And I think it's about time that Miyuki gets a proper rival... merely towering over the rest gets boring after a while |

What he meant was that Lina is lacking a brutal killer instinct. She isn't ruthless and merciless (while he in fact is). Had she been, she could have killed him. If anything, this makes Lina more likable to me. |

Though I remember seeing her with twin tails somewhere, but she's very Saber-like.

Lina being mentally weak can mean a multitude of things. Lack of killing intent, love for tatsuya, questioning her motives, confusion, etc Basically, she was not focused into the fight. But this is exactly the same as tat. He did not fight her with the intent to kill but to merely detain. The times he unseals everything and decides to kill is basically a one sided slaughter and only towards larger conflicts such as wars. to be honest, we haven't gotten a word by word translation to how the fight went. Everyone made a big deal about juumonji's apparent victory and how his abilities is a counter to tats. But once you read the translations, its not that big of a deal and it really just translates to tats feeling uncomfortable in the concept of attrition. Nothing about a definite victory or loss. on an interesting side note: there is an interesting fact brought forth that explains maya's "night" ability which is, in a nutshell, getting skewered by light. The "stench of blood" loomed before the magic dissipated. We know her magic does not cause this effect, so it means tats got skewered by magic moving at light speed and regenerated fast enough to nullify the magic. Take it as you will, but quite interesting, I must say. Last edited by bloodyclaws; 2013-02-10 at 05:03. |

Throughout the web arc, Tatsuya and even Lina herself have remarked that Lina's personality isn't really cut out for this kind of covert ops stuff. It's not in her nature. It requires an emotionless and ruthless attitude (which is why Tatsuya, who generally is both emotionless and ruthless, is much more adept at it). In their third battle, Lina could have killed Tatsuya if she had really wanted to. She didn't, and neither did Tatsuya, that's why both are still alive. That's the reason, not "mental weakness". And for the love of god, please no "But if both would be serious, who would win" kind of debates. In fact, I find the disparity between Lina's nature and wishes and what doing her job demands from her quite intriguing to watch, and it makes me like her quite a bit. A welcome change from "Mister Computer" Tatsuya and "Miss Perfect" Miyuki. |

I feel that the debate between Lina and Tatsuya is like trying to argue which country-- who both have nuclear weapons-- will win if they fight each other. Pretty pointless in my opinion, since the one who basically struck first with their nuclear warhead should've won the war. Though I think it's unavoidable to have these kinds of discussion in a series where power levels are prominent
Anyway, when will vol 9 be out?

In the end of arc 6 she is return to USNA with Miyuki and Tatsuya accompany her to Airport. Miyuki said that the next time Lina meet with them, Lina will accept their offering (Tatsuya offer Lina to become his friend and independent from USNA).
