I'm so disappointed with Sergei.
a few eps back he squarely rejected Arika. 2 eps back he said he was attracted to Arika, and how angsty he looked while admitting it. And now he "FINALLY" succumbed to his "daughter's" seduction who is abt Arika's age. What the? And what's up with Tomoe. WHAT'S WRONG WITH SUNRISE! She can go crazy all she like, but could she stay away from Shizuru! >.< |

Also wouldn't as well we have the possiblity that what Sergay really did was was some sort of sleeper hold on her and she THOUGHT she did what she did? I really wouldn't be surprised if something else happened since it has happened before in this series.
True Kieli, we don't know if nanomachines work on eunuch's. That and considering Nagi, he might enjoy the pain. Though maybe your idea of horrible chemical reactions in his body would be fun due to chelating agents. Or just subject him to Arika's cooking with a whole day locked in a room with Shiho. Being at college I know all too well how bad food can mess you up. |

I enjoy Mai Otome as a series. It's a form of entertainment to me. It's not very important, in the big picture... no one's life will be improved or hurt by whether I like the series (except maybe Sunrise marketing execs). Visiting these boards to speculate and get other viewpoints on the series is another layer of enjoyment to me, and was a blast for the first ten or fifteen episodes, before twh's behavior became widespread. Repeatedly visiting internet boards under a guise of anomaly and repeatedly taking actions designed to entertain yourself at the expense of other people's enjoyment of a series is a type of trolling, and its unhealthy, sad and pathetic. It's difficult for the mind to comprehend the depths of my dislike of Gundam, but do you see me over on the Gundam boards telling people that giant robots are stupid? No... I simply allow the Gundam fans to enjoy their series on their own boards, and wish them the best. Why is this so difficult for some people? Is pissing on someone else's parade that much fun? As far as Ignoring goes, don't think I haven't strongly considered it. But I really really hate to actually use that, simply because people always have a chance for redemption. A good example is Matrim... he's made some posts that have made me want to smack my head against the wall, and yet he's made some very thoughtful and intelligent posts too. |

Recall that Mashiro qualified as one of the keys to the Harmonium despite never having nanomachines. I'm sure any one of the 3 keys can use it's power as long as it's been activated by all 3. While Nina can no longer use it's power directly ala ep. 22, she can still use it as a long range WMD ala ep. 23. Besides, she might be able to use it to restore her nanomachines. If it can heal a dying man, it should be able to restore degenerated nanomachines. Quote:

the problem is : because of the degenerating nanomachines activities, the body will simply counteract them with antibodies. the person under this state can no longer received any nanomachine (they would be destroyed by the antibodies, sane or not). this is explained by yokho at episode 4 (that's why they said : you will loose your otome abilities forever ) and i don't really think you can force a body to stop creating such antibodies like that |

>> I'm assuming that, every time she has to play the Harmonium, it needs to recognise her and her nanomachines
Nina only materialized before because the Harmonium made her act as Protector simultaneously with Player. Now that she is no longer an Otome, the Harmonium only recognizes her bloodline. As for what role the gem plays here, my best guess is that the Harmonium cannot recognize a bloodline without a medium, and the gem fulfills that role, acting independent of the Otome bond. >> FULL power of the Harmonium [...] Wouldn't anyone be able to play the Harmonium Full power will need all three participants. The Harmonium can only be used by the Player. The other two are not sufficient, as Mikoto proved in episode 7 or so. >> Why would Nagi allow that power to be lessened? Lack of, and averse to exercise, total control. Nagi has no illusions as to why Nina does all of this: Sergey. Sergey is essential when manipulating Nina and his removal from the equation (does not necessarily include killing, but removing from immediate vicinity) could tip Nina's already frail mental balance in an unforeseen direction. Instead of playing a very dangerous game with his ultimate weapon, he decided to embrace a lesser risk. Hah, maybe he thought Sergey lost his touch when he protected Arika, he certainly derived some malicious pleasure from the scene when the great seducer inadvertently fell for Arika. Anyway, Sergey obviously showed us he didn't lose that touch... ... or to put it more realistically, Nagi underestimated to what lengths those two would go for each other. >> Would she have become a more world-weary Nina or a more determined, strong Nina? Definitely a strong Nina. The way she pronounced his name in the end, without any trace of hesitation, was to me an indication that she finally found and attained her "heart's desire". |

But! 1) Right now, the complaints, according to you, are pointless and provide no constructive discussion. 2) Making a thread that has meaningly content will promtly get deleted. The point Im trying to make? Making a complain thread just cant happen now. Not even as a last resort. The thread (if made) cant be of use at all. It cant act as a middle ground, because the very existance of the thread is non-existing, nor can it exist very long if mods see it fit to delete a useless thread like that. The suggestion, of making a thread (last resort or whatnot) is pretty much moot at this point in time. Quote:
"powering up" the Harmonium is one thing, acutally being able to USE it is another. Surely there's a reason as to why the True Princess is having piority over the Protector and the Song? Look at it in the context of FF X: Say, Tidus's celestial weapon (Harmonium). It requires key items to power up (Song, Protector, Conductor). But in the end, only Tidus (True Princess, Nina) can actually use it. Thats the way I see it. Quote:
Hence, the question would be: Can the Harmonium remove the anti-bodies? |

Removing the antibodies and then restoring the degenerated nanos. I didn't elaborate because I assume everyone would know what I'm talking about. Well, if it can regenerate someone's brain, why can't it remove antibodies? IRL, antibody production in human body is triggered by foreign agents, the body will then keep producing them on a "memory" basis. But if the agents (degenerated nanos) and the existing antibodies are wiped clean to the point that Nina's body no longer remembers that such things ever exist, a fresh batch of nanos can then be injected safely. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Quote:
There are a lot of men born without "proper" equipment you know... And considering the setting of MO, they would've preferred to use men if it were at all possible. What intriqued me the most right now is why the previous war was called "The Dragon King War". As well as Miyu's comment about the "sealed Black Power". Was there someone called "The Dragon King" that triggered/caused the war? If there was, is he the "Black Power" that Miyu described? If he is, is he also Schwarz's "Black God"? If Sergay turns out to be something not-exactly-human, his apparent invincibility would then be explained. Last edited by ArchDragon; 2006-03-24 at 11:40. |

The idea around the nanomachines is an strange concept because that means for Aswald the only people they can save are the women and not the men, otherwise the nanomachines would break down.

>> Well, if it can regenerate someone's brain
The Harmonium isn't regenerating anyone's brain at the moment. What I gathered from the conversation, is that Nagi said to Nina that she would put Sergey in stasis - essentially freezing time for him - and when the school's secrets have been unlocked, it might be possible to revive him. A frail hope, but that girl would try to fly with a cardboard box if it meant saving Sergey. |

sure they aren't the same as the otome one, but still (Midori orders to everyone to activate their nanomachine for 5 minutes againt haruka at episode 10, and she said to arika and mashiro that they need garderobe technology, since their own nanomachine aren't reliable (they never know when they will be destroyed, that is maybe the reason why lumen died) ) |

The cyborgs are like Miyu in a sense, they have other power sources. As for Lumen dying, couldn't it be from damages she suffered during the battle against Cardair's Otomes? There's no way you can beat that many Meisters without getting a scratch. |

Damn quick reply, missed that post.
>> Some days I think he's one of Mikoto's cats...nine lives and all that....he's only give five more left at this rate. Sergey is just incredibly tough. You know, the eats steel, shits iron type. >> I personally would consider gravely injuring Sergay to be a greater risk I agree. That's why I mentioned that removing from the equation is too dangerous, but now Nagi deemed it inevitable. I'm pretty sure it'll come back to bite him in the leg next week, if anyone's going to distribute divine retribution to Nagi, it's Nina. >> Or maybe this was simply payback for betraying Nagi in the first place Well, I do think Nagi was sincere when he said "Truly a shame, Sergey" after he shot him. They were together in this for a long, long time after all. >> will Sunrise use the Harmonium to undo the effects of SLAVES That's what I hate about those yellow sparkles, a corpse is a corpse, but when your sendoff consists of lots of sparkles you can always pull something out of your ass, like insisting they still exist in some metaphysical level. |
