Re: Mx0 94 Discussion Thread / 95 Predictions Thread

Theres one thing you guys, and possibly Kuzumi will overlook. Its that he can use M0 to cancel the dangerous part of a spell, and then use black plate to absorb the rest. This will reduce the possible damage he would take otherwise. That can depend on how quickly M0 can be deactivated and black plate absorb however.

The limitations on M0 removing the current spell in the list is no different then trying to store another spell in his list, because it overwrites it.

If you guys also remember from a few chapters ago, the previous principle stated that someone that has a high will power and feel for their environment, will make a spell even stronger or more effective. So a 10% spell in the hands of Kuzumi, could equate to the same results as those that cast it, or at least make the difference that much smaller.


Also, for those commenting about using the black plate out of school, I think this chapter puts that down because of the fact that almost all the teachers have a black plate. It still might be possible, but I doubt it.

[Edit - Oh, another thing that the black plate will have over any other plates, is that he isnt limited by the number of magic points! Meaning that something like the class matches can go heavily in his favor just by being able to outlast everyone elses magic points.]

Anyways, im breaking my silence and starting to post!

Re: Mx0 94 Discussion Thread / 95 Predictions Thread

Anyway, it seems that using the stored magic doesn't use points... Well, at least I hope it doesn't use points, coz it is already hard as it is for Kuzumi, it might make all the effort until now not worth the troubles at all.:p
It doesn't. He didn't have any points left after the test and still used voice warp and that hand magic o.o
Well, seems to me like the next chapter(s) will be Kuzumi working for the committe to get some points back :P

Re: Mx0 94 Discussion Thread / 95 Predictions Thread

Wow. Just wow. This chapter was awesome. So much info gained. That Naomi seems suspicious of Kuzumi considering his relationship with Lucy. I wonder if that will make her either jealous of the mandrake or search out Kuzumi's secret? Aika, she needs to take lessons from her dad in intimidating delinquents. And all the teachers are Black Plate wielders? Cool, scary and dangerous, but cool. I guess this means every faculty member is really screened before hiring and seen if they are loyal to the school. If the secrets came out, I would think it would make a debate amongst them on whether or not to keep Kuzumi.

Re: Kuzumi advancing on two levels

Yes, he's level 1 and yes, the stronger the magic is the stronger his copy will be.
But VP doesn't know that Kuzumi has M0 and it's not likely that he'd help him. Sure, he could ask the principal but she must be busy and Hiiragi-sensei is strong too.

Re: Kuzumi advancing on two levels

That's the former Principal. He's the current one's father and also happens to be dead. The Vice Principal controls all 3rd years and sent a magic exec 3rd year after Kuzumi once.

No problem. We all make mistakes. Just some more than others.

Well, I was thinking that Hiiragi-sensei could've, theoretically, given him enough to use Holy Hand when they practiced, and then enough points after giving Kuzumi Voice Warp.:sweat

Theres one thing you guys, and possibly Kuzumi will overlook. Its that he can use M0 to cancel the dangerous part of a spell, and then use black plate to absorb the rest. This will reduce the possible damage he would take otherwise. That can depend on how quickly M0 can be deactivated and black plate absorb however.
Well, that can only be useful if Kuzumi doesn't have any magic stored in the BP coating, which would be also be impratical in Kuzumi's case.:sweat He doesn't have any points right now so using M0 as a partial shield would be very wasteful in terms of points, and Kuzumi need a lot of those points right now to get back in track in his pursuit of a Gold Plate.

Re: Mx0 94 Discussion Thread / 95 Predictions Thread

So it looks like Aika has an RB plate now, whereas Mizuki has a WB. Kind of bothers me that the former gained such a card, though I guess having the second most powerful magic user after the principal as a father helps a lot. Mizuki needs to catch up. :O

Now that you say that, there is an interesting point. Kuzumi can now use others people magic, and he has the m0 ability. What will Taiga do, the next time he is ready for an upgrade?
I mean, why would he now change his Bm0 for a normal plate? The m0 ability to me it seems that the other plates do not have it. (At least that is what I think) And besides, if he didn't make it the previous time around, why would he now, he would be in a bigger disadvantage now, as his fellows would be like 2 or 3 levels up of a Ri plate. Why would he ever change his plate now to the end of the manga? Unless, Taiga could get an upgrade, and would keep his m0 ability. I wonder if there is a m0 upgrade, unrelated to the black plate?

As an aside, why would a gold plate user would need black magic? Take Hiragi sensei, why would he need to do that if he already has great magic?

This is what we know from the manga:
Former Principal: The black plate is created by adding a special magic to the plate. The plate will then have the ability to temporarily store magic. This magic is very important.
Users with high magic capability would have more of it added to their plates, users with low magic capability would have less.
There are 10 levels in this test.
Your black plate will have magic added to it in accordance to the levels completed.

Kuzumi: But we´ll forget everything about magic after graduation, so what´s the use in testing us?
And the principal did say that if i had a normal plate, i´d have no noeed for a black plate?
Why do i have to specially come to get tested?

Former principal: You´re just a first year, so don't worry about it.

Hiiragi sensei: Your memorized magic is only 1/10 the scale and level. However the memorized magic can only be used once, and you can only stock one at a time, if you memorize soemthing, the previous one will be erased.
All of Seinagi´s magic teaching staff´s plates are black plates.

Re: Mx0 94 Discussion Thread / 95 Predictions Thread

Aika has been a good magic user for quite a while. She also had WI while Mizuki had C a while back.

As for magic points and their usage, here is how I understand it; The black layer itself stores a bit of magic. As far my speculation goes, normal cards use magic points as a basis of how many units of magic can be manipulated in the magic zone. The Black layer does not manipulate the surrounding magic zone, as it instead captures and releases magic that has been manipulated. This leads to the possibility of using magic outside of the zone as speculated by others earlier.

At the end of the chapter, Kuzumi did acquire a few points, and it wasn't due to Hiiragi-sensei but because of solving a MEC related issue.

Re: Mx0 94 Discussion Thread / 95 Predictions Thread

I really hope we'll get to see the effects of the forgotten information of hiragii-sensei upcoming chapters. It's great to know that H-sensei forgot to tell that using M0 cleans out the abosrbed magic. He even said it wasn't important atm but knowing kuzumi, he'll prolly get in that situation faster then we think

Re: Mx0 94 Discussion Thread / 95 Predictions Thread

ah, this chapter was pretty wicked. I figured for the time being Taiga would have bluff his way through since level 1 is so weak...but he used it pretty effectively his chapter. I wonder if that level of Voice Warp was as strong as Aika's? :)

Also, I wonder if it depends on where he gets his magic from. By that I mean, Hiragi can produce high levels of spells, and Kizumi can use 1/10 of those atm. So if the capacity of capturing spells with BMO is 10% of the maximum...and let's say hypothetically, 100 is the max. So if he got the Voice Warp from Aika, and she can use 10 points with VW, then he would have absorbed her 10%...

The reason I wonder is because if he's taking spells from other students, then 10% will be really weak. Voice Warp from Hirargi was semi decent because it was from a gold plate user, who use the magic at a different level.

At the end of the chapter, Kuzumi did acquire a few points, and it wasn't due to Hiiragi-sensei but because of solving a MEC related issue.

hmm that might be true, though we don't know when the points are added...I don't think they can be added automatically, they need to be given by someone? Maybe at the end of the week or something.

Re: Kuzumi advancing on two levels

haha, I love the ghost ex principal. He has some pretty strong magic, I figure when Kizumi goes for level 2 training, he will get some nice magic from there too.

And yeah, he needs to get magic from strong people...getting magic from first years, 10% of that would be horribly weak, especially since we saw the holy hand was so useless at 10% even though it was taken from a Gold Plate.

Actually, any MEC member will be awarded with points after they submit a report on about cases they've cleared up. It was explain in Chapter 12 or 13. I'm lazy right now so I can't be give a link for them that guarantees that those were the exact chapters.:sweat

Anyway. The points for the current case shouldn't be available for Kuzumi's usage until the report is at least submitted.

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

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??
