One Piece has all but solidify it's position as King of Shounen. Though I haven't follow any of the big three in years, word on the street is how the other two have been slowly degrading while One Piece has been on the rise ever since a certain someone bites the dust. But this isn't so clear cut for the Light Novel world. There are some serious contenders that are pretty even in this fight and it's only getting tougher now that Haruhi is back from the grave, and Boku wa Tomodachi is getting an Anime... In terms of sales- with the exception of Haruhi- everybody else is neck-to-neck, the one advantage that Index has is numbers- but this ranking limits that overwhelming advantage by counting only from a year and a half ago. Don't get me wrong, I'm glad that Index has gotten it's success and recognition, but I want to get all the facts straight before I run down the street naked and covered in goat's blood screaming "Hail to the King baby!"

Are those two such good buddies now ?

And I don't think fans have a hard time guessing, because we all know what the majority opinion is. In fact, I don't thing Kamachi has made it really hard for us at all. But this kind of talk before the new volume comes out... That would mean the situation for both Touma and Accelerator on the relationship front won't change at all...

That's... harsh lol. I don't think Touma is that bad, at least he still shows some kind of perverted thought here and there in the novel, though he never act on it(like on vol 5 toward the loli index). He's just not interested in pursuing romantic relation right now. That's just my opinion though lol.

It's not so bad with Touma because it's not so obvious with Touma The world of Index is serious business! There's no time to be enjoying romantic-comedy when all hell is going down every other week Enjoy a beach episode? No can do, the whole world is in chaos. Enjoy a fake date episode? No can do, crazy stalker trying to kill him. Enjoy a shopping trip? No can do, angry gothic woman on a warpath. Enjoy a sport festival? No can do, people trying to take over the city. Enjoy a vacation trip? No can do, fanatic Italians on the high seas. Enjoy a real date episode? Maybe, but back to work at night. Enjoy a public bath episode? No can do, violent Englishman beating him within an inch of his life. Enjoy a plane trip to England? No can do, french terrorists just happen to be onboard. Enjoy a good night's sleep? No can do, Index getting kidnapped (thrice), Mikoto's in trouble, Mikoto's Imouto's in trouble, Mikoto's Kouhai in trouble, Mikoto's Mother in trouble... Every possible romcom event is punctuated with violence and intrigue; if there's a swimming pool arc, or an amusement park, or a movie marathon, or even a sleep over party, he'll be juggling that and stopping the ten plagues or something. ...So yeah, maybe I can understand if relationship isn't a top priority at the moment for Kamijou Touma.

That explains a lot, like how he feels like running whenever Mikoto is near him, or whenever something good seems to be happening.
He's been conditioned like Pavlov's dogs... When there's good fortune for him, there a whole lot more misfortune right around the corner. He doesn't even dare to think about romance, as an axe might fall down on him from the sky the moment he does. Last edited by leukrota; 2011-08-06 at 12:11.

Enjoy going to Russia? No can do, he's not there for leisure, he's there to stop that bastard and save Index. Enjoy being in Russia? No can do, it's now a war zone, Fiamma screws more things up, and has more up his sleeve. Enjoy a break after getting saved by Bardway and company? No can do, he goes back to Academy City and saves Fremea and Shiage from a last-ditch desperation move from Kuroyoru. Enjoy meeting up with Accelerator and Shiage? No can do, that's when they're gonna get BUSY!
