I believe that I previously ran similar numbers (thought they were eaten by the crash), she won't quite qualify as a Time Abyss, but in terms of hours of existence, she's going to be about Ayla's age when she graduates. =)

4 spirits + 1 physical = 5 Jades During the day.
5 Jades * 16 waking hours a day = 80 Hours
5 spirit Jades * 8 sleeping hours = 40 Hours
40 + 80 = 120 hours a day if she pushed it to the max.
so 7.5 waking days (16 hour cycles) for one real day, if she pushed it.

Well, apart from physical-body Jade needing to sleep, you seem spot-on.
4 spirits + 1 physical (note that this may change in the future as her power grows). Physical body needs 8 hrs sleep, so have 24*4 + 16 possible hours of study, total of 112 hrs per day, or 112/16 = 7 times as much possible study time as normal.
She could completely 'goof off' with her physical body and still rack up 6 times the normal possible study time, with that 6 times study having uninterruptable concentration, tireless attention span and near-perfect recall.
Have Fun!

There are some other calls on her time.
Working at her student job, (which typically takes 2 at a time).
Doing chores for herself and Tenyo.
Hanging out with Team Wondercute.
Hanging out with Team Kimba.
Other money-making schemes, with Ayla or in the workshops.
I suspect she'd also be very reluctant to split off too many selves as that would limit her options if she was subsequently attacked, or something else unexpected cropped up.
So, still a lot of available study time, but not quite that much.

Totally right.
She will never press her powers that hard all the time, this is just thinking of what she can do.
As she gets more powerful and can make more for the J team then she will likely continually use more.
For now though she has ether constant or near constant use of:
Jade, Jinn, Jann, and Jet.
Jet may or may not diverge so much from Jade they are permanently two separate characters so I would safely count it as an average of 3 days experience when Jade is up, and 4 to 5 when she's sleeping because that is when she does the cleaning and studying.
-----Yes I'm picky, but only in the pursuit of curious tidbits. -----

Sure she'll be the age of the others when she graduates, because she is not warping time, she is just being 3+ people at any given time so she has the chance to experience a LOT more than most, Almost all the benefits of time travel without the paradox or aging.
|
Ah, I was more comparing that Jade will be about 40-ish (subjective time) years old, while Ayla gives the impression of being a 40-ish business magnate, who's skipped most of that childhood thing he's heard about (which TK are trying to catch him up on a little).

I'm afraid that you guys seem to have overlooked something about Jades night-time Studying. Her spirit selves need recharging every two to three hours. If Jade is asleep then she cannot recharge her spirit selves so they only have as much time as one charge in which to study while she sleeps.
Jade's first action on waking is to charge up Jinn, that's recorded in one of the stories. So, while Jade still manages a significant increase in her study hours it is not as much as you guys are speculating. Sorry.
John.
