Campione!(カンピオーネ!) [Light Novel]

[nfsac]

Yep. Erica is now the lady of the 7th King. The duel with Doni will be awesome. TOo bad we did not get any of this on the anime.
Man the problem is that 13 episodes are too short for any short make a good game, unless they split then in season, which take us years from one to another.

Spoiler for V 11 Spoiler:

When Erica said she couldn't see him anymore, forget everything and get lost, Godou showed up at the Bronze Cross Association and demanded to be brought to Erica's uncle or he will lay waste to the place. So clearly, if Erica want Godou, she need to play hard to get instead of the hunting lioness

Wow, does this really happen? Can't imagine Godou making a tough stand.

But I still feel that Godou shouldn't take a beating for activating the authorities. The authority which I enjoy the most is "Youth" and "Sword"

Never expected from Erica to shy away

Ironically the thing is, remember vol 4 where Liliana mentioned that she wanted to give her first kiss to the man she will love and be with for eternity. Remember the part where Erica made fun of that................, does anyone see the connection there and vol 11? I can tell you guys, but what is the fun in that.

[nfsac]

Lets face it guys, Erica reverse raped Godou and never told anyone about it.
Also the only girl Erica can't put under her controll is Ena, right?

I don't think is that ironic, a lot girls have that notion at first. Once "it happened" they become "oh well" and rationalize it.

Godou took a lot of "tough stand" for Erica already, like bursting in rage in the netherworld with Erica almost died then completed the "youth". He also flattered a port city when Erica just coughed. Just because he try to run away from her all the time, if something is really keeping him from her it will be leveled out of existence.

So technically, if Erica really want to bed Godou, she should conspire with Salvatore Doni. It would be the perfect plot, Salvatore use his campione powers to kidnap Erica and threaten to NTR her or something, it will get Godou fired up, Salvortore will get his duel, and Erica presumably will get some hot loving after (if she time it right)

You miss the point, most girls do undoubtedly have that notion. The thing is while she laughed at Liliana's reason for her first kiss, she had the same line of thought. In a way it is kind of ironic that what she said towards Liliana as a dream, she went up and did as well. In a way, when she laughed at Liliana, it was like she was laughing at her past self.

isn't it more like ...
in front of everyone she already lost it .. so losing her purity in real life would not be that much of a problem now??

[iCK]

I've been trying to keep up, but now I'm lost. What is Erica's current situation? and What is with all this chastity talk? Did Erica cheat on Godou or something before she met him because it was started she didn't allow man to touch her.

Salvatore wants to fight, not be killed and ripped apart.

Highly unlikely, Salvatore Dali even he himself would not resort to such things. Salvatore has something called a Knight's honor (okay, before anyone jumps me on it lets say he has some form of it) as evident in vol 8 ch 3 where he fought according to his promise with Swords Only. Your imagination is aiming high maybe for a Japanese Porn mag, but lets keep it in the format of how the author would have done things.

The current discussion seems to rotate around Volume 11 which is currently a translation in progress. It takes place as a prologue, immediately following when Godou became Campione yet before returning to Japan. At this point, Erica does not seem to have any overt feelings for Godou and not nearly as open or forward as we've seen her so far. In essence, this chapter is describing how Erica fell in love with him and helping to bridge the gap so to speak.

As far as I can tell, the 'chastity' that everyone here is so eager to see her lose is more likely just an exaggeration of the truth. I.E. seeing her naked, possibly a romantic kiss, or a night in bed together that involves sleeping rather than sex.

So far I haven't seen anything that seems to lean toward this LN taking a more 'mature' direction. Then again, I didn't really see a particular chapter in SAO coming either. So who knows.

[fazri]

when i read vol 11 i just can laugh if you remember how erica make fun lily about kiss.

[bakapervert]

Yeah, surprisingly Erica deep down is really pure. In the previous book she is very bold and unrestrained in making out with Godou. Can't believe that actually she had really conservative side before she commited fully to Godou. This vol 11 keep improving my opinion of Erica.

Erica is the same as Lily who is pure a maiden and is not willing to let go of her "purity" at all cost even if it was ordered by a devil king. Even so they still fell for the Godou charm and Erica took most of the power cause at that time she is the only one unlike Lily where Godou already have Erica and Yuri and even of his rumors of being intimate with Lucretia Zola.

Just look at Yuri who is the most reluctant at first even nagging at him at all times and calling him indecent and openly showing his flirtatious behavior with Erica. Just look at her in volume 10 when she came back and want to be alone with Godou and make out and nothing else.

The author brought a good transition from boldness to frailness for Erica

Can you see a pattern here?? All are reluctant at first but then not even hesitate to go for together with others just so as to get a kiss from Godou.

Its nice to see more character development for Erica even though it already happened in the past. But I'm curious if Erica's personality can be developed any more or if the current state like in vol 10 is already final. Seeing Liliana, Yuri, and Ena, I could imagine some idea how their personality can be developed more. But for the current Erica I can't think how she can grow anymore.

Well, considering what happened it understandable. Erica was part of the catalyst that made Godou into a Campione, out of responsibility for taking away Godou's desired life as a normal being she assisted him. Erica sacrifice her maiden's purity to help him allowing him to take or see all her first. ........Well I could say more but spoiler issues.

Unlike Liliana, Ena, and Yuri, Erica allowed Godou to see her naked, bathed together, embrace each other in the nude, slept in the same bed, and kissed before she acknowledge her love her Godou.

Some would make the argument the other girls done the same, but they would only match one or two things that Erica done when first meeting Godou.
