Is this girl perhaps part of Aleister's collection in the building, or just someone who got wind of things (maybe from Laura) and decided to join in, would be nice to know. Mathers is Aleister's associate IRL.

Yep, and the name is Moina Mathers, not Mina.

Interesting though, a certain Mathers has showed up in Date A Live first.



EDIT: She really was named Mina/Minna, but changed her name to Moina after her marriage to Samuel Liddell MacGregor Mathers.

I'm more interested about the introduction of the bigshots in the Hermetic Order.

Prediction Time
-Mina will tell Touman about Imagine Breaker's use to Aleister and it's orign. I'm not sure if we'll learn anything about IB/Dragons but who knows.
-Touma will interact with Aleister and possibly Aiwass. Tsuchimikado will definetely stand off with Aleister and Touman will come to his aid, forcing Aleister to stand down.
-Fran, Index, and Othinus will stay minorly involved outside of Academy City.
-Touma and the girls will stay outside of the city. I have some doubts about Tsuchimikado's survival. His sister's life is on the line, now it's time for a self sacrifice. I predict he'll perish using magic to cancel the Karma Magic.
-Mina will join the faction (harem).
-As Touma, Index with Sphinx, Othinus, Fran, and perhaps Mina escape, Misaka will follow. (Maybe Misaki too).
-Academy City will be a minor setting in the Aleister story arc.
-Aleister will begin to put his plans into actions, still needing Touma.
-Laura will get involved in the end. Even though Tsuchimikado didn't let Fran contact her, she was watching Aleister during the Kamisato Arc and will definetely take action.

What are the chances that Mina is the cat towards the end of NT 10?

Yup, things are getting really interesting from now on! I wonder if the catgirl is the boss of this volume or someone that will help the crew inside the building.

Based on that summary alone, I only have one thing to say.

Prepare for the ultimate info dump, mainly since vague hints and sparse pieces of backstory have been the only information given us so far about Aleister.

I'm glad that things are picking up, I just hope this doesn't turn into a repeat of when Touma, Accelerator, and Shiage were all holed up inside his dorm listening to Birdway for a third or half a volume.

That said, I'm pretty excited about this.

Except instead of God's Right Seat, it'll be the Heremetic Order.

Just like with Ollerus? I clearly remember Touma bein "lol nope, festival is more important!".



However, I would like to be wrong and that Kamachi really focusses on IB instead of throwing readers a bone until the next 12 volumes.

I was thinking the same thing and it will be funny for a random characters that make a random cameo in NT2 to be someone so important specially because it was really random and in a funny moment.

Also a "human" without a trace of doubt that isn't true at all we can see that because WR work on stuff make by Crowley and that only work on people which conflicting ideals which mean he had traces of doubt.

Also I finally think I know Crowley final goal it is for him to have his perfect plan completely self-destruction and failled which no hope of it successing or being about to continue.
What do I mean by that just look up Brother of the Left Hand Path and what the Real Life Crowley said about it and it also explain why Crowley had a huge breakdown at the end of NT14. Specially if the Magic Gods were part of Brother of the Left Hand Path beside Othunis who was just before that. If you take into High Priest past it make more sense why he did not get to Enlightenment after what the people did to him.

Also how long do you think the Crowley Arc will be?

I am saying about 10 books like the GRS Arc was going to be before the last book was make into 2 and Gremiln Arc 10 books.

If Kamachi can stretch the arc on for 10 books, I think 7 books would be better.

I think (sadly of course), by saying "the mystery of Imagine Breaker" isn't referring to it's origin, but instead it's importance to Crowley's plan. After all, Fran and Tsuchimikado want to hide behind Touma due to Imagine Breaker. This probably will make Touma question why Aleister needs hia right hand. Sadly, Kamachi will have to keep this mystery lingering until the end of the series, which from the looks of it, won't be anytime soon.

I'm just gonna post Marcus H's translation here because it flows better in English:

The "Plan".

Enshrined within the headquarters of Science is the ambition of an immortal magician that spans beyond a hundred years. It undergoes an infinite amount of forms, and bares its fangs without mercy.

Tsuchimikado Motoharu and Fran have become target of the leader of Academy City. After they stumble into Kamijou Touma's room, they attempt to escape from Academy City as a last resort. However, the man in the green surgical gown certainly will not let them get away. His poisonous fang, a magic called "Karma", strikes Tsuchimikado's sister Maika, consuming her in the process. To overcome this situation, Touma and Tsuchimikado decided to attack the stronghold of the General Superintendent of Academy City, the Windowless Building.

What awaited them inside was vast, nihilistic space as if symbolizing the ruler's mind.

Kamijou charged forth heading to the top, but suddenly a strange, cat-eared beauty in mourning garb named Mina Mathers invites him to experience the same Golden Miracle that the immortal magician walked. Along with the mystery of the Imagine Breaker...

Finally the curtain is drawn.

Thus begins the tale of Aleister Crowley, a "human" with a clear consciousness.
<sigh>...<deep breath>
Images
Sorry; dynamic content not loaded. Reload?
  • So Maika is the one that's attacked... Makes sense; its the foolproof way of striking at Tsuchimikado.
  • Mina Mathers... what other names from the Golden Dawn/Rosicrucians will we come up.
  • Aleister's tale...Will Heaven Canceller; Noukan and High Priest become relevent to this tale?
Too many things to wait for. I'll echo everyone else's thoughts that Kamachi might just bait again but I still have faith in the robot!

We already know about Imagine Breaker. It's is the hopes of magicians and magic gods, what will most likely be revealed is IT.

Well, aside from Crowley and Mathers, another name that was mentioned in the series was Anna Sprengel [OT Volume 22 Epilogue].

We don't know why it chose Touma and what purpose it chose him for.

Some other stuff we don't know or that needs to happen includes:
-A lot about Laura
-Most of Index's past
-Most about Accelerator's past
-Aiwass' purpose
-Kumokawa Seria's past with Kamijou
-Touma needs to remember Misaki
-Kihara Yuuitsu's fate
-What happened to Thor
-The identity of Aihana Etsu
-Aogami Pierce's real name (could go hand in hand with what's above it)
-The actual possibility of Level 6, since we've seen Magic Gods already
-What is the full purpose of the Imaginary Number School Distract
-Fran needs to admit her love to Kamisato and return to the faction, since Fran may have the most developed romance in the series
I'm sure there's more but I can think of anything right now. It should be noted that most of this won't fit in with the Aleister Arc at all. Some stuff like #6, Kumokawa Seria, and Touma and Misaki could fit into it's own volume.

About, IT and Dragons, I doubt that will be revealed soon. I stil think Mina will tell Touma about IB's importance to Aleister.

It should also be noted we are close to Christmas. I doubt this arc will last until then, but Christianity is a major series plotpoint so I doubt Kamachi will let Christmas go by.

There is also Gunha and Gemstones, Takisubo power, what is going on in England, the Amakusa( man I missed those guys), oh yeah there is also vampires and aliens which was mentioned but havent appeared. LOTS OF PROBLEMS

When Kamachi finished his youkai-themed light novel did he solved all the misteries in It or not guys?

Just also realized, if this was the final arc, Kamachi would've said. Creators usually announce the end of their series, like this is the last season or final arc.
