So is that like the real noisemaster

I'm so confused

It would make sense that what we saw so far was his robotic body double or something. This explains why it's so tiny.

Could that be a second Disaster Master? If you look at these disaster stone pins there's one that sort of looks like a musical rest next to noise master's, and there are enough masters that there should be one kingdom that gets two, which I believe gigi has mentioned on her tumblr. Edit: Here's the tumblr post where she mentions that two of the DMs are probably hanging out together

Spoiler text is stuff from the cucumber store and gigi's tumblr.

This actually works really well. Going by the symbols, the Melody Kingdom is fairly obviously the one with two Disaster Masters. Still, this dude has 2 eyes. I don't know if it's actually confirmed everywhere but I thought all of the Disaster Masters shared the trait of having just one eye.

I'm thinking it's more likely that the Crystal Kingdom is the one with two DMs. Its entire theme is that it's two kingdoms in one.

No, Gigi's been repeatedly, on both twitter and tumblr, saying that that's not true. The fact that Splashmaster and Noisemaster each have one eye is coincidence.

That'd be my guess. It probably gets pretty old living through the monomyth over and over again.

I'm guessing it's a reference to how Double-Knight has been implied to be Actually Not That Bad from, like, a while now? This strip is just as foreboding as the good ol' shifty eyed dog in The Simpsons.

"Hey, Nagito, what'cha
thinkin' about?"

"Oh, y'know. Murder stuff."
Saturday and Brambleby seems to be from the flower kingdom (based on their ear design). So baseless assumption here… Would Saturday be somehow related to royalty or be a princess from the Flower kingdom? It kind of explains why she seems to have a butler from the Flower kingdom tagging along with her, too.

That makes a lot of sense. It'd also mean Saturday's real name is a plant name rather than a food name, which makes me sad, because Sundae is perfect.

At any rate, it's pretty likely that when we visit the Flower Kingdom is when we'll be learning what Saturday's deal is.

Her being the last princess's signature they need would be perfect and it makes so much sense it hurts.

It is? I didn't think we knew much of anything about the Crystal Kingdom.

Apr 26, 2010

I was assuming everyone is familiar with the supplementary information about the kingdoms in the first CQ book. It's been discussed in the thread before.

But yeah the Crystal Kingdom is an island split in two. The west is ruled by Queen Sapphire and the east is ruled by King Ruby.

The melody kingdom's duality didn't really end up playing that much of a role in this chapter, and it's not like the two disaster masters would have been in two different locations, like they could be in the Crystal Kingdom. Of course we'll find out very soon if this large fellow is another DM, but I really doubt it.

I've got the book, but it's been a year (?) since I've read it.

Well, looks like we've got two kingdoms that are split in two. What does it all mean?

Hair's the right color for strawberry topping. She might be from the Donut Kingdom after all...

Edit: I took a look for the Flower Kingdom lead too, I can't seem to find any flowers explicitly named after "Saturday," but there is a "Saturn Peach".

I'm really digging the different art-styles in this comic. Noisemaster is all neon and crazy, and mutemaster is apparently somber and monochrome (assuming that gray-out effect is going to be his "theme"). I'm thinking we're in for some major artistic whiplash either in this chapter or the next.

Kind of weird that Mutemaster would be buds with Noisemaster, though.

They're both inversions of Melody. Raw noise is the opposite of a beautifully composed melody--but so is dead silence.

Maybe? The box seems too small, even though it's pretty big. Granted, I guess I'm comparing it to the way he towers over Nautilus in the most recent page, and Nautilus is shorter than Piano, but still, it seems like he'd have to be packed in there really tight to me. But hey, he's only been "onscreen" for 2 pages now, what do I know?
