User blog comment:(Spoiler Warning) Dniv/Mikoto is now a badass?/@comment-11612775-20130726194322

That is Daihasei Festival Arc, right? The same time as Ridovia Lorenzetti, the long-forgotten Magic side character, tried to use that no-bloodshed Magic Item, Croce di Pietro (one of my favourite Magic Items introduced, especially that epic illustration of it with Ridovia in the second novel of that arc)? Right? That will most likely become last year snow since already in Academy City Invasion Arc, Mikoto was pretty normal (well, for a Level 5, but still). Here's 2 chances:

1) Mikoto is halfway Level 6, but her friends, with their momories restored try and successfully stop her halfway;                                                                                                                  2) Gensei either escapes, gets arrested, or dies trying to escape (or even is killed by Mikoto, should she lose control over her senses (not her ability) after everything he did);

Mikoto using her surviving clones (their network, more precisely) to increase her ability like the Level Upper users did was speculated for quite a while, I am not very surprised/shocked (only because I read said theories and speculated myself quite a few times) by this development).

Kamachi might also simply want to swiftly explain why Mikoto mustn't use the Misaka network, without leaving any opportunity for some to say that the author missed a plot point. Also a very good chance to finally deliver karma for Gensei, as mentioned. After all, he was too quite over the failure of the Level 6 Shift. Could be a Xanatos Gambit, considering that now the remaining Sisters alive seem to still be of some use for him?
