Never is not constantly! Mikoto hasn't technically lost to anyone but Kamijou and possibly Accelerator (fight never finished but we would have known the result). That's 24 novels of plot armor! I still have to hold the opinion that "Level 5" is just not a legitimate excuse to never lose given all the cheating insufferable bastards in-series. Well, luckily, Kamachi hasn't opened this can of worms and has decided it more prompt to keep her out of plot-driving battles in Kamijou's story.

Both of you keep using the term plot armor but I don't think you know what it means. To use the television trope example: Quote:

It's plot armor exactly because her abilities are inadequate to survive the Toaru universe. Sure she isn't a PIVOTAL point of the plot but, given her in-story desires to get more involved but getting shafted each time by Kamachi (God), is giving her plot armor.
What Acer and I are discussing is the situation in which the Mikoto vs Brunhild fight happens and Mikoto wins because she's Mikoto. Given the way her role in-universe has been it is what will likely happen. |

well, in fact, Index has never been injured badly (except memory loss before the series begin) and no one complain about it...I think both of them get what so called "Plot armor" in the series...
Don't take it too serious man, if Mikoto fight and win so, that's it, no complain. If she does get hurt badly, so what can we do LOL So, I think we should just wait and see what will happen in NT6 |

You say her abilities are 'inadequate to survive' yet she has persevered through a number of incidents. If you're saying she can't survived the most dangerous of incidents, then I guess countless other characters have plot armor as well right? Hamazura has plot armor then. Hamazura was injured, but never seriously injured. So you've already decided that no matter what she do, you're going to call it plot armor?

In other words, if you're not the author, don't try to make excuses for what happens in the story. *Refills popcorn, sips Teh Ping*

So most of her mental scars, while they lingle around still, they wouldn't have the same effect as is she was to ignore the incident |

But her (negative) Emotions were dampened since she thought she stopped the project. But i guess being a Level 5 there is always some mental instability. |

You only mention/realize this now?. When you look at the six level 5's(who we know) collectively, Mikoto and Misaki are the most normal of the bunch. The others are almost beyond mental instability in my book. Except maybe Sogita since he's on the fine, thin line between hot-headed idiot and just plain crazy. I pray that the sixth level 5, when revealed, will be sane-ish.

He's a Homicidal Maniac powered by pride and jealousy of Accelerator. He wants to take Accelerator's position in Aliester's plan to the point that he may be obsessed with it. He is Almost like Sena from Boku wa Tomodachi ga Sukunai who stares at pictures of Yozora plastered on her walls and ceiling while sniffing a wig that Yozora wore while looking forward to/plotting the day she(Sena) has her revenge on her(Yozora). Also, there is NO PLOT ARMOR on Misaka.
P.S. seeing as NT6 will be over 400 pages should I assume that Teh_Ping-sama will be helping with the translation?
