I suppose this is just the part of me inside hoping that by using any other language, we'll get more clues about their organization, every their main language could tell you alot about them. For example in a certain other Light Novel, there was a hint earlier that the bad guys faction speak mostly Japanese and German, which later turns out to be a big hint about their faction.

But like I've said, it's just my opinion.

I see that Kamachi is a good friend of yours.

[Breidaluk]

NT2 is complete. Now, back to crazy theories and investigations, searching for clues in the others volumes.
Do you think in NT3 "return of the winged one" will appear again? Freshmen will pair with Kamijou and company? Touma will raise Umidori's flag? Maybe.
Anyway, be patient and wait for NT3.

Mikoto Awakens.

Anyways, Leivinia trolling Aleister was wonderful. Aiwass might have found a partner.

I'm interested in Touma's 'second death' that really catches my attention and on what Kamachi said about him going the incorrect route.

Did Touma learn nothing at his second trip to Tiger Dojo?

[I_am_Kami]

I liked the ending a lot. Touma saying he wants to know the truth of his power made me a bit hard.

[Breidaluk]

Do you think Beverly Seethrough will appear in NT3?

[Chaos2Frozen]

Wow wow, where to begin? Even though Academy City won WWIII, it felt like Aleister had lose something even bigger... And to the point where he doesn't make a move for even the simplest things? This might be what Aiwass referred to when it said that Aleister is not the type to stand up after being knocked down...

The last scenes with Touma and Index/Mikoto were nice, not as heartfelt as I would liked but I've come to accept certain things from Kamachi and heartfelt moments are not one of his strong points (You guys greatly-over-exaggerate Accelerator and Last Order scenes ), Mikoto coming along is all be certain and I'm pretty sure Touma won't forget that he's still the legal guardian of Index so he would have to bring her too (Not that Index would allow him not to) but what about Accelerator and Hamazura? I can't imagine them putting their important girls in harm's way- Last Order have no business to be on the battlefield and Hamazura would never want to drag ITEM back into the Darkness... Well, not unless they beat the crap out of him and force him to...


And well, for those who wants a more proactive Kamijou Touma... Merry Christmas

(Even Birdway was impressed by his character )

And what's this about Second Death? What are you hiding in that coconut of yours Kamachi...?

[I_am_Kami]

I think the Touma and Mikoto scene was dine well. Especially when she smiles or basically the first part. If it were animated you would go "oh shiiiiit" when she says he isn't alone.

Mah, seven days later from when that image first posted and the spoilers first revealed, I guess I've already soaked up all the loving, any more and it's abit naggy and Kenju would explode...

What I wanted and had hoped for was Touma hugging Index at the end of it... Not really as a romantic scene, but you know... It would be nice to say he's back.

Not just magicians, even the Queen's servants, who are normal people, speak Japanese (that was a WTF moment for me.)

But yeah, it's cool when the language plays a role.

BTW... that rendezvous at the iron bridge seemed a lot like a confession.

Probably not.

But I do wonder if we'll see a mermaid... it wouldn't surprise me at this point...
What the heck was that beastgirl?

That was unexpected. Also, the way Birdway (I still can't get used to it) spoke to him almost makes him seem like a good guy

The protagonists wouldn't drag them. But Worst and the ITEM girls could probably sneak into Hawai on their own.

The way he explained it, I'm most certain he's referring to great change (as in Death in the tarot) The first time was when he lost his memory, the second now that he gained determination and initiative.

That would be a nice change... but I guess he got enough "skinship" with the usual head bite.

[Daft]

So Touma finally wants to know more about his right hand? I hope he runs into Fiamma soon so we can talk all about those issues.
It would be funny if he could give Fiamma a spare right arm seeing as how he can just regrow it, and how Fiamma assimilated it before... lol.

It depends a lot on how they do the animation... eg, if they cue the ending music with her taking his hand the effect could be improved... Considering how much producers value Mikoto, they'll probably use all they can for a better impact. That is, if the anime does reach this stage.

LOL, the thing is that even if he gave "a spare" to Fiamma, it would just decay in a matter of seconds, like before.

That Iron Bridge is a big part of their relationship after all.

It's funny how compared to other fantasy stories, we haven't actually seen alot of mythical creatures, mostly Angel and Golems, and yet people are already unsurprised at this point

Nobody's ever a bad guy in toaruverse... Not if you lived, lol

It's not the same though, the atmosphere was totally the right setup for it as well. But like Mikoto's scene later, the Author just doesn't seem to want to commit more

Biagio is still alive

[I_am_Kami]

Doeskin of iron bridge iirc Mikotos favorite movie has to do with love on an iron bridge right?

I agree, right then when Index was telling him how much she worried, it was almost mean of him not to hug her... but as you said, no commitment...

The beauty of the iron bridge scene is that he can leave it as just Mikoto joining the team, or he can recon it later into something more... But I gotta say, I hate how ambiguous Kamachi leaves the romance (I don't particularly care if it's Mikoto or someone else, but it would be nice for one of the harem to be able to get through.)

LOL, yeah... “An Iron Bridge is a Sign of Love”

[I_am_Kami]

I think the reason Kamachi can't do much on Romans is because the shippers for Index, Itsuwa, and especially Mikoto. If he shows too much for Mikoto kenju will rage. If he goes towards the other two the Mikoto fans will rage. It his fault for making such a good pairing. On a certain Internet toilet Misaka and Touma are the number one in "Just Fu$k Already".


Also iirc. He said it himself he wasnt planning much on romance. We have seen it before that he can do Interactions.

[leukrota]

Well, he doesn't write much romance, but he sure teases a lot...

Oh, BTW, I know my mind just went to the gutter, but does anyone else find what the catgirl said a bit too much?:

“Ohh, Kamijou Touma. It’s Kamijou Touma. I don’t really care about you, but make kitty purr!”
