Quotes

• Kazakiri:"Why did this all this happen?It's all my fault.Why am I only one unharmed?If I can't be with everyone, why I was born?I'm just a monster that can only exist thanks to all the espers.Even though she called me a friend...Even though I thought I'd become a little more human...I'm sick of its all!Please punch me and end it all!Why...Why are you smilling?"
• Touma:"Because I'm relieved.I don't why I have this power in my right hand.But I'll cut this hand off beforw I use it to make any of my friends disappear.You protected everyone.You did you best to protect everyone.Isn't that the human you wanted to be?Be proud, look forward.You continued to fight and saved people you didn't even know.There's no reason to be disappointed."
• Touma:"You'r right...Actually,I think it's a miracle that I've gotten this far.I've been too naive.I've let everyone else deal with the other world.But I can't do that anymore.I have to take my own steps into the new world."
