Well I'll come out and say it: Can we just get this fight over with? Why drag this damp squib of a 'climax' out further? It's far, far too late to try and make Cerise look dangerous, she couldn't hurt a fly with an airstrike.

Wait... even with all the power Mel has now (or should have), she didn't think it was enough to deal with Cerise? Even with the boost Cerise gave herself in the previous strip, it's hard to imagine that it'd be enough to close the gap between them; especially with Mel having the wand. :-\

Interesting tidbit about the school and how it amplifies the natural abilities of females. Though it still makes me wonder if it's something anyone can do, or whether only certain students have the ability and to what extent? Which also makes me wonder if there are any guidelines and restrictions about when it's allowed, since I doubt the faculty would simply let the students jack into the school willy-nilly.

#-o A little late to be practicing that, Mel...

How does Cerise know all of this info? Do they teach a "History of Artemis Academy" course too?
For those curious: my avatar is an artistic rendering of a spaceship I drew for a primitive (by today's standards) multiplayer online game called XPilot. (More about both on my website.)

Bzzz.

She's not practicing, just doing the same spell Cerise did.

But yeah, i still don't think the boost is enough to defeat ying/yang Mel. I'm also ready for this fight to end.

Probably from here, while she was searching through Faith's consciousness, 'cuz the student council president would be the most likely to have that kind of information. :-B

Pointless arguing is one of the three pillars upon which the Internet is built. The other two are of course cat pictures and porn.

Jesus..... can we get over it?

This is becoming a bad equivalent of tug-a-war

Now I am stronger...no I am....no I am....no I am


Just seriously now there will be AT LEAST two more pages tonconfirm Cerise is stronger and/or her understanding of rhe spell was flawed and then another one for Mel to get on top eithet by herself or with help making her new form pretty much pointless because all it did was give her a new outfit


If MC is getting shelved this is SERIOUSLY not the way people would want to remember it

Can we just get this fight finished and over with?
The entire battle has been nothing but the characters pulling out one trump card after another and monologuing about their power. It's been almost a year IRL since it started, and for that matter, there has been very little fighting in the, well, fight. This starts to feel like the fight against Frieza in Dragon Ball Z, except with less combat involved.

Now, we will likely have another month of Cerise monologuing over her unstopable powers before Mel pulls some new trick out of the bag.
Just end it, already. We get that Cerice is supposed to be a super-powerful tactical genius. Now just get the fight wrapped up.
Violence is the last refuge of the incompetent

Wow, didn't expect such an overwhelming reaction, but yeah, the upper hand changing constantly from page to page is tiring. Rather than asking for a quick finish, though, I'd rather like some real fight pages, like the ones we got in the "two words" chapter. It was quick and dynamic, and had actual fighting, not some "ha ha, I'm too strong for you" "NO, I AM THE STRONGEST NOW!" at each update. It reads like a Bleach fight.

Something's definitely wrong with your keyboard, man. @-)

I think Melissa did it to show it is not that great of a secret and anyone who observed Faith and Tiffany's fight would know the spell. It is more a strike against Cerise's overly inflated ego than anything else. Cerise flicked her aside in the last panel, but I think that is more for the sake of comedy than an indication of power. It is no different than when Cerise winced at the return of Callie even though she was no where near powerful enough to hurt her.

Not really. The first time Mel tried it, she botched it because she couldn't remember the proper incantation.

I wasn't saying Cerise had closed the gap. I meant, I didn't see why Mel thought it was necessary to boost her power again, when it should already be through the roof between fusing + the wand.

Power hasn't made Cerise immune to pain. Tiffany was able to hurt her wihen she punched her and Rain nearly succeeded in killing her by stabbing her in the back with a regular sword. So odds are, Callie could've hurt her too - otherwise, Cerise wouldn't have been worried.
