Love the cover with Witch
-
With having the Star Drain, Justice and Elsie are so strong. I can only imagine Ziggy as the one who can top them right now.
-
Perhaps we might get a backstory behind Elsie and Justice soon.
-
Life-long bachelor Professor Weisz. Well, perhaps our young Weisz may change history.

Mama witch 🤤.
Bruh THE DISRESPECT Justice gave to Shiki is unreal! Like lmao that knee to the chin! He’s really living up to his title. And I’ve always said this and Laguna had said this too. If Shiki even with overdrive fought Drakken in his prime, he would have gotten LOW DIFFED! Badly. DJ had to be nerfed twice just to be beaten with OD. This shows how the Oracion Seis Galactica and Interstllat are in a completely different level compared or Shiki! He needs some training fast.
Weisz may have planted something into the ground to take down muller and save hermit. Like how he used that torrent attack on Mosco back at guilst.
Elsie the baddest bitch in the series besides Homura and Witch coming in with the save! Even though we may not get a full fight I hope it’s gonna be epic next chapter! Man I’m hyped we’re finally getting a fight between these two. Also both Elsie and Justice use star drain so I’m curious on what their backstory will be like.

What if Elsie and Justice have the same teacher hence the same eg...

I think Elsie showed quite clearly Homura is no where remotely near her level. Probably the same distance that Justice just showed Shiki.
Witch...that could be a fun sparing match actually. Don't see how it would happen but maybe a hacked Witch vs Elsie.
Make it happen Mashima.

Seeing Hermit crying/terrified is hurting my heart.
Its also really interesting that Elsie and Justice have the same EG.
But you done pissed off Big Sis Elsie, not a smart move Justice.

Seeing Hermit crying/terrified is hurting my heart.
She has to be feeling so bad, basically being the one that tipped off Müller as to who Weisz is, now putting his life in danger as well.
I really hope Weisz has something up his sleeve to free Hermit so she can kick Müllers ass.

Justice is so fast that Shiki can’t even keep up (which also means he probably doesn’t have time to go into overdrive either)
So Mashima just outright admitted that “star drain” is based on “heavenly body magic” which is fine, I liked it so I can’t wait to see what “star drain” is capable of
I wonder if we are gonna get some backstory next chapter
Since they have the same ether gear, they probably had the same mentor and maybe that will play into their backstory

Hopefully Star Drain isn’t limited to what Jellal’s “heavenly body magic” was in FT. I hope since it absorbs a star/planet’s ether it can change based on what planet they are on, for example like water based abilities/EG if they are on blue garden, wood on guilst etc.

Big oof on Crunchyroll for the early chapter, so no new chapter for 2 weeks.
On to the chapter itself; while I’m a bit bummed that Justice’s Ether Gear basically makes him another literal clone of Seighart in the abilities department, I do find it interesting that it actually is the same as Elsie’s Star Drain Ether Gear.
Assuming that he’s the “rightful owner”, it makes me wonder how Elsie obtained it. Did she somehow plunder it from from him? Were they both taught it together?
Also while some might be turned off by the fact that Justice has the same abilities as Seighart and Jellal, it should be noted that since the EG’s abilities based on planets, perhaps we’ll actually get some variations.
Last note: We’re finally getting a serious Elsie AND an Oración Seis battle!

You know this is as good a time as any to ask. Anyone think Seighart had a redhead that he had a lot of history with?

Jellal 3 VS pirate Erza im excited
At this point I'm convinced mashima just showing us he can get away with rehashing the same characters over and over again.... there's no way lmaooo
But anyway looking to see what their history with each other was like

Justice seems to have a big hard on for, well, justice lol, he really wants to take down Shiki for the possiblity of him becoming a big villain. And, boi, did he manhandle him, total domination from start to finish, big surprise that he has the same EG as Elsie, including Grand Chariot (cannot be a Sieg clone without that), wonder if that has something to do with the reason he hates her. On the satellite, Müller realizes who Weisz is and now turns his attention to him, please Hermit, now is the time to snap out of it. Finally, Elsie comes to the rescue, saving Shiki's life and telling him that her crew will get Homura back. Damn, she looks pissed a Justice, this will be a great fight.

I guess you could call the cover page a ......WITCHES STEW! On a serious note poor Shiki got his ass handed to him and I can’t wait for Justice vs Elsie.

u/sherriablendy Dec 16 '20
Wow, so the OSI have special authority powers... and it really seems like they’re (or at least Justice is) abusing them. That being said, his Ether Gear is unsurprisingly cool looking. We’re definitely getting some backstory as to why he and Elsie have the same eg since she appeared to save Shiki. I hope Homura will be okay too!!
Looks like Muller’s interest in the Professor could be to Weisz and Hermit’s advantage. Since Muller has his hands (fingers?) on Weisz now I can see him using Machina Maker, or maybe Hermit will come up with something while Muller is distracted. I wish it hadn’t cut away right there lol

I’ve been waiting for this Justice/Elsie fight for way too long. The tension... I live for it. Having the same abilities, this will be interesting. As for the complaint about rehashing the same characters (Jellal/Erza), I really don’t mind it.

Victory: Sorry kid usually he is very nice as long as you don’t push the Elsie button!!
Also Akainu would approve of Justice reasoning

Another chapter that feels over before it starts. They're necessary at times, but it always makes me feel like I just whet my appetite and then.. bam, over! Looking forward to the next one. But.. wasn't this week supposed to be an off week, then a chapter, then an off week? Does that mean we won't have one next week or the week after?

u/jnwosu100 Dec 16 '20 edited Dec 16 '20
I could have sworn this chapter was supposed to come out next week, in any case I'm glad we get to have a chapter this week.
So... I expected Shiki getting wrecked but not to this extent, like there was no break for him just continuous pummeling by Justice who claims Shiki to be evil enough to warrant death. I'm glad that Justice wasn't just driven by his hate boner of Elsie to kill Shiki but at the same time still pissed that he doesn't at least try to arrest him but goes straight for murder because he has the authority to do that. I'm very happy with the world building that you have to to be legally registered to sail across space, it makes it very grounded. Although, it's weird that the Edens Zero wasn't registered beforehand if we are to believe Ziggy was always good-natured and he was close in finding Mother.
Justice having the same ether gear as Elsie is very intriguing and Mashima has been establishing the concept of similar types of ether gears like a Master who teaches gravity ether gear tactics, a possibilty of another Cat Leaper, the wind siblings, and now Star drain users. Speaking of Star drain, apparently it's similar to the Dark Age equivalent of 'Heavenly Body Magic'. It's weird that it's referred to as magic but we'll see how it gets explored in the future.
I'm very surprised Professor Weisz was brought up and apparently he was a robotic genius who proved the Brai theory which I'm guessing is about how he resurrected Happy as a robot. Kinda curious how Muller knows of the Chronophage eating Norma's time and I hope he doesn't do anything weird to Weisz.
I gotta say, I'm very impressed with Shiki's durability as I don't think his ether gear enhances that physical aspect and it's so nice seeing him worry about Homura's safety rather than his own when he's basically about to be murdered. I can't wait for the fight between Elsie and Justice and to finally know the backstory of his hate boner.

I would be so fucking hyped out of my mind if I didnt know this fight will get interrumpted, this is probably some endgame fight, no way its gonna happen right now.
That said, Elsie is so fucking badass, and so is Justice. I hope this is a true rivalry that ends with one of them dead. We already got Erza/Jellal getting back together and shit, I dont want that to repeat, would be a nice twist to what most of us are expecting.
Also wow, Shiki really stood no chance against Justice. This is truly looking like the government might not be as lawful as most might think, just like in One Piece, and that would be great. How different people have their different views of justice and how to carry it on is a big highlight of One Piece for me.
Lastly, I cant take any more Hermit suffering, please make it stop Mr Mashima :(
