the battle will probably take another chapter or max two and than we should be able to wrap up the arc in one or two chapters

so 4 chapters seem quite likely to be the maximum amount of chapters this arc will have, of course only if there wont suddenly pop up something else

We could be missing some pgs like chapter 93 is when it first came out, even if some of the pgs are still missing on some manga sites.

Yes, a new chapter.

So the cyborg is pissed off because she has no soul. Interesting.

[LazyHunter]

I liked the idea of an unbound soul, but I guess if it were that way Mikoto would need a Deus Ex Machina to defeat the Doppelganger, so the reveal about her powers makes sense.

ch94

a lot of stuff was said, mostly useless things,

at least misaka finally reached the ship and confronts the cyborg, seems like the reason she is doing ths stuff is so that she can gain a soul

that pretty much everything :/

[desrtsku]

Sorry, just recently caught up with Railgun. So where in the timeline is this exactly? Before or after Acqua?

[Kuroageha]

It should be after Acqua.

ch95

this arc went quite a faaaar shot away from the initial premise XD

seems like the AI's big plan is to kill a lot of humans...quite a boring goal if im honest, understandable but boring :/

anyway, the AI doesnt have a soula and the reasearcher guy wasnt able to accept it, for once it wasnt a kihara

the AI is dead and the reasercher shot the other girl...not like i give a f*ck, she had really little screentime anyway :/ than the reasearcher runs away and the mind-girl takes control over him, from ehr words she seems to be able to f*ck up with other peoples memorys too,

the final was...quite a letdown, i hoped for misaka being forced to actually "kill" someone, it didnt happen, the AI wanted to be destroyed the whole time and the the robot repeatedly assured that it was just misaka destroying a object, not killing a person...so she stays "clean"

sigh, at least a better arc than the cr*p that accels manga is pulling out of his ass for 30+ chapters

[Marcus H.]

Nope, mass destruction wasn't the Doppelganger's plan. The fuel tanks were there to bait the AC military to destroy her asap. All she wanted was to destroy herself, her creator and all the data that's needed to reconstruct her.

It was all because she had no soul.

It's a stark contrast to 0930, where an obvious monster was given humanity by Touma.
I bet Touma would hate to see this happen.

That said, I do think that the arc was somehow sidetracked by other things. I kinda not like how the Dream Ranker cards were just a means to an end. I hope the story continues because there are still some things related to the cards that are only glossed over.

Dude what 's your problem with killing anyway? Do you want the MC to kill people that much? This is Misaka we are talking about, not Accelerator. If you want to see MC killing othes then there would be others manga out there for you, stop bringing your preference to this man.

do i need to like every development??
exspecially if the story made the final look like it will go into sucha direction,
than a sudden twist and the AI making a statement that makes the burden on misaka as low as someone "just throwing away a object" -_-

anyway, still better than accels final...

[LazyHunter]

Now the Doppelganger's motives and her wanton destruction make more sense. I'm not surprised she went down so easily, once it was revealed she was just an AI in a cyborg body her chances against Mikoto dropped dramatically.

I really like that last scene with her, Mikoto and Kuriba. Shame the guy had to ruin it, but the ending of Kuriba being saved with her previous artificial parts is very fitting.

[LazyHunter]

Good for the scavengers, they have their rank back. It's nice to see a darkness group that can get along. Poor Seike, though.

[Marcus H.]

This is the first time the liaison of a Dark-Side organization has been revealed, right?
GROUP, BLOCK and SCHOOL(maybe) have a male liaison and both ITEM and Scavenger have female liaisons.

By the way, interesting thing we have with the reveal on Dark-Side organization rankings.

Sooo, the story will switch to the POV of Scavenger this time?

[DragonXX]

I feel bad for Kuriba because we know very well that her Mother is not going to get what need to save her because from NT4 we know very well AC will not let any of there science out. Meaning they use Kuriba and will not help her mother. So she may do stuff in later Arcs because AC is Asshole City.

[Marcus H.]

That's easy to solve: put Kuriba's mother in Academy City.
My main issue was that how the rest of the worldbuilding connected to the Indian Poker cards was discarded in favor of Kuriba's story.

[LazyHunter]

I'm glad the Doppelganger is still around. As part of Kuriba's subconscious, but still. Not glad about the chapter length or the hiatus, though, I hope Fuyukawa rests like he needs to and comes back with enough strength.
