1. #1Holismselective

   Keys: holist, Holism

   Holism is the idea that natural systems and their properties, should be viewed as wholes, not as collection of parts. This often includes the view that systems somehow function as wholes and that their functioning cannot be fully understood solely in terms of their component parts. Holism defines that whole entities, are fundamental components of reality and have an existence other than as the mere sum of their parts.

   A Holistic Esper is an esper that is developed through the principles of holism. There is currently no person who has achieved becoming a holistic esper, and it is considered theoretical by Academy City scientists. However, efforts of Gremlin, and its leader, the Magic God Othinus, have made considerable progress into its realization.

   Unlike Academy City espers, holistic espers are based on major changes in the whole "system", the macroscopic world, to create a microscopic effect, which is in this case, their powers. Due to its incredibly roundabout nature, and despite the incredible change that has forced that power upon the esper, since the event required for the esper to attain powers are incomprehensible or unnoticeable to the esper, an esper of holism, might only reach Level 2 or 3 based on Academy City's scale.

    Ruthless in battle, Mugino is driven to dark extremes in her quest for vengeance against the 2nd ranked Level 5 Kakine Teitoku and his group, which leads to the death of her subordinate Frenda and ITEM's destruction. She then turns her wrath on Hamazura for protecting Takitsubo Rikou.

    After being defeated by Hamazura and a period of instability, Mugino reforms ITEM and begins to rehabilitate after the events of World War 3. She shows more care for her teammates and assists them, though she retains her vicious side when crossed.

11. #11Shokuhou Misakiselective

    Keys: Shokuhou Misaki, Number Five, The Queen of Tokiwadai, Mental Out

    Shokuhou Misaki is an elegant Tokiwadai student with long golden hair and starry eyes. Her large bust size is a subject of envy from Misaka Mikoto. Misaki's ability Mental Out allows her to control minds by manipulating brain fluids and chemicals. A former subject of the Clone Dolly project, part of Misaki's brain was removed to develop the Exterior computer system. She helped a fellow Clone subject named Hokaze Junko who suffered from headaches. Misaki and Mitsuari Ayu were once candidates to be pruned to develop the other's abilities further.

    Shokuhou Misaki is the 5th ranked Level 5 esper known as 'Mental Out' and 'The Queen of Tokiwadai' due to her powerful mental abilities and influence. She is introduced in passing in Index before officially debuting in Railgun and later in Shinyaku Index.

    Misaki was a subject of the Clone Dolly experiments which created her powers. She bonded with Dolly before tragedy struck. Misaki later met and fell in love with Kamijou Touma, but he forgot her after she used her powers to save his life.

    Keys: Academy City Board of Directors

    The Academy City Board of Directors is the governing body that rules over Academy City with absolute power. It consists of 12 members who make policies and decisions, though the true leader is Aleister Crowley as the Chairman. The Board sanctions major experiments like the Level 6 Shift Project. After Aleister's 'death', Accelerator became the new Board Chairman with control over the city.

13. #13Geographyselective

    Keys: Geography, Location

    Academy City is located just west of Tokyo in a region with constant wind flow, allowing its wind turbines to generate power. Its climate is similar to Tokyo, though it can more accurately predict weather patterns. The city covers an area roughly 1/3 the size of Tokyo. Its 23 districts each have designated purposes like residential, commercial, military etc.

14. #14Demographicsselective

    Keys: Demographics

    Academy City has a population of around 2.3 million, with 80% being students and the remaining 20% adults/staff. Most students live in dormitories within the city to undergo the Power Curriculum esper development program. While the majority are Japanese, there are some foreign residents as well. Admission criteria includes an entry fee, intellectual merit, or winning a lottery.

15. #15Education Systemselective

    Keys: Education System

    Academy City has the largest collection of schools from primary to university level, following a similar academic schedule as outside with breaks in summer and winter. In addition to normal subjects, the unique Power Curriculum Program allows students as young as 5 to develop esper abilities through drugs, training and testing - though only minors can participate. The city also hosts its own sports meet Daihaseisai and cultural festival Ichihanaransai annually.

16. #16Securityselective

    Keys: Security

    Academy City has highly advanced security protocols to monitor the population and prevent threats. This includes walls surrounding the perimeter, ID checks, hidden cameras, UNDER_LINE surveillance machines, and satellite monitoring from Orihime 1. Travel in and out requires strict background checks and nano-tracking devices. The city also has its own police/security forces like Anti-Skill and Judgment to maintain order. However, there are flaws that allow magicians, rogue factions like Item, and areas like District 10 to evade its security systems.

17. #17Foreign Relationsselective

    Keys: Foreign Relations

    As the world's most advanced city in esper and psychic research, Academy City is both envied and feared by outside countries and factions. It maintains a neutral stance towards the magic side, allowing magicians to operate within its borders. The city likely receives funding from military organizations interested in its research. Academy City has bases and cooperative institutions in various countries like the UK, US, Russia and Australia. It holds public demonstrations of its espers' abilities to strengthen ties with partners. However, many factions have tried to collect the city's 'Gemstone' espers for their own research institutes.

18. #18Militaryselective

    Keys: Military

    Academy City's formal military force is Anti-Skill, equipped with advanced technology like powered suits that give it superiority over most nations' forces. The city has alert levels like Code Red for terrorist threats that restrict travel and deploy security personnel. Its military assets also include the satellite laser Hikoboshi II for orbital strikes. The city will take preemptive action against threats to its interests, like sending clones to retrieve Gemstones or assassins to eliminate hostile leaders.

19. #19Technologyselective

    Keys: Technology

    Academy City's technology is 30 years ahead of the rest of the world. It conducts cutting-edge experiments on everything from vending machines to security robots, genetically engineered plants and animals. The city has an advanced space program as well as climate prediction capabilities. Mysterious tech like the UNDER_LINE nano-machines and the Orihime 1 satellite's Tree Diagram supercomputer aid in data collection and calculations for experiments like the Level 6 Shift Project. Other tech includes the satellite Hikoboshi II's laser cannon.

20. #20Orihime 1selective

    Keys: Tree Diagram, Orihime 1

    The Orihime 1 satellite houses the Tree Diagram, an immensely powerful supercomputer capable of making complex calculations and predictions far beyond modern technology. It was used to run simulations for experiments like the Level 6 Shift Project involving the Sisters clones. The Tree Diagram system requires constant maintenance and adjustment by skilled technicians to operate. Its destruction greatly reduced Academy City's data collection and analysis capabilities.

21. #21Rensaselective

    Keys: Cyborg, Rensa

    Rensa is a cyborg created by Academy City as an emergency countermeasure against rebelling Level 5 espers. It can copy and freely switch between using the abilities of any Level 5 esper from #1 to #6 by rearranging its interior machinery. Small parts of human brains are inserted as 'pilots' to control Rensa's actions. There are around 40 recorded individuals whose hypothalami were removed to serve as Rensa operators in turns.

22. #22Rensa #28selective

    Keys: Rensa #28

    Rensa #28 is the 28th recorded individual whose hypothalamus was removed to pilot the Rensa cyborg body. She is soft-spoken, nearly expressionless, and has a rational thinking process focused on following objectives set by Yakumi Hisako. Rensa #28 prefers using projectile attacks with Rensa's copied abilities unless her defence falls behind. She was eventually defeated by Kamijou Touma when trying to absorb his Imagine Breaker power.

23. #23Rensa #29selective

    Keys: Rensa #29

    Rensa #29 is more aggressive, vicious and willing to take risks compared to #28. Saved from a difficult situation by Yakumi Hisako, she became fiercely loyal and willing to sacrifice herself for Hisako's sake. Rensa #29 prefers using Accelerator's abilities, especially his black wings, in close combat due to her sloppy strategy. She was eventually defeated by Kamijou Touma while trying to protect Hisako.

24. #24Yakumi Hisakoselective

    Keys: Yakumi Hisako

    Yakumi Hisako was a member of Academy City's Board of Directors and ran her own hospital which doubled as a secret research facility. Brainwashed by Kihara Yuiitsu, she developed an intellectual curiosity that led her to create the Agitate Halation Project - a scheme to become an AIM Thought Being by manipulating Academy City's AIM diffusion fields. Though she succeeded initially, Hisako's existence was eventually devoured by Fräulein Kreutune, leaving only a sliver that cannot die or achieve her ambitions as punishment.

25. #25Frälein Kreutuneselective

    Keys: Frälein Kreutune, Kreutune

    Fräulein Kreutune is a mysterious, seemingly human, woman who has existed since the age of witch hunts and is impervious to conventional forms of damage. She has an innate drive to learn and transform after acquiring enough information, making her a threat to the current world order centered on humanity's use of science. Kreutune was imprisoned in Academy City's Windowless Building until freed by Kamijou Touma and Thor. She later gained the ability to gain others' knowledge by eating their brains, developing a compulsion to consume Last Order's brain. However, Touma managed to trick her into eating a decoy brain, saving Last Order. Kreutune befriended Fremea Seivelun and her allies during these events.

26. #26Itemselective

    Keys: Item

    Item is an Academy City-based mercenary organization whose role is to monitor the upper echelons like the Board of Directors and prevent them from gaining too much power. Its original incarnation was virtually destroyed during the events of October 9th, with only Kinuhata Saiai remaining. Item was later reorganized with remnants of other groups like Member, School and Block. After World War III, Mugino Shizuri reconciled with the remaining members and reformed the group, becoming the only dark side faction to survive the war.

27. #27Fremea Seivelunselective

    Keys: Fremea Seivelun

    Fremea Seivelun is the younger sister of the late Frenda Seivelun from Item. An 8-year-old elementary student, she becomes connected to various events in Academy City simply by existing. Fremea possesses the 'Agitate Halation' effect that subconsciously influences the AIM diffusion fields, manipulating so-called 'heroes' to feel compelled to protect her. This made her the lynchpin of Yakumi Hisako's Agitate Halation Project scheme. Despite her helpless aura attracting protectors, Fremea eventually develops resolve to protect others instead of waiting to be saved. She befriends Last Order, Fräulein Kreutune and others during the course of events.

28. #28Agitate Halation Projectselective

    Keys: Agitate Halation Project

    The Agitate Halation Project was Yakumi Hisako's ambitious scheme to transfer her consciousness into Academy City's AIM diffusion fields, becoming an AIM Thought Being. Officially presented as a countermeasure against troublesome 'heroes' in the city, its true nature involved manipulating the diffusion fields to influence people into feeling compelled to 'protect' Fremea Seivelun. This 'Agitate Halation' effect made Fremea a linchpin allowing Hisako to anchor herself in the diffusion fields. However, Fremea eventually overcame her role, took control of the diffusion fields herself, and used them against Hisako, foiling her plans.

29. #29Aiwassselective

    Keys: Aiwass

    Aiwass is a mysterious, transcendent being from the deepest regions of the world, once the mentor of Aleister Crowley. Referred to as a Holy Guardian Angel, Extraterrestrial Life Form and other monikers, Aiwass instructed Crowley on magics no human could use, recorded in the Book of the Law. Dismissive of human affairs, Aiwass's only motivation seems to be experiencing interesting things.

    A key part of Crowley's plan, Aiwass requires special rituals involving the AIM diffusion fields of Academy City and the Misaka Network to manifest on the surface. It displayed immense power when confronting characters like Accelerator. Though supposedly a 'failure' in Crowley's eyes, it continues observing events while offering occasional cryptic advice.

30. #30Kinuhata Saiaiselective

    Keys: Kinuhata Saiai

    Kinuhata Saiai is a 12-year-old Level 4 esper and operative of the mercenary group Item in Academy City's dark side. Her ability 'Offense Armor' allows her to control nitrogen for defensive barriers and physical attacks. Originally an atmospheric esper, Saiai underwent horrific experimentation where Accelerator's thought patterns were implanted in her brain, greatly boosting her power.

    Saiai has a mellowed, playful personality but is serious on missions. She enjoys teasing Hamazura Shiage and watching low-budget B-movies. A capable fighter, Saiai uses her Offense Armor's defenses combined with liquid nitrogen canisters to counter her weaknesses. She eventually becomes one of Shiage's closest allies in Academy City's underworld.

31. #31Hamazura Shiageselective

    Keys: Hamazura Shiage

    Hamazura Shiage is a core member of the dark side group Item and proves himself protecting Takitsubo Rikou. Despite being a powerless Level 0, Shiage relies on his wits and skills to survive against powerful opponents, even defeating the 4th ranked Level 5 Mugino Shizuri. His continued survival against the odds disrupts Aleister Crowley's plans.

    Originally from Komaba Ritoku's Skill-Out faction, Shiage becomes a subordinate of Item. When the group is targeted by the rival organization School, he escapes with Rikou and falls in love with her, deciding to protect her from Academy City's dark side. After defeating Mugino, he flees the city with Rikou.

    Following his return after World War III, Shiage reunites the scattered Item and they begin acting as a family with Fremea Seivelun. He gets involved in incidents in Academy City and beyond together with Kamijou Touma and Accelerator. His presence as an unlikely powerless hero surviving against the odds continues to be an unpredictable element for Aleister.

32. #32Frenda Seivelunselective

    Keys: Frenda Seivelun

    Frenda Seivelun was an operative of the Academy City dark side group Item. A blonde girl with a verbal tic of saying "Basically" frequently, she was a skilled combatant specializing in explosives, concealed weapons and traps. Despite her cute appearance, she had a vicious and ruthless side.

    Originally a minor character used to expand on Mugino Shizuri's mental instability, Frenda was the older sister of Fremea Seivelun. Her hidden softer side is shown through her many connections outside of the dark side and birthday presents she prepared for acquaintances.

    During the Battle Royale arc, out of fear of being killed by the rival group School, Frenda betrayed Item's whereabouts to School under the promise of being spared. However, Mugino found out about the betrayal and brutally murdered Frenda, cutting her in half with her Meltdowner. This permanently scarred Mugino mentally.

    Despite her death, Frenda's presence continued to linger. Mugino would later regret killing her. Her friendship with Kanou Shinka would play a key role in the events surrounding St. Germain. Her little sister Fremea would end up in the care of the remaining Item members.

33. #33Takitsubo Rikouselective

    Keys: Takitsubo Rikou

    Takitsubo Rikou is a core member of the Academy City dark side group Item and the girlfriend of Hamazura Shiage. She has the esper ability AIM Stalker, allowing her to track other espers after recording their AIM fields. This makes her a key asset for Item. However, initially she could only use her power with the help of the harmful Ability Body Crystal drug.

    Despite her tired and apathetic appearance, Rikou is a kind and caring person at heart, valuing her Item comrades. After Mugino began to go down a dark path, Rikou became disillusioned with Item. She fell in love with Shiage and fled Academy City with him.

    Rikou has immense potential, with researchers speculating she could become the 8th Level 5 and freely control other espers' Personal Realities. This makes her a target for many in the dark side. After overusing Body Crystal, her health was in critical condition, but she slowly recovered.

    Following the reformation of Item, Rikou acts like a couple with Shiage, often getting jealous when other girls get close to him. She continues to support him in various incidents with her ability. Her bond with Shiage is the key to unlocking her true potential.

34. #34Arrowhead Cometselective

    Keys: Arrowhead Comet

    The Arrowhead Comet is a comet that approaches Earth once every 1700 years. Largely made of ice and dust, it was suspected to contain an undiscovered seventh type of achondrite that could provide clues about the solar system's formation.

    Academy City built an unmanned probe called Parasatellite 01 to investigate the comet during its latest approach. The probe was to be launched from an underground rail gun in School District 23 to match the comet's high velocity.

    During the Magic God Invasion, the High Priest was launched into space by the same rail gun intended for the probe. He seized control of the Arrowhead Comet using his power over dirt and tried to crash it into Academy City. However, he was killed by Kihara Noukan before impact and the comet was destroyed, shattering windows across the city.

35. #35Kazakiri Hyoukaselective

    Keys: Kazakiri Hyouka

    Kazakiri Hyouka is the conscious manifestation of the aggregation of AIM diffusion fields of espers in Academy City, known as the Imaginary Number District. She is referred to as the "Key" to this realm. Despite not being human, Hyouka enrolled in Kirigaoka Girls' Academy under the ability name Counter Stop and was consistently at the top of the school rankings.

    Hyouka first meets Index by chance and they quickly become friends, with Index considering her to be her first friend made on her own in the city. Hyouka has a gentle and caring nature, but has great fear and angst over her non-human existence. During the Kazakiri Hyouka Arc, she protects Index from the magician Sherry Cromwell, revealing her nature. Though shocked, Index affirms their friendship.

    Hyouka has great power in her basic form and the Fuse Kazakiri mode accessed by Last Order, but cannot manifest for long due to her AIM-based existence. She subconsciously fears Touma's Imagine Breaker and its negating power. Hyouka plays a key role in Aleister's plans as she is used as the basis for Aiwass to manifest. She occasionally appears to aid her friends in incidents when she is able.

36. #36High Priestselective

    Keys: High Priest

    The High Priest is a Magic God and core member of the true Gremlin. His real name is unknown.

    The High Priest attempted to reach Buddhahood through self-mummification, but was sabotaged and became a Magic God instead, twisting his mind in the process. Like other Magic Gods, his immense power would normally destroy the world just by existing there.

    After Aleister Crowley used Zombie's spell to send the Magic Gods into the world in a safely nerfed state, the High Priest contacted Touma and requested he become a 'scorer' for the Magic Gods' game. When refused, the High Priest rampaged through Academy City in pursuit of Touma.

    The High Priest's primary power is based on his connection to dirt from his self-mummification, allowing him to manipulate earth on a massive scale. He also has some ability to manipulate the Six Paths that is not fully known. Even when weakened, the High Priest could easily survive Touma's assaults. He was finally killed by Kihara Noukan using the Anti-Art Attachment after attempting to crash the Arrowhead Comet into Academy City.

37. #37AIM Thought Beingselective

    Keys: AIM Thought Being

    An AIM Thought Being is a consciousness or 'mental entity' that manifests itself through AIM diffusion fields, the invisible energy fields produced by espers. They mainly originate from Academy City.

    Yakumi Hisako turned herself into an AIM Thought Being by transferring her consciousness into the Shading Computer, a device that uses AIM diffusion fields as a medium. In this state, she claimed to have "stepped into the realm" of beings like Kazakiri Hyouka and Aiwass. Unlike them though, Hisako could communicate with others as an AIM Thought Being. Her form was eventually destroyed by Touma's Imagine Breaker.

    It's unclear how similar AIM Thought Beings are to Hyouka and Aiwass in nature. Those two existed before Academy City in some form and have more limitations in interacting with the normal world. An AIM Thought Being seems to be a formless consciousness using AIM fields, while Hyouka and Aiwass have some manner of 'body' and can go to other planes. The mechanics behind these different AIM-based existences are still vague.

38. #38Shading Computerselective

    Keys: Shading Computer

    A Shading Computer is a next-generation computer proposed by fluid mechanics expert Matsusada. It performs calculations by using the movement of fluids like a liquid or gas rather than traditional architecture. This allows it to have processing power surpassing normal computers.

    Matsusada theorized that a network of AIM diffusion fields could be used as a special medium for a Shading Computer. The esper-produced energy could be controlled and influenced to make calculations. However, he warned it would be very dangerous, as espers connected to the fields could manipulate the computer and have information flowed back into them in a seemingly divine revelation.

    Yakumi Hisako created an AIM diffusion field-based Shading Computer for her Agitate Halation Project. She used it to influence the minds of espers and transfer her own consciousness to become an AIM Thought Being. Matsusada's theory about espers connected to the Shading Computer being able to manipulate it was proven true when Fremea Seivelun, the core of the system, overwrote Hisako's control. The potential of Shading Computers using AIM is immense but perilous.

39. #39Hamazura Brigadeselective

    Keys: Hamazura Brigade

    The Hamazura Brigade is a group formed by Fremea Seivelun during the Ichihanaran Festival. It is named after her caretaker, Hamazura Shiage.

    The known members of the Hamazura Brigade include:

    • Fremea Seivelun (leader)
    • Hamazura Shiage
    • Last Order
    • Beetle 05 (Kakine Teitoku)
    • Fräulein Kreutune

    Fremea made Beetle 05 an official member by scribbling the brigade's mark on its shell. The group's guiding principle, according to Fremea, is to help friends and never abandon them no matter what.

    Though small and informal, the brigade played a key role during the festival incident, with the members working together to resolve the crisis surrounding Fräulein Kreutune and Kakine Teitoku. The name represents the bonds Fremea has formed with her friends and guardian.

40. #40Last Orderselective

    Keys: Last Order

    Last Order is the 20001st Sister, the last clone produced in the Sisters Project. She has the appearance of a 10-year-old Misaka Mikoto. Unlike the other clones, she is the administrator of the Misaka Network and acts as a command tower for the other Sisters. This makes her an extremely valuable asset to various factions.

    Last Order first meets Accelerator after the Level 6 Shift Project, with him becoming her guardian and protector. She has a cheerful and childish personality, often speaking in third-person. She is deeply attached to Accelerator and cares greatly for her fellow clones.

    Like the other Sisters, Last Order is a Level 3 Electromaster and can access the memories of the Misaka Network. As the administrator, she has heightened privileges and can send commands to the other Sisters. Her position also makes her integral for the manifestation of beings like Aiwass or Fuse=Kazakiri.

    Last Order often gets involved in the many incidents surrounding Accelerator and his allies. She serves as his moral compass and emotional support. Their bond helps Accelerator maintain his humanity.

41. #41Magic Godselective

    Keys: Magic God

    A Magic God is a Magic Side term referring to a being who has mastered magic to the point of transcending normal magic and stepping into the realm of God. According to Silvia, a Magic God's power is even more troublesome than a great number of grimoires.

    To become a Magic God, a magician must master a specific path of magic to the very end and perform a special ritual, which seems to involve some form of self-sacrifice or symbolic death. Upon successfully becoming a Magic God, the individual gains the power to bend all things in the world without exception.

    However, a Magic God is an existence of 50/50 - they simultaneously hold the possibilities of success and failure, and so their magic is a 50/50 shot. Only a 100% success rate or a 100% failure rate can unify their infinite possibilities. There are also Impure Magic Gods who stopped their growth right before the final step and have weaker but more stable powers.

    Known Magic Gods include the members of the true Gremlin like Othinus, the High Priest, Nephthys, and Niang-Niang. Aleister Crowley and Ollerus had the potential but did not become Magic Gods.

42. #42La Persona Superiore a Dioselective

    Keys: The One Above God, La Persona Superiore a Dio

    La Persona Superiore a Dio, Italian for "The One Above God", is one of the highest statuses in the Magic Side. It refers to an existence that surpasses even the level of God.

    God's Right Seat, a group of powerful Christian magicians, aimed to achieve this state by purifying themselves of Original Sin and gaining the angelic attributes of the Archangels - Uriel, Raphael, Gabriel, and especially Michael. By sitting at the Right Seat of God, they would become equal to Him, but La Persona Superiore a Dio was the next step beyond that.

    It's said that Lucifer was the first to sit at the Right Seat and attempt to surpass God, but was cast down. Fiamma of the Right, leader of God's Right Seat, later briefly achieved La Persona Superiore a Dio during World War III by using the power of his Holy Right and the Imagine Breaker. However, he was defeated by Kamijou Touma before he could fully establish his position.

    The term "Kamijou" in Japanese (神上 Kamijō) can also be read as "The One Above God", alluding to Touma's hidden power which surpassed Fiamma's.

43. #43Othinusselective

    Keys: Othinus

    Othinus is a character introduced as a powerful Magic God and the leader of the magic cabal Gremlin. She is based on the Norse god Odin, wearing an eyepatch over her right eye which she removed as a sacrifice for great wisdom.

    Originally ruthless and desiring to perfect her power by creating Gungnir, Othinus eventually comes to an understanding with Kamijou Touma after putting him through immense suffering. She survives only due to his efforts and is reduced to 15cm in size with much of her former power lost.

    As a Magic God, Othinus was nearly omnipotent, capable of instantly destroying the world and reshaping it as she pleased. She needed Gungnir and to exploit the rules of Magic Gods to work around the 50/50 limitation. Her powers were associated with Odin's, including using the dead as Einherjar soldiers.

    After becoming 15cm, Othinus lost most of her power but retained her knowledge. She serves as an adviser to Touma and slowly develops feelings for him.

44. #44Nephthysselective

    Keys: Nephthys

    Nephthys is a Magic God and member of the True Gremlin. She is based on the goddess of the same name from Egyptian mythology, who was associated with mourning, funeral rites, and the dead. Nephthys is a beautiful woman with chocolate-brown skin, long silver hair, and color-changing eyes. She has teardrop and diamond markings below her eyes. Nephthys wears nothing but white bandages covering her body, with several having pyramid-shaped decorations at the ends.

    Nephthys's origins are unclear, but her divinity is thought to stem from the "crying woman" hired to attend funerals in ancient Egypt, specifically the many servants buried alive with the pharaoh. Nephthys herself was born in one such pyramid from the gathered knowledge of those buried.

    As a Magic God, Nephthys wields immense power and specializes in spells that involve separation, division, and transference of her being. Her magic is strongly tied to her tears, either boosting her targets or sending their power out of control.

    Despite looking down on humans, Nephthys does envy and admire their ability to dream and reach for the stars. She has a surprisingly strong sense of justice and opposes cruel rituals. Nephthys later sacrifices herself to save Patricia Birdway's life.

45. #45Niang-Niangselective

    Keys: Niang-Niang

    Niang-Niang is a Magic God and member of the True Gremlin. Her name is derived from a respectful Chinese term for "mother" and is used for various mother goddesses in Chinese folk religion, most commonly the fertility goddess Songzi Niangniang. She wears a short white China dress with baggy sleeves, a unique hat and charm on her forehead. She has extremely pale skin, black hair and green eyes.

    Niang-Niang is an ancient Shijie-Xian of China who voluntarily took her own life to become a "heretical" immortal, stripping away worldly impurities. Her exact origins beyond that are unknown.

    As a Magic God, Niang-Niang has immense power and is capable of destroying the world even when weakened. Her unique magic allows her to transform her fingertips into various weapons known as Pao-Pei, based on those wielded by sages in ancient Chinese novels. She can conjure over a hundred different Pao-Pei, each with different deadly abilities.

    Niang-Niang has a playful personality and tends to end her sentences cutely. She gets angry with Othinus for acting on her own and appears to like having company. Niang-Niang is a dangerous fighter but seems to prefer playing around over serious confrontation.

46. #46Patricia Birdwayselective

    Keys: Patricia Birdway

    Patricia Birdway is the 12-year-old younger sister of Leivinia Birdway. Unlike her older sister, Patricia is not involved in magic and is unaware of Leivinia's role as the leader of the Dawn-Colored Sunlight magic cabal.

    Despite her young age, Patricia is an academic prodigy who already has a PhD and has published over 20 research papers. She regularly participates in university research projects and has even been sponsored by Academy City as a guest researcher in their labs.

    Patricia has a similar appearance to Leivinia but a completely opposite personality. She is much friendlier and lacks Leivinia's haughty attitude. While usually timid, Patricia will try to be brave when someone close to her is in danger.

    During a research trip to Antarctica, Patricia was infected by the parasite Sample Shoggoth which consumed all the fat in her body. Leivinia desperately sought a magical cure involving African cannibalization legends. This eventually led both sisters to clash in Academy City.

47. #47Leivinia Birdwayselective

    Keys: Leivinia Birdway

    Leivinia Birdway is the leader of the Dawn-Colored Sunlight, the largest magic cabal in London.

    Leivinia is a powerful magician who wields the Symbolic Weapon, which can transform between a wand, cup, sword and disc to use the four elemental magics. She also uses the Major Arcana tarot cards to boost her parameters. Her magic focuses more on symbolism and repetition than complex ceremonies.

    As a leader, Leivinia is haughty, manipulative and always puts her cabal first. However, she also has childish traits like arguing with other little girls, loving efforts and hard work, and being very protective of her little sister Patricia.

    Leivinia often gets involved with Kamijou Touma and his allies during incidents in the magic side, usually recruiting their help through manipulative means which causes friction. She played a major role in the battles against Gremlin and magic gods like Othinus.

48. #48Kihara Familyselective

    Keys: Kihara Clan, Kihara Family

    The Kihara Family is one of the largest gatherings of scientists that work for Academy City's dark side and are forerunners of twisted human experiments. Many of them hold high-ranking positions in multiple Academy City organizations.

    All Kiharas have a natural aptitude for science and gravitate towards the most evil actions by human standards, completely disregarding morals and ethics for the sake of experimenting, even on their own family members. This stems from the original seven who fell into madness and villainy while crystallizing the 'Kihara' concept.

    The Kiharas are not necessarily all blood-related, but are a single bloodline of over 5000 that possesses the name. However, it is not a necessity as others can take up the name if the bloodline was wiped out. They reside in Academy City because it is the capital of science but have no other attachment to it.

    A rare few Kiharas like Kihara Kagun and Kihara Noukan have shown some concern for others or regret over their actions. Some like Accelerator, Kamijou Touma and Kagun are considered 'Anti-Kiharas' that oppose the family's principles.

49. #49Kamisato Kakeruselective

    Keys: Kamisato Kakeru

    Kamisato Kakeru is a character similar to Kamijou Touma, holding the mysterious power World Rejecter in his right hand which is the exact opposite of Imagine Breaker. His appearance marks the abrupt end of the Magic God subplot after he defeats most of the remaining Magic Gods.

    Originally a normal high school boy, Kakeru had World Rejecter manifest in his right hand around early December due to the wishes of the Magic Gods who were disappointed with Imagine Breaker. He used it to save many girls which made him the center of a harem, which he hated and blamed on World Rejecter twisting their hearts.

    Disgusted by this and believing the Magic Gods deliberately gave him the power, Kakeru set out to eliminate all Magic Gods. He clashed with Touma due to their differing views but acknowledged him as 'strong' for not wavering. Kakeru was eventually defeated and exiled to the 'new world' his power sends things to.

50. #50Kihara Yuiitsuselective

    Keys: Kihara Yuiitsu

    Kihara Yuiitsu is a member of the Kihara family who first appears in Baggage City as a 'negotiator'. She frequently manipulates events behind the scenes, including the Agitate Halation Project through Yakumi Hisako.

    After Kihara Noukan is incapacitated by Kamisato Kakeru, a grieving Yuiitsu places him in cold sleep and vows vengeance, aiming to go beyond being a Kihara and become 'unique'. She later steals World Rejecter from Kamisato and forces his faction to target Touma.

    Yuiitsu has great scientific knowledge which she applies to create tools like the Elements, artificial life forms that use magic. She also has notable hand-to-hand combat skills. Yuiitsu shows genuine care for her 'teachers' Noukan and Kihara Gensei.
