So I'm actually curious if the author is going to include Morisaki back into the story at all at any point. It feels like if he was going to be "redeemed" the way Hattori was .. it would've happened by now? The fact that he hasn't graduated yet though and has been excluded from the Student Council should realistically mean he should have some screen time.. how odd?

2: The "other students" refers to anyone outside of Tatsuya's hand picked harem/group. If you wanted to talk about the people IN the group, I expect he'd lose to Erika and Lina easily, Honoka possibly (because certain light-themed magics are really evil against someone like Leo) and Shizuku maybe. 3: Yet again, he's NOT allowed to engage in melee combat at ALL in Monolith Code. And Leo's primary attack method is through melee combat. You ignore this each time you complain that he looked weak in Monolith Code. Complaining that he looked weak because he can't engage in melee combat is like complaining that a sharpshooter who can't use his gun stinks at combat. The fact that he's still able to hold on despite the massive handicap he's got to deal with actually reinforces the fact that his combat prowess is extraordinary. 4: Yes, it does. The whole point of the Worf Effect is that you have someone who is considered strong defeated by an unknown to illustrate how strong the enemy is. As long as it's not overused, it's fine as a storytelling device. |

Overall what I'm saying is thus, in this world, at this time, all magicians are basically considered "weapons" -- for any "talented magician" (Bloom?) To beat Leo is simple -- you cast faster than him, have stronger phenomenon re-writing ability than him, more interference strength than him .. without moving as fast as Tatsuya & Erika (fast enough to lose magical targeting) he'll immediately get knocked out. Leo will obviously beat you if you start in very close range or if you underestimate him .. but I just don't see the evidence to support what some other people are saying about how Leo could beat other magicians, let alone, Morisaki.

I'd like to make a small addition to this argument about Leo vs. Morisaki. The assumption here is that the engagement takes place at around 10 meters, give or take, correct? Doesn't Leo's Dragonfly Wing blade extend more than twice that?

Leo's own innate data fortification for his own body would prevent Morisaki from halting self-acceleration or fortification magic, but that wouldn't extend to his weapon.. let alone if Morisaki could do what Hattori intended to do to Tatsuya and immediately KO him..

Actually, no I'm not misunderstanding the function of the weapon -- it extends carbon nanotubes which due to fortifying magic turns it into a blade. Without the fortifying magic it would just be a super thin weak string. As for your understanding about it storing a magic sequence .. no, that's not how it works. The only item that has even been mentioned of possibly being able to "store magic sequences" is the Magatama relic during the Yokohama arc.
The sword that Leo uses is a weaponized integrated CAD which is kind of actually very similar to the mini-communicator. It may possibly only store one specific activation sequence but otherwise still requires the magician to invoke the magic. In fact, without the loop cast system embedded into it (since Tatsuya never experimented on it) it would probably require significant concentration and skill to upkeep. Remember at least in Erika's case she only applies magic at the moment of impact.

Oh right, because I didn't. I said built into the sword like with Engraving magic. We know this is a valid method for magical weapon construction because Erika's baton CAD uses Engraving magic to power it, and it has absolutely nothing to do with the Magatama. Does Leo's sword use that method? I don't know, but it's certainly a valid theory. |
