Arc naming section
This is the section where we name arcs. Post the Light Novel Volume(s) and we will discuss on what the name of the arc should be.-TheGreatEye 09:12, October 18, 2010 (UTC)

Volume 4 Arc naming
In this volume we have Angel Fall in effect, changing everybody's appearances and forcing Michael into the Earth. Many people such as myself regard this volume as the Angel Fall Arc. Is this the appropriate name for the arc in question? As we all know the name of the spell is called Angel Fall, and with it Michael (with Gabriel's powers). I say we should have this as the official name of this arc in this wiki. Any opinions regarding this?--TheGreatEye 09:12, October 18, 2010 (UTC)


 * +1 for Angel Fall arc --Fukitscold 12:16, October 18, 2010 (UTC)
 * Angel Fall. But IMO adding also the name of the character who usually ends being the core of the event also should be added.200.62.146.249 17:50, October 19, 2010 (UTC)

Volume 5 Arc naming
August 31, Touma has awoken to find out that he has yet to finish his summer homework and races to finish it before school the next day. However, as is his usual misfortune, several bizarre incidents occur that prevent him from doing this, such as Mikoto forcing him into a fake date to get rid of a suitor who is actually a magician. And later, another magician attempts to kidnap Index. Meanwhile, Accelerator meets another clone called Last Order, who has a virus that would order all the clones in the world to attack.

I called this arc the Three Stories Arc, because it seems appropriate. Having three short stories in one novel, occuring on the same day. Anybody have an opinion on this?


 * +1 for Three Stories arc --Fukitscold 12:16, October 18, 2010 (UTC)
 * I'm fine with this, this can be also called August 31th Arc because the events happens the same day.200.62.146.249 17:50, October 19, 2010 (UTC)

Volume 6 Arc naming
September 1st, the start of a new class semester, however, Index meets a mysterious being from the Imaginary Number Sector, Kazakiri Hyouka and at the same time as this, Sherry Cromwell attacks important figures in Academy City such as Touma, Index and Hyouka in order to incite war between the magic and science side.

Now, the arc focuses of Kazakiri Hyouka, so I'd like to name it as Kazakiri Hyouka arc, however, I've seen people refer to it as the Imaginary Number Sector arc, even thoug the sector is not relevant in the arc at all (though I might be wrong as I have yet to read Light Novel Volume 6). I think it's appropriate, though I would like other opinions in this matter---TheGreatEye 09:12, October 18, 2010 (UTC)


 * +1 for Kazakiri Hyouka arc --Fukitscold 12:16, October 18, 2010 (UTC)
 * Kazakiri Hyouka and the Imaginary District Number Arc 200.62.146.249 17:50, October 19, 2010 (UTC)

Volume 7 Arc naming
The Book of the Law has gone missing, as well as a possible translator of it, Orsola Aquinas. Amakusa Catholics are blamed as the culprits, and the Roman Catholic Church and the Anglican Church join forces to retrieve Orsola as well as the book.

Well I called this arc, Orsola Aquinas Rescue arc, as it was the entire point of the novels. The Book of the Law was never shown, and was in fact still inside the Vatican Library when the novel started. I am aware that some people call this as The Book of the Law arc, even though the book was not the focal point of this arc.

So any opinions towards this? I'd like to stick to Orsola Aquinas rescue arc though.---TheGreatEye 09:12, October 18, 2010 (UTC)


 * +1 for Orsola Aquinas rescue arc --Fukitscold 12:16, October 18, 2010 (UTC)
 * Orsola Aquinas and the Book of Law incident 200.62.146.249 17:50, October 19, 2010 (UTC)

Volume 8 Arc naming
Shirai Kuroko is embroiled in a conspiracy regarding her beloved oneesama and a Remnant of the destroyed Tree Diagram being stolen by Musujime Awaki to be smuggled to an outside organization. Meanwhile, the clones seek the aid of Touma and Last Order asks Accelerator for his involvement.

I'm naming this arc as Remnant of the Tree Diagram arc, though some of you might prefer Remnant of Tree Diagram. There are also people who prefer this arc to be named after Musujime Awaki.

So what name should we give this arc then?---TheGreatEye 09:12, October 18, 2010 (UTC)


 * Remnant arc (Remnant of Tree Diagram arc is too long/sounds bad IMO) --Fukitscold 12:16, October 18, 2010 (UTC)
 * Duly noted, and I agree that it is kind of awkward sounding. Gotta wait for the other users to contribute.--- TheGreatEye 04:41, October 19, 2010 (UTC)
 * Musujime Awaki and the Remnant of Tree Diagram

Volume 9-10 Arc naming
Daihaseisai has started in Academy City, however, Touma, Motoharu and Stiyl try to stop a magician who conspire against Academy City.

I thing Daihaseisai Arc is an apt name don't you think? Putting Festival at the end of Daihaseisai would just seem rendundant as if I remember correctly, it is called Festival of the Star or something? Thoughts on this naming? TheGreatEye 05:28, October 19, 2010 (UTC)


 * Oriana Thomson and the Daihaiseisai Arc200.62.146.249 17:50, October 19, 2010 (UTC)

Volume 11 Arc naming
Touma and Index goes to Italy, where they discover a plot against Academy City, regarding boats. (I did not read it yet).

Anyway, there are two possible names I could think of for this arc: La Regina del Mare Adriatico Arc as it is name of the flagship featured in the novel or Queen of the Adriatic Sea Arc, same thing, though in English. I rather keep the english name since this is an english wiki and I'd like to keept the arc names in english as standard for all arc naming purposes. -TheGreatEye 05:28, October 19, 2010 (UTC)


 * La Regina del Mare Adriatico Arc. Because now we are using the italian version of Ursula, Orsola, I think the same should be applied with the arc.200.62.146.249 17:50, October 19, 2010 (UTC)

Volume 12-13 Arc naming
October 1st, Touma tries to fulfill his promise with Mikoto while Accelerator starts his new life outside of the hospital. Little do they know, their paths will cross again as a new threat to Academy City arrives to take out Touma, meanwhile Accelerator faces-off against a demon from his past.

This is an interesting arc because currently I have no name for this. Any thoughts on how to name this arc, maybe should name it the same way as Academy City named what happened October the 1st, it had incident in the title or something.TheGreatEye 05:28, October 19, 2010 (UTC)


 * The Way of Light and Darkness.<--- Took from one of the vol. 13 chapters.


 * This arc starts with a slice of life theme but then is stopped when both, Kihara and Vento starts attacking their respectives targets, the novels foccused more on them rather than game punishment, Necessarius' girls, Anihilatus' girls, all of them send to the oblivion. The core of the arc is foccused on Touma starting his conflict against God's Right Seat (Light) and Accelerator fighting against the never ending Darkness from Academy City.200.62.146.249 17:50, October 19, 2010 (UTC)
