I find it adorable that she keeps her mini hats/horn thingies even for gym class.

What are they anyway?

We don't know for certain. There're theories, like Lizard's and gnome's, but nothing official.

We do know there was a time when she didn't have them, when she had a pair of hair buns there instead, but what happened to get from one to the other... no idea.

Well I was extrapolating a little, but it isn't a theory to say they're related to her mind reading. We know she underwent experiments and came out the other side able to read minds, and the only unusual thing about her physically are those cones attached to her head that never ever come off and make sparking sounds when she reads minds.

It isn't a theory to say "they are the machine that lets her reads minds." That's just the text of the presented story.

There was a chapter where Ania wasn't wearing the horn things and still had hair cones on either side. So she may have skull protrusions of some sort. Or maybe it's stylistic. Or cute.

Yeah, going with cute.

I assumed they are there to help her control her powers, like Athena's headphones in Ace Attorney. :shrug:

Sidenote: Viz announced they'd be releasing the physical volumes starting Summer 2020.

Also, the main story's on pause for another extra chapter come Oct 20th.

What does this mean exactly? Does that mean we won't get a chapter in 2 weeks or will we get some kind of side chapter?

The actual explanation for Anya's cone thingies is that her design is recycled from the author's previous oneshot lol.

Also I remember a lot of people speculating Anya was going to be terrifying when she grows up. They vastly underestimated how long it would take to get there.
