The Processor Suit is really cool, Aneri and Hamazura have a great dynamic, and the humour in this volume is to a higher standard than most volumes. Even the perverted Aleister stuff is great with the knowledge that the real life Aleister Crowley did in fact write smut. Aiwass vs Coronzon was a very interesting fight, and Aiwass made some amazing contributions to the volume as a whole. Mina Mathers was also great.
This and NT18 felt like the entire series had been leading up to this arc.

Life is like a labyrinth... At first, it seems like moving forward will yield some result, but dungeon settings will never allow it, causing you to deviate from many of your trajectories and intercede with other travelers and enemies around time. That said, just like a dungeon, the journey of three heroes intersects and creates a resonance of their own, as even with different personalities, they still have the same goal. Protect your world!
As with setting up the final arch in the previous book, preparations were put in without the public noticing, like preparing students for a cultural festival, an analogy that goes well here as it will be just as fun.
It's practically a big game of cat and mouse, but not knowing who plays the respective roles, which just proves how disastrous the situation is, tending to lack balance and no chess owners.
Perhaps because of this, some happenings here and there seem quite out of place and inexplicable, but it is certainly the kind of thing the author will explain later on.
Now, how about we talk a little about settings? Soon, we will also end up talking about writing and narrative...
The metaphors here are good and there is really a complexity of wordplay to make the reader have fun or understand what the characters are going through, which creates a very cohesive writing in conjunction with the narrative.
Following the three protagonists' adventures was a lot of fun, with Kamijou being harassed and constantly suffering from dirty jokes (sad to see how a dirty old man stole almost all of his first times), Hamazura taking the serious and central part of the volume while Accelerator intervenes in the paths of the other heroes and problems.
Thus, something that really takes care of this volume is the conversation between two superior beings and their plans for the world.... There are some small bumps and poems in the writing that allow you to see something more among the beautiful literary universe created.
Still talking about the setup, the relationship between demons and angels, plus the addition of self-effort has been a good move for everything so far, without a shadow of a doubt. It's a shame that following the mystery here wasn't as fun or they were always loaded with impactful moments and insane plot twists, but the end result was still very pleasant, even with some tedious parts, by adding new things to the script and things said a lot little explored in the past
About these events, as one would expect from Toaru's information flow, here it has its certain prominence and small details end up being transformed into a grand mass of science-related plot twists, which embodies the essence of the work
Regarding their connectivity, here only the crazy feeling of dispersion can guarantee the continuation of the mystery. With that, not everything remains clear, but as the mysteries are solved, closer to the confrontation something seems to stand out
I really appreciate how toaru manages to come up with a clever script, putting all the pieces of the puzzle in the reader's hand, with that, he need only delicately put each piece together, but it turns out to be such a complex game that usually the mystery is only revealed when the author wants, because even with all the parts of the assembler, the reader cannot unveil the beautiful tactics of Kamachii.
And as a consequence, when these plot twists reach their maximum, the real confrontation takes place. This is where the fun game seems to come closest to checkmate... Well, at least it should be that way, but it was nothing but an illusion for a mind-blowing new game of chess, and now, someone is going to have to break certain illusions.
Finally, this was a volume that will start the great climax of a new war, even more absurd than in your previous book. If OT19 was like a bow and arrow flames that aimed to alert war to an enemy country, here it would be like a nuclear warhead being thrown and destroying everything and everyone, thus starting the real world war. The goal is the same, but the warmth each one emits can really impress the reader.
