Hi, all! I'm new to the whole series, but it made me super excited. I came up with some theories, but there's a chance they or something similiar were discussed before.

1, Espers are thelemite magicians. The Book of the Law is written by Aleister, and it's the central text of Thelema. The wikipedia article of Thelema says "Do what thou wilt shall be the whole of the Law" means "Thelemites, should seek out and follow their own true path in life, known as their True Will.  rather than their egotistic desires. " I think "your own true path" basically means your own Personal Reality. The reason espers can't normally use traditional magic, is because it's from a previous aeon.

2, AIM is the thelemic equivalent of mana. The espers, who are from the Aeon of Horus produce AIM, istead of mana, which is the same "material" from the Aeon of Osiris. The Imagine Breaker blocks mana flow and that's why it works on AIM too.

3, There will be a storyline where Touma will lose the IB (possibly by Aleister) and he have to get it back. We would finally see his esper power (which is constantly blocked by IB). Would be hilarious if his esper power is something like Extreme Luck.

4, The dragon thingy is separate from IB and was sealed inside his arm because he has the IB and it can keep it in check. The only two times we've seen it, he lost his right arm.

These are my theories. I'm new to the series, so most of it could be garbage, but I thought I would share them.
