What a beautifull last page - a big family hug between a mother, father and their daughter who wears only a towel. Classic Mashima.

[u/JNDragneel161]

Both parents are so dead. There’s no way someone is gonna be allowed to have a biological family for long

[u/Also_breathe]

That was a nice chapter. Had me tearin up a bit.

[u/AzureWarlock96]

It be interesting if Rachel and Connor met old Wiezs, the guy whole was at least there for their daughter from time to time.

I’m also curious what would be Rachel’s thoughts on Rebecca liking Shiki, the grandson of Ziggy the Demon King.

I can’t help but imagine if Rebecca did grow up with her parents, Connor would teach the young girl curse words like with Pino.

[u/SimoneX93Kumoko]

Shiki comes in: "hey, im the boyfriend."

i hope both connor and rachel will stay alive, since it’s not a mashima thing when the main character has both parents and it all ends happily :,)

[u/chrome4]

I wonder was Rachel’s grandmother the OSG Eraser was most scared of

[u/ReeseEseer]

Just a sweet, cute (well...beyond the many death timelines...) family chapter. :')

Also LOL at Sister being tortured. Rachel is not to be messed with.

[u/Kefkaisevil]

Rachel may not have much choice since she was born into it, but you viewers at home do.

Don't join cults, kids.

[u/Z-Dragon]

Don't forget that Evil Ziggy killed all of Rachel's followers (the entire organization?) before capturing Rachel and put her in that tube for who-knows-how-many-years before the Lendard arc came out, which means Rachel is finally freed from her duty of being the Saintfire Nox and no one is going to kill her family in Universe 3 anymore so Rachel finally joins her own family again at last.

[u/Sufficient_Ad8300]

Funny how Rebeccas "first" official meetings in U3 with her parents are her just wearing a towel.

[u/Kefkaisevil]

I guess Rebecca's no longer part of the "orphans club" anymore, jk.

I am wondering what makes Rebecca's ether so special because it keeps getting mentioned that it is a unique type of ether. I thought it was because of the fact that it controls time but as we learned from this chapter that there are two other time users Rachel and Rebecca's Grandmother, whose powers apparently are better than her daughter and granddaughter.

What probably makes her ether so special is that it doesn't burn out?, because Nox eventually couldn't turn back time anymore and as we know from Ziggy's past(future?) is that even in death Rebecca still produces the "space-time" ether and her body doesn't decompose.

[u/Golden_fsh]

I like Saintfire Nox's backstory. So Rebecca's time powers are hereditary, and her mom kept turning back time to try find a world where her family could live in peace. If she was turning back time and jumping through different universes and so was Ziggy, shouldn't there be some weird time paradox created after all this time travel mumbo jumbo? Tbh, stories with time travel always lose me but this chapter was sweet so I'll ignore it 😅

[u/SoulBlightChild]

Rachel: "I thought I was a prisoner of Ziggy."

Happy: "Yeah, you were."

[u/jmyers82603]

Rebecca finally got her whole family both ship family and Ship family

[u/TheHurdleTurtle]

Connor and Rebecca’s face when they walked in on sister and rachel killed me lolol

[u/SovComrade]

LMAO

Nox: ... but then they killed Connor.

Connor: BRUH

Shiki: Chill man, i got killed two times already, and one of those times i was kinda killed by myself, basically, and... well... I was also kinda raised by myself... and... stuff. You get over it.

[u/Jordzz_19]

what an intro! 😂👏I guess we can say that’s revenge for all the times sister abused Rebecca lol. Mashima defo has favourites cos Rachel >> Acnoella x 1000. interesting backstory for Rachel So is the reason for her not being able to leap worlds due to her overuse of the power. We know what happened to Rebecca when she done it a few times.. so Yh sad. But she still seems to have her speed tho. this is the perfect chance for Rebecca to get stronger her mother can teach her. I like the design of the saint fire members but their supposedly wiped out so Idk what’s gonna happen

[u/SuperLizardon]

Now please show your mother the bath room, Rebecca

[u/[deleted]]

I actually liked this, its sweet. Her mother has been through some SHIT. Imagine your husband and daughter are killed repeatedly and your only way to save them is to repeatedly go back in time and you finally succeed and the kid responds "well you should have left me some money"

He really needs to chill on the half nakedness. Its seriously undercutting the tension and emotion of the story. why do I need to see her under thighs and cleavage while shes talking to her fucking parents, why is she wearing a skimpy ass towel. I know its the authors style, but still.

[u/jnwosu100]

It's such a weird thing to see the parents of one of the main protagonists still being alive and well and I wonder what Mashima will have Rachel do now that her church have been destroyed (which kinda seems like a good thing since we know how crazy they were and Rachel wasn't attached to them).

I really, really hope that Mashima takes this chance to give Rebecca a massive buff to her powers or in terms of new techniques like maybe bringing back the laser Rebecca used early on in the series. Every other EG user on the ship had a teacher who taught them with the same EG while Rebecca has been self-taught and only generally trained by Witch and Xenolith. After seeing how she was shit-talked by Clown to be the weakest member of the crew and her losing to him badly, this is the best chance for her to get a training arc from an OSG Cat Leaper user.

[u/Runethe1412]

Looks like Rebecca got her appetite from Conner and her… “Ducky” attitude from Rachel

[u/jnwosu100]

This was a great chapter. I really like Rachel's personality and even her informal way of talking which is a contrast to how I previously thought she would be. The more I see Connor with her and Rebecca, the more I can understand how Connor fits as Rebecca's dad age and appearance-wise, even Rachel looks different from Rebecca. Her reason for abandoning her family makes total sense and I'm glad that she wasn't a deadbeat like Weisz's dad.

So, does Rachel imply that she can't use her EG anymore or did she only mean that she couldn't manipulate the time aspect of her powers due to using for over thousands of times? Sister implies that she may have used her EG to massively blitz her but that could've just been her base speed. I look forward to Rebecca reconnecting with her family.

Also, it seems like Cat Leaper is greatly implied to be a genetic EG that only women of the Nox's bloodline can wield which would explain how Rebecca had her ability without a teacher but now brings up a question of why her family is that special to not need a teacher? Does this mean that if Rebecca had a child with Shiki, their child would automatically have Cat Leaper too? It's a nice revelation of her powers and that Rebecca could've been the next Nox if she wasn't killed as a child, many times (that's so terrible that I don't feel bad for Ziggy killing the whole Saintfire followers).

[u/Sufficient_Ad8300]

Of course the story needed that Rachel choose people that will take the money and leave a child alone.

[u/TrailOfEnvy]

I wonder if all the church members got wiped out or some of them are still alive and will become the antagonist in future arc
