tweet my meat posted:She saw something strangling her and they deduced it was a clone that did it. The clone's face is hidden and they never outright state that the clone couldn't be an animal in a suit that is similar in shape to a human. Goreinu was also, rather suspiciously, nowhere to be found while she was being killed. Goreinu's gorillas are emission, so normal people shouldn't be able to see them. Though this is a bit of a strange case since it's a woman who has a temporary nen power observing through a cockroach.

Between her mother taking most of her guards away for her brother, her comments to her guards, and her thoughts about how all the younger princes and queens have no choice but to feel fear because they don't have the capacity to be king. I am more than certain that she had written herself off. RatHat posted:Goreinu's gorillas are emission, so normal people shouldn't be able to see them.

How can Queen Oito see the Nen beast if she herself doesn't know nen. The dolphin makes some sense since it's effectively in her brain.

I am more than certain that she had written herself off. No she said she was fine and thought to herself she was more tired then normal. Then stated she pitied her mother and little brother for not being capable of becoming King. She was only talking about Sevanti and Marayam.

Silver2195 posted:I read it as a condescending pity for Maryam for not having the capacity to be king. I should check the Viz translation of that line, I guess. I read it as defeatism. She is definitely calm in these chapters so she isn't like her mother and brother in the whole "unfit to be king because of fear" category. Since she has probably the least amount of screen time of the princes alongside her brother so we don't really know if she's like Kacho who is acting like she has a chance. So a lot of my reading is based on archetypes and association. She's got a demure appearance, a passive attitude, and a mother that is clearly favoring one sibling over the other. If I had to guess I would say this isn't the first time Momoze has been dropped in favor of her younger brother and she's used to being put aside. Not only that but she's not unaware that the younger princes have no real chance as she understands their fear and is at least aware that "dropping out" can mean bad things. Lastly is the fact that she is still willing to send away her remaining guards leaving herself alone and she is not aware of her beast. So the question comes down to: Do you think she is calm because she thinks she has a shot? I think she's aware she's on limited time and just wants her brother to feel safe.

I don't read it like that. I think she thought she was fit to be King and felt sorry for her mother and brother. But was simply too young to really understand anything about what was going on.

# ? Aug 18, 2017 03:35 |

Yea, she clearly views them as unfit because they're so scared for Maryam's safety. Her mother and brother are "overcome with fear", while she is confident in her ability to win.

Though this is a bit of a strange case since it's a woman who has a temporary nen power observing through a cockroach. Even so, the bodyguard disguise that Goreinu put on his gorilla when he sent it to strangle her was not made of nen and could be observed clearly, despite the wearer being a nen construct. Everything fits, the answer is clear.

I'm also going with Momoze's corpse being a clone or Kortopi-style copy (RIP Kortopi).

I thought Sale~Sale would be the first to go, and I still think he's up next. Now he's also very different from Momoze, to balance out the losers roster. Do you think Momoze's nen beast asking politely for your attention ties into her being ignored in favor of her brother?

I want to know what happens to the bodyguards when they fail and the prince dies, which is the reason why I think Woble will be next.

they say she only got offed because she exhausted herself enough that her nen beast wasnt able to defend her, but how did her attacker know that she was undefended? i bet it was one of her guards who could observe that her nen beast went away
