He can only touch a bit of the cage. Not enough to lift the whole thing up.
And he didn't say anything about focusing it. The air molecules may bounce off him harder than normal (begging the questions of why his cells don't burst from internal pressure - well, must be his power, too.), but they're not going to "focus". |

You have to wonder about Touma's luck. On the plus side he gets to meet girls, go through their routes, raise flags making them fall in love for him. On the sucky side he gets to inevitably get into trouble meeting sociopaths. Ending in the hospital every arc. For somebody who has money trouble his Insurance must be fully paid for all those medical expenses. Micro-surgery of his right arm last time Sheesh. |

And because everything in this universe moves relatively to something else, Accelator could move everything he wants in fact. Spoiler:
Does anyone else know "The Circle of Dawn" by Ralf Isau? In this books the hero can slow down things. After a diskussion with Albert Einstein he realizes that he could use his power to slow down the movements of molecules or someone´s movement with the circulation of earth. In other words, he can use his power to freeze people or to let them crash by EARTH itself! The rule behind this is: The simpler the power, the stronger it is! Another example: Alcatraz Smedry, who owns the power of breaking everything... Really EVERYTHING, his forebear used this talent to break TIME itself! |

I loved seeing The Shocker go all out her lighting attacks are pretty sick. But her story is also sad wanting to help people when she was a child undergoing experiments only to have her DNA used to make "sisters" that are being disposed of just to see the Accelerator reach level 6. I agree with her about helping them they are basically slaves but i dont think she needs to die in order to achieve this goal.
Other than more of Touma's lecture's nothing else really happened but i dont think it was a bad episode we got to see what makes Mikoto tick. Touma is annoying but this time around i cant really dislike him for it, hes trying to get someone to not waste their life and Mikoto is cool so it would be waste.

When you have espers running around, you have to be a bit more flexible with natural laws.

I wonder though. Why a certain esper has a predisposition to a particular power.
Why does Mikoto has electrical-electromagnetic powers? Why does Kuroko have teleportation. Why does Accelerator automatically deflect anything? Thus the age old question of nature vs nurture. (This is starting to sound like Heroes.) Does personality or heredity have to do anything with how powers come to be? Perhaps in this question is the answer to Touma's Imagine Breaker origins. |

Because no two brains are the same, every esper develops another power. Spoiler:
This powers seems to work like a Reality Marble or Marble Phantasmn (if I have understood Tsukuyomi-sensei right), that means: The power of espers and magicans in TCMI is the power to alter reality and probability. Magicans do it with the help of higher spirit beings. (Power can be replicated.) Espers do it by theirself. (Power can´t replicated.) Basically Touma´s power is the ability to backset this changes and to recreate the primal reality. Last edited by Doc Astaroth; 2008-12-23 at 18:29. |

Seems I am one of the few who actually liked this episode ...
For not having read neither novel nor manga or whatever, I dont mind explanation at all. Sure it was a lot of talk and a bit repetetive, but I see Mikoto being desperate to help her sisters and Touma being desperate to help Mikoto and her sisters, I believe its natural to shout at each other the way they did so I didnt find it boring or uninteresting. What I like is that Touma actually can use brains before doing something (even if he didnt come up with a solution yet) to figure out what Mikoto was planning and is not the I-will-walk-into-the-enemy-lair-and-figure-something-out-when-Im-there type. |

Given that other lvl5's exist surly there are less psychotic options available. And what's with the super computer being destroyed been a hindrance? They built the first what's stopping them from building another. |

Nonetheless, I don't think this ep is quite as bad as people are saying. At least they're not ramming a plot twist every minute down our throats like they did in some of the previous arcs. Off topic, but KaneDragon: That sig is awesome.

Technically, he was forced to go there by Stiyl... And boss fights doesn't count, because you always have to improvise in boss fights.
So long story short, Espers can "reject your reality, and subsitute their own" I'm not sure why people didn't like the beginning with Komoe sensei's crash course lesson, but I thought it was interesting. Moving on, I don't think this episode was bad, in fact my immediate impression was 'very good', but once I let it sink in, I do agree with many that they could have shorten it alot. They pretty much used up only 3/5th of a chapter, and I certainly agreed with Shiroth that they've chosen an odd moment for an insert song... As for the ending, as brilliant as waking up in the lap of Mikoto, I don't mind this one either... It looks like Touma would be saving both Mikoto and Misaka(s). I'm intrigued by Accelarator's power; this is the first time I'm heard of anything like it... The Power of to control Vectors, the potential is almost limitless!
