Well, we’re not going to have a repeat of 2006’s bet this year. Not unless Wonderduck wants to take the Vikings… and decorate his blog in Saints’ colors, that is!
Not sure who I want to see more in two weeks, the Jets or the Colts….
write a fifth post about railgun, just to include this link. Bottom of second and middle of the third pages FTW.
ANN now claims Railgun is a 24 episode series, though they have only air dates for the last ten. Raws of ep. 14 are out, but the Nyaatorrent link was bad when I tried it. Not that I understand enough Japanese to watch it raw, but that’s a measure of how the show has captured my attention, that I’m willing to discuss its physics to death and even watch a raw to figure out where the story’s going…
Update: Mazui posted their subs, and there is a preview for ep. 15.
Steven posted his promised discussion about the physics of Touma’s Imagine Breaker power over at Chizumatic. It’s very spoiler-filled, as is my response below. It started as a comment, but just kept going. I don’t know how to characterize it; it’s not exactly an agreement, nor is it a rebuttal. I’m just killing a few more catgirls by pointing out some implications in the worldview. Below the fold, since there’s spoilers.
So I’m in Dallas, watching Railgun with Dr. Heinous, and I’m picking up on some hints that weren’t obvious before. One of the things that occurred to me is that Uiharu’s power might be related to computers–her hairband of flowers is a red herring. She seems to be unusually powerful, in that she is able to quickly tie together all the CCTV’s across the district surrounding Tokidawa junior high, which amazes her friends. The fact that she is using a keyboard also surprises them. Uiharu remarks that its the only way she can do it so that the system can keep up with her. (I suppose the alternate is verbal programming, although we never see it used elsewhere.)
