The Index FAYE levels – The chronicles of the Majutsu episode 8


Break into the world of the 100% Faye, Touma. A warning: It’s impossible.

You thought I have dropped this again, didn’t you? The truth is that I was simply trying to find the best way to blog this series, and I think I found it. Since the world of To Aru Majutsu no Index is about levels, it is also time to rank the characters every single episode. Sure, this idea isn’t new around, but it is appropriate just for an anime like this.

We will be using the FAYE % gauge to evaluate the greatness of each character in this episode.

Touma

Overall grade:

1. Did not make fun of Index during phone call = -3% Faye
2. Owned Stiyl Magnus by calling him a jealous pig = 5% Faye
3. Wanted to save the megane girl = 1% Faye
4. Was unable to do it and waited for the pain to arrive = -2% Faye
5. Lost to the Green haired Alchemist, and could not even fight back = -10% Faye
6. Lost his memory after the Alchemist attack, but sheer GAR power restored it = 10% Faye
6. Punched Stiyl Magnus to make him remember what happened too = 8% Faye

Total = 9% Faye (Low level powers of FAYE)

Index

1. DFC fanservice = 15% Faye
2. Did absolutely nothing for 18 minutes of anime = -10% Faye
3. Got knocked out for the countless time in this series = -10% Faye

Total = -5% Faye (Very weak FAYE within, might have hope to turn into FAYE after 1000 years)

Gregorian Choir

1. So generic FAKE choir = -20% Faye
2. They actually turn into light spheres = 1% Faye

Total = -19% Faye (Is too unFAYE to be ranked)

Megane Girl

1. Glasses are moe = 5% Faye
2. Does not even flinch when she’s cut all over = 10% Faye
3. Is such a minor character but is able to be cooler than most of the other characters = 5% Faye

Total = 20% Faye (The power of FAYE is in this one)

Himegami Ais

1. Extremely moe with her cold humor = 15% Faye
2. Miko clothing always rocks = 10% Faye
3. Uses a tazer as a mahou shoujo weapon = 5% Faye
4. Totally saved Touma’s ass = 5% Faye
5. Ranted on some silly backstory about vampires that Impz did not care = -5% Faye

Total = 35% Faye (Extremely powerful character. Has half the ability of FAYE)

Stiyl Magnus

1. Keeps getting owned in this episode. He must like being raped = -30% Faye

Total = -30% Faye (Is too unFAYE to be ranked)

Aureolus

1. Powers include stabbing himself in the neck = 5% Faye
2. Is so stereotypically evil that it is boring = -10% Faye
3. Wiped out the party almost too easily = 5%
4. Has power over Miko hottie = 10%

Total = 10% Faye (Low level powers of FAYE)

The Real Gregorian Choir

1. Looked all cool but completely useless = -20% Faye

Total = -19% Faye (Is too unFAYE to be ranked)

    I protest, Aisa deserve 50% furthermore three of those Gregorian Choir students were from Idolmaster thus they deserve 10% for starpower.

    What is faye :| ?

  3. Jubbz November 25th, 2008 5:41 pm

    I would like to know what Faye is too… >_>

    Cuz if you wanna see how much they measure up to Cowboy Bebop’s Faye Valentine, then thats weird. :p

  4. Impz November 25th, 2008 7:33 pm

    @SoSo: Definitely, I forgot to factor the Idolmaster in since I do not watch it. However, since the FAYE levels are already measured, there is little chance to change until the next episode.

    @Maguno: FAYE is an entity so powerful that it is used to measure the value of characters, speech and everyday life.

    @Jubbz: It’s not Faye Valentine. Faye Valentine is 15% Faye. She has the ability of becoming the True Faye eventually in 1000 years, but she has no chance to improve herself since Cowboy Bebop ended.

    There seems to be a 1% discrepancy in The Real Gregorian Choir’s Faye level.

    @SoSo/Karin lover: “furthermore three of those Gregorian Choir students were from Idolmaster”

    What? Pics or it never happened…

    Well, if this is what you came up with after much resolution, I must say that you failed. Or, in your words, -20% FAYE. This is not funny at all. Not knowing what FAYE means kills the joke. Please go back to your usual style of blogging.

    Oh you fag. You actually used the Faye levels huh. fine.

    @sorrow-kun: I fail at Maths.

    @Son: Hah hah, sorry to be indulgent in an inside joke against a certain person. This is meant to be a joke that most will not understand except three specific people, and I actually promise to write it. Anyway, the whole point is that Faye should not be known. If you know what it is, the joke will be completely spoiled ^^

    @Kurogane: Aye aye.

    @Faye: lolz.

    I looked at Faye thought Faye from Questionable Content webcomic. Would make a certain deal of sense in certain cases, but would be totally weird in others… In QC she’s a tsundere/bitchy character. :X

    Nice ranking system though =w=

  13. Omisyth November 27th, 2008 11:05 am

    I’m sorry, I think Aureolus’ PIMP suit requires at least 10% FAYE.

  14. Jubbz November 28th, 2008 5:40 pm

    Touma’s FAYE level shoulda been 18% if their levels are starting at zero if we’re technically speaking.

    just throwing that out there… :p

  15. k. December 1st, 2008 11:32 am

    I shall grant the Miko an extra 10% for awesomeness in spite of being voiced by Mamiko Noto (…I have certain issues). And I do agree with Omisyth, pimp suits need recognition.
