Now, the human brain is a strange thing. I won't go into scientific detail but it's basically a mass of synapses and neurons that carry electric impulses called action potential to every part of our body and determines responsiveness and such. Now, what is commonly associated with electricity? You got it - Vectors. To go into To Aru science mixed with a bit of real world science - The Brain has been proven to have some sort of electronic imprint over time. This is because when a human has settled into a routine, these habits are 'burned' into the brain as subconscious impulses and a network of these impulses flow frequently enough to form a imprint - a 'Brain Wave'. Some scientists speculate that these are actually the real 'Ghosts' that people see - 'Amplified Electro-imprints' that keep repeating whatever has been ingrained into your subconsciousness. But I digress, Accelerator asked for a map of Last Order's Brain Wave prior to the virus infection. This is simple - the virus forcefully alters Last Orders brain wave patterns, essentially altering her set 'eletro-imprint'. What Accelerator did was simply use the fact that electricity operates on vectors to forcefully stop the overwrite process and revert the impulses back to their original form. The proof here is that if Last Order got infected, the other SISTERs would follow suit. They are connected via a Brain Wave network, which means that first and foremost, the administrator's 'Brain' determines whatever external data they receive. This is where we come to cancer cells. Cancer is a mass of cells that have started to grow uncontrollably, becoming malignant and tumourous. It's like a mutation which Accelerator cannot stop because they don't use any mathematical calculations - Scientists can only speculate how long cancerous cells can spread based on data. He can stop the spread, maybe. But that's only if he knows where they are. Accelerator can't stop aging nor can he heal people - Last Order is proof of that. He reverse-engineered the magic spell using imaginary vectors - which are vectors that use rules beyond that of the science we know. He didn't compute it - He altered it to suit his purpose. |

Recognizing cancer cells by its atomic movements? Do you realize how much things there is inside a cell? There's no way Accel can do it, if there is a tumor he may destroy it, but even in his deepest dream he will be able to recognize normal cells to cancer cells that didn't develop. Like asking him to recognize a cell infected of AIDS, if there's a change at the DNA level he can't do a thing. You will have to explain me in what ways vectors can be useful in this situation, otherwise it's a no no. On a side note, the thing with LO was pretty fucked up and was probably one of the few moment where Kamachi messed up real science, you can't use this to say "if he did this with LO he can do this with other thing" it's a fallacy. |

Yes because you are trying to use a scientifical argumentation (how he can recognize cells etc etc ) when the character itself is broken, if you want to play the game and simply follow the "vector control" power he can't do it.
Remember that when LO asked him why his hair were white, he answered that because of his power, his molecular balance was off, if he was so god like that you seem to think - he would just to control it- why doesn't he do it? He doesn't want? Maybe he is particularly lazy after all, but the possibility that he can't is more relevant.* Now there's the straight way to do it : Accelerator is god himself, he wants to nuke a country? He can do it so why can't he even nuke a little tumor. At this point I will tell you yes. *By the way, if you follow this way of thinking, he can't stop his aging too since he can't mess with his telomere. |

Oh boy, here we go again...
Recognize cells? By getting a concept of how a normal cell is, even our world science can recognize cancerous cells. Solar rays? He said it, it was his unconcious doings, if its harmful it gets blocked. The melanine is used to resist such harmful rays, if there is no harmful rays then there is no need for melanine and his skin coloration gets useless, same with his skinny body since there is no need to use his own strenght his muscles didn't need to develop that much. Nuke a country? He always was a loner, does he even care about others before? He just wanted to be alone. Is the aging harmful? No, then there is no need to stop it. To your previous post: Quote:

As long as those three conditions aren't meet, it's not really a cancer. How can you say it's not related to DNA? Quote:
I will stop here, as you said doing this is not interesting on the internet, if you want to think Accel-chan can cure cancer, feel free to do so. |

I believe it all depends on how esper power works.
First approach is that esper is like a battery, I call this the game method (as it is similar to principes used in games). He constantly emits a small amount of power, but most of the power is still stored inside. That small amount of emited power works like a sensor that recieves inputs from outside and delivers them back to brain. Of course it only recieves inputs from relevant particles, energies, wawes.. (in accel case all of them). This is then procesed inside his brain and when he recognizes something as harmfull, he then emits a stronger amount of power, that reflects it. (why I compared it to games, is that in games you see enemies in that mini radar and when they are dangerous, you attack them using strong spells) but this aproach has a fatal mistake - accel was capable of reflecting UV rays no prob, but the amount of light particles hitting body exeeds the amount of brain cells The second aproach is the lightbulb aproach. Esper is like a lightbulb that constantly emits light (AIM). The lightbulb does not run out of energy. The principe is that esper calculation ability is like putting a colored paper or some item in front of the lightbulb , it changes the color of light or its shape. This actually strains the brain to a certain extent, so after a while the esper will be tired unable to use his power, but even so, the lighbulb will be still shining. If this is a correct aproach, then accel's autoreflect just constantly changes the shape/color of the light, which should be easy, as you don't have to calculate every single particle, but only the pattern. DNA contains something about 70MB of computer data, which should not be problematic for him to analyze and create apropiate pattern for. |

Also, its not the ability to grow without growth factors, it could also be an imbalance of Growth Factors and of Apoptotic factors. Then again, this isn't the place for this and I wouldn't be surprised if a Mod deleted it

Do you honestly want to get into this?
Very well. Quantum Mechanics also known as Quantum Theory is merely deviation from classical physics, wherein it gives a plausible explanations for things that cannot be explained using classical mechanics. I say plausible because the field of Quantum Mechanics is always subject to change and the usage of the Quantum Theory itself is to allow humans to derive an understanding of how the world around us operates on a Quantum level. However, it is only a theory. We can only speculate how things work on a Quantum level by using results and deriving an answer that best explains it and it, in turn, opens up more realms of possibility for us to explore. Unit Vectors are used to represent the possible states of quantum mechanical system. There is a reason why quantum mechanics is commonly associated with probability. Because that's what it is - A probable way of how the universe around us works. Of course, I haven't picked up a book on quantum mechanics in ages and my knowledge is derived from my friend who has an absurd interest in the field. So I could be wrong but eh. EDIT: Further elaborating - since in To Aru, our so-called theories is apparently how the universe at large functions, since Accelerator is close to godlike with the nature of his power, However, even then, Accelerator has shown that there are limits to what he can do with Vector Change since Unit Vectors are merely assigned probabilities. Mutating cells and malignant tumors maybe on a Quantum Level but the probability aspect has been completely stripped away. How Vector Change works, to me, is that it alters the probability input assigned to the object that he touches and he merely alters the equation as he sees fit. As Kihara Amata has shown, by throwing a wrench into his calculations, he can cause the entire equation to be jumbled up and make Accelerator lose control of whatever he's doing. However, Imaginary Vectors, in my humble opinion, works like this - If it's a theory, Accelerator screws the equation and changes it to what he wants. In that case, he makes a 'theory' into 'something proven' or 'something that works' despite the fact that it may ignore the laws of classical physics and whatnot because that's what quantum theory is. Ergo, that's how he was able to comprehend something he wasn't able to understand (Magic) but Imagine Breaker apparently fell outside the laws of even Imaginary Vectors.

Dark Matter on the other hand, appears to have a set probability. Think about it this way - when Kakine Teitoku 'creates' Dark Matter, he has to assign values to it in order for it to do what it wants. What Accelerator did was probably to 'update' his Personal Reality to include calculations of matter that had values which did not fit probable quantum calculations that he knew and turned it against Teitoku, since Dark Matter at base, is still reliant on vector calculations. However, cancerous growth doesn't work like that. It's uncontrollable, unpredictable. Quantum theory works on it being, well, predictable. I'm not saying that he can't control it, mind you. I'm merely saying he can't stop cancerous growth. |

In a less malignant way, if he found out how to change its settings he would just have to make it so Imagine Breaker can target normal values as well. Then there's go reality. Gravity is being annoying right now? Break it. Touma appears to have his doubts about Birdway's explanation though. |

That would make his power a paradox. Power that cancels everything supernatural can exist only if the said power is natural. Something like the powers that fix the supposed micro cracks in space (heard this somewhere on discovery channel). Imagine breaker would be a power that fixes this universe by removing the cracks created by supernatural powers (stuff that should not be here). If it would cancel out even natural powers, it would cancel itself. And a power is a power, unless part of it is sealed, it is always complete, even if the user don't have full control of it. If it had potential to cancel natural stuff, it would already canceled itself. And if it has the potencial, then what is that power, if it's neither supernatural, nor natural... imaginary?
