(L) Gakusen Toshi Asterisk [Light Novel]

[mike211]

Finally, even thou Ayato sword is still big in my opinion but at least, he is no longer swinging skyscraper around.

Thanks Setsuna for another great volume!

I'm glad to see Ayato leveling up more and more every volume. But I'm pretty pissed that the head guy madiath is in it with dirk about some plan and has to do with his sister...

Also it was cool to see that Ardi was entirely a robot ogre lux. Although I think Ernesta and Camilla aren't gonna be dealing with Dirk anymore if they do it's gonna be bad for everyone

However I think as far as the girls are concerned I think this next volume will be the introduction to the next festa event (the team of 3?) and I think the girls will be fighting over who's gonna be on a team with him although he's already picked Claudia and Julis lol but it'll be interesting.

I just saw the cover of volume 6, I hope the girl is the Venomous Witch, she looks so cool.

I'm sure she is the Venomous Witch as she wears the black uniform of Le Wolfe.

Spoiler for volume 6 cover:

And I agree with you. She's cool. With this, we learn that there is another beautiful girl with Silver hair and red eyes that isn't Ellen .

[GenesiD]

I would really hate for her to have a hidden agenda. She is too cool and likable for something like that <3

From my pov, she's a good girl. It's likely Dirk makes her do any kind of bad things as he has done with Irene. And she can't refuse to do what he asks. the reason being something along the line "You'll obey as a payback", though we don't know yet what she owes him (btw, for Irene, it was to allow her to stay together with her sister and the likes...).

I don't think so, Irene was a powerful person but that was it, the Venomous Witch on the other hand is one of the strongest fighters in their world, there is no way Dirk can control her.

[charasu]

hmmm.... but i think same with setsuna, maybe she's been blackmailed,
coz we all know how dirk work
or, she just a battle maniac

[Ophis]

hmmmm seems that she uses a bow and from the looks of that cover she'll probably be the cool beauty type. Something along the lines of Aizu from DanMachi.
She seems to be cool but I did no like her hair style

PS: Is there any info as to what this volume will be about?

You can read a spoiler I translate from mediafactory here: http://setsuna86blog.wordpress.com

Thanks setsuna

After reading that spoiler of volume 6, here's what I think.

Spoiler for Vol 6:

“Come back, Ophelia. The world where you should be is not there”

I think that the one who says this is not Ayato but Julis. When Ayato and Julis were talking about people stronger than Julis in Asterisk, she showed that she somehow had a connection with Ophelia.

Vol 2 Chapter 2

"Oh, speaking of which. I know of one such person. Last year, it was all the news could talk about for days on end. The reigning champion of the Lindvolus, from Le Wolfe. What was her name..."
Ayato hadn't had the least interest in the Festa, but even he'd seen her in the news. She'd already taken the Lindvolus twice, and if rumors were to be believed, she was posed to do that which had never before been accomplished, and take her third as well.
"ーThe EreshkigalVenomous Witch, Ophelia."
Julis suddenly muttered in a tone with repressed emotion.
"Right, right."
Ayato clapped his hands in recognition before noticing Julis' strange condition.
Was she upset? Was she sad? Her face was hard to read.
"Julis...?" Ayato worriedly called out.
Julis broke out of her reverie. "Oh, uh, sorry about that. I was just thinking about some things."
Julis tried to brush past the issue as she she suddenly raised a finger.

They probably came from the same country and it could be that Ophelia was part of the orphanage that Julis is currently trying to help. The reason that Dirk has Ophelia under leash could very well be related with this.

What do you guys think?

You're right. It makes sense. Another one has also emits of the hypothesis that she was part of the orphanage.

BTW, who do you think is older between Julis and Ophelia?

[Ophis]

I think it's Ophelia. She gives off an onee-sama vibe~

[rickiminato]

anything summary of the volume 6

[digitalak27]

Any news on volume 7?

[bakato]

Unfortunately, due to Bahamut's raging popularity, this thread's pretty much dead until Setsuna finishes the three volumes on Bahamut and any Madan that pops up.

I don't think Setsuna will do the 3 volumes of Bahamut before Gakusen vol 6. At the very least, I hope not.

[Richocet]

Yeah I would at least like to know what happened in vol 6

Considering the landslide it won by going by the last poll, if Setsuna puts it to a vote then it's not looking too good for Gakuen.
