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.

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?" |

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. Quote:

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? |

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. Last edited by Hiro Hayase; 2011-08-18 at 08:38. Reason: Spelling |

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

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. Quote:

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

js06- the one man show
Teh Ping wanted to help, but realized that js06 would have finished translating before he even gotten his copy Quote:

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.

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

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?
