Quote:I agree.
Personally, I think that Academy Blues is worth slugging through Path of Vengeance.
Fortunately, it's not really necessary. The only thing I've found myself even momentarily confused about is 'Where did Hayate end up with a completely different magic system?', and that eventually does get explained satisfactorily.
I'm expecting Laura's device to end up being a shotgun or Garand or something, though. I mean, c'mon. American. Velka cartridges. It's frikkin' obligatory. And a rifle with a bayonet is a surprisingly badass melee weapon, so it's not even like she'd be breaking precedent. ^_^
Ja, -n
