And LOL at calling Brunhild, Hel, does the author has in mind to include Hel's brothers, Fenrir and Jormungand in the novels for Odinus' saga?? |

Perhaps she's similar to Acqua? The position and magic of a valkyrie is something you have to acquire.
Anyway, a question. I had thought that Bardway and Kanzaki were friends, but the summary clears up that misunderstanding. Did they become friends later on or something? I wonder if Kanzaki is going to do a 'befriending' on Brunhild, though?

Kaori and Bardway ... friends? No way , the latter is too spoiled even for a ice lady like Kaori. And that, says much.
About these mini-novels I noticed there is a frequent use of the number 3, maybe it has a special meaning in the Norse magic. Last edited by Miraluka; 2010-11-03 at 10:49. |

Doesn't she. Isnt that a pic in one of the Index SS? Also, Wondering if anyone thought the same. Is there a probability touma is part of the L.6 project? Like, accelerator becoming strong so touma could beat him and become strong? Then so on and so forth till he "awakens" his power. Cuz the way i view it touma is supposed to be "the one higher than god" |

Has the series ever talked about the Muslims? Now I know talking about them is a touchy subject, but really, they number about 1.5 billion believers (a lot of whom are actually devout) and are a significant part of the world order. I'll be surprised if the author never includes them at any point in the series while including an obscure South American religion that probably has a recurring appearance (meaning showing up at least twice).

Why should it be? I have no qualms against any religion speaking its feelings. Only when they become overzealous holier-than-thou jackwads that I say "no more."
Are you Muslim? I understand how it would feel when Christianity is mentioned so much more often than Islam in anime that you enjoy. Maybe he will? I hope he includes everyone in fact; the great history of Islam is (really) much larger than Christianity itself. I think it would make for a great topic in TAMNI.

I'm not Muslim or a part of any religion, though I sort of agree with the ideas of Deism. I only say talking about them is touchy because of all the extremists and the violent actions they cause and that having Muslim magicians attack Academy City may reflect real life a little too closely for some people's taste.

You could say the same about the RCC's antagonism towards AC for their science and heresy. Crusades, anyone? It's just that people relate to Islam in a more touchy manner because it's a recent event.

Being a Muslim myself (why hello there people), you would think I'd react negatively against even the mere mentioning of the word "Muslims bad!" by that one character because for some reason, the majority of Muslims I know don't like any negative portrayal of their people and religion in fiction.
I however feel neutral about that, one of the reasons is that I'm reading a fictional story and as of such, I do know what to believe and what I shouldn't. Besides, it's a work of fiction after all and I'm enjoying it for the laughs. That shouldn't hurt as long as I don't take the fiction seriously and begin, say, considering this series as a religious book - which, of course, would make me get the label "INFIDEL" straight away by others. While a good portion of other people like me are being neutral about this, I do worry what will happen if the sensitive ones do hear about Biagio Busoni (whatever his name is) though. Oh, the horror of protests I can imagine going on everywhere! ... Religious uproar regarding content of fictional works... where have I heard that before? NGE?
