Akuma can split battleships in half and Chun-Li can fight him. SF martial artists are crazy.

If Johnny Cage can beat up not one but TWO Superman knockoffs in MK1, Yor can fight the Street Fighter guys

Yor is obviously holding back which is why she is in SF and not Mortal Kombat

Everyone is missing the big picture here, put Yor is Street Fighter 6. Also Yuri busting out Ryu's moves earlier makes more sense now.

Arist posted:I mean, there's definitely something weird going on given how she treats Damian The thing is, most of the time she does seem to act like she loves him, and the biggest example of her issues is after the kidnapping, when Anya reads her mind at first she's all worried and loving, but the moment Damian mentions his dad it's where she starts to go crazy with the nasty thoughts. Basically it feels like she's projecting her hatred for Desmond into Damian which ofc is hosed up, but normally she loves him. If Anya had been at the fair I bet we'd have seen her mind do the same when he was brought up.

I'm glad Yor's boss was there to give history facts because for a few panels there I was intensely confused about how old Desmond is to have started a war that began when Loid was a child.

If the war ended roughly 20 years ago, Desmond could have been a mid 30s PM.

I like letting Yor's work friends get a little growth. Because usually they're just like one conglomerate that commentates (and/or interferes with) her life. Because we know a good bit about Loid's fellow WISE members, so it's always nice to give both of them equal focus.

That was a very nice chapter, fleshing out a lot of people we'd only seen on the sidelines, adding some extra dimensions to key players. It makes you wonder, did something happen to Donovan Desmond to make him as he is now? Was he a warmer, more humane, more caring person, only to be altered by some external force? It's a question that has come up before, but every incident like this reinforces the idea.

I've had a pet theory regarding Desmond that (speculation) he's not actually Donovan Desmond, but a body double who took the name and face of the real deal, who died in the war. I think it would make him a nice foil to Loid, both spies and masters of disguise, both forced to play the part of father to a fake family. But while Loid grows to genuinely love and care for his family, "Donovan" truly cares nothing for his. I dunno, just something I think would be neat.

Since we've never seen Donovan and his wife at the same time, I think that proves that they are both the same person.

Desmond may not have started the last war, but Operation Strix is about securing the fact that Desmond is not trying to start the next war. Millie's feelings are not entirely unwarranted.TwoPair posted:I like letting Yor's work friends get a little growth.

Because we know a good bit about Loid's fellow WISE members, so it's always nice to give both of them equal focus. I would really like to know the Director's backstory. From Loid's side, we got an inkling about his boss's backstory; I imagine Yor's boss probably has an intriguing story of his own.

I know this series is mostly a cute slice of life series but the world-building and stuff is absolutely incredible. You can tell the mangaka has put in a ton of work for what the setting is and how everything fits together.

Oh God. So it's mentioned that there are rumors that Melinda is part of a satanic cult. And her son is named Damien. DONOVAN IS LITERALLY SATAN.

new chapter https://mangaplus.shueisha.co.jp/viewer/1019533 I am glad we are going the route everyone expected, the adopted grandparents are great and gives anya an invaluable tool to get better at her studies, and learning to use her own brain rather than trying to pilfer from others', which is also very important

I feel like there’s going to be another shoe dropping with the grandparents. Maybe the son they moved back into the city is going to become involved in the spy work or something.

Grandpa being a university man with a history of neurological studies, with enough cognition problems that what he did during those years is just gone from his memory sets off a lot of warning bells for me.
