**All kinds of supernatural forces exist. Ghosts and stuff. Vampires, werewolves...you can make the argument that they're actually magical girls, or that the Akashic Realm brought them to life. [http://ask.fm/Deculture/answer/125265512884]

Questions from Threads

Thread 12

  • Do we have a magic scan ability, or does it only work against witches? [1]
    • Chiaki can sense Witches. But being a Vindicare, she can't track or sense Magical Girls too effectively. You need a Culexus for that. [2]
  • Could we have scanned lori's fake friend and knew she was fake? [3]
    • Not to give everything away, but as a Callidus, Midori is pretty good at her job. Callidus focus on undetectable subterfuge and espionage. There was a way for you to detect if she was fake, but you would have scanned the wrong person. [4]

Questions from Ask.fm

  • Does Chiaki still have wings in her untransformed state?
    • Nope, they go away. [5]
  • What all supernatural forces exist in MGNQ? Could a non-canon writeup mess around with them?
    • All kinds of supernatural forces exist. Ghosts and stuff. Vampires, werewolves...you can make the argument that they're actually magical girls, or that the Akashic Realm brought them to life. [6]
  • How effective is training while transformed versus training while not transformed?
    • Some girls can train their non-transformed selves, but others really can't function in a combat-capable capacity without transformation. Those who can has the privilege of being able to 'stack' their normie training with the benefits of transformation, although it's generally recommended that you train in both states. The first to increase your natural strength and endurance, the second to be able to control your Magical Girl abilities better. [7]
  • So some girls don't get any benefit from exercising when they're not transformed?
    • More like they can't exercise at all, or it would take too long for their normal bodies to get adapted to exercising (i.e. Chiaki). [8]
  • So exercising in meguca form isn't as effective as exercising in civilian form?
    • It's mostly equal, but it really depends on what the Magical Girl wants to do, and what she wants to build on, and how her physical fitness is at the time. Sayaka trains as hard as she can in both states. [9]
