I kinda want this girl to be Justice. I don’t think she is because Justice’s powers have always used a white colour scheme and this girls colour palate is dark. It’d be funny though.

Cell phones exist, we saw one in the Aquarium bit. But if I recall correctly it was considered unusual/a status symbol, as it would be in the 90s.

JoeGlassJAw posted:i've always wondered how the erasure of things like the holocaust would affect the calendar but it seems to be genuinely set in the late 90s. This is a good point. Since this is a diverged timeline, there is no canon timeline for media. You could have a really goofy domino effect that made metal develop a decade early and that particular genre is just offset by ten years. And CSM has an exceptionally wonderful domino collection, so this explanation is aligned with the usual authorial voice.

Wildcard option: the devil was the Hallucination Frog devil, and the entire karaoke sequence is going to 'Imagination bubble' out as Denji foams at the mouth surrounded by paramedics pointing at his ripcord.

I have no idea why you all think Yoshida is some bumbling incompetent that can’t tie his own shoes. So far the only thing he particularly failed at was controlling Denji, a task that even the physical manifestation of the concept of control couldn’t even pull off. And assuming this girl is part of his plan, he might even actually be able to do that.

chiasaur11 posted:He liked the fight, but he had a brief flash of disappointment on seeing the girl was trying to kill him too. Like, yeah. Figures. Just figures. Yeah that's probably it exactly but I'm not sure if I'd say Denji has completely given up on the sex yet, as unlikely as that is to happen.

The last couple of chapters have been such a ride with twists and turns in its punchline: 1. Denji's depressed with normal life. He is so depressed that a prospect of date does not cheer him up. 2. Denji gets happy once his date propositions herself. 3. Denji finds this behavior suspicious. He goes with it anyway. 4. Denji is now content with "normal" life. 5. "Normal" life becomes abnormal once a row of random strangers try to attack Denji at karaoke. Did Yoshida set this up intentionally, or did he get tricked? Are the strangers in league with the girl, or does the girl have a devil power to have men fight on her command?

I wonder if this is related to Chainsaw Man at all, or Denji just happened to get hooked up with a girl who ran a murder cult. Boy would Yoshida's face be red!

She's just like "beating randos with a bat is much better than karaoke!" Meanwhile Yoshida gets an after action report: "Oh good they went to a 'karaoke' room huh? Well good the kid finally gets his rocks of- wait 20 men attacked him with bats? Denji killed half of them? THE GIRL JOINED IN AND THEY WENT ON A RAMPAGE?! ... I think there may have been less damage if Denji had just transformed..."

Saw a “theory” that she’s a Bizarro. Aaa says people only have sex because they have nothing better to do, new girl literally says “Wanna have sex I’ve got nothing better to do”, Twin tails in front vs back, Asa’s cringe love poem vs Maximum the Hormone.

I don't hate that theory. I do think her hair style is weirdly distinct for some rando chick...which means she definitely isn't just some rando

I'm sorry, but she stopped being just some rando chick the moment she decided to sing Maximum the Hormone song in karaoke to provide a soundtrack for Denji beating up her accomplices/pawns/fodder with a baseball bat.
