First of all watch your tenses ( double negative rule, switching tenses in a sentence...) Ex. using has vs had, has is more possessive/present tense while had is past tense, Mephisto's soul has already ran far away into the sky, has denotes it's Mephisto's soul and that it's the present situation. Try to edit the very common sense stuff first, also try not to add references unless you clearly know about the subject or whatever, the uuu line is not said by Takeru you have to read it carefully. Other then that you did a good job, keep it up. P.s Add antimagic comments under the antimagic heading plz. And have your read the previous volumes of Antimagic yet? It makes editing the series easier if you have read them--[[User:Dual Blades|Dual Blades]] ([[User talk:Dual Blades|talk]]) 03:13, 27 July 2014 (CDT)

You know how there an Antimagic heading for your talk page (I made it) I have one as well so post any antimagic related comments under that heading. I advise that you join IRC that where Kry and I discuss the edits and stuff. It makes editing and communicating way easier/faster. Try downloading Hexchat (it's free) and join the channel #Antimagic. The 'and' is b/c it sounds better and you have to read the context/surrounding sentences. Look at the lines before and after the 'and made a request'. Also the 'regain' thing do you know the double negative rule? B/c had is already past tense so if you have had regain(ed) would cancel each other out so had regain would mean he regain composure, past tense b/c of the had. Also remember we don't have to be that formal with the english, just has to be accurate, sound good and stuff like that. Don't sweat the minor stuff. Also the 'managed' thing it depends on the word, remember Usagi took care of those scarecrows (brainwashed students) before she came to the roof so it's past tense. So she manage would imply present, managed would mean past, as in she took care of them already.--[[User:Dual Blades|Dual Blades]] ([[User talk:Dual Blades|talk]]) 15:07, 27 July 2014 (CDT)

Antimagic

The Mystelteinn thing prob is from Korezon lol, the incom thing I don't remember that but it's fine. Just follow the used terms and names, there should be a terminology page on the main proj page. As for relying on the original text Kry tries to follow it to the best of his ability. The terms we use may differ because Kry and I have discussed it and changes are based on if it sounds good, makes sense and so forth. As you can't capture all the nuances and such in the original text in english.--Dual Blades (talk) 00:56, 27 July 2014 (CDT)

Hey, "I had unconsciously intended to tell him that I had left it in the Shirone Kingdom." was originally "I had unconsciously made to tell him that I had left it in the Shirone Kingdom."

I wrote 'made to tell' because what's unconscious is his body movements, not his intention. You can't unconsciously intend something. But since it's been pointed out, I realise using 'made' there looks weird as fuck. Could you reword it so that it keeps the meaning, but doesn't interrupt the reading process?
