** The various hells that Touma is subjected to. Being hated by everyone else, to the point that your own parents denounce you on international television. Having your entire identity stolen by someone else, with none of your friends recognising you. Being buried alive and slowly decomposing, while remaining conscious. Being adrift in space, helpless and alone. Or simply getting crushed by an overwhelming force, with no hope of resisting.

** The "Omega World" deserves a paragraph all to itself. An entirely perfect world, where everyone is happy, in defiance of all logic and reason. Everyone except Touma himself, who isn't remembered by anyone. Othinus claims that this world will only last if Touma kills himself. And yet he can't bring himself to fight against it - and who would?

* New Testament Volume 11: Seria finds a Strobila implanted in Misaki - a long, thin device reaching from her neck all the way to her heart. It could have been influencing her mind... and they have no idea how long it's been in her.
* New Testament Volume 12: Pretty much everything about St Germain. Their carbon-manipulation magic lets them open up holes in people in the way of their attacks, and close them afterwards with no ill effects. It can also create plant-animal hybrid monsters that each contain smaller monsters like a Matryoshka doll. {{spoiler|And its true nature is a collective identity, which assimilates new members by infecting them with a virus. Most of the members in the volume are espers, meaning that they're injured every time they're forced to use magic.}}
* New Testament Volume 13: World Rejector, another counterpart to Imagine Breaker. It sends anyone with conflicting desires to their ideal world. It's all the more disturbing because they're in a state of complete bliss as they're being banished. Even {{spoiler|Magic Gods}} aren't immune.
* New Testament Volume 14: The two strange monsters which drive the conflict of the volume, both of whom look like human-sized [[Eldritch Abomination|Eldritch Abominations]]. {{spoiler|Sample Shoggoth is a parasite which has infected Patricia Birdway, looking like an amorphous black mass. It has replaced her fat and taken over its functions to ensure that it can't be removed without killing her. It frequently writhes around under her skin, and lashes out defensively if people try to remove it. The other one is Leivinia Birdway, using dangerous magic in an attempt to cure her sister of the parasite. She's growing an additional organ inside her chest, putting pressure on her other organs and in all likelihood killing her when it reaches full size. Leivinia plans on feeding the organ to her sister to remove the parasite and replace the lost fat - but since Patricia has no knowledge of magic, she only sees it as something grotesque that will eventually kill Leivinia. Leivinia has also covered herself in an animal skin dress, resembling a rotten red carpet, to support the organ's growth.}}
* New Testament Volume 15: Yuiitsu has essentially turned herself into a [[Humanoid Abomination]], becoming one of the series' most deadly villains. {{spoiler|She managed to disguise herself as Asuka using the FIVE_OVER Outsider, completely fooling Touma and the entire Kamisato Faction. She altered the St Germain virus and gained control over it, rather than being subsumed by the collective identity. As a result, she now knows how to use magic. She even made use of Sample Shoggoth, giving her a [[Healing Factor]] that lets her survive a shot from the Anti-Art Attachment. By combining the parasite with the St Germain virus, she's able to ''steal World Rejector''. Finally, she pretends that severing the hand containing World Rejector allows her to summon the banished Magic Gods (actually fakes made from Sample Shoggoth). This is [[Nightmare Fuel]] in-universe, to anyone who knows the power of a Magic God and/or knows what happens when Imagine Breaker is severed.}}
