Re: Itsuka Tenma no Kuro Usagi
What major villains? For all we know, this is just the opening arc. There are countless world linked to the Sacred Ground that he can use and an almost limitless number of enemies or threats that he can suddenly pull out of the air to fit it.ShadowZeroHeart wrote:Note: I only read the Denyuuden, the 11 volume prologueCosmic Eagle wrote:Why does it not seem expandable? On the contrary, the entire setting has just been barely fleshed out.
In Denyuuden, because the story only focused on a few kingdoms, there is basically nothing covered, and anything can be added in at any time.
On the other hand, as mentioned, Itsuten has had the major villains covered, and regarding lare's comment:Some of the power ups and all are cut really short, probably to move to the climax parts, but overall, I think there can be a lot more to talk about? But comparing against Denyuuden, I think it cant be expanded as much.Spoiler! :

Re: Itsuka Tenma no Kuro Usagi
Itsuten has two time limits, one being the end of world, the other being graduation, since the school only can open portals for people under a certain age. If each volume goes on by months per volume, the time limit(s) are reached too soon. Everything being packed over a short period makes things chaotic, as too much is revealed. Its like PowerPuff Girls, saving the world and be back in time for dinner?Cosmic Eagle wrote: What major villains? For all we know, this is just the opening arc.

Despite countless enemies or threats or worlds, these create limiting factors to the expansion of the series. The major villains being Gekkou's brother, and those manipulating fate behind him, Tenma etc. Basically those who are trying to go by the script. Others are mainly people/beings already in the script, thus either just fillers, or fodder unless those contribute to their changing of fate somehow(despite not knowing the script?)
Itsuten focuses a lot on this script(s) about fate. Though personally I am interested to see the stunts he will pull off, and I consider Itsuten a great story as well, I prefer Denyuuden. That is all I am saying.

Re: Itsuka Tenma no Kuro Usagi
Kagami has already said in volume 7 that the Core of the story is set in motion, which means the main plot is running. The resolution (I'm speculating, just as I did for Daiden) is either one or both of these: (1) Terminate Bliss (or make sure it's never invoked); (2) Rewrite the Prophecy.
I don't think there are any true major villains (at least for now). The main fight is against the prophecy. The Mad Witch (which currently is implied but not certain yet to be the God on the other side of the Moon) and the Tenma are pretty much upper tier God-Class Beings, and I don't think Kagami will pull out too many other more powerful God-class Beings (at most he will keep one; after all, he did pull a Remurus out in Daiden). However there are a few things that can run the story for some time (as in more than 10 volumes), one is that there are multiple stages of Bliss (which implies to me -- my speculation --- that either deactivating the first stage is not enough or they totally fail to deactivate the first stage at all). In my mind there are also a few unanswered questions which seem strange and confusing: one of which is in volume 4, Cross mentioned that he will complete Bliss in the epilogue. I still feel there's something weird about the guy.
spoiler for volume 7:
also, the association between the Gods on the other side of the Moon and the Tenma is not clear. One confusing thing is, the event in volume 2 makes one think that they are both the same: -> Haruka (supposedly created by the Gods of the Moon), but is actually (major spoiler beyond volume 6)
, disabled the barrier to allow the red rain to fall, but yet, the one chasing Taito and Himea are said to be the Tenma. But clearly, up till this point, it's quite clear they are not the same. This is most confusing to me, and I looking forward to having this clarified.
Another thing that can run the story is that there is a deeper layer or meaning behind the Prophecy. Knowing Kagami, somewhere, he will tell us the origins of all these and how everything came about. Yep, I'm quite sure of that.

Re: Itsuka Tenma no Kuro Usagi
I don't necessarily agree. While the school's portals are handy, the only specialty about the school is that they can go anywhere directly, safely. If it's just portals, Himea can open them, too, with some restrictions regarding secure target locations. If Kagami wants them to, they can deal with everything until they are old and frail. Well, I still think that it's not going to last after their graduation, if they graduate at all. Changing the setting to university or whatever would be rather weird. Well, it might last past the time they would have graduated if something permanently destroys the school or if they stop going.ShadowZeroHeart wrote:Itsuten has two time limits, [...] the other being graduation, since the school only can open portals for people under a certain age.
(Actually, is Himea ever going to graduate? I mean, has she ever gone to class? Apart from her first week, maybe? First day? The lesson she was introduced?)

Didn't I say that, minus the plot spoilers? Or was it just intended as a supplementary explanation? Because I see no contradictions so far...

And even more confusingly parts of both entities comprise the Black Rabbit....so they seem rather....dispersed over other characters?

You know...I won't be surprised if Kurosu actually founded the Military and was the one to have first contact with Liir....and somehow their relationship is central to his motives. His thoughts seem to suggest that after all.
Vol 2 also confuses me.....Haruka, a servant of the Moon was the one who brought down the school's defences but that just allows the Tenma, the arch foe of the Moon in to consume Himea....Why? Also the Blood Rain is specified to be the same magic as the Vampire Poison. Yet the thing chasing Himea and Taito was supposedly the Tenma. Does this imply that the Tenma's nature is same as that of Vampires? And aren't Vampires the servants of the Moon?

Re: Itsuka Tenma no Kuro Usagi
I've read the Hekusen raws. It's about Liene (I'm switching to this since it's a German name) when she was 14 in the witch school of Temperon Crowley. It's a little ecchi in the sense there's slight nudity and panties. other than that, it's more like a background story. I'm also done with v8; the next thing I'll probably read are the seitokaishitsu series. Gekkou is pretty much like-able now.
