Seems fairly likely that she's a living weapon, like the Right Arm Devils. My personal guess is that she's a living Lighthouse. But it hasn't been revealed yet because it's most likely a huge plot point.

If the break starts next week I will be really sad. But I just can't imagine him finishing the arc before going into surgery. I'm guessing he has carpal tunnel? Apparently recovery time for that is 6-12 weeks...

Her being a Living Weapon explains why Madorako is interested financially into the Archimedes and the tournament for the potential to sell her to customers. As a Lighthouse, she is connected into the Internet (or whatever it is in the Tower) and capable of communicating with many people, and is possibly some AI who wishes to be human.

I think by 'finishing this chapter', I think he means finishing the current arc, at least, that's what I hope...

Well, it seems like her true strength is gathering and using information. She knew that Baam was still alive, knew what people had to do during a test to win, etc. So, I don't think she's just connected to the Tower's communication system, but is connected to or a part of the whole system itself (or is able to hack into the whole system), because she knew non-communication related things like positions (possibly from items/item holders held by the person), and things that obviously shouldn't be 'public information'. I think that because she's so good at gathering and using information, she is able to rapidly learn techniques/abilities, just by observing them, and that the goal of the tournament is to let her observe as many techniques as possible as a 'test', and make her stronger. And, it's clear that Baam is a lot stronger than any E-rank regular. No debating that part... That would give her the exact same ability as Baam, which is kind of lame. I really doubt it.

Given the mention of gambling, I bet the goal is for her to eventually gather and analyze such an insane amount of data to be able to predict shortly into the future.

Rereading some chapters last night i had some questions on some things.
Position Test (Vol. 1 Chapter 30ish): What chapter did Rak hit the target within 4 days? I remember seeing the comic of him doing it but that was way long time ago. The first time he attempts (and misses) is part 1 of the Position test which is like chapter 28. When they do the Joint Test (Hide and Seek) 5ish chapters after, they already announced Rak and Akryung were excused because they hit the targets. I've reread each chapter and can't seem to find the picture of it.
One Shot Test: At the end of the "event" Verdi and Cassano each shoot one person with a dark bullet, I can't remember who they are and if they are important. Thanks

So Androssi received her ticket for catching the Traveler, not for shooting the bonbon?

Actually The Traveler and Emily has an important connection and both play a huge role in the Workshop arc. Siu mentioned this in the afterwords.
Emily is obviously some sort of AI/Human Hybrid.

Androssi in a bikini \(^____________^)/
I think I can die in peace now

(The Company chapter just released so I just got caught up) the way I read it is she shot the guy, but they mention not having enough tickets left, which leads me to believe she shot him after the total number of tickets was filled. They granted her a bonus ticket to get her on the ship as a reward for catching the traveler (although with the business guy revealed this chapter I think it's also because Androssi has to be a huge draw for the viewing crowd).

That actually makes a lot of sense cool ^_^ didnt think of it like that

Are koon, Wangnan, and Rak on the ship as well (I mean, they probably are)? If I remember correctly, we weren't shown how they got on the ship or anything close to explaining this.

I remember in the chapter before they're on the ship, right when everyone starts to get sent up, theres the shadow of rak, and than 3 shots sounds (koon and wangnan in the scene, rak is a shadow) So they were probably sent up with the bullets they collected

I have a feeling that Madoraco wants Emile for himself, which is why he's sponsoring the Workshop Battle. And also, I hope that there are more items available for players to be able to obtain other than just Emile, Blood Tamara, and Heavenly Mirror.
