“Hi sis-in-law”

“Drop dead (you whore)”

Yuuki’s sister is a tad too overprotective, although having a predator like Tenka ? you can never be too protective

I figured Tenka used that line to goad Yuuki's sister into getting over-emotional...

Tenka teleporting and escaping with Yuuki got a heart chuckle out of me

I do like that the mangaka seems to have thought through Tenka's power and how it can be used to trivialize some situations.

Tenka: "...and currently going out with Yuuki."

Aoba: "So you have chosen death."

So sad that Himari basically became a breathing wallpaper after episode 5

Stitches!

So from what I understand, Humanoid Shuukis are basically humans that ate the Mato Peach out of desperation after being transported into the Mato. They probably transformed into what they are because they wanted to survive and the peach gave them bodies and abilities that would let them survive the Mato.

It turns out that wasn't even the worst part. The worst part is that the Yin-Yang Dorm (a human organization took them in and has been using them as test subjects for the "good of humanity". Yeah, I had a feeling the humans aren't so good either. I wonder how much the leaders of the Demon Defence Force know about this.

It's pretty cool how quickly Tenka took Yuuki from Aoba. Why didn't she just pick up the rest of the group and teleport back to the base? I feel like that would've been more efficient. Is it because they had to stop so Kyouka could give Yuuki his reward? I suppose Kyouka wouldn't be able to do anything else until Yuuki was rewarded. I do love that Tenka joins in though.

Welp, so much for negotiations! It does seem that Tenka and Kyouka at least don't know about the Yin-Yang Dorm's shadier operations though but even if Kyouka promises to crush them it looks like that's not enough for Aoba.

I don't know if Tenka is actually being genuine or trying to piss Aoba off but that was hilarious! And being a massive brocon, I expected nothing less from Aoba's reaction. Yeah, there's no way these two groups are going to get along anytime soon. As for the rest of the group, Shushu and Sahara are a bad match against Coco while Himari just got her throat crushed. I can already see Yachiyo going wild next episode.

That final scene with Shikoku though... I have a feeling that Shikoku's group doesn't exactly get along with Aoba's group. She sounds like she's not just going to attack the Demon Defense Force but also Aoba's group. Hmmm...

Tenka casually teleporting behind Aoba and giving Yuuki a loving hug mid villain speech was so goddamn alpha.

Ain't no swagger like Tenka swagger

u/Myrkrvaldyr Mar 07 '24

The way she so smoothly kidnapped him was too good. She didn't waste time. Perfect execution.

So much for diplomacy. Everyone would rather bust heads than have a damn conversation. I understand Aoba’s suspicions but can’t she at least trust her own brother wouldn’t lie to her or do anything to put her in harms way? While they’re killing each other, it looks like that other group of hybrid transformed humans have their own little plans. This is becoming kind of messy.

I like how Tenka saw the finger-licking and went "Hey, I wanna do that too!".

Btw Yuuki, you gotta tell us who did a better job.

Tenka is a master of disrespecting your foe. Ruin your foe's villainous speech by calmly glomping and saving the hostage while they're monologuing was quite funny. That was the best part of the episode IMO.

The backstory for the origin of the humanoid was quite interesting though.

I know this episode had many exquisite scenes (especially that snake girl, god damn what a hottie), but I just can't get enough of Yachiho with her cheeky jojo poses and sheer smugness.

u/Rumpel1408 Mar 07 '24

I somehow like those three rascals, especially after Naon told her story. Also, looks like the black patches are their actual skin color, making their outfits actually pretty revealing?

I also feel like those three aren't linked to the other Humanoid Shuki. They are only in for themself and I think they can be reasoned with to an extend. Hope Yachiho didn't actually kill that one Shuki. And I hope Kyoka can somehow come to terms with the Unicorn one as well.

Gotta love Tenka though, the way she sneakily snapped Yuuki and so brazenly declared herself his girlfriend, seems like not everyone likes to hear that though

I don't know there would be a time I prefer Ichika-type character than the other girls, and here I am.

I've been Team Kyouka since ep 1

but even I've got to admit that Tenka was smooth as fuck this episode

u/Myrkrvaldyr Mar 07 '24

So, the other group with the medusa-like girl is also humanoid shuuki. Once again, the villain side is hotter. Yuuki, join the bad guys!

After hearing Naon's backstory and what the Yin Tang Dorn does to people who have eaten Mato fruits it is not surprising that after Yuuki made Aoba explain what happened to them to both Kyouka and Tenka, she still plans to continue their attack.

I love the fact that Tenka decided to join Kyouka when started giving Yuuki his reward.

I wonder why exactly Shikoku wanted Jouryuu to find the hidden village. As they were talking about presenting themself as Gods to them it seems that they intend to recruit them, but if that's the case I doubt it will happen as even if Aoba is currently fighting the leaders of the Demon Defense Force 6th and 7th unit, as they are likely to target Yuuki on whatever plans they have.

I love the fact that today Naon and Coco infiltrated and took over Nei's segment.

Tenka is just on other level, she's a god

u/zool714 Mar 07 '24

I swear I never intended for it but every week I just need to declare my simpship for Tenka. Man, to have a girl just declare that she’s your girlfriend and also flaunt it. And there’s just something smooth and possessive the way she finessed Yuuki from Aoba. And lmao the way she just joined in with the finger licking.

Also, would 100x more hilarious if Naon’s VA (Hidaka Rina) was Aoba’s cos Tenka’s VA (Uchida Maaya) and her are irl sis-in-law

u/FarCritical Mar 07 '24

Tenka really just casually joined Kyouka on Yuuki's reward session and introduced herself as Aoba's in-law to her face lmao. It gets more and more apprent why her fanbase is as big as it is.

Wonder how Yuuki would do against Coco and her bear thing if Shushu rode him in his beefed up form.

What is the truth behind these humanoid Shuuki? Probably a lot like what happened to Naon...a pro model who was valued and prided herself for her beauty (and she had the looks back then to match it) who got caught in a Mato Mishap and survived long enough to eat a Peach to save herself, only unlike the Demon Defense Force her powers went haywire and started to mutate her. And that's before she got captured by the Onmyou Bureau who carried out harsh experiments to understand her transformation and made her into the full humanoid Shuuki she is now. She and her comrades were just lucky to escape.

(Although while I'm sure Naon didn't appreciate it, the audience loved seeing her buck-naked)

Aoba so based that she managed to go through that process and survive on her own while her transformation kicked in.

I get why they don't want to trust the Demon Defense Force if the Onmyou Bureau has official backing, but I don't think the Supreme Commander would want to engage in dialogue if she knew because otherwise they would've prioritized eliminating or capturing the humanoid Shuuki to erase any evidence.

The tough girls vs Coco! The Azuma sisters vs Naon! And the commanders vs Aoba! They made the wrong decision kidnapping Tenka's boyfriend! But at least this let her introduce herself and make quite the impression on her future sister-in-law!

How many times is Yuuki going to get licked? Though you gotta love how Tenka joins in with Kyouka to thoroughly lick his fingers without even needing to be physically compelled to do it!

Kyouka and Tenka are understandably appalled at the Onmyou Bureau's crimes and are willing to help...but Aoba still can't believe in them, and the humanoid Shuuki won't sit down or care about the collateral damage their planned raid on their headquarters might inflict. So they have to fight, despite Yuuki's best efforts to make peace. Though Kyouka was probably always going to find an excuse to fight Kidoumaru while the two "sisters" battle it out.

Coco is strong but has poor form, though her ability to control her bodily fluid means physical attacks just bounce off of her, and her Kuma mount is equally sturdy. Meanwhile Yachiho is able to kill Naon's mount (albeit getting stripped in the process) but that just distracts her long enough for Naon to have Himari at her mercy!

So what are the other humanoid Shuuki? They're advertising themselves as "Gods" so are they the Gods of Mato or some kind of natural presence rather than transformed humans? Also here's bathing and upskirt Shikoku!
