Then I shall blame Kamachi for raising my expectations.
This volume is sending the message of shedding away the old self and reborn into a new self. This volume is also the clash of Touma's ego that's at the two polar ends of the spectrum. And overcoming a person's own ego is always a critical element in Abyss crossing. All signs are showing that it's Touma's turn to cross. But what did we get in the end? Still a Touma who is egoistically wrapped in his own distorted heroism. |

Not a excuse. Nothing around Touma is natural in the first place as all of his perils were artificially cooked up by Aleister.
And most importantly, suit Touma is the way he is because the real Touma wanted it that way. No one injected any foreign idea into his brain, nor is suit Touma a third party that just popped out of thin air. You can't excuse this as unatural if all the causes is internal to Touma himself. |

I have given up on Touma long time ago.
But what frustrated me is that this closing volume of NT just reiterate on how much Touma sucks again when we don't need anymore of this. Thus the closure of NT is something meaningless, with misleading false hopes in earlier chapters making you believe there actually might be meaningful changes this time. |

All jokes aside (as you obviously refer to the fight between the Toumas) it is his desires that cause the fight. However, Touma isn't gonna change anytime soon. He'll always be someone who tells others the right way to live their lives in spite of not doing so himself. Its hypocritical but its just something that's not going away soon. I don't think he's a bad character for it but it is a flaw.

I have given up on Touma long time ago as well after he shrugged off everything happen in NT9/10 and only came out with a slight PTSD that lasted for like, 2 volumes.... His develop is lackluster compared to the other 2 main guys but we will have to live with it for now. being hypocritical is kinda a core of his character at this point |
