NT2 set a Dengeki Bunko record for most copies sold in one week by selling 158,602 copies over 5 days (10th through the 14th). It beat out Oreimo 8, which sold 151,194 copies the first week. Oh, and the SP sold 60,018 copies btw.

I don't think she actually did it though For starters, you're gonna need surgery...

In any case, Kamijou resident is still holding a twelve year old girl against her will! What would the neighbors think!?

I know 7000 copies is actually alot, but relative to their total, it doesn't seem that big of a gap between 158k and 151k

Only half way there to beat Haruhi !

That shippers are a pain in the ass.

Don't get me wrong I am a Kamikoto fan but I don't want to follow a series over a pairing that might not happen.

I remember in another forum some guy go "I think I am the only one that reads ToAru to see Misaka and Touma getting it on"

I was like"what?"

Worst-sama found the parts in Freshmen strongholds. Someone made them specifically for Kuriyori and you know it -_-

Yeah but it sounds like you're taking a hostile stance to any comments related to pairing

Matty hasn't said anything out of line, and it's not the first time people didn't know Index's age and height details so there's nothing wrong with that.

How could they be made for her if she only modified her arms ?

To the translators: there are no words. This is amazing: you guys translated an entire novel in less than a week, and it's an excellent translation as well. Thank you thank you thank you.

Kanzaki seems to caught the lecturing habit from Touma, but got cut a bit short.

After this volume it seems clear Kamachi's having fun trolling his readership a bit (in a good way, but a troll is a troll).

On that assumption, I make a prediction: either Mikoto won't actually make it to Hawaii or she'll go but Index will also be going. Either way Mikoto missed Birdway's lecture and will be needing make-up lessons in magic, and who would be a more appropriate teacher?

Lessar? But she gave up on Mikoto already. Or is Birdway generous enough to give another lecture on magic?

Now that a shipping war's about to break out (as far as I can see), the biggest one being Kamikoto vs. Indexma, what's the mods' take on this?

Touma's policy has always to involve as little people as possible, those allies that fought with him are people who have already gotten themselves involved one-way or the other but Touma himself has never ever asked people for help- the most he ever did was to call up Komoe or Mikoto to ask for information without really involving them.

This is properly illustrated in Vol 16 where even as a broken wreck, Touma never want to involve other people.

As for WWIII, remember that he was prepared to enter Russia all by himself, Lessar came on her own will.
Agreed, Touma has never explicitly asked for help from any person throughout the volumes. People just follow Touma since he is charismatic in a way. Misaka merely said she's going to help Touma even if he doesn't ask for it, also implies that she's going to follow him to Hawaii.

Index might go the Angelican church for awhile though, but probably not now since Touma's back.

Kuroyoru is probably traumatized by Touma in the bathroom lol. Birdway and Touma might bring along her with them to Hawaii since they can't leave her alone there, she might turn out to be very useful for them.

Hamazura's harem will just stalk him all the way to Hawaii, Takitsubo has the 'Hamazure detector', Mugino's quite the yandere stalker, and Kinuhata has her own methods too. Their excuse will be to make sure Hamazura doesn't cheat on them.

Accerator he might just ditch LO and WORST, then suddenly disappear like always. The other Members of GROUP will coincidentally met each other in Hawaii, knowing Tsuchimikado he probably goes there every so often to buy his notorious shirts.

Birdway's brief speech with Touma and the Author's afterword are clear hints of foreshadowing that the upcoming novels will have much darker plots and themes. That maybe the reason why Kamachi-sensei put so much comedy in NT volume 2.




P.S. Btw editing is mostly done for the NT2 epilogue now. Hayate06 is the only translator working on this though, his speed is legendary even on Baka-Tsuki.

I just don't see happening with Index, she's more like a little sister character than a romance interest.

I mean, unlike Mikoto and Itsuwa, she was never a maiden-in-love

I am extremely wary of Kamachi when it comes to the spotlight of his female characters... God and Aleister knows what he would do... Or rather what he wouldn't make them do

This might be radical thinking, but I'm not sure if Accelerator or Hamazura would take part in this trip to Hawaii. I'm sure they would join the Gremlin fight, but it's not like they would need to jump right into this particular one.

I think it would be good for them to spend the between-the-lines segment of NT3 sorting out their feelings and thoughts with their individual 'families' before officially getting involve in the fight.

And assuming the Hawaii arc last long enough for two books, we might see the return of Group.

This new enemy might be one that cannot be reasoned with- Not even the RCC was crazy enough to destroy the World for one boy, and Fiamma had a big noble goal for starting WWIII.

I can't believe someone actually posted something like this in here Oh well, each to their own

Btw, I don't really understand what happened in the epilogue. Did accelerator and Hamazura not going to Hawaii with Touma?

I don't see anything wrong except the misunderstanding about Index's age- it's apparently not a well known fact that both her and Mikoto actually share the same age, with Index being only slightly shorter...

...Compared to the declaration of love I've seen from others, he was downright civil

What Kami said, they're thinking about it.

Which is why I brought up the possibility that they might not be going to Hawaii next volume, at least not with Team Kamijou.

I've read the article on GREMLIN on the Wiki, and I wonder what Birdway meant when she pertains to Mjolnir and GREMLIN as "they" or "them". Is it possible that we are to encounter non-human enemies this time?

Also, Volcano Gods as the next Big Bad for Hawaiian Tou-ma, anyone? Imagine breaker him, Shiage and Accelerator surfing a huge lava tidal wave while fending off the volcano attacks.

To be honest this is what I want to see happen give those two some time to figure things out for themselves. Some self discovery over what Birdway said about them and shizz.

But I also think Kamachi might just shove them out onto the frontline straight up, I mean beyond the name of the organistaion Hamazura and Accel may want to know who just tried to drop a flying fortress onto the people they care about =L

Does he even apologized? I won't be suprisd if it ends on backslash for him, like Index going back to UK.

Well, there are a lot of vulcans there so there must be a link.

There is Fiamma's second coming after Aleister "killed" him. Still I wonder what Ollerus mean with "he survived purely because of his ability".

BTW, if we get to fire related legends from Norse story we have Fire-Giants of Musphel with Loki related to them and in the Hawaiian religion, Pele is the godess of fire.

You know, I'm really ashamed about this fiasco of saying that I want to help, only to see hayate06 finish translating the entire volume in 1 week (and to make it worse, I still haven't gotten my copy yet)...

So, erm, sorry guys?
