Read some parts on baka Tsuki since they added TAMNI to the menu but i find it strange that they started to translate volume 12. Isn't it better to resume where the anime left and translate volume 7? Not that i complain though, i'm already happy someone started to translate.

Well, as the description already pointed it out, Index and Tōma were summoned by the Queen of England to investigate some explosion at the Eurotunnel. Originally, both of them were supposed to go in a sonic jet, but due to what happened to them on volume 11, they decided to wait for the next plane. Only Sphinx took that plane.
On England, Itsuwa heard Tōma was coming; so, she went to the airport with high hopes. Since, he didn't show up she became a bit depressed, and started drinking. Tatemiya saw her drinking (without realised the fool mood she was in), and decided to play prank on her. He told the other Amakusas to tell her Tōma was still coming, and was arriving to her place to pick Sphinx up. Itsuwa panicked after hearing this, since she looked terrible and smelled of alcohol. She saw a silhouette of a man with spiky hair and almost fainted, but when she realised it was Tatemiya she became angry and sent him flying away. (There was also a part in which Itsuwa was sulking over Kaori cosplaying for Tōma on the previous volume. So, in order to strike back, she started browsing through the Internet and found a "Great Elemental Spirit/peep-maid costume". I'm not sure if this happened before the airplane event, or after. We were also told she's under 18.) Anyway, back to Index and Tōma, their plane got hijacked, but Tōma managed to stop it. However, Index got almost killed, which caused Tōma to become enraged, to the point in which he had an urge to kill the hijacker. Anyway, Mikoto and Himegami barely showed up. Oriana Thompson reappeared in this volume, now working for Necessarius. New characters were introduced: - The Queen Elizard - The 3 princesses: Riméa, Carrisa and Villian. - The witch Smartveri A new magical organisation called "The New Light" was introduced. This organisation was composed by four girls: Beyloupe, Lessar, Rancis, and Floris. I'll quote Ken on the rest: Quote:

Wait, there no Prince Charles and even Prince William and Prince Henry in the Index's Britain? That's gonna piss the prince's fangirls and those hoping a future joke involving the real-life royal family.
Anyway, no one has still answer my relationships question. Won't someone help me?

Anyway, Index's Britain is different, as it should be obvious already. For example, Queen Elizabeth II doesn't show up in Index, we have Queen Elizard instead. I guess neither Sir Michael Jagger nor Sir Alexander Ferguson will show up in Index either. Quote:
I'm only reporting what ken has told me. So, all the credit should go to him.

Saw this pic when I was browsing through rainbow spectrum:
Strating from left: Beyloupe, lessar, Floris, and Rancis. Members of "The New Light". You can see they're equipped with "demon parts" . (pointed ear, spade-shaped tail, devil wings, and pointed nails [=_=;]) Also, each of them are holding The artifact "Steel Gloves". The suit case held by Beyloupe is the artifact "SkidhBladhnir". *N:L = New Light

Wow... Lessar looks loli-ish. For some reason, I thought she'd look a bit older. Thanks ken.
@MrTerrorist: Yeah, I know that much, but for all we know, popular culture in the Index world may differ from our own. Therefore, as sad as it may be, in that world Lady D, The Rolling Stones and Manchester United quite possibly never existed.

The New Light looks like some Lacrosse team rather than a bunch of witches.
@used Can:That maybe so but the history of the Index world would still be the same in a way. (The Gulf War still did happen, creation today tech devices like mp3 players, broadband etc, references of pop culture in the novels, Barrack Obama is still President of the USA.)
