Sword guy changed by unsheathing his hand, right? Maybe she can get multiple powers if she keeps replacing body parts.

People are definitely scared of water. Though it does raise the question whether the water demon, drowning demon and suffocation demon are distinct entities.

The only videos I like with Super Eyepatch Wolf are the one's he has done with Woolie (formerly of Super Best Friends). Those videos consist of them learning to hate one another as they playthrough Legend of the Mystical Ninja and another where everyone learns to hate him as he aggressively pushes Hunter x Hunter. I feel like there is a common thread.

Lurking Haro posted:Do you remember how Santa asked for orphans? I guess Tolka's master was one, too. She even called him Grandpa. Pretty sure the woman has been the real Santa the whole time. The way the panels show Tolka and Granpa as being the same makes it clear that they were both "raised" by her. It also makes more sense as generally women tend to be the real badasses in this manga.

The conversation at the beginning, particularly the "lower creatures of the earth" part, really gives weight to Makima being associated with a demon of divinity or god. Outside chance maybe the human demon.

Hidingo Kojimba posted:If the government can afford to hire Yoshida to be his handler, you'd hope they could afford an actual social worker to make sure he gets some help claiming social security, and make sure he has enough life skills not to burn his house down... but given the kind of manga this is, there probably are no social workers. Yoshida never said he's working for the government. He said it's not an evil organization like some manga, so it could be the government but we don't know. Come to think of it, I wonder Chainsaw ate a piece of death too, which is why people seem a little blasé about murderous demons killing tons of people.

There's lots of stuff that's unanswered or ambiguous. Gun Devil was alive, then actually dead then alive again. Reze was his partner which implies he was hanging out in the Soviet Union, but he takes phone calls from the US President. We never definitively found out who was behind Sawatari though I think like a lot of things you can pretty much fill in the blank with Makima did it and it works.

Just checked. US had 20 percent, Soviets had 28 percent, China had 11 percent, other countries had 4 percent and 37 percent held by devils. Pretty much all the political information comes from Makima, so who knows.

Katana man becoming Katana man is what makes it likely to me that Makima was behind it. We've seen no one else with knowledge of hybrids, but at the end it turned out she had a collection of them. I think she was threatening the Yakuza because that is what she does. She wants to erase criminals even if she's the one who set them up to be criminals. The series as a whole eschews the usual mythologizing of the Yakuza to the point of showing outright disdain for everyone a part of it. It would make sense for Makima to embody that somewhat.

If the chains are how she uses someone else's powers then she might've used the chains on Tendo and Kurose in the Katana Man arc and they were fine for awhile afterwards.

A lot of people get her characterization wrong. Everyone likes to portray her as adorable feral girl, but a teenage girl's naked corpse in the woods has very specific connotations and they aren't adorable. She just took advantage of that because she's kind of a wimp.

And probably correct about the number of dead students as well. I guess this might mark the end of the school arc since the school was somewhat destroyed, though I wouldn't be surprised if they continued to go to school in the ruins either.

Is this also the first appearance of cellphones in the series? I suppose if it weren't for Yoshida this could be taking place ten years after part one for all we know. Elfface posted:It occurs to me that if Denji were to successfully reveal his identity, he'd get a massive powerup. Pochita was weakened, possibly not Denji. It's unclear if fear has an effect on hybrids, given that the bow, spear and sword hybrid are as strong as they are. Though that might just be a consequence of those weapons being more prominent post gun devil attack. LostRook fucked around with this message at 20:24 on Nov 8, 2022 |

usenet celeb 1992 posted:Kobeni, Kishibe and Quanxi all have exceptional, even supernatural, physical abilities that have never been explicitly revealed to be related to devil contracts. In fact the only thing we know about them with respect to deviltry is that Quanxi is a hybrid like Chainsaw/Katana, which may (or may not) raise questions about the other two. Quanxi definitely gets hers from being a hybrid, in the same way Denji is able to hold and throw a car or fight leech semi-transformed. Certain aspects transfer through even without transforming, and someone who is at least 60 years old probably has the ability to hone it as much as possible For Kobeni, my only guess is Namahage Devil because of her use of Denba knives and parent issues, though that might be a bit too specific for the series.
