Can cards miss timing to activate?

I am playing Edison.

I am curious if cards can be activated in a chain if their 'trigger' was not the last thing that happened, but still part of the chain window.

For example:

I special summon 'Arcana Force 0 - The Fool'. Upon the summon he activates his mandatory on summon effect. Can I still activate Inferno Reckless Summon, as a monster with less than 1500 atk was special summoned, even though the inferno would be cl2. Could I do it even after my opponent chains to the fool?


I know for example that mirror force does not have to be cl1, it just needs to be in the chain of the attack declaration. However Solemn Judgment has to be directly in response, and there cannot be a chain link inbetween.
