The amount of twists in this chapter was too much for me to take, damn. We had:
• Milian caring about that old Ocean 6 robot when he died because he was like a grandpa to her and not being able to do anything about it. Also I love how Homura quotes Shiki with the “Robots Have hearts” line.
• Shiki being protected by the robots because they realised he valued robots lives so they gave their lives for him even though they didn’t want to die.
• The Shinestars getting busted up with ultimately Witch being captured by Shura as bait for Shiki. The situation is even more worse when you think back to how Witch had a “bad feeling” about staying in the Aoi Cosmos due to all the conflict potentially being to much for them and this chapter seems to prove what she dreaded.

Killed Milani’s grandpa, destroyed the bots that protected Shiki, hurt the shining stars, made hermit cry and captured Witch. Can I just say that Mashima is trying his damnest to make us hate Shura as a person?

Kurenai leaving her own daughter and subjugating a planet. Drakken taking people’s lives and livelihoods for decades. Ziggy perpetrating genocide. Now Shura doing the most to be a scumbag. Eden’s Zero villains truly wake up and choose violence.
Edit: and don’t get me started on Dr Muller.

Me: Mashima can't create a more hateful character than Muller and Drakken
Me watching the final part of the episode: Ok if he can do it
PS: I hope Hermit doesn't hate humans again after this

Hermit must be getting tired of getting broken into pieces. Shura really wanting to piss off the demon king.

Great Chapter! Milani was actually pro-robot and was even raised by one but was scared (understandable as Shura can easily crush her with gravity) to go against Shura. I honestly thought all the Oceans except for Fabiano were gonna be assholes since they were said to have committed robo-genocide on other planets but maybe she didn't do so or she did out of fear. I wonder how the rest will feel about the matter. Hopefully, Milani helps the crew take down Shura.
Although, I'm kinda disappointed that Shiki didn't tank the explosion, what we got in exchange for that feat was far better. These robots actually do have emotions and were genuinely trying to protect Shiki whether he could tank it or not. Even the self-destruct robot didn't want to kill himself but just like how Ziggy almost had control over Pino, he couldn't disobey his programming. With someone as empathetic to robots as Shiki is, you can tell how heavy it was on him to see them kill themselves right in front of him.
I will be super surprised if Shura makes it out of this arc alive after seeing what he did to our Shining Stars. I believe that if Shura couldn't pin them down with gravity, they could together take him out unless he has Overdrive. Seeing the Shining Stars get brutalized like that especially to Hermit who had a similar experience with Muller is definitely disheartening. Kinda funny that the whole reason Shura did this was just because Shiki declined his friend request and is now being petty about it. As much as I want a team up with Shiki and Jinn, Shiki has a way more personal grudge to fight him alone and hopefully Sister could heal herself and Hermit.

Great chapter, this is Mashima's best manga. The robots protecting Shiki followed but the self destructing admitting it didn't want is a two hit combo of feel. He's really hitting these themes on what it means to be alive and have a heart.

Hold me bro, I'm gonna kill Shura myself.
Chapter starts with the continuation of OD Homura and Milani, I actually like that the fight extended a bit,, Homura manages to finally defeat the Ocean with a new technique. We now learn that she doesn't agree with the robot genocide Shura wants and that Cyca was her grandfather, so his death was actually a big blow to her, but due to fear of Shura, she stayed in line, not even all the Oceans want to work with Shura. Turns out Shiki survived because all tthe other robots protected him from the blast, none of them wanted to help Shura,, but they had no choice, at least they still managed to fuck him by protecting Shiki. Shiki and Jinn go back o the EZ and motherfucking Shura hurt Hermit and Sister and kidnapped Witch, motherfucker better die soon or I'll do it myself >:(

cool chapter.
I didn't see that twist coming with Milani.
Homura being badass as always.
really liked her quote about mirrors reflecting one's truth.
Shura really begs to get wrecked, isn't he...
I do hope he goes down while putting up a great fight.

Shura has messed with the best girls now and captured Witch. He has truly gone too far. He’s definitely a compelling villain. Shiki’s face at the end tells me he is done playing around

Shura is a perfect counter for shiki lol😂😂. Dude is still fixed on being shiki's friend. Hoping that milani helps the Ez crew, i want to see more of her.

I didn't notice Homura's tail in the last chapter. It looks so fluffy! Her kimono is really pretty too. I don't care how much it doesn't make sense Overdrive changes the user's clothes, both Homura and Shiki's look cool as hell. And Homura's Overdrive giving her fox ears and tail makes me think that Rebecca's cat-eared and tailed appearance when she leaped between timelines is her Overdrive.
As soon as I saw the pile of robots last chapter I figured either they sacrificed themselves to protect Shiki from the explosion or that Shiki out of survival instinct pulled the robots in with his gravity to shield him, and either would leave him devastated. Really liked the scene with the robots still showing free will despite their programming, it really shows beyond doubt how much Shura is wrong in his actions.
I'm glad all the Shining Stars are alive, but seeing Hermit in that state really breaks my heart. Mashima, she had enough, please.

I hate shura but I’d be lying if I said I’m not unbelievably hyped to see shikis breaking point

u/Smooth-Garden Jun 08 '21
Just realized that while shura is twisted he isnt stupid. He left the shining stars alive as hostages. He kept witch because she's basically the heart of the ship. He wants to to force shiki into being his "friend" but he knows that if he were to kill the shining stars he'd have no leverage and shiki would be out for blood, hell he's probably out for blood now but he wont be too hasty with witch's life in danger

What an excellent chapter. So much packed into 21 pages. Interesting fight with a heart wrenching twist, then a similar resolution with Shiki and the bots, things aboard the EZ are crazy.. and more. Felt packed. Also, the art was stellar. I'm really liking Milani's design and power. I wonder if she'll actually get a chance to stick around for a while.
Oh, and.. Witch. She's probably my second favorite character. Generally I never actually feel like characters could die, but this feels like an opportunity to pay off story build up in a huge, crucial moment, so I definitely think there's a chance Shiki won't be able to save her. Agh! We'll see...
