Back on the right track, I knew this was going to be enjoyable, and indeed it was to read!

We finally get to see Agnase and her gang on a more positive light, and I personally found Lucia really enjoyable character to hear about (her lecturing sister angele was quite funny and charming).
Itsuwa mades her debut, but a real shy one... they totally skipped those lines of the guys cheering on the back in the anime though.

Biagio was an oppressive fellow and surely alot more menacing than in the anime, there his cross attack looks dumb but while reading this, it really had that feeling to it of power, of destruction (also LN as always, alot more gory and bloody than anime adaptation).

This marks the half of Toaru Old Testament reached, strictly speaking there are only 11 more volumes to go (plan to read SS noneless).
Makes sense to finally be teased about God Right Seat, at the halfway point, considering they are essential for the rest of the volumes to come.
Greatness awaits.

(just started to read vol12, back to romcom mood, but really enjoyable so far since it focus on characters I enjoy alot, and so far, much better pacing that 9-10)

So we're halfway through.
I'm sad to say this and I know it maybe only me, but I gave up trying to understand what was going on untill maybe the last chapter, I couldn't enjoy it :| and I feel very furstrated because I really love this novel and want to enjoy every little part of it. v.v

After finishing this vol I read on wiki that this remarks the start of major events, so I'm excited for what is coming.

This arc reminds me a lot of vol 7 with the big battles and shit going on in the background (and not just Touman), I LOVE IT.

The epilogue though, the "villain of the week"-esque volumes are finally over eh?

The vapor would be hundreds of degrees Celsius as it swarmed out for dozens of kilometers, and that would boil people alive. Plus, the water vapor would change the atmospmere's temperature, creating an extreme difference in air pressure. Broadly speaking, it would spell the birth of a supergiant hurricane.


I can't help but roll my eyes. It reminds me of Trump asking to drop bombs on the hurricane to disperse it. Suspension of disbelief at its limits.

11 volumes already. This one had a nice flow as the story progressed. Interesting to see more of the worldbuilding outside Academic City. It was certainly an explosive volume, with more groups joining Touma's side. Biagio was a badass villain I might say. It was refreshing to see Agnese joining Orsola and saving her with the angel weapon.

I find amazing how everything grows little by little, just like a snowball. The epilogue left me pumped for the next parts xD
