My sources of information are your summaries, but in web arc 1 you mentioned what happens when using decomposition magic on solid objects Spoiler:
So maybe he used strong deceleration magic instead?

There's no way he can cast a magic like that faster than a bullet.
Maybe he just decomposed the bullets completely and regenerated them in his hand. I remember him doing something like that with the bullets he used to destroy the Chinese fleet in Arc 4. |

You seem to forget that decomposition is an innate magic for him. He can activate it faster than the blink of an eye since the magic is seemingly "wired" to his brain. If he wanted to, he most definitely could decompose a bullet in flight. When he used restoration (his other innate magic) in the School Tournament Arc, he was able to activate it so fast that no one was able to even notice it. Remember, the audience include thousands of students and there were a handful of elite experts. Even the two undercover soldiers didn't catch the magic and wouldn't have known it activated if they didn't know about Tatsuya's ability beforehand. Even a person with a trained eye such as Kazuto's couldn't explain what happened.

While his innate magic is a secret, it doesn't matter if no one noticed it. As mentioned, he used those magic in front of people several times, but the audience could never understand exactly what happened.

Did he use Mist Dispersion on his hand? I suppose he did use human decomposition, but I thought MD was referring to more of a pin-point thing rather than human decomposition as a whole. Trident is also human decomposition, after all.
Also, whsie, I don't think he would take the risk if he could avoid it. He will use his restricted magic, but only when he has no other choice to achieve what he wants/must and he can cover it up. He used flash cast against Crimson because it was necessary for victory and he could disguise it with the extremely basic Vibration Magic (I think that's what it was. Too lazy to check). I just don't think he would take the risk otherwise (as in, he could kill the soldier without using Flash Cast). As for Regrowth, he has no choice. It's entirely subconscious unless he stops it. I gave the number as 0.2 (since that's roughly how the math worked out), but it's probably activated in a much shorter time period, since a lot of that 0.2 second time period is spent reading the Eidos. I would say the casting is actually near instantaneous without that reading period, which is why the two soldiers didn't feel a flow of magic. |

I suppose there are elements of that. However I don't necessarily think it's a bad thing. The '(tragic) flawed hero' trope is just as bad. His character does get expounded on extensively later. It's also far more entertaining to read this way. As long as you don't say a word concerning Her Highness, all's fair.

Power-level wise? Definitely yes. Still not sure it's the right label for him though cause he's still super flawed.. He has no strong emotions so he's almost always composed.. but he can't even get properly aroused..
I'm not sure anyone that has any real interest in the opposite gender would ever think of being him as "wish fulfillment" -- this is also bad news for all the people shipping Tatsuya x Anyone. |

Even when Tatsuya performed miracles during the 9 School Tournament, the other 8 schools thought Tatsuya was a Bloom because his shirt was that of a Bloom. Tatsuya may have been popular with the girls of his own school (whom all wondered how the hell Tatsuya was a Weed), but the guys were filled with jealousy and rage. |

There is a SS about Morisaki. It mostly explores his background where we learn that his family is into the security/bodyguard business. He himself became a bodyguard for an American girl as she was chased by Japanese authorities throughout the city. It was a so-so SS. |

There's been one cute scene during the 9 school tournament where some girl participant (I think it was Eimi) was "thanking" the male first-years for "giving Tatsuya to the girls". Morisaki busted a gut and left seething ^_^ ... so, the bloom douches get their just deserts. |
