Hello! Nice to see your story here. I'm a bit curious, but is this an altered version of the NT where Touma didn't save Mikoto and she become broken? Keep up the good work anyway!

I read through the TV Tropes Character Profile of Touma Kamijou. In there Ambiguous Disorder was placed there, in reference to Touma's rather fluid moral code, although it also highlighted his trauma from battling Othinus.

The moral code part was very interesting to me, because of how Touma as a character operates, being a literal wild card, like today he is on your side, the next thing he fights for the enemy. And I know you made a chapter about Touma's morality issues in your chapter The Turning, I just wanna know your thoughts again about him. And his morality issues.

You've really put a lot of focus on Itsuwa this chapter. It felt like one of the character arcs from ACUL0. If you're getting that detailed, I think "The Rumour" should be a standalone story. It's definitely looking like there is a deep plot here and having each chapter divided by many other one-shots really messed with the flow. You even had to do the "last time on..." intro. With a whole chapter devoted to Itsuwa, and I assume that a big chunk of the next one will be also, I fear how big this story can get if more characters get entire chapters. You'd be really stretching it with the Roman numerals. It would also be a lot better to have the chapter names be more descriptive in addition to this being a standalone story.

And so the Kamijou Faction Civil War continues...

I liked the Itsuwa focus! It really showed her simple wants and needs, but also how determined she is to protect those wants and needs. It really plays true to her innocent nature. But then Lessar popped in; I wouldn't be surprised if all of this was somehow her fault, you know? Causing chaos so that the other girls would take each other out so she can make a move on Touma sounds like something she'd do, but it appears that she is just as much in the dark as everyone else.

I wonder who the next challenger is...

Good chapter; waiting patiently for more!

Bueno itsuwa es la chica perfecta de Touma merece su cap su pensamiento es correcto

Pero siento que Touma esta arreglando algo fuera ciudad Academia
Para hacerlo que el regrese ahora preguntándose que clase de loco chiflado se
Fue esta vez,

Ahhhhh, ... compared to that which obliterated quite a few brain cells (Chapter 78), this one was super-refreshing, even if we're probably no closer to finding out where Touma is, in the heart of all this madness, let alone the as-yet unexplained mystery behind The Rumour.

Worth sticking around for the answer ... do carry on, author-san.

Interesting take on Itsuwa. Love at first sight is something I've never even thought about when it comes to Touma. But it does make sense from her perspective.

And then there's the erotic imp girl. I can't wait to see her reasoning for coming down. Their HAS to be something more to it then getting him to join New Light.

Nah, I agreed with Aogami last chapter mostly because in this case, the other two were just too "specialized" for my taste in that matter. All hail quirks and contradictions!

And as for this chapter... This was literally gigantic setup for one really stale, overused joke of somebody (Lessar in this case) pressing F to pay respects. But, because the reason for that was Itsuwa going against Theworstgirl, I'm happy anyway. Time to open my cheap champagne. Cheers!

Next is going to be Suzushina Yuriko chapter, I guess...?

Keep it up I love this story please.

Once More, Cry Havoc and let slip the ... er, Ladies Of War (or something like it)!

Admittedly, anyone not wholly familiar with the personalities and abilities of Kanzaki and Birdway might express shock and/or disbelief that a (practically) grown-up young woman would ram her knee into the chest of (from all appearances) a little girl, rendering her practically unconscious. Another curious point, perhaps ... whether anyone has taken time-out to consider it seriously; would the literally lowest of all Level 0 Espers, seemingly stuck at the bottom of the social ladder (at least in AC), with miserable misfortune (not to mention, nigh-perpetual poverty) being a closer companion to him than Index or Othinus could be, really seek to get into a relationship with a female, so long as that state continues?

That was more of a rhetorical question, than anything else, so you may opt to answer it at your discretion.

And having barely gotten past her encounter with Kanzaki, Itsuwa finds herself about to face off against Lessar ... it just keeps on going, doesn't it? And still no sign whatsoever of the Tou-MAN. And there are still many other questions yet to be answered.

But when all is said and done, it's stuff like this that keeps me (and no doubt others) staying tuned for *koff-koff* further developments.

Until next time ... APPROVED!

I have enjoyed reading your stories and look forward to you hopefully creating many more!

Loved this one!

#43 Great story. I wish you would continue it.

I really miss your PFK stories, with Future Touma walking the Earth, like something out of a Western. I would've loved if you could continue the series, make it episodic.

Love this story!
