It was just a suggestion. I saw Wildcat and InfiniteRemnant saying that they didn't like how the show was going, and I figured I'd throw in something that I thought might be entertaining based of what friends thought about it.

Could always do what a couple friends of mine do and watch SAO Abridged.

Do we need to post more signs around here?

I meant being in the process of resetting made them vulnerable, like they're gathering up all their knowledge and undoing any magic stuff they'd done over the years, their guard would be likely be down during this time, and even at the minimum of 500 years, Pandora would be more powerful and quite possibly capable of messing up their reset.

Don't poke the monster.

Pandora would have to be pretty powerful to block a nexus point between the to halves of the world. Also if Helena and Demetrius were close to needing to reset (Jerry was 208 so I'm guessing there's some leeway to the reset at 200 rule but probably a point where they're like "Ok we really should get it over with.") They were probably like "we'll save what we know and then get back to Edward". They could have been more vulnerable to an attack from Pandora, or as I said before, the reset might have been interrupted by them going to France to help Nanase and Susan. Magus entering the spirit realm and DGB's meeting about it happened a few months before the France trip so there's plenty of time for Edward to recruit Helena and Demtrius' aid. Another possibility would be Helena and Demetrius WERE in the process of resetting when Edward asked their help and they stopped the process. They may only have had a limited time before they improperly died.

That's why I said Edward is very likely the one that did so, he's well known to Immortals and has probably helped them on numerous occasions so there are probably several that would return the favor if asked.

It's never lupus.

Watch out for the pink (or purple) haired kid who may or may not be female.

Just had an epiphany about Helena and Demetrius' role in this story. Way back in "In the Shadows" we see Edward, Wolf and Cranium discussing their investigation into the disturbance in the forest and getting that warning from Pandora about the "Egg", they didn't get any more information about it so Edward takes them off the case and states his intent to "enlist the assistance of some friends" following it up with "let's just say there's a reason I know so much about Immortals". Remember how Jerry said that Edward was a VIP in the world of the paranormal. I've stated my belief that Helena and Demetrius have been following Elliot around because they were asked to, it's also been very strongly implied that Magus is the "Egg" that Pandora mentioned, and Magus knew that Helena and Demetrius had an improper death. I'm now thinking that Helena and Demetrius are the "friends" that Edward spoke of, they would be better suited to investigate the activity of another Immortal and if they did uncover anything important, their improper deaths might have been caused by Pandora to prevent them from reporting that back to Edward. Part of that info would have been the plan to use Elliot to get Magus back into the mortal plane but their memory only just mentions "blah blah follow blah blah Elliot blah" so they just assume that he needs to be watched but not sure why.

Give Mario a Hammer Bros suit?

Considering Akiko went behind her mother's back and gave Nanase cookies. I'd say it's very strong in her. Actually, Akiko referred to herself as the cookie fairy...maybe she already knows.

We'll hang on to the best puns for ya.

Anyone else get the feeling that Akiko will learn about Nanase's having magic before Nanase ever gets around to talking to her mom about it?

From the commentary for April 1st's story page: From that I'm pretty certain we should expect at least 1 plot twist left before the end. Possibly the reveal of the one who's EVIL? If it is Sirleck, then the "story arc with a number in it" could be a "T-Minus" arc? Maybe that will occur when the main eight and the griffons meet again?

It may be a matter of whether Nanase could project her consciousness into a doll through the barrier separating the halves. If the portal is always open (though hidden from plain sight) maybe? If the portal has to be opened by a skilled magic user, then I don't think Nanase knows how to do that yet, and then there's the issue of keeping the portal open so it doesn't prevent her from returning to her body. And even still, it's probably a large distance from the portal to where the griffons live in their half. So last week I noticed that Dan had been making the dates in the hover text all funky. This week, the dates are fine, but the hover text now has page titles. March 28th's is "Checking In" the 30th's is "Critical Information" and April 1st's is "Return in the Avengers".

Yeah, this is Fallout, not Sword Art Online.

Meeting at school would be tricky considering they go to separate schools, Nanase was able to get into North because of the chaos the goo caused. At the moment, Nanase and Ellen don't know that Diane's figured out Susan is her sister so they had been content to keep that knowledge to themselves. Of course now Elliot and Ashley know, but it's a safe bet they'd keep it to themselves as well, but if Diane were to reveal to them that she's certain that she's Susan sister and wants to contact her, there really isn't much Nanase and Ellen could do to stop her. They can advise against it because of Susan's history and not knowing she's adopted, but ultimately if Diane still wants to go through with it, she's got the right by blood.

http://www.egscomics.com/egsnp.php?id=440 Yeah, good luck there NPC.

Diane doesn't know where Susan lives, I guess she could go to Tensaided's video store and hope Susan's got a shift that day. Sending her a message through the review show, might make Susan rethink her view of the person who defended Elliot against the gay rumours. Diane had already told Nanase that she'd be interested in meeting Susan,well she was mainly wanting to meet Elliot but grudgingly agreed that meeting Susan "would be lovely", I'm thinking that since she now has a more important reason for meeting Susan, she'll press Nanase and Ellen into setting up a meeting. What makes you think that?

They likely did ask more questions off panel and Dan may have Elliot and Nanase mention it either when they get back to Charlotte's or more likely when they bring the others up to speed in the next arc. I still have a feeling that Diane will ask about Susan in the near future (I'd love it to be before this arc is done though). She's already convinced herself that Susan is her sister, she knows Nanase and Ellen are friends of Susan, Nanase stated in front of Diane that she helped kill a vampire before, that combination along with the fact that Diane was told she has the potential to be a vampire slayer has got to make her wonder if her sister also has the potential and maybe even already killed a vampire. So yeah, even if Nanase and Ellen still don't plan on saying anything, Diane will likely break the plan for them. You know, it actually wouldn't be a bad idea. It certainly wouldn't be possible for Nanase to contact the griffons in their half of the world as she's never been there, but if they kept the doll with them when they came back, as long as Nanase remembers, she can try to contact them when she thinks they should be back in Moperville, so she could let them know she hadn't forgotten about the meeting and decide where to go from there.

I still believe the current arc (alongside Playing with Dolls and Question Mark) happen January 11th. We'e been given no indication of another time skip between "Family Tree" and "Identity", so it's reasonable to assume that "Identity" takes place the first week back to school. Anyway 4 weeks would put it February 8th and Dan has stated the next main story arc will mainly be the main eight getting each other up to speed on what happened over the weekend, so as far as when Dan will get around to the next meeting with the griffons, could be towards the end of the year/next year for us depending on what else he does story wise between So a Date and the next meeting. There's still a possible date between Sarah and Sam, as well as a hopeful storyline for Ellen's upcoming "birthday".

We can claim Moosylvania as a territory of Newfoundland, the Newfies can have yearly motorcycle events and drive their Cowasaki's over.

You say that, but Canada and Denmark are currently "at war" already.

Yeah, the minimum made clothing snug but not constricting, but when Tedd tried to increase the minumum, it ended up with clothes growing to maximum size, in the pinup we see articles at what appears to be maximum size (The socks), as well as some that are at the minimum (the pants). The shirt seemed to be a mix of both as the sleeves grew to max but the torso portion looks unchanged which would explain the imminent breach.
