I'm planning some chnages in my life that might give me more free time/require off time, some I'm considering picking up a hobby.
Basically "What gives Psychic Duelists their powers"
What causes Magic. Is it like an underlying force of nature similar to Gravity and the standard Speed of Light?
And I guess it's been bugging me... I want to know more about "The Light of Destruction". I've let it be buried for a decade now, but it's something from my past I want to learn about.
I'm good at Dueling, at teaching others how to Duel but I feel I know so little about everything surronding Dueling's more esoteric and otherworldly nature.

That was my original area of study.

... Disappointingly, it was difficult to really get access to materials or funding for something like that, especially before knowledge of them became more widespread. It's why I switched to researching the effects of monsters and other supernatural entities on the world's history.
It was close enough.

Well with the Spirit-Arcadia Institute being what it is, there might be a better chance to investigate that.
I get the feeling that monsters, spirits and magic and Psychic Duelists are connected. Perhaps Psychic Duelists are humans with monster blood that while it might not surface as monster related nature, it does grant them the monster-like power to create real mass and damage?
It's just a speculative hypothesis. But...

One of the more interesting points however is that one of the earliest recorded signs of awareness for Psychic Duelists, is actually in France. But the idea of "summoning monsters that inflict damage to the opponent" can tie all the way back to the study on Egypt that inspired the game originally.
... ... I still have some of my original papers that I wrote on the subject. I don't suppose you'd want to read them at all.

And so would Ms. Tersaki below. I think we'd both be interested.

... I'll gather them up and bring them to SAI, then.

What's your name, I don't think we've met before.

Yamada Mamoru. You took part in my AI test before.

That's great!
If you need help, I have lots of reference materials for at least Duel Spirit based studies and theories in my office at SAI.
... And some at my apartment too.
And if you ever want a study buddy, I'd love to help out!
.... Haaa, sorry. I got excited.

I'm the only researcher SAI has right now and sharing my findings and theories with others tends to be... a challenge.
I think I tend to go into too much detail for most people.

It looks like we have someone with a lot of his own reference materials too, so that's a really good starting point.

And for me, getting to share and listen to ideas with people who are like-minded is going to be something refreshing for me too!
