Do you guys think he'll become a major player at some point?

... Well, I think I'm digressing too much so I'll leave it at this for now.

Well, obviously she couldn't have been beside Touma in his defeat, since she would have gone berserk and only gotten herself killed... Not that she'll even know that.

I'm almost certain she'll appear in NT5... what I can't say is if she'll catch up with him or she'll be relegated to a side comment like in so many previous novels.

Did I mention Index being broadcast in Hero TV? It's actually Zettai Karen Children which was recently broadcast in Hero TV. I hope that stops that misunderstanding from getting worse.

See this link for the current anime series rotation for this month on Hero TV.

Currently I can't confirm it because we don't have a cable but marcus was pointing out in zettai karen children being aired in hero tv. And if by chance philippines or hero tv aired or dub index before america then screw sky cable who always mess with me for always being offline. I WILL APPLY FOR RE-CONNECTION ON CABLE

If by chance Othinus begun his march in academy city. Then the anti-skill will evacuate the students. Well the normal ones then Aleister will release the Kihara's or his artificial heaven. But WAIT! there's MORE! Othinus will launch his immortal undying Einherjar.

EDIT:

I just notice that Einherjar reminds me of the throne of kings. Will Othinus launch heroic spirits to against academy city

Well, remember Mjölnir? THAT's a combat oriented Gremlin.

It's super interesting seeing it from the POV of other people instead of said person's own POV... I'm not sure how to describe it... But it's like he's a superhero if you know what I mean
I know, it was quite amusing. Specially the fact that he turned out to be both Ransuu's and Loki's worst nightmare.
And, his name alone was enough to guarantee Enshuu's victory over Byouri.

Anyway, others said that he was already a legend, but I think his name continues to build up with each passing achievement. He definitely seemed more mythical this time than before... Hell, when he finally appears Maria thought something I've read before "Just by being there – he had naturally avoided a tragedy". I'm not sure from where I remember it, but there was a sage whose goal was to become someone capable of saving people just by being there.

Well, those Einherjar sure sound like a huge problem, though I suspect Touma's punch would restore them to their dead state... which shouldn't count as kills since they are already dead, but it might look like he's actually killing them. I think that could make for an interesting situation.

_____________

I just remembered something. Could it be possible that Touma did not make it in time to save Maria, and that she turned the magic on her own? I mean, the crack appeared after Marian had activated the sword on her. I'm toying with the idea that maybe Maria became a holistic esper, after all, she seems special, and since she's a maid she might not have taken the curriculum... Well, it's just a thought.

Well that ... thing could take on Kaori and a single hit from it can cause a crater of 20 km in radius imagine it launch in a city. The city would be gone in an instant.

...She's level 2. And Othinus never mentioned Maria as a possible candidate so no luck.

So she does have a level? Hmm... I missed that.

Though there could be candidates unknown to Othinus, it's not like she's omniscient.
