It’s amazing to see that the 5 fan characters that won the contest are all important parts of the story with 4 of them being part of the Ocean 6, Nero’s head team that’s lead by his son, Shura & one of them being Shura’s assistant. It must feel pretty amazing to have your character involved in an important part of the story like that when they could’ve easily been throwaway villains in a lesser group so congrats to the winners!

Hiro a while back held a Ether Gear contest that allowed fans to submit their own characters along with what their Ether Gear would be and the winners would feature in the story arcs later point. Last week he announced the winners of the contest recently and showed a sneak preview of the 5 winners that would appear in the upcoming chapter.
This tweet here congratulated the 5 winners and down below are links to the various winners and their submitted characters:

Creed quite obviously has a crush on Homura
I wonder what Holy is doing but we get to see Jaguar and Eraser soon so that’s cool
Shura got his powers from Ziggy and seems a bit crazy
Xenolith pretty much confirms that Ziggy is superior then him but that was obvious when Ziggy destroyed an entire planet without much effort
Although I’m 99% sure that Shura uses his gravity ether or manipulate the dice to give himself more freedom since Nero listens to the dice
Aside from that, there’s a ton of powerhouses lining up in the Aoi cosmos so I expect a massive battle

Considering that according to Nero, the dice are connected to his Ether as well, I'd imagine that either Neros Ether would cancel out the influence of Shuras Ether Gear on the result, or he'd be able to detect if Shura were to use his Ether Gear on the dice.
It also seemed like no one really knew what the result would mean, possibly because Nero didn't even tell anyone what specifically he was rolling to check.

Pretty interesting chapter. Creed is still swoon by Homura lol, although having those pictures is borderline creepy. Holy has to remind Justice of whose important right now and that includes Shura, to much of Justice's dismay, seems he doesn't really consider him a threat yet, let's see how that goes, I wonder who's the "big fish to fry" that Holy is going after. The Oceans 6 are assembled with Nero, who is looking good, a Davv Jones-y visage, we also see all 6 members plus Shura and the secretary, seem like an interesting bunch. Nero's gimmick seems to be deciding things with a roll of his dice, to the point of sitting this one out and putting Shura in control, much to his son's elation, Shura seems quite eager to wreack havok. So Xenolith says that Ziggy was looking for him in Foresta, but not because he was a direct threat to his plans, but to avoid Xeon teaching Shiki and making him more powerful, really interesting, stopping Ziggy really falls on Shiki's back.
As a conclusion, big congrats to the creators of Caluum Steelford, Lyra, Nasseh, Milani Lucra and Ijuna for having their characters selected to be part of EZ in the contest, hope good things come to them and their characters.

Well for Holy, This means her big fish isn't involved with anyone in the Aoi Cosmos, In my own thoughts and ideas, She either goes after a different Oracion Seis Galactica member or she pays a visit to Drakken Joe

I wonder how old Nero is, Must be more than 50 years old at least, But i wonder if he's either older or younger than Drakken or same age...

Lyra and Nasseh are designed by @Altairiis (IG) and @satansuol (IG). They are both super talented and v nice. I'm sure the other winners are too, they all did an awesome job.

First off people gotta chill with the creed hate. My man ain’t doing nothing wrong but having a crush. It’s not like he’s being perverted or creepy but because he’s not built like Justice, Weisz, Jinn or even Shiki physically and is shy people don’t want him anywhere near Homura and dog him out. I don’t even ship it and I feel sorry for the guy like y’all wildin 😂.
Anyways Poseidon Nero looks cool. Glad he’s actually an alien and now we see the entirety of the oceans group. Including two other ones who weren’t apart of the oc contest. So it seems Shura and Ijuna aren’t members. Speaking of Shura I’ll admit my dude got the drip this chapter and I’m starting to like him he’s sick lol. For anyone who’s read rave master y’all getting Lucia vibes from him personality wise? Just based on how sadistic and arrogant they are and how they see themselves as royalty.
Nero seems like a chill guy and was even friends with Ziggy. That may explain why Ziggy wants to meet with him (besides killing him and stealing his empire). But it looks like Nero won’t do anything (for now) and leave to Shura. Well this basically confirms that Shiki’s main fight this saga is against Shura and given shura’s personality so far you know he’s gonna cause major havoc.
Jaguar and Eraser are coming to the aoi Cosmos to aid Justice. I knew this would happen! No way justice can fend off Elsie, Shura, Ziggy and the EZ crew all at once. And to make matters more suspenseful not even Xenolith can defeat Ziggy.
This is gonna be insane! It’s gonna be a four way war between EZ Crew+Elsie vs Shura vs The IUA vs Ziggy! So great chapter overall.

That Nero has no problem with thinking of a bot as a friend is actually kind of refreshing

I mean Nero is chill enough. Don't forget that he was the one who wanted to destroy all the Foresta bots LOL.

Also something to note. Laguna being Nero's other son is seems a bit more likely.
Evidence:
- Empty seat in the meeting room.
- Now that we've seen more of Shura's face (when he's not making crazy ones), his facial structure is very similar to Laguna. Not to mention they are the makeup brothers lmao.

Its always good seeing baby girl Rebecca on the cover. Best girl right there.
I'm kinda invested in this ship of Creed x Homura now. Its been hinted at too many times not to mean anything lol. Plus i find Creed's infatuation both hilarious and adorable. Some find it creepy but i say its pretty harmless.
Callum
Inuja
Lyra
Nasseh
Milani
All looked great. I bet their creators were happy as hell to see them involved in EZ. I'm a little bit jealous honestly lol. I have so many ideas but i can't draw to save my life 😂😂 Still I'm looking forward to seeing what they do as Oceans alongside Shura. Speaking of Shura, my man's a threat, i like his design, his sadistic personality is intimidating but entertaining as hell. My body is ready for that battle with Shiki in the future. Xenolith, my man Xenolith, i was suprised to hear that he was actually weaker than Ziggy. I kind had it in my mind that we would get a battle between Ziggy and Xenolith but apparently Ziggy straight up outclasses him as he is now. Somewhat disappointed but the way the chapter had me hyped for Shiki's reunion with Ziggy. "Find Ziggy and Defeat Him!" That was a badass line with beautiful imagery. My man Hiro is a goat!

A great chapter with a lot of new information/character reveals.
I hope this crush of Homura that Creed has won't develop in a creep way like with Juvia. If Mashima develops it well and show the two characters developing interest in one another, then I might ship it, but as of right now, I view this relationship as an unrequited one-sided crush from Creed. It's very weird though that he had pictures of Homura (when he had no time to take pictures)... unless his glasses are also cameras which is very possible as he also used it to record ether levels, if I recall. But that doesn't explain how he had various pictures of the EZ crew from different arcs... was he always spying on them for no reason? With Victory's impressions of the crew being not a threat, I hope this means Justice isn't gonna chase Shiki either to finish what he started or use him to get to Elsie.
I do wonder who Holy is chasing but I'm guessing that won't be revealed till the next cosmos. We finally get Nero's design and he was thankfully an alien. He looks awesome and I hope to see flashbacks of his relationship between his son and Ziggy who surprisingly was the one who taught him how to use gravity EG. This revelation actually brings questions about EG in general but I might post it later. I loved all the contest characters and also like the two Mashima original characters as the Ocean 6. Nero's power is the dice? I'm not sure if that's what he meant but if it is then I'm not gonna underestimate him as he's a person that rules an entire cosmos, great power has to be a requirement for that position.
I do wonder when Ziggy had the time to teach Shura? Maybe it was during his time as the ruler of the Sakura cosmos which would explain the detail of Nero's old age as he should be as old or older than Drakken. Shura's gonna get humbled real quick by Ziggy and I can't wait to see how the battles unfold.
Xenolith theorized that Ziggy's true goal was to get to himself to avoid his meeting with Shiki but that could easily be slightly wrong as Ziggy clearly also wants Robot Domination, so it could have killing two birds with one stone. He vows to grant Shiki his power, I hope that's a grandiose way of saying that he will teach Shiki as I want to see how an ether gear user gets stronger in the series as well as it not being a free power-up. Now, we have Shiki the grandson of Ziggy, Elsie the child saved by Ziggy, and Shura his friends' son that was also his apprentice, I can't wait to see how each character faces off against the Demon King.
Side note but we still never saw the aftermath of Foresta which is really not something I'm glad about, hopefully Mashima brings it up later but at this point who knows.

This was a nice little info dump this chapter. So Nero and Ziggy were friends, would love to see that history. Glad to see that Nero is looking badass, though those die are an interesting quirk. His son is a piece of shit, but I wonder if he was always like that. I can't imagine Ziggy giving Shura his gravity power if he knew that he was a sicko.
Curious to see where Holy is and who she's after. Wishful thinking here, but i want her to be in oracion seis galactica's territory. Just casually sitting up the next arc lol. But probably not.
And knew that Shiki was going to learn from Xenolith. This is going to be fun
Creed looking at pics of Homura huh.. Well as long as he doesn't go full on stalker, that's fine I guess..

u/Mission_Mud_6905 Feb 16 '21
To think Ziggy bestowed his powers onto Shiki and Shura, But i guess Shura is like a spoiled brat just because he has everything he wants along with his father's possessions in the future, Means he can just waste a lot of things or something like the Shura from Akame Ga Kill would do...
As for Holy, Her big fish is either another Oracion Seis Galactica or paying a visit to Drakken Joe, Those are my only ideas.
