Exactly. And I noticed that since this arc started Power is basically screaming constantly.

He's a freelance devil hunter who Makima hired for this job. We've seen him in this arc before, but this is the first time he's done something notable.

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.

That's how I read it, staying in disguise.

Also I keep reading "Halloween!" in a Nightmare Before Christmas chorus voice.

the devil hunters after denji are all assembling

the guy with the devil harem is just settling into the region, the surviving shapeshifter is trying to take cover with the family of the guy he murdered/copied and is having second thoughts after power splattered his buddy, and the german "santa claus" devil hunter is creating an army of literal meat puppets in preparation for taking on denji

Man the surviving brother being confronted with the life of the guy they killed. That was some gut wrenching stuff right there.

And I love Quanxi just hanging out with her girlfriends. Also that poor guy. He keeps getting his car wrecked. First when Denji was fighting the bat devil. Now this.

I'm usually a big fan of CSM's pacing but the last two chapters could use a bit more breathing on the designs so we can familiarize.

Also I kind of agree that Power was a bit annoying, I like her bit, but if people just let her do stupid poo poo without saying "That was stupid poo poo" it loses its appeal. CSM is good for feeling like the whole coasting on tropes thing just gets a character killed instead.

the only people who let her do stupid poo poo are denji, who is her partner in crime/dumbness and what's-her-name, who is a complete pushover that power walks all over.

I don't remember if this has been mentioned so far but can there be multiple devils or fiends of the same type or are they all unique? Wondering since the one fiend with Quanxi resembled Power and wanted blood.

that useless dick Kon referred to his only successful meal as "a leech devil" and not "the leech devil" so it seems likely

You can have multiple guys contracted to the same devil. I would think that it's possible to have multiple fiends as well.

Man, Power is not going to take it well when someone shows up with the same fashion sense.
