Helck's combination of comedy and daily living and thrilling action and high tension drama is pretty novel and cool. Even though it wears its inspirations on its sleeves its a work that defies easy classification because it goes so many places over the short run we've seen so far. A good all round adventure epic that makes you laugh and feel and lots of other good stuff.

It's gonna end with everyone dead.

You keep saying that but the running motif of Helck is remaining strong and pleasant in the face of everything.

It would be really dumb for it to have a super down ending if the theme is perseverance.

Sharkopath

Even if Helck can't save his comrades or Alicia he won't let him self be consumed by anger and will show them his smile one last time, like he promised.

I bet he'll save them though because he's Helck and nothing will stop the gosh darned Helck.

I believe that Helck and Anne can save everyone.

I have no clue why helck would trust or believe them when they say it cantbbe done.

They just have to do the dark forbidden demon magic that turns every human into demons, which will make them all nice and likeable people again

conflict over.

they just said that in chapter 53 that the only thing keeping the awakened humans from destroying the world is the kings magic. kill the king the awakened people will just rampage across the planet.

Yeah, but that's the dudes who work for the king saying that, don't you trust them.

Incredibly pissed off Helck is probably the one thing that no number of them could have stopped, so it makes sense they'd lie to try to buy some time and he just fell for it.

Helck's life would have turned out way different if Piuy had been around.

Sharkopath

Piuy is going to defeat all foes by being the most adorable, and become unified emperor of the human and demon worlds.

Sharkopath
May 27, 2009

The human king is going to capture Piuy and try to awaken them but will inadvertently create an unstoppable monster with an iron will. Piuy bows to no one.

These are my Piuy theories.

This is a good reminder of one of the things I really like about Helck. It has very simple and generally practical clothing designs but still makes them memorable and distinct. Also lots of people are wearing gloves.

Fantasy clothing design can get really bad really fast, so its cool yeah.

Based on context it might be a shitload of new world Monsters. Or a Rival Empire.

Or what im actually expecting and its whole race of people like the Human King who just love to experiment on and puppeteer entire races.

Itd be ironic if the only thing that kept the humans living in their relative amount of safety is the Empire.

That was exactly what happened when they took out the Demon King.

The demons were constantly rebuffing monster attacks.

My bad translation:

Panel 1:
Anne: "That's strange... from what they said the other night, there should be a village nearby."

Panel 2:
Piuy and birds: "Chun chun... chun"
Anne: "Piuy! Could it be that you're able to converse with the birds?!"

Panel 3:
Anne: "Isn't that amazing! What are the birds saying?"

Panel 4:
Piuy: "Don't know!"
Anne: "You don't know?!"

Big panel:
Piuy: "That's because I'm not a bird!"
Big text: "Somehow not a bird"
Anne: "Then what was all that just now!?"

The fall of the human kingdom happened very recently, she's about the same age she was when we last saw her.

In retrospect it was probably kosher for Sharky (and Burbo) to edit that picture back in since the new chapter's officially out now, but since a lot of people use this thread to check if there's a new chapter, let's not be posting pictures from future chapters before those chapters have been linked to in the thread.

Sorry Sharky. Least you can sleep this one off.

No big. I don't think I single splash page that doesn't really reveal any information about the plot is a spoiler tho, it's just a cool looking page of azudora.
