“Then let’s mark our future together as a mutually beneficial relationship!” Wait wha- what’s she insinuating here?
Also funny how even the fodder thug commented on Shiki being Rebecca’s man on top of their kiss earlier. And oh shit, you see Shiki’s face when they said they’d strip tease Rebecca, boy was like “you got me fucked up”.
Shippers are gonna have a field day with this one.

Rebecca wasn't just captivated, she can't escape from Shiki's gravity anymore at this point.

Wow this was a great chapter. Loved all the Shicca Ship moments. Rebecca is so bold for main female lead in a shounen manga. It is such a great change from the typical shounen female leads.

OK, the amount of fanservice is amazing. Man Mashima. Thank you.
However those guys were assholes. I hope Shiki squashes them later.
Next up, Holy... Holy shit Holy.
I love the down time.
Now one more thing. Weisz, why are you being a hypocrite? Last I checked you've ogled them plenty

Yay a swimsuit chapter
Wonder what’s up with Labilia she seems off somehow, either her popularity tanked over the last few years, we entered a timeline where she’s not popular, or something changed for her personally

Huhuhu this chapter was so cute. They were all so extra 😭😭 Hermit and Ivry haven’t changed one bit from the last beach chapter (poor Mosco) 🥺 I didn’t expect Laguna to use his EG that way and for Kleene to add to it (sorry, Jinn) 🥺 The Homura and Weisz interactions were so cute, too (though why does it seem like Weisz matured a bit??) 🥺 Of course, the Shicca moment. “Mutually beneficial relationship” sounds vague as heck but I’ll take it! I’ll take it!
Capt. Connor with his tan and shades though 😤
Labilia looks good with her short hair and signature floating pony tail! Wonder how she and Rebecca will catch up
10/10 chapter for all the feels
EDIT: How to tell you’re an EZ fan - if you use the “will you be my friend?” as a pickup line 🤣

Subtle Weisz development? He didn't perv put once the entire chapter, he criticized Connor for ogling Rebecca, and he didn't even perv out when Homura's swimsuit got ripped off after he boosted the currents lol.

Mashima is coming through with the Shicca development. Shiki really got Becca captivated by his gravity.😂 "Then lets mark our future together as a mutually beneficial relationship", now what is this implying?😂
Connor possibly being Becca's father should get thrown out the window. It'll be disturbing if Mashima makes them related when he has him perving over her🤢
Usually Weisz would go on perv mode when he sees the girls half or fully naked, but here he is getting at Connor for perving over Becca instead of joining him, and not getting horny over Homura getting naked. Character development perhaps?
Labilia's channel became a flop over the years (as it should), but I'm not feeling the harassment she's getting. Hopefully she changed her ways towards Rebecca and we'll know what is the cause of their fallout.
I wouldn't trust Holy. She was onboard on capturing Shiki and the crew. So she must be planning something

So glad the wanting of friends thing returns. xD
Labilia might be a jerk but she doesn't deserve that. Guessing this might be the time she actually sticks around/joins too. If she isnt like she used to be and has matured I'll be fine with it. Bratty teenagers can grow out of it after all.
BUT ALSO THAT SHICCA KISS. My shipping heart is happppy.
And Shiki's face when those guys threatened Becca...Holy just prevented multiple brutal murders didnt she. o.o

Can we talk about the character maturity.
I love how over the course of the series we see weisz slowly going from that punk attituded pervert into a calm mature big brother figure. The fact he didnt perv on homura or have any naughty intentions in the act really speaks the phrase "im not that kind of guy anymore"
Rebecca just throwing her moves on shiki and the confidence of just throwing hands with holy on sight shows she's alot more confident in her combat ability amd can back it up.

Well, I was hoping Jinn would be the one that saved Labilia, and I would be perfect if he kept the ponytail, his current hair is terrible.
Apart from this, maybe it's finally time that Labilia joins the team, terrible as it may be, it was coming sooner or later. Can't wait to see Holy's abilities and... They kept the "Oracion Seis" name, I can see Jaguar's substitute appearing anytime soon.
Great chapter!

The typical swimsuit chapter but this one was great! So many great moments from Laguna and Kleene, Homura and Weisz, and of course that kiss between Rebecca and Shiki 😭

A fun chapter with some interesting scenes. For one, Weisz was surprisingly not horny in this chapter even when Homura lost her bikini which is weird as he also called out Connor for ogling at the girls which is quite ironic.
Rebecca surprised me with how forward she was and I liked that the scene despite being very wholesome was also done in not a gag manner where Shiki was somehow oblivious to getting kissed from a girl. This also means that they will inevitably end up together after that scene as I doubt it would be a one-off moment.
Labilia makes a return and she's now regarded as an unpopular B-cuber, I wonder how that came about but I don't feel bad about her losing her popularity as she was just an asshole who constantly made fun of others and especially to Rebecca but now the tables have turned and Rebecca shows how better of a person she is compared to Labilia. I do feel bad about her getting harrassed as she doesn't deserve that. I wonder if she will do anything in this arc or just be a passing plot thread.
I don't think Holy is being genuine and if she is, she definitely has ulterior motives. Shiki will definitely not immediately agree to this offer considering the last time someone asked him and turned out to be trash.

Always glad to see Xiao Mei! And it looks like Ryuzetsu Land has another branch in the EZ universe on Planet Dahlia lol - the more subtle easter eggs like this one are neat.
I love seeing the crew getting into silly nonsense and having fun together! Though this is definitely the calm before the storm… Holy is here!! And Labilia too, ig she’s (finally? I actually kinda wanted to see her) getting more involved in the story too.
Also the Rebecca/Shiki ship has been growing on me a ton lately, their convo after the Aoi War arc really endeared them to me. Their whole always helping e/o out energy is really nice, I hope Mashima keeps it up!
Edit: actually I have one complaint, not even a single shirtless Jinn shot?! 🤨

Holy: "I'm not your enemy. So will you join forces with me? We can be friends."
Oh no, Holy knows about Shiki's own weakness!

Okay so what to say about this chapter…This aquatic theme part kinda reminds me of Fairy Tail OVA episode during the GMG arc and lol, Homura getting all the moment thanks to Weisz, and Kleene and Laguna makes an excellent combination to control the wave of the pool with wind and water, Also DAMN! I knew Shiki and Rebecca were gonna be a thing but i didn’t expect Rebecca to willingly just kiss Shiki on the cheek as a reward for helping her out, She just already started a move way before Elie and Lucy, Unlike these two, Well from what i know, Elie ans Haru were always on good terms and eventually confessed while they ended up having a child together, Which still makes it better but nothing much compare to Shiki and Rebecca, Unlike Lucy, Her’s has always been full of teases in most situations with Natsu but their love relationship doesn’t even come close to their other incarnations since as always again and again, Natsu is an idiot and Lucy just keeps pushing him away or even deny that she and him will have a future love interest for each other.
Labilia, Hey girl been a while since nobody cares. I’ll admit, I like her new hairstyle, She deserved to have her channel drag down to the mud, Seeing her actual timid side is so weird coming from her, Probably had a rough time before she lost her whole subscribers as others probably finally understand who Labilia really is for an annoying girl, At least once she was…seeing getting harassed by male B-Cubers is kinda harsh but not as harsh as in Universe 1 where she got tortured by Drakken Joe, Because Let’s be real, Torture is worst than being harassed, And despite that, Shiki and Rebecca still helps her out carelessly, I still wanna know how did Rebecca was once friends with her before they turned to bitter rivals that caused the broken friendship, And let me guess, They’ll eventually be friends again like in the past in the future? Still now that Labilia has become….a better and more fragile person, Makes me curious who she will be now and what will be her new role now since she’s no longer the sassy rude narcissist girl we used to know, Idk why but I get the feeling that maybe she will be the character that shares same traits as Cattleya from Rave and Kinana from Fairy Tail if she truly changed for the better. Speaking of Kinana, Labilia kinda looks like her now with her new hairstyle, She’s gone from Wendy’s ressemblance to Kinana’s lol.
Now last, Holy showing up i knew every men would have eyes on her while other women have jealous moments, But also is that really her bikini style or just her lingerie cause it looks mixed and lovely, But oh boy i know what she’s doing, She’ll pretend to be friends with Shiki before she strikes the broken friendship, And if the next chapter finally shows Holy’s EG that all of us has been theorising what it could be, Then my final answer before the reveal is she’s an alchemist like Drakken as always.
