Out of interest, would that still hold up if Coroner gets buffed by the whole breadth of Samael's spells?

Depends on the specific effect, but unless I'm forgetting something in Sam's spell spread, that is currently a yes.
Scary thought; Coroner + Core Connection/Lesser God.

Actually, she'd be very effective in combat. Would probably put billions of elven ssoldiers out a job (everyone who can't do magic, go home and learn).
It's just she's the herald of a second and third industrial revolution to the UL as a whole, where Earth has only barely managed the first.
(Second is when she sets up shop and starts churningout upgrade packages for extant factories. Third when she starts churning out new factories.)
And with that realization I'd revise my assessment upwards.
Coroner would be an OCP to the Eternal War.
Because of her massive Industrial Capacity.

Yeah, i think if Coroner was present on Hope, there would be good odds of it not falling since the UD strategy for this battle was drown them in bodies of mooks.
She would be a terror on the tactical and and a godsend logistical level, and a utter pain the strategical one since there are being that can hard counter her, which mean the UD would need to deploy them each time Coroner deploy, and Coroner can retreat and redeploy at tremendous speed, forcing the UD in the role of a scooby-doo villain.

Sidestepping the versus argument for the moment, I was rereading again, and noticed something.
Anna is familiar with real maple syrup. Anna's Arcology- such as it was- had all pre-impact architecture. Anna's backstory flashbacks all suggest a pre- or immediately post-impact childhood.
The only instructor mentioned as being pre-impact is in her 90s.
Anna has been "16" for a very, very long time.
No wonder there's no birth records for her.
edit: later on people corrected me on this, but I'm leaving it here so folks can tell what we were talking about

Nope.
She was born 3 years prior to the first incursion.
The reason her town had Pre-impact tech was because the rest of the world/UN had not been in a position to connect with North America since the Impact.
NA prior to the Antagonist's arrival, was filled with successor states fighting each other for resources. The rest of the world didn't want to deal with that kind of irradiated Mad Max shitshow (recall that NA was nuked by Russia's ICBM system also). Anna's town was isolated enough to not be caught up in it, but also didn't get any of the developing tech either.
That isolation in part is probably why the locals hated the refugees so much: They had been isolated for so long, they didn't trust anyone from outside the town.

Interesting theory, but it doesn't hold up on two counts:
1) Impact was 58 years ago.
2) First Contact with the Antagonists was 13 years ago.
So the absolute oldest Anna could be, since she was ~8-9 when she started fighting, is 22.
Her town had pre-impact architecture because it was a pre-impact town that had survived in near-complete isolation from the rest of humanity for half a century.

...Let me check something quick.I... That subject has come up frequently, but at no point do I recall myself or Crys saying the words you just said.

That's your post, Lost. It's in informationals. Now, did you tell what I think you told?
Well, as Magical Girl Limitless Horizon from the post tells us:
Limitless Horizon said:
So comparing the two side by side:
1) Attempts to make infinite energy generators have been made in CWMGQ, which is roughly analogous to my claim that perpetual motion devices/perpetual energy generators can be built. On one hand, Limitless Horizon only spoke about experiments, but on the other hand her description of flip-flopping when brought together implies that there was actual partial success to observe this behavior.
2) I claimed that bringing together Magic, Physics and Soul is really finicky, and I think it also checks out - when Magic and Physics as systems are made to interact, they fall in line with one of those, but no one has a clue what exactly governs the choice.
3) My claim about one and the same generator switching on and off making it work and not work is not quite correct - Limitless Horizon spoke about how bringing Magic and Physics together the same way, nine different times, could flip-flop each time.
I don't think I said anything that was blatantly contrary to what Limitless Horizon said.

Blatantly contrary? No. Making claims and using examples that aren't actually what was said? Yes....Let me check something quick.

Point 3 is an example you basically pulled out of thin air. I can see why you would extrapolate to that now that you've explained it, but that's not what was actually said.
The claim made in point 1 is just flat wrong. Attempts have been made at infinite energy generators. There have been no successes, ever. So saying "they can be made but are really finicky" is incorrect. It would be accurate if you threw a "theoretically" in there, but as it stands it's just not a factual statement.

Oh definitely. Just remember that an infinite energy generator needs to be perfectly balanced, and flopping in any direction is inherently a failure state.

Do we just have timelines not lining up, then? If this is the case, pre-impact adults shouldn't be especially worthy of note, and the instructor in her 90s would have had to be in late 30s/early 40s when she got the core- notable, I suppose, but for a different reason.

I think you're just overthinking it personally. But honestly I have no idea where you're going with this.
Why would people in their forties getting cores be notable after Impact? It would probably be notable now (the UN probably tests everyone they can find for core compatibility since they have more than twice as many cores as Valkyries right now), but there were no cores before Impact.
What do you mean about pre-impact adults being especially worthy of note?

...I thought the important part was making it not follow the primary paradigm of Physics, but falling into the direction of Magic (with its spontaneous creation of energy in environment) was the desired result. What part of Physics is so important that it needs to be specifically preserved when the apparent goal is for Thermodynamics is to be averted? Or what part of Magic is specifically undesirable (is it the spontaneous disappearance of energy once the spell is cast, or something else)?

Regarding the talking about the crossover of the settings of Battle Action Harem High School side character quest and Crystalwatcher's Magical Girl Quest, has everyone forgot about the feat in Crystalwatcher's Magical Girl Quest of raising the dead back to life. And not just recently dead, but dead as far as several years ago?
Imagine lolnope-ing the results of the Battle of Sydney with one mass resurrection of the dead.
