Re: Mx0 94 Discussion Thread / 95 Predictions Thread

Hi guys, i have been coming to this forum on and off for a month now, and finally decided to join today :)

I just wanted to say that what i truly like about this manga, are the limits that are placed on Kazumi. Forcing the main character to find alternative ways to solve issues rather then through brute force.

Anyways back to this chapter. Kazumi has two thing going for him MO (which he levels up so often) and the black magic (that he will also have to upgrade). But does anyone else have the feeling that there is far more to the black magic , especially the fact that the rest of the teaching staff has it as well??
Nice to see some new people joining this community

first a comment, only as a detail: it's kuzumi instead of kazumi ;)

I agree with you, the fact the teachers have black magic as well, means there's far more than we've seen for now. Black magic is certainly a mistery in mx0 but it prolly got to do with the levels and the true meaning behind the black magic but we'll prolly have to wait for that (for a long time?)

Re: Mx0 94 Discussion Thread / 95 Predictions Thread

Maybe it's not that they have black plates because they are teachers, but they are teachers because they were able to get black plates. I've always wondered how much of a gap there is between students with a silver plate and the people who possess gold ones. Now we can add this other layer that each of the teachers has enough ability to clear the tests required to achieve the black plate. It has certainly changed my opinion of some of the staff (especially Ooki and Kadoniwa)

Yah, that is a good question. The principle did say that Kuzumi (did i spell this one right?) would be a good asset to the school when she sent him off to get the black plate. And if all the other teachers have black plates, then this does raise some questions!

And also a possiblity for the end of the manga - Kuzumi becoming a techer o.o

Re: Mx0 94 Discussion Thread / 95 Predictions Thread

He should be acquiring a lot of points if that is the case. The chapter started with the girls mentioning they had just completed a lot of paperwork for the MEC, so Kuzumi will be able to use M0 again
I think not... Remember it wasn't Kuzumi submitting the paper work, it was Aika. (Kuzumi was busy with the BP Exam and all.)

Besides, Kuzumi should be specifically submitting reports, not paper work. Paper Work can be anything, from activities reports (which is what Kuzumi should be sumbitting), to a reflection papers.

Re: Mx0 94 Discussion Thread / 95 Predictions Thread

I don't think Aika can get points from MEC stuff, she's sort of just acting under kuzumi's authority in order to further her magical ability, all her points go to kuzumi in my mind

Well, all teachers has black plate does suggest that to be teacher the possession of black plate is requirement but that doesn't mean you have to be a teacher. since you can use black plate outside the magic spots, maybe you can do something with it(prob helping people). So far we do not know if there is other schools (maybe college?) for magic, so we can't speculate much...

Though, can you store your own magic from a normal plate in a black plate? I don't remember anyone mentioned in manga(well, it has nothing to do with kuzumi, since he erases the memory of BP by simply using M0 but..

In relevance to the point kuzumi has on his plate right now, I say there is only 1 MEC for his catching the culprit using voice warp
But, Aika did say she did some paperwork for MEC but i wonder if would count as kuzumi's points;
err...
depends on what kind of work she did(and whether she submitted her report) kuzumi could have some more credit i guess;
anyway he can use M0 soon

Re: Kuzumi advancing on two levels

well, the thing is, unless he gets the magic from dhiragi or the principal, he have to let the magic hit him...and stronger the magic the more it hurt. So it practically means that kuzumi has to hurt himself in order to damage others

Not sure how useful that would be to teachers. They must have nearly unlimited points on their teacher plates, so would they ever need to transfer their magic to the black plate?

The perk of having a black plate on top of your normal plate is being able to return the attack of another person, at the same level, maybe higher. Kinda reminds me of Copy ninja Kakashi from naruto, he copies zabuza's attack, and psychs him out. Or they could borrow a magic from another teacher, sort of as an emergency technique...like borrowing that flying ability for dire situations if they can't do it themselves :D

We still don't know for certain if black plate magic can be used outside of schools.

Re: Mx0 94 Discussion Thread / 95 Predictions Thread

I imagine if there is a spell that is beyond the capability of even a gold plate to use (that is, it costs more magic points than even that plate can hold), then the black magic would grant the teachers the ability to use it.

Re: Mx0 94 Discussion Thread / 95 Predictions Thread

What if Kuzumi could make his plate memorize a spell (incantation magic that the students use to put spells onto there magic cards), just only for one use though. Now i don't know how powerful the spell would be, but if Kuzumi was able to memorize some short incantation spells, theoretically he would have an unlimited supply of magic.

I know Aika can't get any points, but I still don't think you can give any credit to Kuzumi for Aika's work either since he did not submit any reports at all.:sweat

The M0 plate cannot memorize magic.

As we all know, all the students have to read an incantation in order to insert a spell on their spell card. Kuzumi might also be able to do this, the only difference is that the incantation could only be used once. If this is true, then all Kuzumi will need to do is memorize several short incantations so he can keep refilling his card after each use without having to absorb magic from others.

The M0 plate cannot memorize magic.
No, M0 cannot memorize magic, but what about the black magic ability? Its logical to assume that the incantation is a kind of code that shapes magic into a desired form, and if the black plate captures a piece of magic, then it makes sense that it copies and holds the incantation as well. And thus it would be possible to just add the incantation directly into the black card, instead of absorbing it. The only problem i have with this theory is that if the black plate also captures part of the magic being used (which is what i am assuming) then the incantation would be useless since their is no magic in the card to shape.

lol, its just a fun idea to play around with :) , i honestly don't think this will happen though.

I think it was pretty clear that it can't be done through incantations. If it were possible to put magic in the BP through that means, it should have been mentioned by Hiiragi-Sensei when he briefed Kuzumi about the usage of BM0. So, I still doubt you can use make Kuzumi's BM0 memorize through incantations.

Re: Kuzumi advancing on two levels

He might not get hurt if he's fast enough and if the magic directly hits the BM0 which is supposed to be hidden under his clothes :>

What's worse is that he can't use Black Magic to absorb part of the spell and then use M0 to negate the rest.

Re: Mx0 94 Discussion Thread / 95 Predictions Thread

Hey, was anything said about how the teachers have their black magic? Otherwise said: do the teachers have black magic layer on their gold plate or do they have a different black plate?

Indeed he'll have to be carefull because he can't show his BM0 in public by sticking out his hand holding BM0 -> which makes it easier to absorb (based on last chapter)
but I have asked myself if it isn't dangerous to just put it in a pocket and absorb it by letting the magic come to that plate which is close to your body? Well I certainly wanna see how BM0 is supposed to work hidden under your clothes because imo it sounds dangerous
