>>
>>281965087
yeah but they had to get rid of him anyways, his departure with Batista makes sense
>>
>>281963258
No, he's fun. He is extremely hateable, he loves bragging, his existence was long foreshadowed and his powers are over the top. He is the ideal final boss for this arc because he's the perfect opponent for Tokio to go all out.
>>
>>281962643
I can see her nipple.
>>
>>281965140
That doesn't change the fact that he's not a good character nor an investing villain/boss fight (that title still goes to HEARTista)
You look at that fight and only want it to get it over with in favor of actual interesting characters/events
>>
>>281962643
>one of her thoughts is that prophecies ruined her life
Damn
>>
>>281962496
Now you realize Sora could easily wreck the entire Yamato forces but held back because this power is only for slaying villains.
Wonder if Tokio will learn it by the end.
>>
>>281962576
So it is like a kaleidoscope. Eventually if the right sides align, you *may* be able to act.
>>
>>281965462
I wonder what the fuck even led to the development of this power
>inb4 Sora played a tabletop game when she was small
>>
I don't remember - why was her crown shattered? And will Tokio get a crown of his own?

Also in this weakened state Sora was still a menace. Imagine how strong young Sora was, before the drugs and the prophecies..
>>
>>281965539
She lost half the crown when Batista stole the Mark, it's been this way ever since. I dunno if Tokio only gets the naginata choujin slayer or not, but since this is Sora's last gambit, she probably indeed transferred her remaining powers to him.

This chapter makes it painfully obvious she went super easy on Yamato Mori and could easily retake the organization if she wanted. Nobody could lift a finger against her.
>>
I wonder how ishida will handle sora dying and tokio/azuma living.
>>
>>281965631
As long as the Mark persists, it doesn't matter.
Bottom line, Zombie Tokio.
>>
I love the fact Tokio appeared to like Zora and Zora herself also liked Tokio. I just hope the next chapter won't start with a Kaneki nugget panel.
>>
>>281962643
Sora's perky nips...

>I just hope the next chapter won't start with a Kaneki nugget panel.
It's not beating the sheer comedy of Kaneki's panel
>>
>>281965191
Well yeah, that's the purpose of Nue, to start new events.
>>
is the series good?
i was really excited for it when it came out but quickly got disinterested
>>
>>281965178
fakeout as in he's not the final boss of the arc or an actual threat, ishida made him goofy so that he's a kind of innocuous segue to the actual calamity
>>
>>281966472
It's obvious that he's not the Calamity, but he's a perfect final boss for this particular arc. Motherfucker has a Nue themed border around his megalomaniacal title, how can anyone hate this.

Former tg reader or not? I presume the former so
>Don't expect the same tone as TG (CX is lighter in tone)
>Ishida changed his storytelling style from tg; if TG was subjective with Ishida putting bits of himself in characters, CX is more from an outsider's pov (so if you find some moments not really as engaging/raw/rather sanitized in comparison to tg that's probably why)
>Slow start (prologue is 24 chapters... 4 volumes in) people would say it picks up around chapter 19 (volume 3); biggest filter would be chapter 2 due to tonal whiplash from chapter 1
>Main trio is pretty great
>Side cast is more compact than tg's, but tg's side cast still mogs it; aside from a few exceptions, the side cast of cx is either cool but popping in once in a blue moon (such as Ume and Ricardo), is there but you feel like making fun at the fans of said character for hoping because the character barely does anything (Simon...), or you wonder if Ishida forgot about them after their arc (Shiozaki during New Years Pic); kinda sucks if you wanna do any written content/analysis on side characters because you barely got any material to go with
>Aside from Sora, Batista (and maybe Hume depending on his story goes, especially since he wildcard now rather than villain) the villains roster of the main faction is kinda eh,
> World-building is better than tg's, though you might need to read the omake to fully appreciate it (weeb central has the volume versions of V1-9 and should update V10 contents in december probably)
>Art is done by him alone no assistants so expect some uncanny valley 3D assets standing out when you read, but ignoring that you get some good shit
>Schedule is irregular but this year Ishida is trying to go biweekly (thank god his weekly chapter chops from last year sucked, barely anything to digest)
>You may notice the .1 numbering, that's because Ishida releases chapters in parts (which will be united in volume version)
In the end it all depends on you and your taste
>>
>>281966487
I find it interesting it is the only thing in the setting that has no redeeming features.

>>281964694
There was never any hype whatsoever. CX reads like Naruto fanfiction from the mid 00s.

you know how did a way better job with a similar character?

Ryoko Kui, from Dungeon Meshi. I loved the Winged Lion, but he was far more developed. Although I don't mind Nue being the final boss of this arc before the Calamity begins ngl, I'm more than satisfied with Batista arc.
>>
>how did
who*

sorry
>>
>>281966906
They are completely different characters beyond being a living concept. Nue survives through the most selfish and dark emotions, Lion manipulates the most noble and pure.
>>
>>281964694
Bro this chappy they stood in the air, threw out some moves and got nuh-uhd instantly
It wasn't very dynamic
>>
>>281967111
Are there any manga like this where characters don't stop to literally explain what they're doing or seeing as it happens? A writer that's confident enough in their visual storytelling to just let that do the work instead of exposition?
>>
>>281964694
pretty much everything about the writing after Palma joined the crew has gotten pretty generic shonen-y. not blaming Palma I like her, that's just around where in the plot I feel things started getting a lot more predictable going forward

this was really lame man, this doesn't feel the same at all to the early chapters and fights
>>
>>281967338
but the conclusion to the fight itself was predictable, eventual setup for something down the line be damned the story in the moment as a whole went nowhere, if it had immediate ramifications instead of "aaand Azuma's unconscious and out of the fight, written off until later" it would've been way more interesting and original.

in all honesty it feels like Ishida's writing changed after he started working on Jack Jeanne 2
maybe he should take another big break, he might be burning himself out again

>>281967898
After he started working on JJ2, he wrote Azuma's insane arc as well as Tokio's fantastic talk no jutsu. And this demispace arc has been extremely solid too.

Because it didn't get how it works. In fact it shouldn't have been able to use the big brain move but the CX mark simply let's it do it.
