New page so


Seems like Bayon is a pretty big deal in their society and is in charge of a bunch of farms but couldn't keep his appetite under control and, all according to their plan, underestimated these kids are just another batch of helpless food-to-be.

Seriously. It's depressing seeing all these great series converted into "we'll get the traditional + 3D blend right this time guys, honest" abominations.

The One True Oden

Christ, how many kids confirmed dead this chapter? Three? I guess that's not a bad trade for someone like Bayon, but still.

This series is so drat good, I really hope the anime can match the tone. It would be easy to get wrong.

most studios are probably fine, so long as it doesn't come on the heels of an intensive production and they have enough time to devote just to neverland.

I had totally forgotten about Ray and ??? so it was a really nice reveal having them appear, plus we now have some top tier fighters on our team not just Emma and Lucas. gently caress Nouma :whitewater:

Every chapter i feel is a chance for Emma to go absolutely bonkers, Berserk-style. It's truly a credit to her that she hasn't yet.

The series is really good in general about how it measures out escalation, which is good because if it were too fast it would get silly and if it were too slow it would get tedious.

He's great but Emma needs her first kill so I hope he gets utterly destroyed.

Anyway, another good chapter. I liked the previous chapters too but now we're in the same cool and interesting situation but with pre-established characters I like a lot and care about. So I am super into this right now.

I don't watch anime based on manga I've read much anymore, but I will watch the poo poo out of an anime of this. The series is still great but hot drat is the escape arc good and I can't wait to experience it again.

The strength and abilities of the demons is really hard to judge. We know they’re ridiculously fast and strong but uh, this is something else.

It feels like a bit of a narrative misstep to make Lewis that fast. I suppose Emma could still plausibly find a way to win if his legs are a lot slower than his arms.

He doesn't strike me as being that much faster than Bayon, though. Bayon got caught underestimating the kids and paid for it, Lewis just seems like he literally never lets his guard down no matter what. I don't see him dying here either way. I think the obvious option is Ray and T. Man show up and at some point their presence leads to Lewis taking one in the leg or something and retreating.

Demons can vary a lot in terms of intelligence and appearance, so they probably vary in speed and strength as well. Plus demons probably don't reproduce very much.

Yeah I'm guessing it's the former.
You have pieces of poo poo weaklings like Luce, then you have demons like Lewis.
Besides because there simply was an agreement I'm guessing people were fighting the demons to a standstill.

They may get stronger the more they eat and longer they live, Lewis and Bayon were there when the agreement was signed, they're old as hell.
I'd have to assume that Sonju, the organic, free-range human wanting demon is at least that old or more.

Her confidence, or insanity, is the best. She -doesn't- want to kill him, but she also says that if he accepts her deal, he gets to live, which is just such an awesome and bonkers thing to say to someone like Leuvis. I love it.

So I've binged this and it's all great (I'm kind of happy I only just got on though because it means I didn't have to wait through the Escape or to find out who Minerva was), but can I just say that I still think my favorite part is the reveal that Ray spent years and years planning to set himself on loving fire.

That's a pretty good "gently caress You" to the person who was raising you as cattle though. I'm glad Ray lived but the way they faked the suicide was a little too manipulative given how it played out with Emma stopping him. It'll be a hell of a loving episode ending though for anime-onlys when it airs though.
