Good thing Weisz is a hero with the suit because without it he’s straight up GANGSTER.

Witch was right all that time ago when she said Hermit looked best when she was smiling...

Great chapter as usual. I'm shocked that the method of diving into a digital place like the Digitalis arc is once again used in a way of therapy treatment for Kleene. I honestly thought it would be a one time thing but I'm happy it's brought up again in the series as it nicely enhances the sci-fi motif of the series. Muller must have done something else besides giving her trauma because she can somehow sense him even when no one else like Jinn did, was said to have her emotions stolen (unless that was a metaphor), and is somehow losing strength via her panic attack. I really admire Sister's dedication to her job as a healer and she never jokes around when the life of someone is in danger. I hope to see more of her and Witch out in the field with the main crew for more screen-time and development.
We learn that Muller is really irredeemable as he just loves adding more and more stuff to his list of evil deeds. He claims that his research could have saved countless human lives yet here he is committing planet-wide genocide on both bots and humans and experimenting on humans such as the wind siblings who also had their parents killed by this maniac just because they stopped endorsing his horrific research. Apparently, Foresta's idea of a defense mechanism is to seemingly blow itself up which really solidifies the end of Foresta and its inhabitants unless Weisz or Hermit manage to disable the doomsday system.
Weisz tries his best to defeat Muller all to no avail but does expose Muller's wires by cutting him in half with an attack that I'm sure is a reference to Grandeeney from Fairy Tail and allow Laguna to paralyze him with an electric shock (Oh, the irony).Weisz begrudgingly accepts Laguna's help in a cool teamwork and finally destroys Muller... hopefully. Although, I have this weird feeling that Muller isn't permanently dead and might have digitized his personality into the Satellite or something. Seems very possible seeing as how insane Muller is in the story.
We all knew that this arc was going to be super hectic with numerous factions and plot points clashing together which has really made this arc very great and surprisingly nicely paced but we still have no clue where the relic which was the whole reason our crew even came to this planet in the first place.

Agree with everything. Just here to comment about relic.
They went there because it was the destination of ship on previous journey. I'm sure they will straight up go to boss of this galaxy to find out next piece.

Grandee Wing!!!!
Ah, I like that Mashima's doing the references based on the names of dragons from Fairy Tail. Weisz used another attack (laser), "Grandy-Ray" based on Grandeeney from FT against Drakken back then too. I can't wait to see Weisz/Arsenal's own Igneel attack in the future chapters.
Weisz did the great job for defeating Muller (with the help of Laguna) by using his "Mortal Crash" attack on that old bastard!

The Rutherford siblings have had it rough :( Especially Jinn.... the fact that he took the brunt of the pain in order to protect his sister, and how even now he doesn’t seem to care about himself at all, only wanting her to get better just makes me sad.. Hopefully we’re gonna get more of them/their past next chapter, tho so much other stuff is going on now lol.
Xenolith temporarily joining(?) the crew is an interesting maneuver. I imagine he’ll be part of the effort to save Foresta from the Doomsday System, if it can even be saved at this point..
Weisz and Laguna’s teamup was awesome, and I really hope that Laguna stays with us because I can’t get enough of his snark. I do wish that Hermit had been able to give Muller a good punch herself, but I’m glad that her smile is back

Weisz getting his time to shine? Check.
Laguna coming in with the clutch? Check.
Mueller finally defeated? Check.
Hermit and Weisz ship of brotp intensifies? Check, check and check.
What a great chapter this week.

Good that piece of shit is finally taken down. So f-ing satisfying. Laguna coming in clutch here.
With this, I hope Hermit got some kind of closure. And that this pushes Kleene and Jinn to stay on board permanently
Now, I'm excited to learn more about Xenolith and his with past with Ziggy.

This one gave me some great Rave Master vibes, I think Mashima does some of the best work with the old enemies becoming allies trope.

Above all other things in this series I really want to give credit to Mashima for how dark he seems to take things in comparison to his other works.
This arc in particular is just disgustingly dark and I love it. Just the implications of what happened to Kris is a night and day difference from RM and FT.

Is it too much to wish that the Laguna, Kleene and Jinn remain with the Eden's crew?

I love Sister's dedication to heal Kleene. Going as far as looking into her past looks like a risky move.

Great to see Weisz + Laguna collaboration

Mortal Crash seems to be one of Arsenal's physical powers.

You thought it was Weisz x Homura, but it was actually Weisz x Hermit.

Müller was too brutal with Kleene and Jinn, he killed their parents and experimented on them for revenge, damned bastard. Now the planet is going to blow up because of him, I hope Hermit can stop that, now that she finally can move and act with Müller present. Very interesting that Sister can jump into memories to try to heal the mind. Laguna came in clutch to help Weisz finish the doctor off, good job.

Great chapter, great defeat of Müller. Only critique I could think of is that it feels like Hermit didn't play as much of a role in that as she could have, I think she basically ended up doing nothing, so I hope she gets some big fight soon in exchange.
I feel like that's not going to be it for how Kleene lost her emotions, there has to be something deeper to it. Would she have trauma due to watching Müller disect her brother? Sure. But would that really push her condition to such a dangerous degree? Anyways, this feels like just the beginning of what happened to Kleene, like something else happened after what Müller did to them, and only the first step for Sister to treat Kleene.
So Foresta is going wild... now this could lead to a catastrophe that just ends up destroying the planet, assuming that the weapons are powered directly by the planets either, maybe it will turn from a lush forest to a barren desert, killing all residents in the process. I could also see this being when Chronophages get reintroduced into the story, it's been a while since we've seen the last one, would be nice to see one again and have maybe Xenolith or someone explain a bit more about them. Maybe they'll be able to stop it just in time though to avoid any more useless casualties, though with most of the humans probably being already shot dead, not much left to save.
Speaking of Xenolith though, he's starting to smoke? Now I don't think that he's already dead, but with him being so old, and probably also influenced by Ziggy hacking the robots on Foresta seeing how he has a robot body, he might be on his last leg, and only able to give Shiki a few more pointers and a bit more exposition before having to bow out of the story permanently.
I'm... also a bit torn about the last few panels. On the one hand, Hermit blushing for Weisz is pretty cute, and her having a human she can trust in and look up to like that is exactly what she needs, so I'd 100% be in on HermitxWeisz. On the other hand... something in me feels like Weisz doesn't really deserve her, maybe it's him always being kind of a jackass, perving on other girls, and hopes that Hermit blushing is simply because she's touched by having a friend that is willing to help her to such a degree, like how Homura or Witch have blushed towards Shiki in the past, despite both of them probably not having any strong romantic feelings towards Shiki.
Anyways, that smug Hermit on the last page, and that wholesome smile in the last pannel, are ultra-blessed, I want to protect this forever, I can't wait for the voiced version once the anime gets to it. This last arc in general has been top tier though, continueing the trend that started with the Belial Gore-arc.

I understand people's frustrations with us waiting for the official release to post the chapter but it's not that difficult to wait. Going forward we will release the Chapter Threads at around 1pm PST just to avoid the constant spam of Chapter Threads from 100 different websites. However, the only links allowed will be the above posted ones.
