It's non canon to Toaru though. Anyway, can I see the mention just for reference?Von Neumann's existence is directly mentioned in the toaru Virtual On novel.
I can provide the original text for that right away.

It says, with all words, that it was a prophecy and that it had no fixed time, so it still can't be something as direct as death hax, maybe some kind of fate hax would fit better.Nah. The LN heavily implied that it was her "suggestion" that caused it.
Yeah, fate manipulation sounds fitting.It says, with all words, that it was a prophecy and that it had no fixed time, so it still can't be something as direct as death hax, maybe some kind of fate hax would fit better.
Virtual On Nevel: Many-worlds interpretation + Confirmation of the existence of the real-life person von Neumann (Extension to Hilbert space)
You're right, it is non-canon.
However, that novel was written using Toaru as its base setting.
This was specified in the afterword.
This novel was originally intended to be written based on Virtual On, but the original author of Virtual On advised that it would be better to include more of Toaru's worldview, and Kamachi accepted that advice.
In other words, just because it's non-canon doesn't mean that the ordinary theories that exist there don't exist in Toaru.
The only thing that can't be used in the setting because it's non-canon is Virtual On's unique setting.
Yes, yes. Theoretically, using a method that relies on the von Neumann architecture based on ordinary binary, you should be able to break through the portable device. Whether it's a formula or an ability, without exception.
In case you're talking about what I think you are, the difference is that that other verse you're referring to got actual statements and reasoning to get to 1A (not H1A, mind you), does anyone in Toaru have an actual statement saying they transcend dimensions? And alongside these statements is there more evidence supporting it?Doesn't this site already have a being who obtained the H1A tier just from the words of a mere magician who claims to transcend all dimensional theories?
It doesn't seem like there would be any problem with Toaru either.
Alice sure. Touma maybe. CRC only with magic, not physically. The regular Transcendents no, at least not in base. Mut Thebes would have been pierced through by a shot from the Predator Octopus if she hadn't absorbed composite armor in time.Which reminds me, if I haven't pointed it out yet, CRC, Dragon Lord Touma and Alice will all scale to at least 5B physically.
And while I am not 100% sure yet, other Transcendents can probably be 5B as well
- GT8 Chapter 1 Part 8(But it’s a good thing I chose the composite armor at the last second. Reactive armor sounds cool, but an armor piercing round would have passed right through it.)
I see no reason for the Dragon King to be any other tier, Touma's own stats were also seemingly raised while in Dragon Lord form so I think 5B is the most likely tier to scale him.Touma maybe.
He, just like Anna Sprengel and others, is able to use magic to amp his physicals and iirc he did it once or twice during his fight with Touma.CRC only with magic, not physically.
The Transcendents will be on a case by case basis, there's no way to apply their bullshit to one another.The regular Transcendents no, at least not in base. Mut Thebes would have been pierced through by a shot from the Predator Octopus if she hadn't absorbed composite armor in time.
To add, there's also her anti-healing that would stop Mary's resurrection.Here's all the major feats that I've compiled for Alice from GT-10:
1. Social Influencing/Mind Manipulation: She has insane passive social influencing bordering on mental manipulation.
"Hm? Oh, you mean Kotatsu Syndrome?"
If he was being honest, he had completely
forgotten. He had assumed that had just
gone away once New Board Chairman
Accelerator declared martial law
That strange form of group psychology led
people to passively protest their entrance
exams and the new school term by lazing
around instead.
It led people to shortsightedly seek peace
and comfort without worrying about the
later consequences
"Let's head outside" was all Othinus said. "It
may not be visible from here, but you will
see soon enough."
Skeptical, Kamijou walked to the hospital
exit after his release process was complete.
The glass door was partially soundproofed.
probably to make life in the hospital more
comfortable for the patients
Something was exploding outside
At first, Kamijou had no idea what it was
He really did think something was exploding in the distance.
But when he listened more closely, he
realized it was an amalgam of voices.
"I'm sick of this martial law! You can't tell me what to do anymore-
"They're keeping down the little guy. as
usual!"
"Flip them!! Flip all those armored
monstrosities!"
Was that a wave of people? Were those
strange voices and noises being made by
human beings?
"I already saw it all on the way here."
Maybe the hospital was so busy because
people were claiming to feel sick and hiding out there for safety.
"It probably began with the melancholy
caused by winter break ending and the new
school term beginning," quietly explained
Othinus. "Then the new Board Chairman
declared martial law and banned them from leaving their homes, so their frustrations grew as their vacation passed them by under those restrictions. When Alice Anotherbible's return triggered a resurgence of Kotatsu Syndrome, it pushed all the city's residents' minds in the opposite direction".
This is entirely different from the gentle
social phenomenon built on escapism. I get the sense that, whether it will help them or hurt them, they will yell at and physically attack anyone who tries to boss them around."
This wasn't Kamijou's first time seeing a
city-wide riot.
For example, he had seen Academy City
during the Christmas season when Anna
Sprengel had arranged the rise of R&C
Occultics.
For example, he had seen Shibuya on
December 31 flooded with the youths
influenced by the Transcendents Aradia and the Bologna Succubus.
But this was different from those.
When it was caused by Alice Anotherbible
the nature of the riot changed.
"It's beginning"
"Acute Kotatsu Syndrome is a very different
threat from CRC, who was the ultimate
individual. This is a new trend- a countdown toward destruction by a group. If nothing is done about Alice, Academy City will be brought down by internal violence.
Maybe it could be stopped by a military
force, but that would require Anti-Skill, or
whoever else, to fire live ammunition on the
people of the city."
Othinus stared into the distance
She was more bothered by the moral
collapse than by the actual destruction.
"These people treating Academy City like
their own secret base will bring down the
city. And the world economy supported by
science will go down with it. They can't
suppress this with force like they do with
demonstrations. Not when it's backed by
Alice's charisma. This is being fueled from
the outside. Aiming a gun at these students
will not stop them, nor will actually firing on
them. So like I said, the only way to stop this is to slaughter every last Academy City
resident with Academy City's guns. Win or
lose, the city is done for."
It Was a shift a distortion in morals.
Even if captured Index lost her life now,
would it be caught up in this bizarre scenery and converted into something that was considered "for the best"?
If so, Kamijou had to settle this before that
happened.
He had to draw on everything he had and
face Alice.
He understood what had to be done.
"But...
Misaka Mikoto had died. ******** ****** had died too. (..? Why did I think there was
someone else there?)
2. She has the power to make any theory that has ever been proposed a reality
He had never imagined the day would come when the word "god" had any relevance to the real world.
Both as a reliable ally.
And as a very real threat
"Basically, Alice is an extraordinary being
who can build a bridge between reality and
any proposed theory or concept, no matter
how inaccurate or contradictory it might be.
It could be the geocentric model, phlogiston, conspiracy theories about the moon landing being fake, that the Y2K problem would cause the world's computers to run wild and destroy the world, that neutrinos travel faster than light, or anything else. The Anotherbible provides freedom on a level far behind even the framework of magic. It might be faster to just say there is effectively nothing she can't do."
The 15cm eyepatch girl, who existed here
like normal, sighed with exasperation and
looked to the school once more
"But despite all that, Alice decided this was
the best shape for this place. That shows a
fixation, doesn't it? It implies that using her
all-powerful crafting to alter even a single
side path or building corner would cause
her to lose all interest in the place."
"But whatever shape it takes, this is already
Alice's castle. Human, this world will not be
kind to you"
3. At least High 1-C rating: Alice can control the world on the same level as what Othinus did as a full powered Magic God.
Kamijou thanked it and tackled his shoulder into the glass entranceway door.
It broke shockingly easily
Unable to stop his momentum, he tumbled
inside, where the world changed yet again
The change wasn't visible.
But all sound from outside was shut out.
The dark school building was so silent his
ears ached. He had shattered the glass in
the entrance door, but he doubted he could
have returned to the visible schoolyard if he
tried. He had a feeling he would be deflected or thrown back. Not that he had any interest in testing this theory.
The presence of Imagine Breaker suddenly
felt a lot less significant
It was a reference point for the world.
And so it could negate any and all illusions.
But that meant it had no effect on anything
that could distort even that reference point.
For example, his right hand hadn't been able to destroy the infinite worlds created by Othinus.
Alice could absorb the world to that extent.
She simply hadn't done so before now,
'What...is this place?"
Everything looked normal, but that was no
reason to relax
Kamijou felt like something was lurking on
the other side of an invisible barrier.
4. Her ability doesn't care whether a proposed theory is logical or makes any sense at all. As long it's been proposed at any point in history, Alice can make it a reality. Due to its NLF nature, it's probably best to simply add a likely/possibly (far?) higher to her rating.
Like Nostradamus, astrology, a dream that
comes true, letting a spirit possess you to
answer questions, or having an aquarium
octopus predict the results of soccer
matches.
It didn't really matter what.
It could be scientific or not and it could even violate the rules of magic. If the theory had been proposed at any time throughout history, Alice could build the bridge to make it real. Once a ridiculous theory began to operate, she could toy with it until it was hers.
It may have been less concerning if she had said she simply knew it to be true with no reason behind it. Because no matter how often someone's intuition was correct, it could always be wrong
But that excuse didn't exist here
The logic behind it was nonsensical, but it
did exist.
If Alice said it would happen, then it was
guaranteed to happen.
Why had he let himself relax?
She had never said a single word about
what hour, minute, second, or rotation of the Earth it would happen on
Now was still an available option.
Alice's prophecy was not over yet. The
predetermined outcome was still coming
Was it even possible?
Had it been definitively proven, or was it
only a theory?
Alice didn't care about that.
It could be the geocentric theory, phlogiston, an ancient nuclear war, or that dinosaur farts caused the ice age. Of course, it could also be something accurate like universal gravitation or quantum theory. Accurate or not, if a theory had ever been proposed - if someone had thought it up and put together the logic behind it - she could build a bridge to it.
She could choose whichever theories
she wanted and link to them to wholly
change the world. She was the ultimate
conversion device. She could place Yamatai anywhere she liked, she could invent a perpetual motion machine of the first kind to produce unlimited energy, or she could remake the spherical Earth into a flat disk.
So there just had to be a single section in
the more than 10 thousand grimoires
Just one passage
Even a single line would do.
No matter how absurd or difficult to achieve it was
Alice could easily activate it and save
Kamijou.
But.
Even then.
Index did not give a yes or no answer
She kept her silence
5. A limitation of hers; she needs to physically move to take an action.
"But Alice Anotherbible has had her
baseline purity forcibly increased, so each
and every one of her actions is pure without going through that process.'
"We should consider ourselves fortunate,
said H.T. Trismegistus
That was the gloomy young butler's
assessment.
Because..
"We are in fact incredibly fortunate that
Alice cannot kill her enemies with a thought or set the world in motion to kill her enemies if she wills it. This tells us she must take a physical action to trigger her attacks
Common sense says we are lucky indeed."
But that also meant this wasn't limited to
her scratching claws
6. Infinite speed when 'Walking': Alice can appear wherever she wills instantly, no matter the distance, and seemingly in no time.
She took a step
Just one.
"Touma, she's coming!!"
"!!!???"
He understood that, but he couldn't restrain his reflexes as a living being. Crossing his arms in front of his face was a definite mistake.
The sweet scent of tea filled the boy's nose
Something was overpowering the library's old paper smell.
Alice Anotherbible already stood behind Kamijou.
Walking
In other words, she took action to move to her desired location.
She had not formed a special shape with her fingers, nor had she stepped in a a complex pattern.
She had taken the same action anyone could.
She was blessed with a special result without having to focus on it.
The meaning extracted from her ordinary actions was just too pure!?
"Ali-!?"
She was already right there
7. Intangibility: Alice can avoid any attack simply by intending/moving to do so.
Kamijou spun around and swung his right hand back in something like a backhand blow.
But it found only air.
The grown woman pressed her four limbs down against the floor like an animal and lowered her head as far as it would go
Crawling
She had moved to his blind spot and then his last-second counterattack had missed. What this meant squeezed at his heart. He might as well have offered her the perfect chance to attack him.
The young butler did not hesitate to move.
Light flashed from his right hand as the blade hidden in his cane turned to light and sliced through the floor. The strange slash had an effect well beyond the length of the sword. And it struck right were crawling Alice's lowered head was. It definitely hit. Except the metal blade passed right
through her. Like she was intangible.
A specific meaning had been extracted from her ordinary action: evasion.
"It doesn't matter if you hit her or not!?" hatefully spat Othinus.
As long as the adult woman moved to dodge, no external damage could affect her. Even if she took a direct hit from a nuclear missile. Alice showed no interest in H.T. Trismegistus even with his attempted decapitation of her. Still crawling, she raised her head and casually extended her hand toward Kamijou
"I was right."
Apparently the young butler's attack had been to check something
He had ended up cutting through the floor below Alice instead of her, so it fell.
That had been his intent from the beginning
He had intentionally destroyed the floor so he could gather more information and survive.
8. Spatial Manipulation?: Alice can stop all movement of a target she chooses, isolating them from outside interference.
Alice grabbed her long hair as a single mass.
And she swung her head around.
In a move straight out of kabuki, the thick bundle of hair drew a large circle in the air, which narrowed down as soon as the crimson flames passed through it.
The orange flames stopped in midair.
Binding.
In other words, stopping all movement of a
target. And separating the target out from all possible interference.
"Tch!"
The Pneuma-less Shell was Anna's spiritual item but what weapon she acquired was a matter of chance. She wouldn't receive the same weapon if she tried again.
9. Already listed on her profile, but just as further proof, I guess. Time manipulation: She routinely kept stopping time during the fight.
She arrived straight up in front of him with a flowing motion
By the time his eyes had finally caught up, Alice's fingers - and their sharp claws - were extending lithely toward his throat
Time stopped. He tried to swing his head to the side and dodge, but his body couldn't keep up.
He couldn't die yet
He might die, but it couldn't be now.
He thought that so hard it seemed to burn into his mind. After all, the girl who had forgotten how to cry and instead howled like an animal was right there in front of him. He couldn't die until he had saved her.
Light pierced sharply in from the side.
Time resumed flowing
10. Not sure what to index this as. Perception Manipulation?: She can make every attack miss her by confusing every eye on her and bringing them under her spell.
A sharp voice rang through the broken faculty room. Aradia held out her palm and launched a scattershot of light to keep Alice back. Each shot moved like a sea snake as they tore through the air and targeted adult Alice from multiple angles.
The storybook girl said nothing
She didn't even look Aradia's way
She only extended a finger and rotated it once clockwise.
Like some kind of joke, all of the glowing
projectiles veered away from the fully-grown woman, blasting through walls and pillars instead.
Cursing.
That one childish action easily confused every eye on her, bringing them under her spell.
"Kh."
Aradia didn't even have time to gasp in shock
Alice really didn't look her way the entire time.
She simply changed the arrangement of her casually extended fingers. She curled up her middle finger and held it down with her thumb like she was preparing to flick something.
11. A form of Biological Manipulation combined with Weapon Creation?: Alice can turn anything into a weapon, be it an object or a living being, by simply grabbing it:
With a single hand, Alice casually grabbed the beaten-up Gryphon to use it as a weapon.
As if it were a giant club
Grabbing
The act of denying an object its own will and applying her own will to it by unilaterally wielding it for its offensive or defensive functionality
Anna could compete with Alice on her own, but that changed if Alice boosted her strength with something else.
That is, if Alice turned someone else into a
weapon.
That absurdly powerful magic could boost her stats by forcibly equipping herself with
something else: a sword, a shumai, a goddess—
anything.
(Is that a superior version of Mut Thebes's ability to absorb the shadow of any weapon!?)
Anna groaned and tried to raise her golden staff.
But Alice was again faster.
Alice was always a step ahead. To an unnatural degree.
She grabbed H.T. Trismegistus's wrist as he tried to attack her from the side. She turned him into a weapon, equipped that weapon, and swung it artlessly to the side.
A direct hit.
A dull impact rang loud.
In this case, taking Anna's side had been a
mistake.
Or maybe he had been thwarted by Alice's
tailwind.
That magic stole power from external sources. If H.T. Trismegistus had remained no more than one of Alice's toys, he couldn't have provided more power on top of her own.
The little villain struggled to breathe and a red clump splattered from the corner of her mouth.
The equilibrium was broken.
Despite dropping her golden cross staff, Anna clenched her teeth and stepped forward.
Another impact sounded.
12. Homing Attack: Alice can pinpoint the exact location of her target, making her attack a guaranteed hit.
Kamijou thought that came from something other than her intense emotion.
Then Alice made her next move.
Smelling
She sniffed out her target's precise location
Which meant her next move was guaranteed to hit, no matter how poorly aimed it was.
Once again, Alice swung H.T. Trismegistus
around with a single hand and struck Anna's little body with her boosted attack. The force of the blow caused the gloomy young butler to slip from Alice's grasp. No, his right wrist shattered like pottery. Only his hand remained in the grown woman's hand.
This wasn't like a home run in baseball or a strike in bowling
The two of them were knocked away with a
strange sound.
Neither one cried out.
Kamijou didn't even want to think about how much damage that had done to Anna.
13. Another weakness of her's; she can only use one of these special abilities of hers at a time, and not multiple at the same time:
Alice could extract miracles much like the
Pneuma-less Shell but without relying on any tools.
That knowledge came from Anna Sprengel
However.
'So why don't you just keep on 'crawling' while you attack? Then you could remain untouchable the entire time you send your unfair attacks our way."
"Since you aren't doing that, I can only assume you're limited to using one miracle at a time. For example, your 'crawling' causes any attacks to pass right through you, but it also keeps you from laying a finger on us, so you can never actually end the fight that way, can you? Your 'walking" and 'cursing' are the same. Your miracles are isolated things - they can't be combined or used in parallel!. Which means l've found your weakness, Alice Anotherbible. I don't know how tough you are, but you can't make yourself untouchable while you attack. The damage will reach you then!!"
14. Regeneration & Immortality: She can heal herself and bring herself back to life just by willing it. The novel reiterates that death is essentially meaningless to her.
Don't you get it? They're still here fighting alongside me."
"Then the girl will heal herself."
That was all Alice said.
She was so powerful she had never had a chance to experience defeat and so didn't worry too much about who won an individual battle. She didn't fear the possibility of being beaten and dying.
If she did ultimately bury the enemy who stood in her way, it was no skin off her nose if she died once or twice first.
Because...
'Have you forgotten, teacher? The girl already had her head crushed by someone calling himself Rosencreutz. And yet here she is as good as new. So it doesn't matter to the girl even if you do manage to kill her in exchange for severe damage on your part. The girl just has to resurrect herself a billion or even a trillion times if necessary and wait for you to finally wear yourself out"
If his arm was torn off, that thing would emerge.
He had proven that when he severed the arm himself to summon it against Rosencreutz
That would work if he was only interested in defeating her.
That thing may have been the only remaining mystery in this world that rivaled Alice.
But Kamijou had made a decision back then.
He had made up his mind.
He would never use that thing again. Never
against another person. Plus, a little thing like death wouldn't be enough to stop Alice!!
He took the full brunt of the attack as payment
15. Fate Manipulation/Probability Manipulation: She can seemingly protect those "on her side" by passively protecting them from taking any damage and ensuring their attacks always hit, even when they purposely try to miss.
“You didn’t find it remotely odd? We’re all regular Transcendents here. A clash between our two groups shouldn’t end so easily. Yet you’re being easily defeated in a one-sided game. Is it a bad matchup between the individual Transcendents? Do our spells combine so well it’s like we were dealt a royal flush? No, that could never happen.”
“…”
“No one can defeat Alice Anotherbible.”
For this alone, she took on a respectful tone.
Almost like she was reading off the handwritten creed only she believed in.
Blodeuwedd the Bouquet thought only of her own blessings as she spoke euphorically.
“You underestimated the meaning of that statement. And that optimism has brought you certain death. It doesn’t just mean you won’t survive a direct physical fight against Alice. There’s no getting around it. We control all of the coincidences and all of our baseless hunches and inspirations will work out in our favor. We have the trends of the world on our side. That is what it means to ‘resonate’ with Alice and take the winning side. To be clear, we are only firing blindly from the hip. You’re the ones ensuring we hit you.”
Vidhatri.
2nd Saga.
And Blodeuwedd the Bouquet.
The Bologna Succubus’s side was being worn down, but all three of them were unharmed. She had gotten a few clean hits in on them, so had they managed to shrug off the damage?
And she was slipping past their expectations and landing an attack they failed to dodge or defend against, so it made no sense for them to be changing their stance to reduce the damage with 100% accuracy.
That wasn’t their individual abilities.
It was their “resonance” with Alice Anotherbible.
“Defying her means death. You had lost from the moment you bet on there being an exception to that, like that you could move beyond her reach, hide where she couldn’t find you, or escape punishment if your defiance was indirect. Not that she would let you get away with this even if you had been correct.”
“How are you on Alice’s side when you only love yourself?”
16. Alice has all the abilities of the Transcendents, but significantly stronger:
“If Alice wanted, she could have changed the world you see before you in any way she liked,” said War God Othinus from his shoulder. “The consulate in District 12 is a good example of that.”
“I thought the other Transcendents made that.”
“You need to assume Alice can do anything the regular Transcendents can. In fact, her version is probably the original.”
“What do you mean by that?”
“Did you really think the Bridge Builders Cabal members created that divine cosplay spell all on their own without any hints to work off of? Remember, these are the people who abandoned their magic names and relied on someone else because they knew they could never achieve their goals themselves. …You can think of the regular Transcendents as custom products created by taking the open-source Alice Anotherbible and tweaking the details to fit their preferences. Where Alice came from, I couldn’t tell you.”
Othinus spoke harshly, but she was that way about everyone on Earth.
In fact…
“Hm? I don’t sense much scorn in your voice there, god.”
“Because I have no real reason to feel scornful,” readily replied the real god.
This wasn’t about what was correct. They simply used different methods. She spoke like a living national treasure of a dancer appreciating the younger people in a phone video who were simply enjoying moving their bodies.
Apparently that was analogous to the one-eyed girl who had gathered faith and polished her skills until she became known as a god and the Transcendents who had chosen various gods and dressed up as them.
P.S. There's other stuff like Death Manipulation (via essentially sentencing Touma to death), some kind Information Analysis (she was exposing JVA's identity and history as she was tearing him to pieces). There's probably more, but this is everything I have saved for now.
Schrodinger's cat is a real thing in Index, and it works, we all know that right?If it was not directly alluded to in the actual canon, I see no reason to use it to scale that to the canon, Toaru wouldn't be the first verse I've seen where there could be an upgrade using non-canon info and it wasn't accepted because the canon doesn't have the same statements.
In case you're talking about what I think you are, the difference is that that other verse you're referring to got actual statements and reasoning to get to 1A (not H1A, mind you), does anyone in Toaru have an actual statement saying they transcend dimensions? And alongside these statements is there more evidence supporting it?
Whatever other verses are rated as on the wiki have no impact on Toaru, they have their statements and we have our own completely different ones.
I've no idea why y'all care so much about upgrading Toaru to L1A, H1B or whatever and why y'all think it will be possible when there's barely any actual statement for it, it's mostly a bunch of mental gymnastics on a bunch of things Kamachi didn't ever properly explain or address.
Here's all the major feats that I've compiled for Alice from GT-10:
Snip
He couldn’t rely on Anna Sprengel or H.T. Trismegistus anymore.
The other Transcendents were a far way off too.
The ordinary faculty room was everything.
It must have been cut off from the rest of the world long ago.
So it was one against one.
Kamijou Touma vs. Alice Anotherbible.
As I said before, Mental Gymnastics, that won't get you absolutely anywhere here.Schrodinger's cat is a real thing in Index, and it works, we all know that right?
Now, Schrodinger is also the person who made the wave function in the first place, that's just a true fact already.
Also the only reason, and the only possible reason why Schrodinger's cat was even made, is because of Copenhagen interpretation, without it, there's no reason Schrodinger would care about making some thought experiment like this. Now, this also prove that the Copenhagen interpretation, or something of a similar name, must exists for Schrodinger's cat to exists. And wave function is also in many parts of the Copenhagen interpretation, too.
What does all this mean? This mean that wave function exists, but well, it must exists right? Like it is extremely important to Quantum mechanics after all.
Hilbert space plays a central role to integrate and determine the interpretation of wave function.
So like, Wave function exists because of Schrodinger and the Hilbert space, and Copenhagen interpretation must exists because schrodinger's cat exists too. Anyways, Hilbert space must exists.
The logic here is the same as if Newton never made any theories, the human society wouldn't be like how it is right now. Quantum Physics is the same too, we can't just say that because some theory wasn't stated to be there, mean that we shouldn't say it does exists even if something that was stated to exists prove the existence of all the other things that wasn't stated to exists. Something similar to Hilbert space and wave function must exist to push Quantum Physics to be that advanced in Index, it Quantum Physics in Index was just some vague, almost irrelevant thing that just there because it was there, then I wouldn't be relying on it from the start, but remember, it was there, it played a significant role, and it actually works as a real thing in the verse, it's not just there for show.
So, even if we can't give Index a proper low 1-A scaling, at least we could give it a defined possibility, not just "possibly far higher", it is concreted enough for a "possibly low 1-A" rating at least.
It's not just mere Mental Gymnastics, we already have working Quantum Mechanics in Index already, and Schrodinger's Cat also exists, Von Neumann was also confirmed to exists even if it's in a non-canon story.As I said before, Mental Gymnastics, that won't get you absolutely anywhere here.
No, if it's non-canon then it doesn't help woth the canon at all, in any way, shape or form, simply as that.It's not just mere Mental Gymnastics, we already have working Quantum Mechanics in Index already, and Schrodinger's Cat also exists, Von Neumann was also confirmed to exists even if it's in a non-canon story.
There's no logic in completely failing to fulfill the burden of proof that any of these things are effectively on Toaru and that Alice could indeed make such a massively complex thing like a Hilbert Space an actual thing.Well, it's not like I could do anything here, if they don't accept clear logic, but only clear statements, then it's fine.
Alice was stated to be able to turn any theory into reality, no matter how farfetched or close to reality it is, even 1 line is enough, That's the statement. We limit that to inside the verse and to Phase manipulation level cause of Othinus's statements (cause anything else would be nlf), and there we go, or you say that the statement means nothing? Like if Alice has only ever apply theories that affect a district for example, then the statement is invalid and Alice is a featless fodder? Then lots verse in fiction is fodder cause it's all statements, baseless statements with no feats. Alice is 100% capable of turning Hilbert Space into reality, it's a scientific stuff, nothing that went over the scope of the cosmology, like if someone say that Alice can somehow bring the Cthulhu Mythos cosmology as we know into reality in Index just because Cthulhu Mythos was there, I'd call it bs nonsense unless given enough context, but Hilbert Space isn't something that crazy big, and it's existence is guarantee already.No, if it's non-canon then it doesn't help woth the canon at all, in any way, shape or form, simply as that.
There's no logic in completely failing to fulfill the burden of proof that any of these things are effectively on Toaru and that Alice could indeed make such a massively complex thing like a Hilbert Space an actual thing.
You're basically saying "this thing that was never brought up in the series can be created by this character who never did anything even close to it, even tho the author never implied anything even close to such a scale".
If you think you're on the "logic side" then you're not understanding what is your own position here.
Scans would help. But anyways, if it's that simple, we wouldn't be here dealing with allthis. It's always tiny a lack of statement that ruins everything, and we know that Kamachi wouldn't do something like "oh beyond concept oh beyond infinite dimensions" or anything like that, he'd just mindhack us with vague statement and we'll still stop at H1C, again.Btw, you can prove 1-A through just Phases(all that bullshit with beyond the human world, and the fact that they can't be explained with numbers and letters). It's a lot easier than Von Neumann and Schrödinger.
Like imagine this, Hilbert space plays an important role in Wave function which also play an important role in Quantum Mechanics, allow everything to properly work, and Quantum Mechanic is science side's main reason why they could have esper power, and the sole reason why lots of esper powers that are related to Quantum mechanic (like Mugino's) even work to begin with. If we could just have that at the start then everything would've been so easy, but no, statement is required as always. And even after we got that OP power that accepts all kind of bs like Alice's ability to apply bs theory to reality, we will still stop at H1C due to lack of statement, can't even get a possibly low 1-A rating easily. It's a headache, really.Btw, you can prove 1-A through just Phases(all that bullshit with beyond the human world, and the fact that they can't be explained with numbers and letters). It's a lot easier than Von Neumann and Schrödinger.
Did you ever read the statement to be saying that?All Whole Number to be exact, no reason to just say that "Oh it could just mean that it can only cut 11 whole number dimensions" like no, nothing prove that possibility, that's just a wrong way of understanding it.
We've been waiting for an expansion on the cosmology for nearly 20 volumes now, I think, so I really hope it's something actually new and not just some random Phase (tho a Phase wouldn't really make sense, IMO, the afterlife existed before religions and their phases, but Kingsford naming her spell a "Hell Tour" could mean I am slightly wrong).I remember that white place where Touma and Kingsford's soul belong is described by Kingsford as "outside it all", I don't know if this is beyond all creation and cosmology or just another phase. But if it's another phase, it's contradict the statement above.
Nope, this proved otherwise, if the other statement doesn't fully describe the feat that I'm talking about, this one does, and since this one did it's job of filling the meaning that was missing, this would be superior and will be the statement above all unless a statement contradict this statement. The statement above does not refute this statement, it's just not as completed.Did you ever read the statement to be saying that?
"After all, his opponent attacked with a strike that could slice through all dimensions that could be represented with whole numbers."
Then we ask to that statement:
"How many dimensions are represented by whole numbers?"
The only answer we have to that is, guess what, 11 dimensions. The statement doesn't say "there is a spatial dimension for each whole number" at all nor does it imply there are infinite ones, the only thing it says is that Curtana can cut through the ones that do exist.
Also, damn, Kamachi does not follow the things he actually brings up in the novel such as relativity, for example, which I doubt can allow someone to travel to a temporally displaced dimension, so why the things he never brought up like Hilbert Space and Wave Functions or whatever else have to be inherently a thing and also the full scope one his characters operates at?
That's literally "I know these things exist, therefore the author should as well, meaning his characters can do it"
"outside it all" is quite a lack of context tbh, what does mean "all" in this context? The Physical world? All of creation (Phases, etc) or even beyond that? You could also say that Phases are "outside it all", which is outside reality where everything is happening. So imo in this case it being a Phase still make sense.We've been waiting for an expansion on the cosmology for nearly 20 volumes now, I think, so I really hope it's something actually new and not just some random Phase (tho a Phase wouldn't really make sense, IMO, the afterlife existed before religions and their phases, but Kingsford naming her spell a "Hell Tour" could mean I am slightly wrong).
Nope, phases is the filter of reality itself, and also containing another reality inside.You could also say that Phases are "outside it all", which is outside reality where everything is happening. So imo in this case it being a Phase still make sense.
Well yes, I know this, I know it mean that Phases are reality itself (or it could mean that Phases exists above reality to influence it, but this is a bit far fetched). The "reality" I'm talking about here is the physical world (like how in Assiah there is a physical world and a spiritual world), it's likely that Touma is in the spiritual world, as he described himself to be like one (and since he's dead and his physical body is back in the physical world).Nope, phases is the filter of reality itself, and also containing another reality inside.
No, but more like many realities stacked in same place. The difference only the wavelengths.Wait, if Phases contain a different reality inside them, isn't the latter interpretation seems more likely? Like if Phases shapes reality and also contain a reality inside them, it means that Phases itself could be above reality (or the Physical world)?
Yeah, but this raised a question, if this is true, why do Phases have distances from each other? Why can they even have a "wall"? Why can they even collide? That's what I've wondering about, maybe I'm just forgetting something.No, but more like many realities stacked in same place. The difference only the wavelengths.
It could just be that Phases do not stack like a building, but more like dimensions with the only difference is instead of the difference between the number of axis, it's frequencies?No, but more like many realities stacked in same place. The difference only the wavelengths.
Yeah, but this raised a question, if this is true, why do Phases have distances from each other? Why can they even have a "wall"? Why can they even collide? That's what I've wondering about, maybe I'm just forgetting something.
What if Phases are like those I described above your comment?Because Kamachi is confused, and can't conclusively decide what a phase is.
Nope, this proved otherwise, if the other statement doesn't fully describe the feat that I'm talking about, this one does, and since this one did it's job of filling the meaning that was missing, this would be superior and will be the statement above all unless a statement contradict this statement.

Did you take my previous suggestions on how to split her P&A and the resistances we can give her?I'm currently making the CRT (in a sandbox) for changes and additions to be made for Alice's profile. Feel free to add suggestions and any extra information that I failed to mention in my previous post regarding her feats.
Noted.To add, there's also her anti-healing that would stop Mary's resurrection.
By Alice Series, are you referring to her miracles (walking, crawling, grabbing etc)? I was already thinking of separating those from her Live Adventures in Wonderland ability/feats.And also, can we split Alice's abilities in her profile in tabs for her own abilities, Alice Series and Live Adventures in Wonderland? I think that would help to properly explain what each thing does.
The Dragon yes, but not Touma. If CRC gets his 5B rating from being able to harm Aleizon with his diamond, then Touma can't be 5B physically since he had his head obliterated by that same attack.I see no reason for the Dragon King to be any other tier, Touma's own stats were also seemingly raised while in Dragon Lord form so I think 5B is the most likely tier to scale him.
I know, but there should be a mention that he doesn't always have 5B physicals. When he's not boosting himself, he's just a regular human.He, just like Anna Sprengel and others, is able to use magic to amp his physicals and iirc he did it once or twice during his fight with Touma.
It's the name of her summons:By Alice Series, are you referring to her miracles (walking, crawling, grabbing etc)? I was already thinking of separating those from her Live Adventures in Wonderland ability/feats.
No? That just means CRC's diamond scales higher than Touma, I am pretty sure we saw Touma kicking CRC once or twice, not including the fact he was moving around so his speed was amped as well.The Dragon yes, but not Touma. If CRC gets his 5B rating from being able to harm Aleizon with his diamond, then Touma can't be 5B physically since he had his head obliterated by that same attack.
Oh, yeah.I know, but there should be a mention that he doesn't always have 5B physicals. When he's not boosting himself, he's just a regular human.
Phases is a realm beyond the human world. It is explicitly stated hereWait, if Phases contain a different reality inside them, isn't the latter interpretation seems more likely? Like if Phases shapes reality and also contain a reality inside them, it means that Phases itself could be above reality (or the Physical world)?
This mean that the next volume will answer 1 important question: Are Phases at least above the Physical world (the bottom layer in the 4 world, the downer layer of Assiah) and is at least on the Spiritual world (the upper layer of Assiah), or is it not? Since Touma is now Spiritual, combine with Kingsford's statement, it's 100% true that the place Touma about to go through (maybe hell?) is the spiritual world, and if the place he's going to visit is indeed Hell, that make the reality in Phases also 1 layer above the Physical world too.
And with Kingsford's statement, it would be more likely that wherever they're about to go through is above everything, including the hell of the 11D treatment.
And with this, we could use the Kabbalah to upscale everything else too (defining the position of Phases in the 4 worlds is important)
If we're lucky and get enough statement to prove that the reality in Phases are 1 layer below the Phases itself, then it's even better, though a bit unlikely tbh.
Expect something big next volume, I'm sure this is it.
After all, god had "expelled" Adam and Eve into the outside world for their sin, so life here was meant as a punishment. In that case, it was best to assume most of the world created by god was made to be unpleasant for humans. And the realm beyond the physical world would be even less pleasant. That was not a line humanity should cross before the last judgment.
