So, Ayato is a weakling when his power is still sealed, and even when his power is released its only for five minute. It looks like there will be a lot of hard fight in the future. But I'm not really clear with the explanation of the seal, can he use his power in short burst rather than releasing his seal fully nonstop? Like using short burst to dash or just before his attack make contact.

That would make more sense as this would explain how he can use abilities multiple times during a single training session. This, however, is one of those areas where J-C-E rears its ugly head. We'd need someone else to clarify...or we'll find out as the story goes on (I haven't read ahead). I apologize if this wasn't clearer, but the difference between the three and five minute limits is that he's still alright after three minutes, whereas five minutes puts him out for the day. |

Just from chapter 2 alone, there are these lines that show he's still far above her (when unsealed): Spoiler:

btw when saya is first revealed she's surprised that Julis was even standing after a duel with Ayato so there's more then enough to suggest that he is far stronger before his real power was revealed. Its funny Ayato's situation is a lot like early naruto. He has this huge power but its sealed inside of him and if that huge power is unleashed he becomes far stronger then everyone else

In a world where "everyone" has a real chance of realizing their dreams - at the cost of others' - you have to ask yourself how far you'd be willing to go to make those dreams come true. This is what the story means when it talks about how the Integrated Enterprise Foundation has warped society's views of morality: they've taught people to put their own goals above all else. In any other shounen series, this would be a very clearly "bad" thing, but in this series, it's much more morally ambiguous, because a lot of those goals are what you'd consider "good", like Julis', for example. My personal opinion is that this is the reason Ayato's sister sealed his powers - to give him an outsider's perspective on all of this. There's a quote attributed to Miyamoto Musashi which goes something like "Justice without power is empty. But power without justice is simply known as violence." Her act of sealing his powers teaches him both halves of this adage: the seal on him teaches him the first part - the value and necessity of power, and the second, because he's been made an outsider, he learns what happens when you have power, but lack the morality and discipline to wield that power correctly. In this sense, she really is "protecting" him by having sealed his abilities - protecting him from the distorted view of power that the Integrated Enterprise Foundation and the Ember Tears have brought on their world. |

My guess would be that Ayato has some hidden power that some bad guys out there, are after.
