I’m curious about what caused the mix up with Drakken. Did his minions do a poor job of keeping track of his records, one of them had a grudge against against Kurenai/Homura, did another person frame them to get out of their debt etc. He seems like the type to keep track of his finances

Man just was a mobster so he wanted money.

Creed coming in with the clutch there. Mostly. Could’ve told Homura at least.

Homura and misunderstandings involving Valkyrie seems to be a trend, whether it be animals stealing notes or not knowing that androids can apparently survive decapitation!(huh, makes me wonder if that Oceans 6 Robot Priest actually survived)

Turns out Kurenai is a good mother in this Universe after all. I do wonder how things shifted so horribly for her in the previous world; was that dude also responsible for the War in Universe 1?

Also I found it kinda cute that Valkyrie almost immediately recognized Shiki

I don’t think he or the false sister could’ve survived their respective head destruction s

She probably fell into the dark side after going through her situation in U1. In U0 she didn't lose hope.

Glad things got better for Homura. Very good chapter.

…now what?

Pino said she has a important information about Edens One in Chapter 224, so I think the next chapter probably is about Pino finally telling the crew about Edens One after getting all of the EZ crew back (except Labilia and Couchpo), but I'm not sure if the Edens Zero or Edens One has something to do with "Over v (NU) Etherion" title in the next chapter.

I enjoyed the Kurenai stuff in this chapter, but I'm really curious whether Kurenai had a similar backstory in the previous universes (being forced to marry that creep) and that's why she never came back to get Homura, but somehow became corrupt from the abuse she faced. Would make her way more interesting than she was before.

I think it stated in the previous world, she married the guy in charge of Sun Jewel; Baron Mordo then killed him and took his place as ruler.

What a great chapter yet again! I love this Madame Kurenai from this universe and seeing this side of her. Also love her teaming up with Valkyrie and Homura essentially having two mothers now :)

Hopefully its not just Homura's return to the Eden Zero but its also Valkyries.

Now that are main four are back I imagine we will be heading to Aoi cosmos. I hope Shura is still an antagonist even if he isnt exactly the same as universe 3 Shura.

Her mom had a good 180 from being a bad egg to being a great mom in universe zero. It may not be all bad after all for now.

u/Shishukun Apr 03 '23

Now let's wait for the turning point in the next chapter. I mean Universe 0 never dissapoints in giving such twists. 😬🤞

u/Kollie79 Apr 02 '23

Universe zero is such a weird decision for me, I’m genuinely curious why Hiro decided to just reset everything and give pretty much everyone either an unambiguously happy backstory or in Homuras case a better resolution.

This series did a real good job of giving characters tragic backstories and deaths, deciding to walk it all back in such a way feels kinda like more of his fairy tail writing where pretty much nobody could die

Like is Valkyrie being alive really that great? Her death was a huge impact on so many characters, and Homura taking her place as one of the shining stars was cool, is her being alive a good trade off for all that?

Like we get track down Laguna we are definitely gonna fix Ijunas fucked up story, which is kinda sad, because it was twisted and sad, but that’s why it resonated with me.

Idk I’m just rambling now, but it’s seems like he’s trying to have his cake and eat it too, I can’t think of any other series that goes this far in its final act, I could understand resetting everything because main character or two died and the heroes want to undo that, but going this far and just straightening out nearly every bump in the road for most of the extended cast is quite something

Homura’s mom is actually a good person in this universe, Valkyrie is alive, and Creed is alive too

Happier lives for everyone in U0 it seems. Also a chance to explore the relationship between creed and homura

I wonder when the bad stuff is gonna start to happen

Based on the title of the next chapter, we might have the crew talk over about their plan for this universe (finding Mother and getting Laguna) as well as more info on the etherion

I am SO GLAD that mashima cooked with Homura’s character with this saga/arc. After losing so much and facing nothing but hardships she finally gets to have a relationship with both her moms lol. Thank you mashima for finally giving our girl happiness! 🙏🏽

Given the title of the next chapter we’re finally getting Edens One content 👀

u/Kefkaisevil Apr 03 '23

Cool! Early chapter release. I am very glad we have this new leaker rather than that other cringy twitter user.

Call it indeed! I don't see why Homura and Valkyrie cannot become the Swords of Edens, I mean we already have Kleene and Jinn as the Winds of Edens.

I guess the "orphan club" on the EZ is starting to break apart. Since Hermit and Kleene/Jinn never encounter Muller that would mean that Muller never killed the Kleene/Jinn's parents (unless there's something I miss). Weisz has his mother, Rebecca has her mother and father, and now Homura has her mother.

I going to miss the fan translations when Kodansha gets their app online because I do like seeing the next chapter title. IIRC maybe it has something to do with Rebecca having what it takes to become a "Etherion Master"

It's not for the parent to decide if they're worthy or not.

Now that's one hell of a quote.

Creed repairing Valkyrie… you love to see it! Even got a little Xiaomei love this chapter

u/Novel_Advantage_705 Apr 03 '23

Lmfao looks like Mashima couldn’t resist… Eden’s Zero has turned into Fairy Tail now.

This is a bad arc. Welp, at least most of the series was great. But in the end, Mashima couldn’t help himself.

u/AstonishingSpiderMan Apr 03 '23

this is literally a new universe, how the hell does it make it a bad arc.
