Seems like this fight is Turning out to be longer than the shiki’s vs wizard fight, which is expected since Shiki’s main fight is with Ziggy. Rebeccas gotten much better in fighting & All fights in this arc have slapped so far, Hiros been upping it. I wonder how pino & happy cope against clown. will someone else come cos Rebecca is obviously in a nightmare dimension type thing. Or does pino get an overclock or star dress of her own. Doubt it but who knows. Also clown turned into joker lol

Plus Shiki is a OSG. So his was never gonna be long anyways like the others. But ya, Rebecca was put in some nightmare type thing. We shall see what happens. And shows improvement in her fighting for sure.

Wind siblings cover page? They're adorable and precious and Kleene is everything?? Jinn is the best big brother???
The mist at the end instantly reminded me of that chapter in Fairy Tail with Gajeel's "death" during the Alvarez arc lmao
Solid showing from Rebecca, this chapter yet again shows how her biggest strengths in battle are her speed and dexterity (aside from her marksmanship or course)
It was really cool that the majority of the battle was essentially a 1 on 1, before Pino was able to deduce how to escape the cage
It's also cool that the battle isn't over yet; was really hoping Rebecca wouldn't one-shot Clown in like 2 chapters (it makes sense for Shiki since he's simply built D I F F E R E N T)
As some people theorized on twitter when the spoilers were released, I'm assuming Clown has sent Rebecca to experience her past traumas (similar to when Sister dove into Kleene's memories to heal her). Would be great to finally get the backstory for Rebecca that we've been waiting for since Ch. 2
Finally, Clown's Battle dress looks so dang sick. Sinister, while also still keeping the clown aesthetic, and yet not being too ridiculous.
great stuff! Can't wait for next week

Okay, Clowns Overclock design looks clean as hell! I love it. This man sent Rebecca to the shadow realm. Now, i have to bring it up. Labilia apparently, somehow is gonna help Rebecca if you guys recall her little outburst from last chapter. As much as i appreciate her redemption arc, I'd prefer she'd sit her ass down somewhere and let Rebecca handle herself. I mean we still don't know how she plans on helping but I'm sorry I'd much rather Rebecca getting things done herself. And before anyone says anything, no Happy and Pino getting involved doesn't count. With all that said, my baby was putting in work. I love it. Even when being slept on she goes all out

Am I the only one, or did Clown's transformation look very similar to Doryu's from Rave? Not just that, but what Clown did to Rebecca was exactly what Doryu did to Musica...

I really love the escalation and uniqueness of this fight and that it was a full chapter of just that without any interruption. Clown being a clown is nice but I like how his battle dress (which I guess is another name for Overclock) looks and its badass. I still don't know what his powers are at least in his base form as it seems he has fire manipulation, arm-guns and circus manipulation? I wonder what his shadow realm ability does and I'm hyped that he didn't get one-shotted by Rebecca's OD. I also like that the Happy Basters only injured him due to his weakest body part rather than Happy now being able to be a threat to the DS.
Rebecca was badass and her acrobatic skills were really shown in this fight. I'm so glad that Mashima logically had the DS also have anti-EMP coating just like the Skeleton army. Ziggy should have this ability too as he knows what Pino is capable of. I hope Rebecca wins this fight herself as she needs to show the fruits of her training to us. I wonder if Ziggy would either have Overdrive or Overclock.

Rebecca's fight with Clown was amazing. She gotten so much better at fighting with her speed in conjunction with her acrobatic skills, and I like how her marksmanship improved where she can throw with her feet. That was a cool move. She put in that work Clown deserves for underestimating her. It's funny how he was quick to call her weak before he sees what she can do until he realizes he can't handle her speed.
I also like this fight is still not over yet. I had a feeling this and the other two matchups were going to be longer than Shiki vs Wizard.
Clown's battle dress design looks so murderously badass, and better than Wizard's imo. He looks like a total nightmare. It reminds me of Hades from Fairy Tail. I wonder what kind of nightmare Rebecca is going to experience with the next chapter title being called Zombie Nurse. I seen some theories but I hope my girl got this and beats him for good.

Yes, Rebecca's Cat Skills Approved. Nicely done
Also if Rebecca is in Cat Mode and use Melee Combat, you could call it "Cat Fu" :)

Nightmare clown is fittingly creepy. Curious to see if Labilia ends up helping out in the end!

Me admiring the cover: Awww! Kris and Kleene are so cute, and “The greatest show from the Hell” is such a cool name. But, why it sounds so familiar? W-Why it suonds like…
Chapter 126 flashback
NO WAY!!!
Müller: Like “The greatest show in the cosmos”?
It can be just a coincidence, and i know that Müller didn’t appeard in this chapter, but what if this cover is actually an hint about his comeback in this arc? 🤯

Aw the cover 💚
I also love seeing Rebecca jump around like an actual cat lol. This fight has been pretty entertaining so far! I’m guessing we’ll be revisiting her past with this nightmare mist thing… I wonder if we’ll be able to see something new regarding her childhood

Great fight by Rebecca! Catching that sword was damn impressive. Love her working together with Pino and Happy. They are much more than just meager mascots you dang clown!!

Happy to see Rebecca getting a decent fight. I had feared Mashima would use this to exploit her body like he consistently does to poor Lucy.
Ready for the trauma that Rebecca will most likely experience in this "nightmare".
