Actually, it doesn't, EML - we know that Asuna is, in fact, at least that old, and IIRC we never saw them in the same scene even during the flashbacks.

Actually, we saw Dynamis and Asuna in the same place during the Gateport incident.
It was part of one of my other amused observations: Nodoka did better against Dynamis in close combat than Kaede did the first time they met. :lol:

Now let's be fair here: we saw Asuna and someone in all-concealing robes at the same time during the Gateport Incident. If people go around wearing costumes like that, speculation that it might not be the same person all the time is perfectly reasonable.

I'd be pleased to be wrong; Asuna's Alternate Personality secretly being one of the Evil Nihilists would be entirely too soap opera.
We've already got enough of that with the Negisuna shippers, thanks.

Asuna as Dynamis would lead to a crowning moment of funny, on the grounds the reveal would almost certainly be by way of Asunas greatest weakness...
Clothing damage :lol

Chapter 281 is up.
Chachamaru activates her pactio. It is EPIC. And an invention of Chao's, which makes me wonder where some of the other pactio artifacts are coming from. By the way, is there a better way to do spoiler text? I couldn't find a button for it.

That's the best way I know of.

So... is it a reference to Bubblegum Crisis or Mai-HiME?

I'm almost certain that I've seen that 'wing' shape somewhere before, but I can't place where. I think it might be Scrapped Princess, but I'm not sure. It looks very familiar, which makes trying to remember very frustrating.

Wait, when did Haruna decide she was going to rule Mars? :lol:

...Oh, and think about this: Pactio artifacts can damage the bad guys.
Now, there's the possibility that they're being fueled by Negi's magic and therefore exempt from the Code, but I take it as further evidence that Chao created the Pactio System. Wioll haven created. Whatever.

First, Haruna's new ambition is especially funny because it is entirely in character.
Second, the killsat's wings look, to me, like the same design as the Ala Alba pins.

I was actually looking at the energy 'wings' that appear when it fires, but its normal wings do look like the Ala Alba badge. Sorry for being vague. My other guess was Tsubasa Reservoir Chronicle, so, umm, I'm probably thinking of something by CLAMP?

Ah. The style of the energy wings reminded me of Chao's tattoos, personally.

I was right about Nodoka being the key to Yue getting her memories back! It just took a little longer ... but of course, now it's going to be harder for them, with the shadow of the Class Rep between them.
Ah well. The course of true love never did run true ....
Y'know, I just had a really screwy thought.
Longest pactio kiss to date -- Negi and Chachamaru.
Most powerful artifact to date -- Chachamaru.
... does anyone else think that there might be a connection between these facts?

282.
Negi go sleep now.
That manta ship is pretty neat. But does it have a wave motion gun?
Negi gives props to Nodoka-chan. Turbo hyperblush time!
I smell a fetch quest. Haru sums it up. Mundus Magicus MMO! Will it kill WoW?
And... a confrontation is imminent. As well as a wacky misunderstanding. (Tomayto, tomahto.)

She's dropped the whimsey and is getting down to business. I think the story's going to get even more intense over the next few months.
(Besides, I think she looks good. If only she was at least a decade older... and real...)
