Neddy Seagoon posted:That hard truth is this is not a Marvel Superhero throwdown. These are literal gods about to have an argument and anyone who doesn't have a pretty jewel stuffed in their forehead at the moment may as well be ants underfoot. Yeah and with a 50 page fight scene beginning, I have a feeling a lot of the characters who went to Rayuba aren't leaving it. We may be entering Game of Throne(s) territory here with respect to cast member longevity (up to and including some of the heroine's friends because I'm not sure she's even 1 Goku yet).

She was .01 Goku in chapter 2, I think, so she's probably up to .1 Goku now and that's still not enough of a furious dumbass for this fight yet

They'll be team-building in hell because I think Jagganoth is going to kill all six of them on this little island (unless Maya gets to Incubus first)

Gog-Agog is like Kenny, seeing her get horribly killed in every appearance is wonderful.

Exactly how Gog works and just what she thinks as a big mass of worms is still a bit of a mystery to us, but Jaggs is a big red evil Batman, he has a plan for how to kill each of them.

Mottom and Mammon have spent the last 2000 years forgetting how to fight someone that can fight back.

It's also possible to interpret "reach heaven through violence" as a warning that the path of violence will get you killed

Solomon David's plan was pretty much just "there's six of us, I'll punch him until we think of something"

Reminded of Maya's question to Allison: What do you think about death? I think she's going to get to ask that again very soon, and get an answer this time.

Killing a character doesn't remove them from this story.

Now, where are they going... Throne, or LA? Also it's certainly no accident that the party (other than Allison) consists of two humans, two demons, and two angels.

Captain Oblivious posted:That is not demonstrated in the text at all. Jagganoth, by all indications, simply pulled this because his armaments are ready. There is nothing to suggest that Allison is a motivating factor for him. Incubus, at least, seems to think the timetable has been moved up: Though since everyone in the story is either a liar or an unreliable source, Inky's estimation of the plan may have been flawed from the start. And I don't think that makes Allison responsible for what's happened here either way, this battle was going to start sooner or later.

Neddy Seagoon posted:Nah, I see it more as like Bane watching the kid sing in The Dark Knight Rises. He's gonna attack anyway, but no sense being impolite when you can still make your own grand entrance after they've wrapped up the first act. Maybe he just likes a good fight. There was even a remote chance of it leaving him with five demiurges instead of six.

Clearly, he arrived exactly when he was going to arrive, which is how Jadis knew to get there a few seconds earlier.

Guildenstern Mother posted:No its even better! She's going to have to convince the demiurges to fight as a team and its going to look like it'll work and then Maya's gonna shank Incubus Wouldn't that improve the morale of the remaining five?

Like Batman, Jagganoth has a plan to fight everyone around him. And we're only like 20 pages into a ~50 page fight scene.

magic manga powers have cool names that don't always perfectly describe what the power does, because the #1 rule for naming manga powers is to sound cool as hell all we need to know from this page is that Jagganoth has powers with cool names and Incubus just got rekt

Mottom- didn't want to be powerful anymore because her role as a "queen" was its own sort of prison Mammon- wanted to withdraw from the world, hide in his vault and vegetate Solomon- wants to find someone worthy of taking over his empire, even though his standards are impossibly high Jadis- very sincerely wants to die Those four, at least, all want out. Jagganoth, and I think Incubus, both want to shake up the system. Not necessarily in the same way, and not in ways that would be good for all the people living in the multiverse, but they both want the the status quo to end. Gog-Agog is insane.

dromal phrenia posted:She is actually just an incredibly powerful goofball, and the only demiurge having fun. Right now all her fellow rulers of the known multiverse are battling, seemingly for the fate of reality itself, and the current bearer of the key of kings is present. Thus far, she has... done some physical comedy. I think it's mostly this except I don't think she's actually having fun. I think she's just as miserable as the others.

Maybe. Like when she's described as "insane," I think of that the way we hear a true artificial intelligence would be insane. A thought process that cannot really be compared to human consciousness. She's playing a part and she's smart enough to play it well. So I'm probably wrong to call her miserable, too. I think Jagganoth has a plan to kill her. He didn't go there without some planning. Once he stops toying with the other demiurges I hope we get some flashbacks/exposition for the ones we knew the least about.
