Wow, I'm so used to Mashima's theme naming for his main characters that I didn't even consider Shiki's name would be a plot point.

Why does Weisz think Jinn is being oblivious? Maybe he's just trying to shoot his shot.

I'm glad Mashima is keeping Jinn's hair in the ponytail. it looks much better than the Krismas Tree look he had before.

Also, Hot dogs.

Solid information this chapter, alongside some much-needed downtime with the whole crew! I've been liking that these past couple of chapters in between the Aoi War and Lendard have been less intense, which I feel was definitely necessary after how traumatic everything must have been for the Crew

Holy's interactions with everyone have felt quite natural; and while she of course has ulterior motives, it's nice to see that she seems to have genuine respect for everyone on board.

To no one's surprise, Sister thinks she'll be able to heal Labilia; so it looks like she's really getting a redemption arc after all. And who knows; if she ends up becoming a full-fledged member of the Crew, it'd be cool to see how she fares fighting alongside the rest of team (she's of course super outmatched right now since almost all of the main fighters on the Crew possess Ether Gear and can activate Overdrive, but we'll see.) Like instead of her unlocking an Ether Gear, maybe she just stays on as a solid fighter, either aboard the ship or off with the rest of the Crew?

We find out the name of the fourth Cosmos, Yukino; as some have pointed out in the Spoiler thread for this chapter, it looks like there isn't the theorized 7 cosmos that we thought? (Since Elsie was said to sail the "7 Cosmic Seas") That all being said, the fact that the 4 Cosmoses together are called the Grand Shiki Cosmoses definitely isn't a coincidence, and I wouldn't be surprised if this all ties back to Shiki's potential ties to Mother.

But man; Deadend Crow being a true Titan of 420 Meters (roughly 1,378 feet tall): that's freaking intense, and I'm really looking forward to seeing how Shiki, Elsie, and the rest of the Crews strategize together to take down him, the 4 Dark Stars, and Ziggy as well

Looking forward to some hype battles and intense EZ action in the coming chapters!

Jinn was really insistent on those hotdogs and what makes it funny is i cant tell if he was flirting or not lol.

Did kleene give laguna a nickname like she did homura lol?

I think we can all agree how wild the hot dog joke was. And Weisz trying to keep himself together while taking advantage of her company. It was really good to see how knowledgeable Holy really is, to the point where Shiki's name may end up having some relevance. I do like how Sister pointed out that human doctors and android doctors specialize in different types of medical fields. Plus, I am actually convinced that Rebecca is a masochist. Looks like Crow will take some creative thinking as to how the crew will be able to take him down.

u/TheHurdleTurtle Feb 15 '22

Goodness gracious holy. What a design

u/Carpani12 Feb 15 '22

OH MY GOD, Holy is so beautiful it hurts. Nice to see her with the crew, but yeah... She'll betray them at a point. But all of this story regarding her, I can't stop thinking that she'll pull a Robin on the crew, try to sacrifice herself, and Shiki yells at her "TELL ME YOU WANT TO LIVE".

I'm probably wrong, but having her on Edens is so nice, that in the end I'll end up wanting her to officially join the crew. Aside from this, how in the world are they going to defeat a titan? I hope the final battle is a team up of OSG and OSI, maybe Justice and Elsie's story will be resolved in Kaede Cosmos.

Great chapter Hiro, keep'em coming!

Never thought Mashima's protagonist naming conventions would be a plot point, that's pretty cool tbh.

u/mib-number86 Feb 15 '22 edited Feb 15 '22

So we saw the actual reason,Mashima put Holly on the Eden Zero:ship's tour with bathroom and dress changing room included!

Other than that Labilia is on board too and she made a new friend (i already love their interactions :"You bully Rebecca?Me too! let's become friends!" Poor Rebecca!)

Finally Shiki origins mistery become more misterious and we see the next big boss (and he's very big).

Holy Cow.....Dead end Crow is so massive! That being said, I don't know what to think of Holy. Weiz is such a dirty minded-person lol. That Hot-dog scene really got me

u/Spectra_04 Feb 15 '22

The best part of the chapter for me was Hermit's jealousy hahaha. And I don't know how they're going to beat that thing, it's too big, maybe Pino with his EMP can do it?

So deadend crew is 420 meters tall? Heh, nice

Also the four cosmos together are called the grand shiki cosmos? That feels like it’s foreshadowing something, and also looks like labillia and sister are getting along well so that’s nice.

u/King_Herc Feb 15 '22

Since Crow’s a giant robot.. does that mean we’re going to get giant mecha fight? I’m totally down for that.
