Touma is not an actual human. Nor does he exist, more like he is a phenomenon. Much like Kazakiri he would be an AIM being. This AIM being has the ability similar to the true Imagine Breaker, however it is not actually anything like the ImagineBreaker, it is somethi far far more petty than that. Kamijou Touma is the AIM personification of all the dark side of the city. He is the coalesced despair, anger, rage and betrayed feelings of all the espers in academy city. That is why in all the times he appears before people, he is always unfortunate. His form of imaginebreaker is merely the will of the oppressed to break the strong, a unique psychic ability derived from the hundreds of thousands of AIM in the city, reverse engineered to break down abilities instead of replicate them.
Or should I say he is the collective hope of the darkside? If you're still wondering, the last few lines are clues to her identity |

Just say its interesting then?
I was doing work on Oriana Thompson, the idea was that it would eventually lead to why she chose her magic name. I believe Lorenzetti, the older nun who handles her, called her a sinner/untouchable. The elements and the colors reference the magic she wields. Unlike Birdway, her magicks are unstable and therefore primal in form so she fought like the fury of nature personified. Please don't tell me this is a development where we learn Kuro is actually a flat-chested girl posing as her dead twin oni-chan. O.o Sorry if I just ramble. I'm on a writing slump right now. |

Hmmm.... Dunno, guess I assumed wrong? XD
about the concept, I thought it was an interesting idea because everyone sees IB as a world/divine/final power. It felt so grand really that it was crushing me under its weight whenever I thought of a way to make it OP or give it something like an upgrade. At the same time I kept remembering how omega wanted an OP Touma. I think back further and remember that scene where Kazakiri is running through the underground rail system, how she remembers her true form and nature as a 'monster'. Finally the idea that tied it all together was the thought of an illusory hero. Because I remember reading a fic that showed Fukiyose being saved by Touma but she didn't know it was him. A hero that appears conveniently and disappears just as suddenly. Someone that appears conveniently when called upon. The idea of making Touma the anti-Kazakiri came from Hyouka explaining how she believed Touma's ability was not esper in nature. I thought that maybe it was esper in nature, but not something integrated in her system purposely because it would harm her? So then I re-explained IB as the coalesced AIM data reverse engineered to break down supernatural phenomena. I actually saw your first idea coming from the first time Kurou said his line, but I like curveballs. So I assumed the uber ridiculous which was something I wondered at around halfway through Kurou whining. |

Nay.
You already said it yourself. Accelerator's reflect did not work, instead it shielded him. In this case, the AIM based IB has the ability to break down supernatural phenomena. The effect may not be exact, but it will still work to some extent. Another thing to note, esper abilities do not work well with magic abilities because esper abilities lack rules that magic has while the opposite also applies. With this logic, accelerator only shields the spells because he is only partially reflecting the vectors his powers can control/are aware of. Similar case for this AIM IB since it breaks down what it can and whatever is left of the spell will either shoot through or fizzle. |

There's also the fact that if IB is still about negation, then shouldn't he delete himself? Like how Hyouka pointed out that if IB is an esper power she would have been instantly deleted(dat paradox)?

And actually, IB is not that special, it may just be Earth's Reset Button, it's on which principle it works that is interesting. |

Okay, I have a new fanfic idea. You need to know about the LN, Kanojo Ga Flag O Oraretara, to understand it though.
Because of something in the Imagine Breaker, Touma can see flags. As in Victory flags, death flags, plot movement flags, friendship flags, and especially romance flags. He tries to keep this a secret because he absolutely knows that Aogami would do everything in his power to kill him for not using the ability willingly or take away the ability. This Touma would be less dense because he knows when girls actually like him because he sees the romance flag on top of their head. I think this would be a good humor fic idea. What do you people think?

This would be a good crossover fic. as for the story that I plan to write. I still don't have that much inspiration/sparkle/motivation to actually write. But you see in LN thread that I can write and it goes haywire if there is a good stimulus that makes me write. For now, I'm still reading fanfic and novels and see if I will get that spark to actually write. Actually I have the spark but I don't know how to get it done or rather the plot is jumping too much and I can't get a consistent story. I don't know if I want a Touma which is like Kiritsugu or a Touma that is still Touma. I just wanted a much gray or jaded Touma as for a fic.

Oh ho? I was actually thinking of another fic idea that could give Touma a Freudian Excuse to be jaded and cynical. This is an idea that I stated earlier in this thread.
Touma is stuck in a Time Loop. He's been through it so many times that he's jaded, cynical, and just about not caring anymore. He's already mastered his abilities and learned so many new things that it's not even funny anymore. Point is: Touma's doesn't care anymore. But something deviates from the standard type of loop. Touma knows that deviations happen that land him in an AU, but this time is different. Someone else gets stuck in the Time Loops and Kamijou has to teach them the ways of the time looper. This character can be any one of the more optimistic or idealistic characters. They're shocked at Touma's cynical behavior and try to get him back to how he used to be. Touma's sense of humor is a bit .... different. He prefers to screw with people's heads by doing completely shocking or nonsensical things. Or twisting words that confuse people. Is that a good way to make a cynical Touma or no? I even have this little fighting style planned for him. His fighting style is like Walter C. Dornez from Hellsing. Razor sharp wires manipulated by his fingers. Funny thing is: He stole the wires from Kanzaki after curb-stomping her.

for steel wires. I also plan to use it in a naruto fic because steel wires or chains are much more malleable than sword. While sword gives badass/gar feel. A proficient user of steel wires would be cutting you down before you even can get near. Plus it can also be use on defense and offense with minor range. Have you read/watch Basilisk? I'm sucker for that kind of ninja while I think most of the ninja in naruto are idiots well except for Itachi. I respect him. Time loop is cool too but I prefer if he wants to save someone and not stuck on it. Just like steins gate or madoka.
