will we see raishin acquiring/controlling the other 2 sisters as well?

seeing how magnus can control 6(?) at once, it doesn't seem unlikely that raishin would be able to control 3

Atm (I am @ vol 5) he still only has Yaya. Although he has used the two other sisters a few times.
In vol 5 the following dialog happen between Raishin and Komurasaki:

wait, what are the limits to his ability?

is he given the "virtually limitless capability" or "very limited capability, just knows how to be very efficient" persona by author?

Spoiler for vol 5 on Raishin's ability:


His harem grows every volume - which can be a bad thing because it hinders relationship development between existing cast. Frey does not get much time on screen and Henriette only makes the occasional appearance. The good thing is that this novel has pretty much zero fillers - even skipping a month of summer vacation where no fights (except maybe between his harem) has taken place.

Vol 6 has a very cute scene where Charlotte teases Raishin in her swimsuit. Irori also thought Raishin wanted to have sex with her while the two of them are hiding from Yaya.

Is this horn thick or is it thin and sharp like Ichigo's hollow form during his fight with Ulqiorra?

The guy with the mask and six dolls whom Raishin threw the ashes to. He is supposed to be Raishin's older brother whom is a prodigy of the clan. He is the first of the 100 candidates and has the Akabane clan ability. Raishin believes his brother massacre the clan to achieve higher powers. Very similar to Itachi from Naruto.

Spoiler for end of ch3, please bear with my terrible translation:

The last sentence can have multiple meanings. It can be as harmless as Kimberly wondering who in the harem will win at the end, but it can also mean Raishin may be the first to "create human" (the other being Raishin's brother).

The "father", a head of the magician association, believes there is a chance in which Raishin may be a "prophecy child", and if I understand correction, the prophecy child will be the one whom create human - bringing the world to a new age. Of course, Raishin's brother is also a candidate as the prophecy child.

//

There are various factions and powers at work in the novel (from world wide diplomacy to secret organizations). There is this "everyone for themselves" vibe where there is no "absolute good guy". There are moments where one faction (such as Kimberly and even the head master) seem to favor Raishin but they may have their own hidden agenda.

To lighten up the mood a bit: say, if at the end Raishin does "create" human and fulfill the prophecy - then chances is that it will have something to do with Yaya. Although I don't want to see a Yaya route > Charlotte route . Oh wait... this novel takes place back when polygamy is allowed in Japan right? As long the others don't mind...

I honestly hope not, could do without that whole family being "bad" for a good cause nonsense.
Just give evil older brother please!

Going to finish reading vol6 tonight (I feel as if I am rushing through the novels - going to suck having to wait for the next book T_T), I think one key element here is that Raishin may "not" be the prophecy child. It may be his brother, or it might even be someone else.

It has been pointed out that the creation of human (or even something infinitely close to a human) is an act of a god. The knowledge to do so can be catastrophic and desired by many. What if, say, someone else is the child of prophecy and, at the end, Raishin has to defeat that person to prevent world domination?

Spoiler for in vol6:

ah, something tells me that his harem/yaya in particular wasnt too pleased with that?

also: so does raishin start studying that secret technique? or secret even to him?


also also: with magnus/marcus being raishin's brother-you said both have the akabane special technique. has he been using that now or does he think of it as forbidden/shy away from it?

(Since a lot of the conversation is ahead of the current manga chapter, I think we should use the spoiler tag more often)
