Accel World - Light Novel Discussion

[Ken Sanders]

Masaka!? "She" was able to trace Haruyuki's home ans cooked him breakfast!?

And how is she able to get past the security of his door?

And one thing oprheus2, does Kuroyukihime's sister looks like her?

Since Haru was able to tell something was off about her?

[orpheus2]

This is speculation on my part.

Remember, the Acceleration Research Society pretty much knows Haru and co.'s real life identities thanks to Dusk Taker. I wouldn't put it past her to do a personal visit considering her manipulations of Kuroyukihime.

Do note KYH is a competent hacker. KYH did say her sister was better than her in many areas.

This is assuming only. She could have hack Haru's linker the same way Noumi did in Volume 3 to make herself look like KYH.

I am speculating that what sets off Haru's suspicions. Or it could her mannerisms.

Speaking of which, I got this from the wiki regarding Volume 16. Could anyone confrim it especially the volume title.



Does this mean we get to see her now?

If so, here my speculation regarding the ending:

Spoiler for Volume 16 ending:

After the battle, everyone went home. Haru slept afterwards. Haru wakes up to the smell of breakfast. He finds "Kuroyukihime" cooking for him. She noticed him and moves closer to him. Haru noticed something is wrong. When she got closer, it confirmed his suspicion. Haru asks, "Who the hell are you?!" "Kuroyukihime" smiles sinisterly. *Volume End*

Volume name given in http://dengekibunko.dengeki.com/i/new.html
My original source does not give a source link to the intro.
Translation updated a bit on that page.
Btw don't trust the translation so much as my English is not good and my Japanese is worser than bad...

[ampplaca]

is there anywhere to read this. I know BT has 1-5, and 8 but where can I find 6,7,9-on

Currently they're only available in Japanese/Chinese/Korean and maybe potentially Thai/Vietnamese (not sure about these two). You can only read them if you are familiar with one of the above language or else you'll have to wait for translation or learn Japanese yourself...

[Tusjecht]

Volumes 9 and 11 are being translated by me, and Heikichi is continuing the translation of V6 with my assistance. You'll have to be patient, unfortunately.

At the time of this post, I have also uploaded chapter 6 of Volume 6 onto my translation blog. See my signature, TL blog. I'm still working to edit it though, so it's not much different from the V6.6 on Baka Tsuki.

In response to the above post: I own Chinese copies for V1, V9, V11 and V12, and Japanese copies of V6, V9, and V11. There's a Thai V6 out there somewhere, and the Google Translation comes out absolutely unreadable.

As for the title of V16, it's "The Slumber of Princess Snow White."

In other words, Shirayukihime and White Cosmos!

ok I was just wondering if it was done anywhere. I can wait as I understand how long it takes to translate something and then write it out as well. so take all the time you need.

Let's hope this is it. We have enough foreshadowing already.

BTW, what do you think of my speculated ending for Volume 16?

[Tusjecht]

Speculated, meaning fanfiction?

It's definitely possible, but another consideration to make would be how broken up the ARS is.

Spoiler for References to V15:

We know that Argon Array and Black Vise are still around, but to say nothing of Disaster Mk II, their base's location is now known to Nega Nebulas and Scarlet Rain. Say nothing of Metatron repurposing it, it is as good as public information in the Accelerated World at least.

Unless the entire legion Oscillatory Universe is just a front for the ARS, then White Cosmos may have to personally answer to her legionnaires if her control over them isn't a hundred percent enough.

But then again...she never has had to use Judgement Blow "

Something like that...

Speaking of ARS members:

Spoiler for ARS:

I re-read Volume 10. It looks like Sulfur Pot might still be out there. BL wasn't able to EK him.

As for Rust Jigsaw, I dunno. Is he really out of the game or is he bidding his time. He was brutally killed by CD!Silver Crow but it didn't say his burst points went to zero upon defeat.

Spoiler for response:

Yes. Black Lotus certainly tried to interrogate him, but since he was Accelerating from Tokyo and not Okinawa, he must have set up an Auto-Disconnect function as a safety.

Rust Jigsaw is also still around.

In other news, I've uploaded Chapter 6 of V6 onto my blog. Link is here,, I'll take down the link from the post in a few hours to not violate AS rules. Just check my blog for updates.

Some retranslations include the title, from 'Sacred Fire Shrine Maiden' to "Shrine Maiden Of Purifying Flames." It lacks the succinct-ness of the first title, but it's more accurate.

Also, at the end of the chapter, it's not 'sacred fire' either " I got carried away with allusions to the title. Gouka is apparently a Buddhist term as far as Japanese Buddhism is concerned, and it translates to 'world-destroying conflagration.' So I shortened it to 'Conflagration Shrine Maiden,' since it's the next best thing, and Maiden isn't yet Level 9 "

Oh, and the 'song' is completely different than what I thought, so I'm leaving it in kanji and romaji. "

[orpheus2]

Thank you. Good luck to you as well.

For now, I should start saving up money for SAO Volume 1 Yen Press release. I wish they also announce AW Volume 1 as well.

[tuckersister]

I think Vol 16 that something unexpected will happen that ARS didn't see coming. Metatron and SC are growing close together ever since Vol 15. I wonder how will SC "serve" Metatron when this situation is all over.

[Tusjecht]

The ARS already didn't 'foresee' the birth of Mk II Disaster, so it's more accurate to say that V15 was the volume in which they were caught off guard. Bear in mind also that Metatron turning against them was also another surprise.

[c933103]

V16 is going to be the end of ISS kit arc.

[Tusjecht]

Saying it like it's a truth... >_>

Undoubtedly Maiden's IS is burning it to a crisp, and then Red Rider can come out, destroy the ISS kits, and maybe stick around long enough to finish off the duel avatar inside the core.

But that's if Mk II disaster doesn't take up all the screen time.

IIRC, the surprise was that Disaster MkII was made at that point in time, and not that MkII was made at all.
