I've been reading some of the recent episodes of Gakuen Alice, and Mikan had
her memories of the past two years (since she stared at the school) wiped.
When she seems Natsume, however, she ends up remembering him. Are there any
explanations about how it works or why it fails? I didn't see any, but I might
have missed them.

How does the memory wipe work in Gakuen Alice?


In this manga they want to make people understand that love overcomes all.
Especially love of the sort they have. Also, she had given him an Alice Stone
in which magic (which also indicates memories of that person). If I'm not
mistaken, she touches this stone when they meet and regains her memories. But
why she would remember Natsume's name could also be explained with the amount
of strong memories. Strong memories (love overcomes all) tend to be more often
remembered. I think you've got your answer right there. :) This is not
explained in the manga, it is only my own reflections.

Mikan seems to remember Natsume because of the alice stone . (Chapter About
Creating Alice Stone) , When Natsume give the Alice stone to Mikan , it was
nullify and each fragments came back to her . (sorry for my bad english) one
of those fragments was About the One she loves . At first it was fuzzy to
clear those memories that step by step occuring into her mind when Natsume
give that alice stone everything becomes clear .
