So did Accel gain any new powers when he awakened and fought the Archangel?

From what I recall, Accel didn't awaken against Gabriel. He and Kazakiri defeated Gabriel after Acqua drained it.

Accel awakened to block the golden mass of Telesma launched by the Star of Bethlehem.

We don't know; because what he did in that state wasn't clearly described to us. We only know that he only gained the ability to levitate "just because he wants to" like other celestial beings could.

(I can't remember if Kakine could levitate without flapping his wings as well).

Kakine didn't have enough time to do that

He had a high speed aerial combat with Accelerator remember?

Alright, folks, I HAD enough with the fiasco over the volume edits because NOBODY bothered to check through in the end. Just treat it as my ranting spot now because nobody will do it:

This is a little story about four people named Everybody, Somebody, Anybody, and Nobody.

There was an important job to be done and Everybody was sure that Somebody would do it.

Anybody could have done it, but Nobody did it.

Somebody got angry about that because it was Everybody's job.

Everybody thought that Anybody could do it, but Nobody realized that Everybody wouldn't do it.

It ended up that Everybody blamed Somebody when Nobody did what Anybody could have done

We'll see in the anime, since it wasn't really clear in the LN. But yeah, I think he can do so.

I have been reading through them and the only errors I seem to encounter are sayings or wordings that are difficult to translate into English. I am only on Book 12 right now and have been occasionally fixing mistyped sentence structures and the like, but without knowing the original meaning of the sentences (I can't read Japanese) I don't know how to edit the sentences to make them understandable to an English audience.

So far this problem has not been a major issue. If you want me to point out some areas where I had trouble understanding what was happening or being said, I can show them to you later this week. (I have exams to study for) Also I have only re-read through book 11 and am on book 12 if that helps.

(nice wording with the everybody and nobody thing)

I think Kakine had to move his wings to fly, I don't think he could levitate, just break the laws of flying.

Sorry to turn your rage into my amusement, but that's a damn good riddle !

..yeah. What a jaw gapping Excert!

...so what is the title?
The story of four body's?

[Miraluka]

Hey Teh_Ping, remember I even pointed out some missing lines in vol. 16, I've been reading through them again 2 times, after RLI screwed with me, so far only Love Letter SS and and Vending Machine SS didn't had a re-read done by myself. The others... well, they're not confusing to me .

[Twi]

I hope they show it next volume...Then again, if things get bad enough to where he has to go angel, there will be a whole new set of problems to deal with

PS: Lightning and Wind has been Updated.

Someone was asking about Accelerator gaining power. We said levitation. Someone wondered if Kakine could do it. I said he didn't have time in awakened form.

Okashira never specifically referred to awaken wings, he just said wings.

So I guess we were both thinking of different things.

HOWEVER, since Kakine can already fly without awakening, there's no reason why that would change after awakening so my point stands.

[I_am_Kami]

Except levitating=/=flying with wings which is something Kakine hasn't shown to do.

Why? Are you saying Kakine was flying using normal, natural means? That he was in fact, flapping like a bird?

[Miraluka]

There is more than flapping wings in order to fly, there has to be an aerodinamic anatomy, something a human body like Kakine's doesn't has.

So Dark Matter allows Kakine to defy gravity?

It wouldn't surprise me. Anything Dark Matter touches becomes an extension of Kakine's personal reality, so even just by being manifested on Earth (which would place said matter within the influence of Earth's gravitational field) should mean he can make localized alterations to it.
