Huh, I guess the Angel Devil is a guy?

I'm very worried about the new girl. :ohdear: I keep thinking of 2 possible outcomes:
1: She's killed by sink guy.
2: Denji saves her from sink guy, but Makima will off her instead. She wants Denji and having someone else hold his heart is probably not good for her plans.

Also lol at Denji's reading ability.

Guessing sink guy will kidnap her but get killed instead because she's actually a devil or something.

Speaking seriously now, I'll be amazed if there's an actual answer as to who Nariyuki ends up with; it's not something that's often done with harem series. The World God Only Knows gave a definite answer, and I appreciated that.

So it seems the point of this flashback in Jujutsu was explain what the main plot is supposed to be. It would have been less of an issue if they'd at least made it clear from the start that it was a flashback idk what the editor was doing as surely thats their job

Yeah that was not a great way to explain everything. Smash cut to a huge flashback that takes a while to get to the point where you're like "ahhh okay this is explaining why everything is happening and answering/presenting questions about the rest of the cast." But it takes like 2 months to get to that point.

I had to really sit down and try and remember what we left in order to even start this flashback and I think it was MC meeting a former classmate who lost weight and then this?

Oof, that is some gross cleaning, and also it's been so long since I've read the scans that I didn't notice that they translate Sensei like a dang robot. She and her sister have a cute habit of using academic/technical phrases instead of simpler words. It doesn't work in English, or at least not the way the scans are doing it, so making them talk extra formally is much more natural.

7 deadly sins :geno:

It ties in nicely with the Escanor Gaiden.
Assault Mode Escanor, looks impressive and (if page 12 is to be believed) is apparently about to rip out of his pants.
It's all looks though as he jumped first and everyone caught up. :shrug:

The thing that bothers me though is how boring this final fight is. The most exciting thing about it, is finding out if Escanor is going to die. I don't expect Nakaba to do it though.
There's so little sense of Urgency or Threat it's amazing.
I'm reminded of the battle between Madara and Naruto/Sasuke where ever more layers of bullshit were added to everyone and yet it at least felt like there was an actual big threat. (up until Kaguya at least) You were left wondering how on earth were they going to outbullshit Madara.
Not here though. I'm just kind of waiting for the Demon King to lay down or for Zeldris to break free and there's little doubt in my mind that after Zeldris breaks free the demon kings lingering presence will probably menace some more.

I'd say that round 1 versus the Demon King was better as well. There it was a team effort and 2 fights happening at the same time.

The sins are so strong at this point that Escanor risking everything like this feels... unnecessary? Like they weren't really in such a desperate situation that it required him to pull out all the stops.
The Demon King is getting clowned left and right and Diane already managed to cut of his infinite supply so...

Looking professional when committing genocide is essential. This is mostly achieved by using a beret.

Olive drab colour ensures the genocider will remain hidden from his prey until it's too late for them to do anything.



Their idea of looking for a night school is literally just going to an empty school at night :allears:

Just like Fire Punch was a prank pulled on Jump to get the Star Wars joke in there, Chainsawman has been the same thing to make a Sharknado reference.

the sudden transition from slightly demented school hijinks into more punchy shonen fare was really awkward but it seems to be finding its stride

it really sells its animal-people conceit, which helps the credibility of things like everyone's blase attitude towards sudden acts of hideous violence

e: also between this, kemonozume and devilman crybaby i think i have a thing for series that conflate affection and appetite and i kind of don't want to examine that too closely

I feel like this new girl might make Denji weaker as a devil hunter by actually exposing him to what normal life and people are like (and making him less crazy as a result). Well, assuming she's not about to get killed anyways.
