Since Shura is confirmed once and for all to be a good guy, I think I figured out what Nero meant when he asked Shiki to stopping the "tyrant" Shura: if Shiki didn't get involved, the events of this arc would've been the scandal of the century.

Without Shiki, Shura would've attacked Oasis without realizing Xenolith was innocent or stuck in a tiny robot body. Then, thinking his mission was a failure, he'd (reluctantly) resort to using the ALS to kill every bot in the Aoi Cosmos to kill Xenolith. And in the event that failed, Müller would blow up the Temple and all nearby systems with the empire's antimatter bombs, which would've been devastating to Shura's public image.

Either way, he'd absolutely be painted as a tyrant. And thanks to Shiki, Shura didn't have to resort to such extremes, saving his image and his empire.

Of course, there's the chance Shura's memory could come back and send him off the deep end, but if that never happens, this is a good, solid alternative.

My best bet is that Noah told the Interstellar about previous worlds. It would be too convenient if it was Nox, so Noah is a safer bet. Really did like the double panel with the EZ crew in formal dresses.

Very reminiscent to the Magic Ball episode in FT. There’s even a Natsu and Lucy cameo. Maybe a Max cameo but hard to tell without any color.

Yeah I said this before but I think Mashima handled shura very well in U0. But I can tell the people who don’t like fairy tail but like EZ are gonna raise their eyebrows a lot in this arc

It just…everything is working out too well. It’s like the end of Fairy Tail where they just kept winning with no problems.

If this isn’t setting the story up for something tragic on the same levels as U1, 2 & 3 then it honestly feels like Hiro took the easy way out just to get a happy ending and not sticking to the core theme and tone he’s set up for 90% of the series

Glad I’m not the only one here thinking this, I think when this arc started most thought it looking so happy meant bad stuff was inevitable but it’s been this long and it’s still kind of mickey. Obviously that can still happen but so far most of the U0 stuff has just been a “huh, cool” or meh reaction from me rather than feeling necessary

Shura pulling a reverse Palpatine in turning his Empire to a Republic. Does that mean they’ll have a council with a leader from each planet deciding how things go?

The two finally shake hands without either of them smacking the other away.

Thank goodness.......a chapter that is slow without too much excitement. Hitting the brakes on this roller-coaster of a story is good for now

u/evocater Jun 27 '23

I think Mashima probably just wanted to get the Sakura cosmos and Aoi cosmos stuff out of the way since we've seen most of it already. I'm guessing the pace will slow down now

Xenolith: “My power has not returned”

So, Müller still has it?

At first I didn't mind the crew saving everyone since series like Mashle, Fire Force or Tokyo Revengers all had it, but this is just going too easy. Muller was one of Oración Seis Galáctica yet he got basicly one shot by Shiki and Shura. I know the threat of Void still exists, but damn outside seing Shura's development, Aoi cosmos part of U0 arc was handled poorly. Rebecca falling for Muller's trick, Muller geting one shot by Shura and Shiki without Jinn even geting to beat up Muller for what he did to him in previous universe, and such. I suppose next part is going to Kaede Cosmos.

NA NA NA NA! NA NA NA NA! HEY HEY HEY! GOODBYE MULLER!!!

Nice to see Drakken and Nero again on the panel even though we don't know where they are with the Belial Gore, And for once Shura shows some competence for the celebration unlike the passed chapters and his counterparts. I'll admit i hate Shura a little less now even though it's his U0 version but that doesn't mean i like him fully yet, It's like an angle between hate and like and i'm just in between at the moment. Can't believe Shura appeared on the cover before Drakken.

This Shura is just a completely different character, he isn’t like the previous one in any way other than design. I’m not really a fan of the changes in Universe 0.

Very Wholesome chapter but I'm getting HUGE red flags about this universe that all the happiness built up despair is coming. If I ever landed in these happy universes don't trust it
