I missed the thread, can we have another one?
>>283496513If enough people other than you and me are here for it.
I want the outcome where Elstri and Helem go back to the Palace and Diana is sitting on the King's lap because Lukas brought Julians group there. Actual 5D chess.
>>283496513Well, I am here too, so... what do you guys think of evil women? Personally, I am indifferent.
>>283496745Case by case basis.
>>283496740I want this as well, but not now. There are other places to explore first (Zana's village, the western kingdom, the domains of other gods, et cetera). Going straight to the palace would be missed oportunity desu
>>283496513Altus being a genuinely good guy who happens to be surrounded by evil, psychotic bitches he loathes was not something I expectedA surprise to be sure, but a welcome one
>>283496960You can thank Helem for that.
>>283496513So did I so yes, I’ll allow it.
Based, but this will surely come back to bite you.
>>283496960I wonder if Angvall will follow the same path... but no, I think Helem specifically made her to be just another evil woman, because it is more fun that way.
>>283497178New Angvall eats babies
>>283496513Let me just say Elstri is beyond drop dead gorgeous and an amazing villainess Helem is of course also beyond beautiful and a great villainess
>>283496745Depends on their writing, I guess. So far, Helem has been a nicely written evil woman.>>283496513Same.
>>283497178My estimation is that Amber will be a loyal hound that kills whatever her master tells her to, no questions asked. I think it will be a very interesting dynamic if both her and Altus end up being reversals of their original bodies, who also end up being at odds with each other just like in life, but with their positions reversed compared to Angvall vs Arkos>Be Altus>Hate violence and fighting, but have to fight people to survive>Absolutely HATES every single person in his party (except for the maid probably) for being unhinged lunatics and psychos.>Feels empathy for the people he's supposed to be fighting to the point he's genuinely afraid of their scorn>Will get possessed by Arkos' soul when he's fighting Julian because he's REALLY pissed off at Julian>Be Amber>Cold, uncaring hound that will follow her master's orders, no questions asked>Helem wants a guy dead, he's fucking dead>Doesn't really give a fuck about anyone or anything>Also I'm betting Helem will use her for necrophilliac sex because why the fuck wouldn't she, not like it would be the worst thing she's done so far>Will most likely get possessed by Angvall's soul when she's about to kill Diana and/or Titi and will get fucking PISSED at Elstri and Helem for the current situation
>>283497395Elstri can be saved (as shown when she cared for the dead hobo). It's the big titty gof gf that is ruining her soul.
>>283497468I agree with your observations. I also think that's gonna be Amber's fate.
>>283496745I like them but only when they're also intelligent. Elstri and Helem definitely don't qualify.
>>283497855elstri can be saved because she does evil shit to try and prevent the king's death, the one person she gives a shit about.helem can't because she does evil shit for shits and giggles.
>>283497149We have Hell in Centuria?! Maybe the nun witch was a real nun, after all.
>>283498115The idea of Hell, at the very least.
>>283498115>>283498130we've seen one gift already that directly scales to the sins/bad karma of the target.though I wouldn't be surprised if the twist is that the only afterlife anyone gets is this god or that claiming their soul and people who never made a pact or inherited any gifts get nothing
This looks interesting. What is this about ?
>>283498115Can’t wait to get more of her in flashbacks
>>283498220Fuck off we're full
>>283498220The premise is that of Fujimoto's Nayuta of the End: a girl will one day destroy the world/kingdom, and the only protector she has against people who want her killed is her "brother", who is the protagonist. The rest can be basically reduced to slaves, monsters, gods, and I guess evil women.
>>283498729>the one man army>the mud zombie >the edgy OC
>>283496745>>283496767this, Helem ain't it
>>283496513>>283496960>>283497468As almost deliberately meme shonen as this can get, I think the mud zombie reborn golems having the possibility that SEXLEM's programming can be overwritten by past-self or by morality is basically a way to allow talk no jutsu to be a real possibility of victory.
>>283498857Give some examples.
This manga is quickly becoming the next csm
Altus stroke a nerve here, what do you think happened to helem, at the very least she wasn't like this in the flashback since she cared a lot about the queen not hating her
>>283500001In terms of?
>>283500014Drop in quality
>>283500005Something something family, and she doesn't think people actually care that much about their relatives but are obligated to act that way, which means MAYBE she can learn a lesson about the actual value of a family by choice before she dies.At some point she stopped giving a shit about other people's opinions as long as it didn't directly put her in danger. So she's fine with the queen hating her as long as she doesn't have an excuse to have her executed, and she cares even less about what people who aren't a threat to her think of her, because she knows there's no way of pleasing the queen and no point in pleasing anyone unless she just personally wants to (and the number of those people other than herself is probably very low or zero right now) and therefore she's usually just doing what she wants to do.Of course, this could all just be in my head. I've predicted things right before, but I've also been wrong plenty of times. It's just that the times I was right are easier for me to remember right now.
I remember last week when anons were saying that Helem has never done anything actually evil
I apologize for saying Altus was unnecesarry and wanting him dead, now he's one of my favorites and I hope he gets a quiet life with Zira after everything ends and he destroys Arkos' soul so he is fully free.>>283496745I want to dominate them.
>>283498220Evil women
Do you think Helem programmed Lacrima with some of her own rape tendencies, and that's why she tried to force herself on Julian?
>>283500639Well, she hadn't. But she's quickly spiraling into becoming a power rangers villain
at the rate she's going we're going to have an entire nation of dissatisfied undead all going AWOL at the same time
Elstri and Helem are essentially an evil Team Rocket bumbling their way across the kingdom and collecting pokemon(mud zombies) in pursuit of Pikachu(Diana)
>>283496513there is no way helem is not going to die horribly like getting gang raped by all her mud clone or something
>>283500770Evil yuri is insanely hot >>283497855I wouldn’t say ruining her soul Elstri is just able to commit beyond what most couldn’t or don’t have the guts for A bloody crusade to wipe out the anti christ basically
>>283499090>past-self or by moralityyou speedread the Arkos chapters, right?
>>283503084maybe he means Amber/Angvall but Angvall was relatively weak, they can probably just knock Amber unconscious and figure it out after the fight
We live in the age of up ndead waifus.
>>283503112The way they talk about Angvall, she is supposed to be the strongest non-gifted in the realm. You'd think that'd make her Toji-tier, but she basically got her ass handed to her in all encounters except basic mooks.
>>283503183to be fair her gifted fights were against someone who can remotely blow up humans like baloons and 100 slaves in a trenchcoather backstory includes 1v1ing a gifted from the western country so maybe Amber will beat the shit out of Lakrima or the edgy bastard
Guys. Guys. Hear me out.I think the sexy evil woman might actually have to go this time.
>>283500639Anons are delusional. She is second to the Queen in evil deeds. And maybe even a worse mother to her MUDren.
>>283500639>>283503354This is really her first actually evil deed other than mouthing off, I wish she didn't do it because it's going to be hard to redeem her now although she's obviously been betrayed in the past by royal family which is why she has such a negative view of family compared to her younger self
>>283503312Lacrima will cute herself into Helem's wicked heart having her be recognized as her mud daughter which will redeem the evil woman.trust me, i am not delusional!
>>283503432>I wish she didn't do it because it's going to be hard to redeem her nowIs this the famed 'evil women lover' when the woman is actually just evil?
>>283503479I've never called myself an evil woman lover, I picked up this manga because of I saw one shot pictures of antagonist dykes near the start of the assassin arc, unsurprisingly her and Elstri are my favorite characters so if they could stick around until the end of the manga that would be ideal for me
>>283503479evil is a spectrum, people expected Helem to just say evil shit with a smug face, not to big boot cute boys in the face
>>283500639Helem will say "this reminds of the time I stomped those puppies into red paste, good times" and anons will go "uh, actually she just talked about being evil, she didn't actually do anything evil"
>>283503519yes why would there be a difference between talking about evil shit you've done and talking about evil shit you havent done?very smart anon, very smart.
>>283500639altus, kill this guy
>>283503518she literally creates slaves for a living, I don't know what people expected.
>>283496745I believe evil women look the best when they are annoyed, embarassed and frustrated with a big pregnant belly given to them by me.
>>283503607she hadnt really used them as slaves until now
>>283498766He's not that edgy, if anything he was incredibly accomodating to the main character's requests during battle. A real edgy OC would have killed way more people.
>>283503607She didn't choose her gift and to her they really are mudmen
>>283503622
>>283503607>slaves badamerican moment
>>283503444Either way, the poetic route is Helem meeting her end/conclusion by her own creations. Just like Arkos' death was him drowning where he was supposed to have the greatest advantage.
Helem reminds me og jybril where most anons love her for being "evil" until we got the prequel where we got to see her being evil
>>283503702her getting nuked by one of her mud puppets liberated by the power of love and >family would be the most predictable conclusionalmost certainly going to happen so i hope it's done well and she doesnt just start screaming incoherently
This author is so well written that it even gives us a coherent and sensible reason for lesbianism in her character.
All that Helem is guilty of is a little tomfoolery. I think everyone should forgive her.
>>283503872altus, blow this guy's nuts off
>>283496513Helem's power must be resurrecting them with opposite personality. There's no reason to make this guy docile, there's better way to piss off Arkos than this
>>283500001How? Beyond "evil women" I only see similarities with some character designs: Lacrima looks like Power, and Diana reminds me of Nayuta.
>>283503862>>283503517TOTALDYKEDEATH
>>283496513Is this another sleeper hit? I'm really aching for some dark fantasy right now.
>>283504025The only sleeper here is you buddy, get on the bandwagon.
>>283503872If you really think about it, Helem just gave Altus friendly advice. She's not to blame if he decided to follow through with it.
>>283500770For me, it's good women. Titi, specifically, inspired wonder even on Altus.
and you know what?after everything thus far, theres still people whod simp for helem?
>>283504287altus, boil this man's brain
Elstri - Lawful evil Helem - Chaotic evil Queen - Pure evil There is no justifications for what the Queen has done nor ordered She is a tyrant, a murderer of her own childrenElstri has every justification to kill essentially the antichrist of centuria Helem just believes in supreme choice, if she can do it, she will, if she can abuse violate or manipulate she will The Queen is going to be the primary antagonist at some point
>>283504309altus, step on this guy's balls
>>283504287Helem is a good girl who has been betrayed by family, when she finds a group of people who care about her like Elstri she'll return to her awkward good girl ways
Why do you all keep saying evil women? That's redundant.
>>283504468What about Titi?
>>283504468what the fuck is wrong with you?
>>283504468I know right? Seems kinda redundant, but I guess the fact they wear the evilness in their sleeves is worth pointing out, you know? Just like how the monster in monster girl is on the outside.
>>283504287"People" simp even for AI waifus. It's over.
>>283504497I read Chensoman.
>>283504691So does my mother. That's no excuse
>>283499445The gif is the example anon.
>>283504468The Queen is literally pure evil, change my mind
>>283504409>every justification
>>283496745I don’t like evil people
>>283504409There is literally no difference between how you described the queen and how you described Helem
>>283505040If you held the antichrist in your arms, for a fact and by God’s own divine message you know it’s the antichrist…Would you kill it?Doesn’t matter how, humanely, inhumanly
>>283497855Elstri got her 2nd chance after she got to leave safely after Angvall’s death, there shouldn’t be a third chance
>>283505084You’re right Helem was raised into a villain via the Queen’s hatred Helen wants revenge The Queen seems to just be entirely evil, no cause to her wickedness, she just is Where as Helem while a little naughty, wasn’t fully out of control until the Queen drove her to that
>>283505091Depends, did God himself tell me to leave the child alone?
>>283505091>for a factHer entire ego is based on the fact her predictions can be wrong.>Would you kill it?She doesn't care what it is or who's at risk besides the king.
>>283505127Oooo fun argument Regardless now we go passed religion and into collectivism vs individualism The lives of many or the life of one child Elstri is doing nothing wrong in
>>283505130I wouldn’t say Elstri has an “ego” she feels that she is in debt to the emperor for saving her life all those years ago Regardless of his orders she has decided to wage an inquisition
>>283505130>her predictions can be wrongIn case this isnt a typo, no they cant. They can be prevented with the use of Gifts, but they otherwise always come true.
>>283505142>Elstri is doing nothing wrong inShe disobeyed the supreme lord because she thinks she know better
>>283505091if you wanna talk "doesn't matter who dies if it's for the greater good", then the country is in the hands of a guy that doesn't ever do anything, his wife who's a psychopathic child murderer, and a bunch of royal children and knights who are apparently all deranged. anything that topples the royal family will eventually lead to a better outcome even if people die in the process.
>>283505159Ego as in sense of self, not pride or whatever.>>283505162That is functionally the same as being wrong. They aren't guaranteed to happen by causality or something.
>>283505125>Helen wants revengeFor what
>>283505091what has this so-called "god" done to prove that they aren't a demon deceiving me into damning my eternal soul by trying to do harm to the true savior or an otherwise innocent human child?
>>283505178If she does nothing they are guaranteed to happen. This is literally spelled out to Helem on the carriage thing, Gifts are whats needed to break the casualty.
>>283505183Being betrayed by her "family", she's related to the King
>>283505162>They can be prevented with the use of Gifts, but they otherwise always come true.Considering this specific prediction is literally centered on multiple gifted people, one of which already showed how he can alter her predictions, it's literally the same thing.
>>283505196If we are going to make stuff up then the only reason she was "betrayed" was because she killed Lacrima and tried to hide the fact by turning her into a clay puppet and got discovered. After all we have only her word about the queen being the culprit.
>>283505193Yeah? That doesn't change my point whatsoever. What she sees isn't set in stone and there isn't necessarily just one way to change things. Then you add the fact of her explicitly acting against the king's wishes and putting lots of his beloved citizens in danger, and she's just an unrelenting bitch.
>>283505196what the fuck kind of fanfiction are you writing? she is related to the royal family but the queen hating her is not why she's fucked upshe was already fantasizing about making mud puppet angvall right after the made mudcrima>>283505208what prediction did he alter? the only ones we're shown are the apocalypse and Titi lying down in a puddle of blood near Diana, which actually happened
>>283505241>what prediction did he alter? the only ones we're shown are the apocalypse and Titi lying down in a puddle of blood near Diana, which actually happenedHow the fuck did you miss the Supreme Lord altering the prediction Elstrid made about her dying by saving her life?That's literally the most important thing of her background.
>>283505257i thought you mean Julian my bad
>>283505286Julian doesn't appear in any prediction.I suggest you reread the manga before you continue.
>>283505171She is practically right which is the worst part Yes Diana is essentially the antichrist>>283505173No I noticed that when I finally read His wife is a very evil bitch He just wants to know why who or what scarred him and gave him the “gift” of immortality He’s probably oblivious to the actual politics of his kingdom at this point >>283505178Again nothing driving her personal desires to kill the child has to do with herself She feels indebted to the supreme lord emperor >>283505192Faith, a hell of a thing >>283505183Brother, you need to read more
>>283505493That's not the face of someone vowing revenge, that's the face of someone that is mildly inconvenienced by another evil woman.Literally the first time she says the queen hates her she's smiling and blushing.
>>283505493You're still not getting it. Her childhood was ruled by dread over her foreseen death. It not coming to pass completely changed her mentality and made her attached to the king. Elstri is who she is because her first prediction was changed.
>>283505619>not the face of someone vowing revenge Brother….>>283505660>her childhood was ruled by dread Correct, and the visions she see is the child will torch the kingdom and lead the coven
>>283505660Also whatever happened with Lukas' mother made her go full zealot.
>>283500676Altus' development has a lot of potential to expand the lore on the western border and the royal family. That is: if Zira brings Arkos' memories back.
>>283505749>BrotherIm not even sure what you're implying. She's making evil woman faces in that page because Lacrima being forced to betray the friends she finally made is the exact kind of suffering that gets her rocks off, nothing to do with the queen, it is explicitly stated multiple times that nobody in the palace gives a shit if Lacrima dies.
>>283505749She didn't care about the kid until much later.
>>283505800If you do not think she’s going to go after the Queen you are not understanding her character well in her flashback >>283505837True, she would have used it at some point and now with Elstri who actually is strategic, well who knows
>>283506010> queen is making me do some dumb shit> welp she hates me now> tall woman is hotThat's the entirety of her character in the flashback.We arent even shown that there are consequences from the queen hating her.Neither Elstri nor Helem have made any comment or plan that would indicate they want to fight the queen.
>>283506010I am interested in your fanfiction. Do you have an aooo account?
Cool Altus
>>283503183>You'd think that'd make her Toji-tier, but she basically got her ass handed to her in all encounters except basic mooks.Toji still had supernatural strength, he just didn't have access to the same power system most other JJK characters use. Angvall was a normal person in peak physical condition, which isn't that much of a boon against gifted characters wielding actual super powers.
>>283506089Woman moment at its finest >>283506229Lolz, we will see I think Elstri should personally coup the queen, a ruler cannot bow down to the masses It’s as the Greeks said, the masses are the savages in a cave fearful of the light which is knowledge and truth
>>283506702
>>283503622My king, it's time to stop posting. Elstri has set fire to another village yet again because of a prophecy she had.
what could possibly go wrong
>>283497855Elstri won't be saved, Helem will ultimately kill and resurrect her after Elstri realizes Helem holds all the power and her only goal so far has been amassing a gifted army.
>>283497855But is it worth it to be saved if she doesn't have a big titty goth gf?
>>283506766
>>283503183Not during NNN...
>>283497468It's possible she gave Amber the best approximation of Angvall's personality she could create so she can do the Lacrima betrayal scheme twice.
>>283506837She deserves the type of guidance that only motherhood can provide. I shall grant her that blessing.
WAITWAITWAITWAIT.So, if Lacrima is just a corpse brought back to life, does it mean she could have never had that child she wanted with Julian? I'VE BEEN DUPED!
So...did Titi and Julian ever have sexo during the 5 year time skip?
>>283509357No, you 12 year old idiot
>>283504440You literally have her lusting over Angval a couple pages later and hoping she dies so he can get her corpse. She was never "good".
>>283509235you're going to adopt a 95 years old woman?
>>283509467and buy her a pony
>>283507963Helem is just going to be "well, just look at this former dignified and loyal hero who is now my bodyguard/sex toy" while having amber giving her a sloppy kiss in front of Julian and Titi
>>283509785A proper mother would give a good spanking to such a misbehaving child first
>>283509899that just teaches her to trust nobody and be violent towards the people she loves
>>283497178I think Amber will be Waku Waku I only kill Strong People.
>>283509278That's something we do really not know at the moment. However, it seems that a "puppet" born through Helem's gift is more like a clone than just a reanimated corpse, the puppet part just being that they are forced to obey Helem's (or anyone else who has the authority over them) commands, even if they wouldn't want to themselves. Even if Helem uses dead matter and mud to create them, the end results seem to be biologically fully human as they breathe, eat, bleed and are otherwise indistinguishable from any ordinary human.
>>283504942More examples.Preferably ones that I don't think are trash.
>>283503910We're getting multiple threads for instead of just the one chapter dump?
>>283510329go fuck yourself
>>283497468>inb4 Julian and Titi succeed in awakening Angvall only for Helem to trample on her short-lived reunion by giving her the kill order right as she wraps them both in a heartfelt hug
This bitch is for sure a mud puppet, somehow
>>283510415It's not my fault she's a Char fangirl.That was who I think it was right?
>>283510493speedreader
>>283510427I don't think Angvall could kill Julian with a hug even if she wanted to.
>>283510329opinion discarded
>>283511308See >>283510515Or correct me if that's not not who I think she is.
>>283511371Yes. She was absolute peak in ZZ.
>>283500005evil women absolutely destroyed with facts and logic
>>283511416So I'm right about who she is.Also, I haven't watched ZZ yet.Or Zeta.I admit that my knowledge of her is based on incomplete and possibly inaccurate information, but from what I've read and been told about her, I don't like her. And part of it is that I think she was obsessed with Char, and I don't like that him. Then again, there are some evil women I like who like characters I don't like, but I know other stuff about them that makes me like them anyway.
>>283510919She probably can if his gift isn't active. Either way, I think he'd prefer that to Titi dying right beside him
>>283511618Go watch UC right now instead of spouting secondary opinions.
>>283511618you talk about yourself to much
>>283496513YOU ARE NO SON OF MINE
>>283511690The order in which I've seen the "main" UC stuff is Unicorn (because it was on Toonami) then I eventually watched the original show, then Char's Counterattack.And I saw 08th MS Team on my own time before the original show.And I have Stardust Memory and that movie that's like a sequel to Unicorn on Bluray, but haven't gotten around to watching them.Plus, I got into Gundam because of G Gundam and Wing.
>>283510284I don't believe Helem. REALcrima is alive.
>>283510493That's from when her family threw rocks at her after she made a mud puppet of the family pet, it's her super surprising sad backstory.
>text book daddy issues with a fragile egoHelem is officially pure rape bait now. One hundred men, maybe more.
Character chart.
Where the fuck are the mystery niggas? This is literally the last time we see them.
>>283509418Nothing wrong with that as a necromancer, it's not like she plotted her death
>>283496513I can't believe Titi mindbroke Altus! Is the weakest secretly the strongest?!
>>283510284>>283509278I like the theory that Helem got her gift through her parents and it's a weakened version of what it should be, it's really resurrection but as we've seen she's not very good at attaching the souls back to the body so a new one inhabits it which creates the Arkos situation. I feel like the strength of will the original owner possessed is what determines if their soul will linger around their reanimated body so I fully expect Angvall to resurface just like Arkos
>>283513800we've had half a chapter of family in cave and 2 chapters of evil women, we simply didnt have time to go back to the niggas yetim guessing the pov will switch back to the good guys next chapterit's still somewhat possible that Orthos is now actually two niggas in a trench coat
>>283514099Considering the battle is already over and all the parties have moved on, including Orthrus, while the mystery niggas are still MIA, I'm expecting to see them as Helem's zombies.
evil women are too muchi dont think i like them anymore
>>283514354
>>283513361More like she was raped at some point in the past
>>283504409Julian - lawful goodLacrima - neutral goodLucas - chaotic goodKing - true neutral
So which mud doll will be the one to inevitably rise up and kill Helem? Arkos, Lacrima or Angvall?Normally I'd guess Lacrima, but after this chapter I think Altus giving up control to Arkos to let him kill Helem would make sense too.
>>283515088They all could potentially have a part in Helem's eventual downfall, but right now it would probably be most poetic to have at least the final blow be delivered by Altus.
>>283510398A second thread is fine as long as there is discussion. On the other hand, /csm/ has 24h threads of pure waifufaggotry.
>>283515088I hope it's literally anyone else but Arkos, he should be a menacing entity Altus has to fight against. Besides, Arkos also has none of the family love bullshit almost everyone else has so it would be a complete waste of a conflict.Best case scenario either of the mud siblings.
>>283513924Volume 4 extra pages had a mention that a gifted one's personality and other traits do have an effect of some degree in how the gift manifests, in addition that it's possible to enhance the gift through training in some cases at least. It's totally possible that Helem herself does not really have an understanding of the real inner workings of her own gift, and a lack of training would only amplify that.
>>283516055That's interesting so it's possible she'll be able to train her power into full resurrection>>283515088No one is going to kill Helem but I'd certainly approve of Arkos going to kill Helem then at the last minute Altus makes him miss because even if he finds her disgusting, he doesn't want to kill people. It might humble Helem and it'll definitely be a shining moment for Altus
What if Helen is reanimated corpse herself whose her parents raised after original beloved daughter died but with time started to resent her so she killed them instead and stoped caring about family and love?
>>283516144Well we still don't really know if all mud dolls are connected to Helein in a way that if she dies they automatically die too or if they are completely alive new beings who only weakness is that they need to listen to her but can survive without her being alive.I suppose we gonna learn that at some point, it wouldn't surprise me if Julian was the deus ex machina who could give up on his collected lives 1 to 1 to grant such to mud puppets to help them survive the seperation from dead Helen.
>>283516269Helem really is the most interesting character in this manga because it's very easy to imagine her role in the story going 100 different ways due to have central her power has been so far and how it literally binds her to so many central characters. It's also possible she is able to seperate Diana from the Goat through resurrection/mud doll fuckery
>>283516342Her irredeemably evil personality does put a limit on it though.
>>283516570She didn't seem unredeemable in the Lacrima backstory we just got so depending on what more is revealed between her and the rest of the royal family there might be a path back from unredeemable evil woman to regular evil woman
>>283516055Spikes dude also claims that one's personality influences what gift one might make.Maybe if Helem wasnt such an edgy fucking nihilist she wouldve gotten the power to resurrect people for real.
>>283500005I imagined Helem’s backstory would have something to do with her mark, but no. Something probably happened to her family. And this “something” might have been Helem herself (she hates the idea of a family, after all, not an external someone)
>>283517275What?
>>283517983i swear it's the same guy replying fifteen timeshe at least finally got the name of the character right
>>283517983Helem is probably her own cause of being evil, is what I meant. Whatever backstory we get from her would be just like Arkos’.
It's not fair that evil women are treated better than evil men. Sometimes they're even treated better than good men. Why?
>>283518783milkers (¡enormes!)
>>283518783because most men have weak convictions and like evil women
>>283518783are they? it depends on how they're writtenmale or female the cartoonishly evil written villains are disliked almost universally, but entertaining kind of evil, like Helem here or Shogo from psycho pass do have a fanbase regardless of their sex
>>283518783Evil women deserve to be tied up and raped to death.
>>283517275>And this “something” might have been Helem herself (she hates the idea of a family, after all, not an external someone)It seems like she hates it now but the opposite seemed true in the flashback so I'm thinking whatever it was changed her
I hate all this "evil women" talk because it eats up so much discussion of Centuria. Fucking hell this chapter revealed some really surprising information. Helem has a lot less and a lot more control over her thralls than was previously known. Some of this shit is a future game changer but no waifufags have to circle jerk
>The most effective spies are those unaware they're spies at all. - ElstriThese words will come back to haunt her.
>>283519940What kind of new information? We still don’t even know whether the control over her dolls works remotely. Everything else comes from past chapters.
>>283520210>What kind of new information?She can control their bodies directly but can't override their will and her thralls also have no inherent loyalty or affection for her. Both of these are giant Chekov's Guns being set up alongside plot points like the original personality bubbling up to the surface. There is so much that can happen from this:>Helem going all in on brainwashing the Angvall zombie and Merc zombies to be slavishly loyal>Lacrima's body being forced to fight Julian and Co. while she's still aware> Altus's obvious incoming face turnHell just the fact that the villains are surrounded by an army of zombies made from people that hate her, who's current personality's loyalty is not guaranteed and their original personalities have a chance to pop up at any time is some obvious foreshadowing that would be a mistake if not capitalized on.
>>283496513this shit is easily the best jump series to come out in the past 3 years
>>283498115We have evil gods so there is a very high probability of hell
Helem in general does not feel like she'll stick around. The Yurifags are annoying because it's the same fucking joke every thread. >>283519940All we got is that the Mud dolls can't be reformed after they are made in terms of personality. The random gifted mercenaries might literally be mindless dolls and Atlus/ Amber might actually be made to mock/ simulate the old one. My guess is Amber is going to be slavishly devoted rather than Atlus who seems to have been made like Arkos, but without the pride and arrogence. The other thing to factor in is that Helem seems to have never actually had one of her puppets face her killer/ a loved one going by Atlus. I'm honestly going to guess that Helem is going to have Amber play like she remembers everyone.Also, aren't the villains going to the same country as Julian and Co? They slipped across the border and are trying to avoid the King's troops. They're setting up another ambush it sounds like where Lacrima (who is bound to Titi) will be the primary attacker. Julian will most likely kill off the mud puppets and be driven into a rage at Angvall being descrated.
>>283519940altus, tie this guy's shoelaces together
>>283521089I don't think the dolls are all mindless, they've already gone over how they slowly develop personalities, but you are probably right with Amber being slavishly devoted. I'm hoping for Helem to get an ironic death where most of her dolls turn on her and tear her apart it's such an obvious perfect end for her
>>283521089>Helem in general does not feel like she'll stick aroundThe amount of cope for this is insane when she has a connection to almost every single character introduced in the manga so far and is set up to be with the main antagonist of the story in Elstri other than like the King and has a massive chekhovs gun the protags need to deal with
>>283521466Helem is quite literally an early antagonist. Elstri will have more staying power. Helem's whole themetic role is a false mother making slaves. Esltri is odd because she actually has a father-daughter relationship with the King. The rest of the characters are about their mother relationship. Helem is going to be killed by her "children". >>283521376By mindless I mean they likely are barebones and automaton like. Atlus and Amber seem to have actual thought put into them. Helem wanted Angvall as a sex slave ten years ago. I feel like the three werewolf / lycan brothers that Julian almost one-shotted are just going to be hollow with maybe the oldest having a twitch of emotion as his souls tries to rise or whatever.
>>283521659>Elstri's main foil might actually be Lukashuh
chad stance
>>283519353You can like evil women without having weak convictions. Simply commit domestic abuse the second they try to do something backhanded to you.
>>283520502We've talked about all that stuff too. It's been a thread and a half.
>>283521089>Also, aren't the villains going to the same country as Julian and Co? They're going back to the palace
>>283521659>Helem is quite literally an early antagonistWe're already a year into this story with plenty of development. The early antagonist was Arkos and even he's not out of the story. Helem has too much going for her and she's central to Elstri's current plans for her to be shoved out of the plot anytime soon. And given the nature of her power, it's entirely possible that her death would just result in some bizarre revival so she can still exist in the plot. Barring some real bullshit, she's here to stay.
>>283522228They are. I forgot, but it seems like a giant plot hole to go back with revived Angvall. The King seemed to like her and many people admired her. Feels like that would piss off a ton of people including the King after messing with his sons corpse. If we get another time skip rather than the corpse party going after them, bringing Diana's corpse back, Helem in her hubris bringing Diana back, and then anti-Christ shenigans. >>283522498Helem is likely going to die because her power is fucking boring. It cheapens every fucking encounter because then every fucking gifted is going to show back up. She's set-up Lacrima's betrayl (and likely inciting incident for Diana to go anti-Christ/ try to revive Diana who is literally her own blessing). She was fun, but the sooner she's gone the better.
>>283522632Whether she sticks around or not has nothing to do with your feelings anon. From a purely narrative standpoint she's pivotal to the current story. If you can't at least acknowledge that your just going to be frustrated going into the future. >It cheapens every fucking encounter because then every fucking gifted is going to show back upThat depends entirely on the writer. So far it's been working out great that she can bring people back from the dead purely for more Arkos, the ticking time-bomb that is Lacrima, and the drama of a revived Angvall. As far as abilities to revive the dead go, there's a lot going for Helem's ability than most other characters with comparable powers in manga.
>>283522731From a narrative stand point she's given the flags that she's going to get killed off by her own hubris or familial love. She's set-up plot elements and will leave the story being killed. She's not going to be an endgame villain, the Queen is most likely that. The constant resurrection is cheap. Everyone forsaw Angvall the moment she explained her power. Lacrima is a good twist, but she's overused and this is a shonen. Unless she's Orochimaru's her way into getting away with it because Yurifags threaten to kill the author she's gonna die. Most likely after Lacrima gets told to kill Diana or Titi. She's basically just setting up for a moment of catharsis when she gets betrayed by someone despite thinking herself as a puppet master, betrayed by her puppets because she doesn't understand her powers, or gets outplayed by the Queen.
>>283522843>she's given the flags that she's going to get killed off by her own hubris or familial love.I agree. That says nothing about when she'll get her comeuppance. >She's not going to be an endgame villain, the Queen is most likely that.That's debatable and you are pretending that there can't be multiple major threats in the endgame. >The constant resurrection is cheap.I disagree with your opinion. As stated, it's making the story richer even if she's not exactly breaking the mold. Angvall being resurrected doesn't need to be a huge twist, the nuance here is that the Amber persona is not Angvall so out the gate we are getting a new character out of this deal. Exactly like Atlus who is interesting because of the contrast with Arkos. There's just no cause for saying she'll die anytime soon. Even if she isn't endgame that could mean irl years of staying power since Elstri/Helem is the current axis against Julian. Elstri quite literally sucks without Helem providing the muscle.
>>283522843>she's overusedShe literally just got introduced and set up properly, evil lesbians are so evil and off putting they are clouding your judgement.Edo tensei lasted for an entire story and fueled an entire war, there's no real reason to think resurrection is a bad thing
>>283520750The Bugle Call?
>>283522843Her days as the biggest antagonist are numbered but that doesn't mean she won't still be around in a year or that her downfall will involve her dying. For now she allows Kuramori to have his cake and eat it too when it comes to killing off characters, particularly minor enemies. He cannot be looking forward to giving that up.
>>283522959>>283523042>I am bored of her and think she'll likely get killed off in the next 30 chapters>yurifags moan and gnash their teethI just want a different set of antagonists. The Palace should hopefully have the Witches squeal to the King and Queen leading to something. The mud people being everywhere is the bit that is boring. You seem to miss that. It has some narrative worth, but it's pretty fucking boring.
>>283523227>>I am bored of her and think she'll likely get killed off in the next 30 chaptersIts irrational to think her longevity has anything to do with your singular feelings and nothing objective within the story. That's all I've tried to communicate to you and I'm not interested if you think people that find her amusing are yurifags. She's an evil bitch and I hope she dies, but she's also super fun and integral to the story.
>>283523272Are you actually autistic? Did I strike such a nerve? Nigga I am saying what I feel and hope. It feels like she's not gonna be an end game antagonist and I hope she doesn't out stay her welcome. I like Elstri, Helem bores the fuck out of me. I don't think she's integral to the story, you can likely remove her from it and the story will continue. Her ability sounds like it'll continue after she dies.
>>283523326What nerve do you think got struck when it's just you being mad over a character in a story? It seems you just don't get that I've been refuting your constant assertion that she'll be exiting the story sooner rather than later. I base this on how she's locked into pretty much all the major plot threads and you base your own assertion on not liking her personally. I'm not sorry you don't like resurrection powers or lesbians, but she's going to be here for a lot longer than you'd like. >I don't think she's integral to the story, you can likely remove her from it and the story will continueYou are laughably wrong>Her ability sounds like it'll continue after she dies.That's not a guarantee and even if it works on her, it's likely she just comes back as a new person entirely. Like Pride from FMA. You know when he died? In the last 3 chapters of the manga. I'd suggest you buckle up for the Helem train anon.
>evil lesbians are so smug and unlikeable they cause seethe just by existingHow did they do it?
>>283523422>the Helem trainThat sounds like a euphemism.
>>283504409>Gets called out on her bitchdom>lashes outA real villain would've laughed manically and told him he was absolutely correct that they're an asshole. This just makes her look like an insecure child.
>>283523845They induce incel rage as yet more women who will never fuck them.
>i gave my most powerful puppet a sense of morality for the lulzi respect her insistence on tomfoolery
>>283524612That's what I was expecting. How do you be so much of a contrarian you willingly shoot yourself in the foot to hit someone else and yet still reel back from it?
>>283522843>overusedpeople have been saying she's overused since she made Altus, i dont get it
>>283522632>It cheapens every fucking encounter because then every fucking gifted is going to show back up.She can only do it once, only if she is there to get the coprse and even then they dont "come back" she just makes new characters with a similar power and design.And it's how we got Altus, one of the most interesting narrative threads in the story.I dont think she is the final villain or anything like that but you're talking like she's been throwing zombies at Julian for 40 chapters when the only mud puppet she ever used is Altus, who is just a completely different character from Arkos.
Lovable face.
Cant wait to learn what kind of evil women live in Rummir!
>>283526263Nah brother No one, not even another lesbian transactional relationship is betting Helem and Elstri Elstri is beyond cute with her inquisition Helem is beyond sexy with her lack of self control
>>283524612That's the problem with so many second-rate "villains" these days. They have too much ego and not enough maturity.
>>283522843Helem has like two more arcs in her IMO. One for the Angvall reveal and another for her reconning. The question is if those two arcs are back to back
>>283523227Lets be honest now that they're entranced in the series even if she's gone the threads are gonna be filled with her simps and yurifags whining
>>283527164Helem is currently traveling in the exact opposite direction from Julian and the others, unless something goes weird when they meet Lukas' contact, they are unlikely to meet for the whole of the Rummir arc.
>Helem mindbroke the schizos
Saw this art of Centuria's best woman, Helem!
>>283527470And? As I said she has like two arc in her before she's gone. And again it's not like those two arcs have to be back to back
>>283527524>>283527527Wtf maybe we are also her mud dolls...
>>283527543What im saying is that, while it's very likely that she's not going to survive the next time she meets Julian's party, arcs wise she has probably has at least one freebie before anything you described happens.
>>283527543>>283527578I think we should stop thinking about how she might die the next time she meets Julians party and instead think about how she can be humbled and survive until the end
>>283527524>>283527527The amount of evil is directly proportional to their breast size.
>>283527164Sounds about right. An arc or two to serve as a breather, expand the world and set up the next antagonists, then back to resolving the problem she poses. I disagree that she won't get her comeuppance in the same arc as Amber getting dealt with though. Her role as the #1 enemy ends with that, and if she stays on the chessboard afterwards it'll be a different game.At most I can see her turn up at the tail end of an arc and reveal Amber to an exhausted Julian, which leads into the next arc. But I wouldn't count that as two different Helem arcs.
>>283510656So why did seamommy not see Arkos as her grandchild?
For some reason I imagine Helem is going to be done in by the Queen. Like obviously Julian and the rest will defeat her/twart her plans, and once Helem slinks back to the castle this smiling bitch will be there talking about how Helem overstepped her boundaries or whatever and then stabs her in the throat.
I want Helem to suffer, but I don't want her to die. Just like all evil women, she just needs to be enslaved by a man for the rest of her life.
>>283527786It's quite likely the King has displeased her. That's why she was looking for a new person to give her blessing to at the start of the story. She seems to have had enough interest in Arkos to hold onto his soul.
>>283527786Sea mom is a living mom and therefore evil, the supreme lord became a good boy so she dislikes him and wants Diana to nuke the whole kingdom
>>283527793But Helem doesn't have any plans and she's not going to slink back to the castle in that sense. She's a minion of and loyal to Elstri, if Elstri's group is defeated as a whole then they will presumably slink back to the castle together and face collective punishment. Although it's very possible the Kings fondness for Elstri means she won't be punished as harshly and Helem will be made an example of
Amber running into Angvall's statue (Lacrima said there is one in the capital) could be very interesting identity crisis stuff i am looking forward to. Especially if she's recognized while walking around wearing just a cape with her full pussy to the wind.
>>283527793Probably not.The flashback showed that she had interest in reviving one of her dead kids, even if ultimately she ended up ignoring the new Lacrima since she was a completely different person.But we know that Arkos is actually still there inside of Altus so it's a different story, her reaction might be a lot more positive.
Fuck evil women. I am reading this manga since chapter 1 released for the monsters. This arc only had the wolf-brothers and Barra. Rummir better have many of them.
>>283528464we've been stuck on the barren wastes for so long, as soon as they put foot inside a forest we'll probably get monsters and backstory for Lukas' second gift
>>283528464Peak of this manga so far has been assassination plot arc Elstri was just amazingly cold in that whole thing
>>283528464anon, that is an evil woman
>>283527527I love this art both Helem and Lacrima look the best they've ever looked
>>283505173The ironic twist at the end of the manga will be Elstri realizing the kingdom got destroyed because everyone inside, including herself, is a fucking evil psycopath and every action she made only piled on top of their sins.
>>283516629If it is as some anons have theorized, and Helem ressurected herself, this means she is not the same person we saw in the flashback.
>csmfagsew
>>283530865mud puppets dont keep their memories
>>283530865That's interesting, in that case I would love if we got the "original" Helem back in the future
>>283530865It could be funny if Helem learned that she also was just someone else's fake person, but aside from that, one surprise mud puppet is enough.
Are the witches actually going to be evil too or is this just going to be a game of politics? We need to cover Diana's letter and the motivations for those eldritch gift givers.
>>283527524>>283527527These are good.She still needs more porn though.
>>283497422This drawing destroyed so many lives
>>283527527>ai slop
>>283533575Doesn't look AI
Female characters in Centuria are evil in proportion to how large their breasts are. This means Diana is currently the goodest girl in the series, but once she hits puberty, she probably will turn into the dark child of prophecy
>>283533596NTA, but the skulls in the background look very much something like an AI would hallucinate

>>283534833if a centuria anime doesnt end on pic related they're not even trying

>>283536087is JC studio still alive?
>>283533882If anything, I think these last chapters have picked the interest of some skilled artists because of helem
>>283535955What?
See you guys in two weeks
>>283538394Okay.
Elstri gang
>>283510656I hope Helem's death will be as satisfying as Arkos'.
>>283541004Imagine altus doing it as he says >Are you still having fun?
>>283527724Angvall was the exception
>>283541004So she'll suffer humilation but ultimately still be alive? I like your thinking
>>283541777She was holding it in for Amber.
>>283541004Arkos' death was retroactively ruined by coming back.
>>283544795>ruined
>>283547057
>>283544795Arkos didn't come back
>>283547298He showed up after dying when his soul should have passed on. He came back into the story.
>>283547355Arkos is dead and that hasn't changed.
>>283547394And it doesn't matter because he still gets to be present.
>>283547394Dead but..>Still communicates with characters>Still able to control his body in short bursts>Still destroyed 2 witches and forced them to retreat
>>283547355>when his soul should have passed onto where?
>>283548153I assume hell based on the witch's power counting his sins.
>>283548188why would his soul pass on to hell after death rather than be trapped inside his corpse?
>>283548221>>283497149
>>283548188The Witch didn't kill him. She fled wondering how the fuck her flames that burn sins got so strong. Arkos-Atlus might be unique in that his soul can come back due to his gift being strong and Arkos being unhinged/ killed by a Blessed individual. Angvall-Amber might just be a sex slave clone based on Angvall. This is honestly the depressing twist. Angvall won't come back because she never had a gift and her soul can't "rise".
>>283548977I meant that sins existing as a magic mechanic could mean there is spiritual judgement in this world and a hell by extension.
>>283544795Altus is much better than Arkos
>>283497468Arkos' soul is clearly being helped by Sea Mommy, how is Angvall's soul supposed to take over Amber?
>>283544795He got humbled so badly he's still seething 5 years later.
>>283544795I just didn't like that 30 seconds thing. Altus should have defeated the witches through cunning, not power. I wonder how Kuramori will alleviate that plot point.
>>283551661>Altus should have defeated the witches through cunning, not powerThat was literally his first day fighting.Arkos himself says that he doesn't know how to use his powers.
>>283497280Would be kinda based if Angval literally threw someone at Julian as a weapon
>>283550628>Arkos' soul is clearly being helped by Sea Mommy>...to kill Julian and Diana[X] DoubtI think it just heavily depends on the wills of the original owner as well as the current host. Something tells me Angvall won't be able to pull the same 1 possession/day shit as Arkos though, not because of a lack of determination or gift but rather due to Amber's personality.
>>283552294It would be kind of bland to have the resurfacing soul thing on both characters, i hope Angvall's influence over Amber is simply due to the latter hearing and asking about the former.She was a war hero, there are statues of her.Obviously this depends on whatever personality Helem gave her during character creation.
>>283552500>>283552294>>283550628It seems obvious enough Helems power is resurrection she just doesn't understand it fully
