I'd completely forgotten about Himeno, I wonder if Denji had too.  Ethiser posted:I dare someone to say Makima is bad after this chapter. Look at all those good boys who love her.

Makima likes dogs because they are unflinchingly loyal.

Also, the contrast here is kind of hilarious. Chapter 75: Makima is the Control Devil, a monster so terrible that 300 million years of life is a minor sacrifice in comparison to the necessity of killing her. Chapter 80: Makima goes home to give her dogs belly scritches while making goofy dog voices to pretend like they're talking.

LostRook posted:Don't jinx it. Kobeni only agreeing to show up for bonus content is one of the smartest things anyone in this manga has ever done. As for this chapter, thinking about it, seems like Makima both wanted and expected Denji to ask for sex. Which is kind of skeevy! But it's also interesting since it seems like she wanted him to ask for it. I think what Makima wants is an equal. She's trying to help Denji develop as a person, which is why she's happy when he does things like ditch her for Power, and why he doesn't get in trouble for trying to run away with Reze. She likes her dogs because they like her without being forced into it, but they're still, well, dogs. You can't talk about movies with dogs, you can't do romance, you're pretty limited. Denji could offer something different. Denji's human. So when he tries to run away from all that responsibility due to his pain... Makima's probably not happy.

So I guess when Future Devil showed Aki that Denji killed Power it was later, which is when he'll go full chainsaw and open the door. If even the Gun devil couldn't trigger that it's gotta be something big. Maybe Makima forces him to kill Power?

Hmmm, Denji feels down and suddenly Makima shows up to cheer him up again. Sounds familiar. Such an innocent maiden, always coming to Denji's aid.

Anyone else see how Makima is drawn in super sharp focus with her eyes as perfect concentric circles whenever she is manupalative? And how her eyes sorta resemble a hypnosis spiral?

Oh no Makima has good taste in dogs, and she named them all with a good convention. She's unhateable to me now. That's way to powerful.

If even the Gun devil couldn't trigger that it's gotta be something big. Maybe Makima forces him to kill Power? Either that or the Future Devil was lying. After all, Future Devil showing him that specific vision was the catalyst that got Aki killed. Theme of ignorance really strong these past chapters. Kishibe choosing to not take off his blindfold, Aki getting too close to Makima's secrets and dying for it, Denji trying pretend that Gun-Aki wasn't actually Aki (and failing), and now Denji choosing to become another one of Makima's pawns. Makima doesn't seem to like his answer though Also, its cool that when you form a contract with a devil, it seems that you're only signing your physical body away and the human soul or whatever is not involved. Makima being able to manipulate corpses is such an overpowered ability. It makes sense that Aki was the corpse that the Gun Devil chose to jump into; I'm sure there was almost nothing left of the other bodies due to the price of the contract for such a massive initial attack. Aki's contract with the Future Devil had no immediate consequences so he was pretty much untouched except for a bullet hole.

The official translation is up now. This panel stuck out to me. It's like Denji reflexively tried to activate his chainsaw arm to attack Makima.

Didn't the US president explicitly say in one of the previous chapters that Makima is the control devil? That would explain why her eyes are the same as all the other devils we see, and her manipulating everybody. It also kinda explains the dogs. Dogs are pretty eager to please and thus easy to control.

Or that they don't need to be controlled. Elfgames noted that Makima's dogs were awfully rowdy, which seems odd if she's obsessed with running every minute detail. Makima seems to like things (movies, her dogs, Denji) where she can know that she'll be safe and accomplish her general objectives without forcing them. Which, of course, makes all the "EVERYTHING that happens is Makima's manipulations! Everything!" seem even more of a stretch.

I'm pretty sure a lot of the fear of Makima comes from the warranted idea that she can do just about anything she wants to. Also, it seems like the idea that is being teased itt of her seeking out things she either can't or doesn't have to command kind of implies she resents her own powers and that's a weird guess for the very manifestation of Fear of Control.

I mean, it's not like it's unprecedented. Angel's pretty down on his powers, after all. But I don't think it goes to the point of resentment. Makima seems comfortable with using her powers. It's just that she likes it more when she doesn't have to.

It doesn't make any sense for him to be reflexively trying to activate his chainsaw, and he is very obviously emotionally distraught and crying but does't want her to see it (so he's covering his face). Also, isn't there only a chainsaw cord thing in his chest?
