The mind transcends the body. It's also a little cold because of that. Please get it a blanket. I wish I could read your mind, I can barely read mine. "Skynet begins to learn at a geometric rate. It becomes self-aware at 2:14 a.m. Eastern time, August 29th. At 2:15, it begins rolling up characters."
"Just what do you think the moon up in the sky is? Everyone sees that big, round shiny thing and thinks there must be something round up there, right? That's just silly. The truth is much more awesome than that. You can almost never see the real Moon, and its appearance is death to humans. You can only see the Moon when it's reflected in things. And the things it reflects in, like water or glass, can all be broken, right? Since the moon you see in the sky is just being reflected in the heavens, if you tear open the heavens it's easy to break it~" -Ibuki Suika, on overkill

This one seems to be a homing freeze laser, in that it has multiple stages. If it doesn't connect, it fills your surrounding area with ice, which traps you. If it does connect, it freezes you, your surrounding area AND repeats the process every time. If it doesn't connect, it also pursues you until it does, with what looks like rose vines made of lightning that turns to ice. As its homing, it cannot be dodged, or at least, not easily. It cannot be parried since its both a direct AND environmental attack.
So its basically a Forcecage cum Black Tentacles cum Shivering Touch cum Frostfell with the PF Persistent metamagic and Chaining.
Possible counters would be to negate the effect(with fire magic or antimagic), block line of effect(using earth magic or wood to create a tangible barrier) or simply outrun it(but as the Lightning Fate learned, its as fast as lightning). However, as the effect refreshes itself, you'd need a lasting counter effect, so just plain shooting fire at it won't work, you'd need a fire with a greater duration and presumably at least as hot as the fire spell Chao used.
As for the Asuna matter, shes basically being used to Cancel the whole Magic World there. I figure shes more powerful than has been shown before, but the key thing is our guys here are extreme badasses and it wouldn't take a full cancel to free time. If the effect can be weakened, then they can free themselves.

It might be just me, but Records of ATX has confusingly-drawn fight scenes even by manga standards. So the badassery is diminished for me because I can't clearly see what is going on. Well, sometimes it isn't. DEM SHIP TO SHIP BATTLES. More epic than mecha fights, and you know how I like mecha. Anyway, I still like this series a lot because I get more insight into details of the setting they had no room to explain in the OG games. Also, hijinks. So much hijinks. Excellen never fails with that, but other characters are great too. I've read only halfway through the newest release, but here's what I have to say so far:

Dantalian no Shoka 3 - two small stories instead of one long one "Yes" counter: +3 lol at the ending of the first part - "Yeah, we have godlike intelligence, but we're too aware of the risks to do anything evil and too lazy to do anything good. You can pretty much just ignore us." How many more deaths are they going to cover up?

You've got the order the wrong way around. They were so effective they killed off their primary food supply.
