^ What? Do you want Ragnarök to happen that badly?

'cause my brain is locked up on these points :
Spoiler for these points by js06:

But assuming you're right. Then, how did Fiamma manage to correct the elemental distortions during WWIII without even turning back the time or using IB?

Could you please translate in English 'cause I'm completely lost. Since when could her magic make something 100% sure without the 50-50 restriction just like that ... without even using Gungnir?

Fiamma remembers the correct order of the 4 arch elements. Unlike say, Vento who didn't even recognize her element and angel got reversed. He then have Gabriel forcefully re-order the stars into the right psoition to return the 4 arch elements back to normal.

The water to ornage juice example make sense. Because even Othinus fails at turning water in orange juice at 50%, there is no consequences. She just have to keep on trying until the water becomes the juice.

The water to orange is not the issue, the question that started this is whether the Maijin can return Touma and Index's memories.

Theoretically? 50:50 chance of being able to do anything.

Although then, Ollerus didn't imply but downright stated that restoring the changes done by magic are indeed a memory issue. Why didn't you say that in the first place?

Still, about Fiamma, his "restoration" doesn't necessarily mean a return to what it was but a realignment to how it's supposed to be. I'm not sure how to explain it... If you have a house painted green, then red and then green again it will look similar to how it was, but it won't be the exact same paint coloring it. Well, since my entropy theory is down it really doesn't matter anymore.

You know, I get a bad feeling that what happened with Birdway is going to bite Touma in the ass later.

And as for Aleister and Othinius? The way things are it may not be too surprising that both have similar methods in mind. Who knows what Kreutne may be like after she's grown and "changed"

Af far as Aleister is concerned, the most hilarious scenario we can have is this entire chaos in city might accidently fix his plan and put him right on track.

That would be best....I want to see his expression if that occurs.


His reaction so far is the equivalent of shitting his pants for one as emotionless as him




Anyway, does anyone else think Touma has grown soft in recent volumes?

@Cosmic Eagle: If talking about softer, I don't really think so. He's doing things I never expected him to do in this volume, but eh... when does he never

I definitely never thought he would threaten someone with a drill and not being arrested by anti-skill for cause.

I mean in the past he would just blindly go on ahead and crush everything in his way like a bulldozer.

Here, he wavers more than usual....I wonder if it foreshadows anything

Well, for once he was responsible for a major incident...okay twice. But his failure to save Bersi may have made him more cautious.

On the other hand, we have a woman going around a destroying things to understand them.

Seriously, Anti-Skill rarely uses lethal weapons on the kids and the one time one does, it's touma.

Somewhat unrelated, but is anybody finding themselves hitting refresh like every thirty fifteen ten five minutes in hope of seeing an update to the epilogue? lol

I agree Touma having a hand in the situation of Hawaii and Bagage city did caused a drasic impact on his personality. I believe the what hurt him most out all of this is the fact he believes his actions led to Kihara Kagun death which really haunts him.

I know, that's one of the most shocking turn of events.

But instead of the good guys, I'd say a trigger happy idiot of a noob...

Seriously, there wasn't a "put down your weapon" or even a "freeze", no no no, it was more like a "Ehh!?"*bang*

Here's the answer for those wondering why BT crashes so often when a new novel comes out.
