Just marathoned all of HELCK last night and :negative:.

I want the current Helck to be air dropped right into the capital and to just start wrecking poo poo, Hulk style. I liked pretty much all the little gags too, and I really liked the hot-blooded Souma wannabe shonen cook.

I think that Vamirio/Anne's opinion towards Helck is going to change pretty drastically from here on out too. I also actually completely expect the story to end with a peace between demons and humans, with Helck as the demon king and Azudora as the human king as a symbol of the peace. Man humans in this story are mostly horrible though, good grief.

Yeah, I hope that the evil dudes are in fact lying about there not being a way to undo the awakening. Even if they're sure it can't be done, it's a big world out there with literal magic in it, so it's very possible there's a way to do it that's beyond their knowledge.

Ah, somehow I thought that Helck was trying to become the Demon King in charge of everyone, not the one in charge of a single castle and the surrounding region. That makes much more sense, and explains why the top demon competitors had power levels in the 50-ish range while the 4 heavenly kings were shown to be way stronger.

I'm worried about Asuta since it is about time for the humans to accomplish something in the battle against the demons.

I was about to flip out about the TWIST and then it got mostly undone. Now that they've teased it I want it to be true for maximum tragedy.

Helck, the depressing manga and the good guys striving to undo the depression. It's really covered an impressive amount of ground in around 70 chapters, I'm looking forward to Helck and Anne from management finally getting back to demon territory and trying to figure out how to save mankind. Sounds like it'll lead to a quest arc to a foreign land to me, which suits me just fine. Show us more of the crazy world, thanks.

Shocked that Azudora managed to pull through. Glad, but shocked.

This does make me worry that the big thing that the humans will try to do to break Helck now is to kill Anne from Management though :ohdear:.

Dang, big new developments in the latest chapters. Looks like things are headed towards being wrapped up, but I also hope we get into the rest of the demon kingdom.

The most interesting idea off the top of my head is a subversion of typical action mangas where instead of getting stronger and stronger, Helck is greatly weakened and the new threat has to be mostly managed by the demons and a similarly weakened Cless. Basically take Helck from a single competitor to a tag-team guy with his brother, in terms of fighting.

Mostly I just want Helck to keep on going though, it's been too much fun for me to want it to end quite yet. 300 chapters or bust!
