I feel like everyone is joking though.

Lol... What's on the other side of the coin? Politeness?

" are you people disgustingly petty," -yep

"I used to believe we were the more sensible half of the franchise's fanbase,
" more sensible half of the franchise's fanbase"

hahaahaha

you are a funny person, man :heh

"Just both sides of the same coin"
actually, we are worst because we hide our fanboyism / "rabid feeling/self" through pretty words/high level debates and smilies"

That's because SH actually cover an entirely new plot with an entirely new set of protagonist. Can't compare a sequel with a series continuation under new title. Just imagine New Testament with a completely new protagonist with no direct connection to the old Index(kihara, aleister, 7 level 5 only as cameo) and you can imagine why the sales drop that much.

Is it really? I thought Mikado was pretty much MC still. I didn't know, thanks.

That explains quite a bit. How did Vol 13 do then?

That's why I say the friendzone killed Mikado, who died a virgin.

Wow I really have been out of touch with DRRR if I didn't know there was a new MC. Though that does explain a lot.

I could say that is true and I had a bad day, but this isn't the first time I've seen you people let your blind hatred for something cloud your judgement and make you say stupid things like "I hope the sales suck cause that'll show them!" or "Miki is to blame for all the stuff I don't like!" or that most ironic "good things happen to good series, bad things happen to series in decadence" so forgive me if I'm a little jumpy around you guys whenever you make these kinds of statements.

But yeah this is going off topic so just take it that I overreacted which is fine, I hope that's the case.

Edit: I almost forgot the classic, "railgun would skip the sisters arc because people can't handle it!"

As for Index III and the 11th announcement: I have this big theory on why the 11th announcement could be Index III. And why they trolled us on OCT 5TH. But, that would need its own thread, and it would take me around a day or two to get all the info, and write it down.

BACK ON TOPIC: It's nice to see NT11 selling good (:.
I for one would like to hear this theory of yours in regards to Index season 3

Ok, but how would I post it? If I post a thread about, it's going to get locked.

If the mods let me post a thread about it. Then sure, I post my crazy theory (:.

It might take me the weekend to post it.

People appear to be a bit pissed off, but I'm guessing that the number after this number will likely stabilize.
