Ytlaya posted:I think that SIU had probably been getting some negative feedback about the last couple arcs not progressing the main plot much. I think this current arc does a good job of progressing the main plot while still introducing new characters and subplots. That's fair, and I do agree somewhat that it's time and past time that we start getting clues to Bam's past, why he was locked away, why Rachel was with him all those ages ago, etc etc etc. I'm thoroughly happy that answers are finally starting to trickle in, and I hope that it continues to give us a slightly clearer picture each chapter from here on out.

The best part is Baam's history is kind of interesting and there's clearly a lot of mystery still about it, despite generally knowing Baam's origin. It's rare big reveals for mysteries are satisfying but I'm liking it so far.

What are the chances that whatever has taken over Yuri is related to being a Jahad princess and Jahad being inactive? Seems unlikely its one of the 13 months since they were both out last chapter

Seems unlikely its one of the 13 months since they were both out last chapter I thought last chapter was just showing them while they were still "inside" the weapon, and I assumed that they (or one of them I guess) were now taking over Yuri. I can't really think of any other entity who could be responsible for possessing her through the weapons.

Jose posted:What are the chances that whatever has taken over Yuri is related to being a Jahad princess and Jahad being inactive? Seems unlikely its one of the 13 months since they were both out last chapter I'm not sure. Yuri does seem to be somewhat possessed but it seems more like the 13th month series are an amalgam of something rather than Zahard himself. Far as we can tell, Zahard is still hanging around and talking to his daughters (Maschenny talking about how Zahard was proud of Yuri for retrieving Green March, for instance), but just isn't active as a ranker doing things in the tower. Same thing with other poo poo Yuri's done. Though the idea that he's actually trying to create a super being via the princesses and princes to possess because he himself isn't strong enough could be an interesting idea, with the rings and 13 month series being the catalyst for it.

While Enne was strong enough to be ranked 7, she was the child between two 10 Families leaders, so that's an exceptional circumstance.

Zahard's entire problem might be his made deals with the Guardians. I imagine the immortality has a drawback (which could get into Bloodmadder's whole deal about not getting it at first but eventually succumbing to fearing for his life and making a worse deal).

I get somewhat confused about regular vs irregular because I thought irregulars come from outside the tower, so why would Urek Mazino want to get out of the tower to explore the world out there if he was out there and then entered? Can a resident of the tower become an irregular? What defines an irregular anyway?

A Regular is chosen to be allowed to climb the tower. An Irregular chooses to crash the tower climbing party. Most regulars and irregulars are from within the outer parts of the tower, where all the administrators and tests and stuff don't really appear. Baam is one of the few people to be from totally outside the tower.

^^^ I'm pretty sure that all of the Family Leaders + Mazino + Enryu + Phantaminum came from outside the Tower. I don't know of any Irregulars who came from inside the Tower.khy posted:I get somewhat confused about regular vs irregular because I thought irregulars come from outside the tower, so why would Urek Mazino want to get out of the tower to explore the world out there if he was out there and then entered? Irregular just means they came from outside the Tower (or maybe as the post above mentions it includes anyone who is able to climb without being chosen as a Regular, though I think all existing examples came from outside the Tower). Mazino entered the Tower but does not know how to leave again (though he wants to). It's sorta like if you wanted to see what was in a room and then noticed you were locked inside the room and wanted to get out again. Ytlaya fucked around with this message at 23:59 on Mar 28, 2017 |

Yeah, while I am sympathetic to that objection (and have wondered how Rachel got this idea myself) it only works if you also believe Baam was not actually outside the tower at any point or that he entered and was living in the outer tower before the series began/he opened the gate and met Headon/etc. Since he knew Rachel out there and all.

As a technical irregular she can bypass Jahad's immortality, so she has a lot of worth for FUG. And she's a skilled manipulator, at least. Though not nearly as skilled as she herself believes.

Wild speculation : Jahad princesses are a public group meant to create division between the 10 families by forcing them to compete against one another as a way of Jahad dodging the whole 'marry one of us' situation. What nobody knows is that there's a hidden group called Jahad Princes. Ja Wangnan and Karaka are parts of this group, signified by the rings. While the destiny of the princesses is to fight amongst themselves for power, the Princes climb the tower to gain in power to one day succeed Jahad as the king. What they don't know is that the succession is how Jahad cheats death and became immortal. His soul migrates to the new body and devours the original. Wangnan doesn't know about it, but somehow Karaka found out and the reason he joined FUG was to rebel against the destiny that his life is meant for Jahad. Wangnan eventually becomes a ranker and becomes powerful enough to succeed Jahad, but his soul's consumed and Bam must fight the king of the tower wearing his friend's face.

I wonder if we'll get more answers about enryu and the outside when Urek meets baam this arc or if he's unrelated to all the other irregulars. I'm far more interested in everything outside the tower lol Its definitely been hinted Rachel snuck into the tower when Baam opened the doors and everything thats been revealed seems to suggest she knew she couldn't get in herself but could follow him but doesn't explain why she met headon first though that doesn't particularly matter considering everything else with the tower.

Sure, there's unreliability, but I don't think there's unreliability in the fact that Arlene wanted to get out, found a way out, and beseeched some outside god. Anything in the pocket that Garam gave Baam is, at the very least, Arlene's side of the story. If she could beseech said god from within the tower then she would've never had to leave to set this chain of events up, after all. quote:Totally agree - but Arlene's ambition was also to see the stars.

If Zahard already opened the door I don't see why all of them would have to do it themselves. It also explains why Zahard is a step above everyone else -- he's the true Irregular, just like Urek or Enryu, and the 10 families can't match up because of it. Just like how Baam is this monster and Rachel, despite being apparently fairly competent and climbing the tower as well as anyone else, just isn't in the same league as Baam.

We do know Arlene wanted to see the stars, and we can infer that if Rachel really wants the same thing then her goal is roughly the same. Maybe for very different reasons, like narcissism or some other hero-syndrome, but the goal would still be the same. I don't imagine Rachel ever becoming anywhere near as strong as the other Family Heads, so I don't know how closely to compare them. Even if they're weaker than Zahard, they're still independently very strong, and all in the top 20 I believe.

There's 4 Thorn pieces and I'd be assed if, as they keep climbing the tower, that it doesn't end up 2 for Rachel and 2 for Baam, two Irregulars going about it different ways, trying to fulfill Arlene's wish. Both being and thinking they're the main characters of this prophecy and both being right -- after all, SIU did say Rachel is the other main character alongside Baam. I could be wrong, obviously, and everything could just fall into Baam's lap, but I think it's more interesting if Rachel becomes relevant both as someone Baam's chasing and as a legitimate rival to this weird prophecy. And yeah, the family heads are independantly strong, but they're the Koon and Rak and Yeon to Zahard's Baam, if you catch my drift. Powerful in their own right, and the most powerful because of all the special deals they brokered and their enormous head start, but clearly a step behind Zahard.

Jose posted:I don't think this is possible I'm not sure how to address that? A Regular is defined as someone chosen by Headon to climb the Tower within Zahard's little system of tests and administrators. An Irregular is anyone who isn't a Regular. While I was looking over some things, there have been other inconsistencies too. So I had initially wanted to make a point that Arlene may have just escaped the Inner Tower into the Outer tower, which would be relevant if you generally can't go from the Inner Tower to the Outer Tower. I thought I'd read that once you were chosen you were functionally trapped in the Inner Tower forever, but I only saw in the wiki comments that the middle area can be used to travel between them. This blog post contradicts that, though. So I guess what I'm saying is, there's some inconsistency in all of this, and I'm not going to pretend to be 100% correct.

The Middle Area is for Regulars and rankers to live in if they want, as well as travel between floors, but they can also go to the outer tower. Hoaqin demonstrated that when he manipulated two kingdoms in the outer tower and did the whole soul eating thing.

He opened the tower from outside of it, even if he was underground. That said, when he and Rachel entered the tower the doorway they went through was below them. And Rachel seemingly led him to a specific place to get him to open the door, so I think she knew it was there. Was it a trap door that goes up? I wonder if the Tower itself is just this pocket dimension or something.

Yeah, the only thing that makes me question this is how Urek Mazino talked about how the tower was small compared to everything out there or whatever. He might've been talking metaphorically or maybe, yeah, the SIU world is actually low gravity Jupiter or some poo poo.

I think the only real point of disagreement was your assertion that Rachel isn't from outside the tower - the working definition of irregular seems like a secondary issue based on that. Really she's more of a mystery than Baam at this point, since now we know (part of, someone's take on) where he came from while everything else outside the tower is still mostly an open question. There are some people, there's a god, stuff is bigger in some sense. I think that's about it.

I will never stop finding it amusing that the strongest active person in the Tower is this shirtless dude with a backwards baseball cap and a tattoo of his own name. hahaha according to the wiki: Wiki posted:It is recently revealed that Yuri is obsessed with a virtual boy simulation game introduced to her by Repellista Zahard. Apparently, she hasn't stopped playing it since because it features a character that resembles Baam. Ytlaya fucked around with this message at 22:16 on Mar 29, 2017 |

I love all forms of Yuri and I wish there was more of her, but at the same time I know that if she appeared more some of her quirks would begin to look tame. It makes me smile to think that she's Baam's first and probably most enthusiastic after Khun fan when she's, right now, so far above him it would be like a tree compared to a cloud.
