Accel World - Light Novel Discussion

[Sean Gaffney]

For those following the English releases from Yen On, after a brief break the series now seems to be four times a year rather than three, so we should see Vol. 10 by June 2017.

[saiku]

So volume 21 cover is out and we got Metatron on it BTW seems like the figth is getting real. Volume´s titled Snow Fairy and it seems it is the name of one of the Seven Dwarfs

[HAXXOR]

Spoiler for "Sypnosis" vol 21.:

Well, what I could understand from the clusterfuck english of google trans, is that when NN was fighting OU (more precissely, when Haru was fighting with Glaciar Behemoth, one of the seven dwarfs) an avatar appears in the roof of a building and execute an attack and the world started to change. The avatar is Orchid Oracle (RL identity: Megumi, friend of KYH), the one that appears in the anime and change the scenario into a beach or something. Haru couldn't tell what was happening, so he goes with Metatron to the highest level to understand what was happening and she say to him that the avatar who was changing the scenario should have leave the AW long ago. But when they where in highest level, another avatar appears, named Snow Fairy, another one of the seven dwarfs. She tries to interrupt the mental connection of Haru and Metatron. Then Sky Raker realizes the plan that OU has had throughout the battle: not to beat them, but to trow them into the Aggro area of an enemy so they may end up in EK state. Then apparently Niko and KYH appears in the Unlimited Neutral Field to save them. Also, I think it's important to note that in vol 20, KYH and Niko were in RL waiting until the battle is over and NN has taken over OU territory to check if there are any ARS avatars on the duel list. While they where waiting, KYH recognizes Megumi who was kind of spying them and so she decided to follow the bus where Megumi was, that's why they reach the Unlimited Neutral Field just in time to save the others.

Spoiler for Megumi:

Well, in the first volumes, 4 or 5, KYH was talking with Haru about the healers, she said that only two healers have appeared in the aw since the beggining: one is a lvl 9 king (WC) and the other one is an avatar that deliberately abandoned AW because of the unending conflict, I think there is a huge possibility of that avatar beeing OC, and when you delete BB from the neurolinker, instead of losing all your points, a copy or a way of access remains hidden somehow in the neurolinker. Another one explanation is WC basically hacking the system jaja, she did that with Red Rider fluct light and glue it to ISS Kit main body to use his ability and create more ISS Kits, and also with Noumi's fluct light and cerberus II. But as you can note the limit of that ability may be that the fluct light needs to be attached to the body of another burst linker to be able of using its abilities, so to Megumi being able of use paradigm revolution she will need to be attached to another burst linker body and I don't think that's the case because the vol explicitly said that it was a feminine avatar on the roof.
I think is more likely that she is still able of using BB due to what i said first since KYH and Niko saw her on RL and I don't think WC reeincarnation can also hack life haha

Spoiler for megumi:

And since she is KYH's best friend, SYH must have known of her and Cosmos might even be the one who defeated Oracle, which contributed to Megumi supposedly leaving BB. As a result, Megumi is somehow tied to SYH, similar to how Chiyu was tied to Noumi in the Dusk Taker Arc. Maybe she enlisted SYH's help in getting rid of Haru so she can have KYH all by herself? *Yuri goggles on*

I have been thinking since the beginning that Oracle is probably the second healer avatar KYH mentioned way back. Think about it. The three known healers of the Accelerated World have stupidly broken special abilities only they possess.

Cosmos - Invisible to everyone who is not a King, can revive allies and possibly restore BB accounts of fallen Burst Linkers via hacking

Bell - High defense for a support BL, Time reversal, UNF beast summoning

So if Oracle is the second healer avatar mentioned by KYH way back (with Bell being the third one), then her ability to change stages would fit her in!

Later volumes might delve into this issue and reveal whether or not Megumi/Oracle is really working for SYH/Cosmos at the moment, and for what reason she is doing so.

Interesting.

Spoiler for Cosmos:

WC ability is not to be invisible, but to hide her avatar behind a light that covers all of her body so anybody can see the weakness in her avatar or to avoid close range avatars. Also the kings cannot see her, in the novel its said that the kings have saw her, but is because in the novel she did attended the first meeting of the kings where Lotus kill Rider, but in the anime is Ivory Tower the one who is there. Also, I dont think that Cosmos defeated Megumi but Megumi being a part of the White Legion before she abandoned the AW, that may explain how Cosmos know her and how she was able to manipulate her. Im hype to see Comos debut on the novel, Reki should have really made an illustration of her avatar surronded by the light back in vol 7 or 6

i skipped this can you explain me the UNF beast summoning

[judasmartel]

Spoiler for summoning:

Bell acquired an Enhanced Armament which allows her to summon low-level beasts from the Unlimited Neutral Field, thus allowing for tactics like Zerg Rush on the enemy legion as Raker/Maiden and Crow/Lotus prepare for Nega Nebulus' patented ICBM tactic, where a flying avatar carries a super-strong offensive avatar with them and then drops on top of the enemy legion either Maiden just as she finishes casting her OP special attack, or Lotus so she can skip through the opponents' tanks and slice everything behind them.

[saiku]

So i got this from the russian scans, not the best translation but i did my best.



there are some names i could'nt translate, but these are the Prominence, there's a group of former Rider's legionaires, around 13 Linkers and its elite named Triad or V3

[judasmartel]

Do you foresee a civil war in Prominence between Rain's group and Rider's old group once Rain has her BB uninstalled?

[moondragon84]

Man, where is this even going, so many new characters, i wonder if Reki can do something with them.

After the movie, all the kings seems still allive at this point and yet more characters, move on to elimination allready and reach that damn lvl 10 so the characters can move on with their lives.

[saiku]

I dont think so but some dont trust 100% in Lotus

Spoiler for Prominence condition:

There are 13 former members of Rider´s Prominence. One of them Vermillion Canon, stated in name of those 13 as the leader of the Rider's former elite Triad, that they would agree with the merge with a condition. And that was to prove solid evidence that what happened to Rider would'nt to Niko. Cyan Pile and Magenta Scissor stood and revealed theyre connection to the ISS Kit incident (Taku grew a pair) and said that in case of Lotus were to harm Scarleth Rain in order to achieve lvl 10, they could use a card containing all the Burst Point that he took from Remnant Supernova, he said that he have'nt used them because he did'nt wanted those dirty points and asked his Legion Master, Lotus said to keep them, they may come in handy someday. So he stated that Prominence could use those points, wich were enough to lvl up someone in order to punish not only Lotus but himslef too, Magenta also offered herself as sacrifice.Vermillion looked the card and gave it to Blood Leopard, so if anything happens she would execute the punishment to which she agreed.

[saiku]

So i notice also that prominence has 3 groups inside of the Legion:
Triplex: current elite group.
Cassis Moose
Thistle Porcupine
Blood Leopard
Triad: older elite group.
Vermillion Canon
Mauron Motor
Carmine Canon
Heliosphere: these girls are idols and sell recording to the whole Accel World.
Blaze Heart
Freeze Tone
Cream Dream

Spoiler for Merge result:

The merge was successfull, Lotus ended as the Legion Master after winning against Nico in rock, scissors, paper. After logging out KYH felt that Nico lost on purpose.

[saiku]

Haru's health made my day in the first chapter. the merge was agreed to be held in nakano park. Haru got a heat stroke on the way and was attended by most of the girls in Nega Nebulus

If Haru is already surpassing Touma-level harem-making skills in his current figure, I dread to think how overpowered would it be once he loses weight and becomes more handsome.

It already surpassed him, Haru's is affectionate and high quality unlike Touma's casual and circumtance timed events.

Well, Touma is screwed whoever he chooses anyway, hence the casualness when dealing with his harem. Haru OTOH is simply a kind-hearted affectionate high-quality guy any girl can fall for, but only if they can get past his cholesterol-filled body and the fact that he is The One Just for KYH and Only KYH.

See what I did there?

While Touma's harem exceeds Haru's in sheer numbers (it's literally OVER 9000), Haru's no doubt exceeds Touma's in SHEER QUALITY.

[saiku]

Lol they were faster with these illustrations.




yes this is snow fairy

[judasmartel]

Who are these? Is that White Cosmos on the third pic?

I only recognize KYH, Niko, Chiyu, and Metatron.
