>Type X Sig Particle CHA detected
I mentioned it last thread but I'm pretty sure that's a scuffed translation. I assume シグ子チャ was a corruption of シグネチャー (signature) due to the interference of other Choujin X blood. Plus 子 can be read as ネ and is common in corrupted text. I look through a ton of particle names and hypothetical particle names but none of them have this weird naming scheme. Plus, while not all, most particles have 粒子 (particle) and not just 子. Granted, if it isn't a corruption, it would have to something as retarded-sounding as that. Odds are it'll never come up again anyway.

I have some other issues with the translation but it's all extremely minor who cares shit.

Like me, he misread 僕は彼の魂を待っているんだった as 僕は彼の魂を持っているんだった because the former one is just kind of weird. Plus the latter is a lot more dramatic.

>>284548411
The Japanese makes it clear that the 'unawakened state' and the 'human state' are the same thing. The opposite of the human state being a choujin state, I assume.

I wasn't in the threads when the reveals happened.
So Azuma regenerates back to a babby when something bad happens to him.
They said he was always living in that house alone, as a small child. How exactly did no one at school or neighbourhood ever notice?
Why couldn't he just write that he's living with old Queem loyalists pretending to be his real family while monitoring him? Would that contradict anything? It would make a lot more sense.

It said Azuma always refused to let Tokio come over for whatever reason, which is schizo moments as it turns out.

But having Queem loyalists would mean more cracks and eventual replacement of people. Plus Queem would have to trust them and he was kind of a fuckface tyrant. Besides, the document says he has a manager right there, whoever the fuck "Silk Garden" is.
>>
This chapter also explains why Tokio didn't visit his family. He was afraid he would bring ruin on them by desiring to see them.

I like how Ely and Azuma are both terrified of turning out like their parents, while slowly becoming like them.
Tokio and Palma are a polar opposite, they loved their family members so much, both of them developed mental issues trying to ensure they will be okay.

I mean it's an alternative history all together, there probably doesn't even is an emperor anymore.
Wouldn't the Showa era start somewhere during the Great Choujin war?

>>284549095
Having a little child live alone is way more suspicious, the story just decided that "no one ever noticed for 10+ years" which would never ever happen.
Queem had armies on his side, I don't buy for a sec that he'd have zero zealots.
>schizo moments
I think that was the main reason. Ishida's lust for the schizo reveals trumped over making sense.

>>284548001
This reminds me of a prediction i made ages ago, that the reason Tokio was so compatible with the xember was that the nature of his and zora's complexes were similar. I think this reinforces that, since it's a similar sense of guilt that Zora felt over the procession she was part of (where she awakened) being attacked. Plus their motivation of having to grow stronger to confront a looming threat which gave them their powers. I can't stop seeing more and more parallels between them.

Eh, that's definitely the case with Ely, but Azuma is the opposite I'd say.
Azuma for most of the story saw his "father" as a role model. It wasn't until he realized what he truly was that he went "fuck you I'm my own person and not just some tool."
>>
>>284549541
I'm talking about Queem, his real "father", of course.
>>
>>284549465
>was that the nature of his and zora's complexes were similar
Yeah, i've seen this theory several times and it's pretty much confirmed. By the way, this also explains why Palma and Batista are so compatible, too. All of them lost something dear.
>>
>>284549534
I feel he might break through. It was interesting that ending song Ishida chose for V11 was this song

Yeah I know I'm just splitting hairs.
Though I don't think Azuma is going down Queem's path, or at least he isn't anymore. The illusion is shattered and there is no going back to the way things used to be. That's kinda symbolically reflected in him losing his arm (cause finger gun = Queem and all that).
Though it's definitely implied >>284547923 that Azuma would have likely followed Queem's footsteps if not for Tokio's influence.

>>284549582

true, but i think it goes beyond that, to the regret of the loss stemming from knowing it could have been avoided if not for their own actions

>Azuma would have likely followed Queem's footsteps if not for Tokio's influence.
It's interesting that despite seemingly being a normie guy, Tokio heavily impacted Queem 2.0's development, gave Ely a clue how to approach Batista and saved the last vestige of Bill Morth. He deserves to be a brand new Choujin X.
>>
>>284549631
Yeah, he was the bomber, the necron fortress from the Sora flashback and the guy who was hitler but evil.
Also the mpreg guy.
>>
>>284549534
To be fair, he's taking it pretty well, considering everything. Also this would be a turning point for his life where he could really change
>>284549631
the stealth bomber was one of the forms queem could take. As explained in that chapter, he would design new weapons and take on their form.

Tokio in contrast, seems to end up separated from them and rather alone... except for Masamune (unless the scene is gonna end up being "Masamune finds him a lost cause and decides to leave him")

Probably a printing thing. Those navies/pinks/hard saturated colors don't print well at all in CMYK unless you have an expensive printer and decent paper. This >>284549026 looks like the colors we're turned down for the CMYK print and qhat they actually sent out to the printers.
If you ever see printed (cheaper) stuff with the greying out darker blues/purples it's because of this. Christmas time is a really good time for this because nativity scenes never come out good so often to see cheap church materials looking like that.

Reminds me of how he translated Azuma yelling "Otta!" as some sort of "Aaaaagh!" yell during the tower escape. I see it was fixed in the volume release, so I guess this will eventually be corrected as well.

Great chapter, but it was this moment where I wanted Tokio to finally drop this strong leader act and let out some bottled up emotions.
He hasn't cried since the timeskip, as far as I recall. This was a good opportunity to have him vent to the only person he can.

I think Tokio won't ever truly drop the act until the end. I expect him to keep placing heavier and heavier burdens onto himself until he collapses under the pressure. The Tower arc basically went out of its way to parallel Sora and Tokio, and I think it's very likely that Tokio is going to develop the same self destructive messiah complex that she had
While Palma's sentiment was very sweet, I think her basically telling him "you saved me, which means that you and your actions have purpose" is going to reinforce his current mindset.
>>
>>284552796
It does seem like Palma is taking a far more direct approach to hook up with him compared to Vlad who simply orbited around Sora until the end at least. This can change things.
>>
>>284552701
>>284552796
Fair points. Personally, I prefer the "Messiah savior complex" reason over manipulation by Sato, though it makes sense with the background of chaos state.

I was expecting Palma to act as an intermediary in a conversation between Tokio and his dad, since he still seemed to be "conscious". Would have been cool if he gave him some final words of encouragement.

The Choujin X world is full of orphans, is fresh out of a series of wars, and is probably constantly under threat of choujin terrorism. I wouldn't be surprised if they have militaristic statutes in place even during times of peace. So yeah, people aren't gonna give one random kid too much attention, but he still probably has a cooperator inside the government.

You have to understand that Batista went around killing choujin for parts and distributed a mostly fatal drug, and Zora went around randomly passing her mark onto whoever walked by resulting in at least dozens of deaths, all of which no one did anything about. Hell, we learn from Tokio during the timeskip that a neighboring prefecture is an almost unlivable shithole where the only edible thing is natto. It's a matter of management resources and priorities.

What confuses me is that Zora seemed to fully understand what Azuma was, but she was also very nonchalant about it, and was willing to hand him over to Batista. And even Batista knew that there is actually more than one Queem clone, and heavily implies that some of them are in his possession.
This brings two questions to mind:
>why didn't Zora care about erasing Queem babies, vestiges of literally Hitler that might one day bring him back?
>how would Queem clones help Batista bring Hurtley to life?
It's a very silly thing, but I'm starting to think that the clones need to COMBINE somehow to bring back Queem, and perhaps one more was what Batista needed to meet the required number, which would perhaps help his research in bringing back the dead.
Also Zora calls Azuma『鉄の子』, which gained a different nuance when I realized that he's LITERALLY a Queem manpreg baby this might have been discussed already, but I'm not in the threads often, so pardon me.

Sora has iron powers that were passed to her from Queem. They even passed to Tokio too, it's what allows him to harden his feathers into a shield or a razor feather storm. She hates this part of herself, but it's still a part of her. She calls Azuma her child still, she has no idea about Queem clones.
It's just an unfortunate chain of events that obscured the truth.

She recognizes "Iron" as a 'wretched' part of herself; not as Queem. If she recognized it as Queem, you have to remember that she's a psycho who would immediately act on it. She probably hates it precisely because it reminds her of Queem.

>And even Batista knew that there is actually more than one Queem clone, and heavily implies that some of them are in his possession.
When was this, now?

>>284554863
Queem, for what it's worth, had far more technical smarts and abilities than Zora who was, well, just a me-smash Orc. He was able to create life and even disguise that fact to the life itself, repeatedly.

Chapter 34, he asks Zora to leave Azuma and Ely to him, she agrees to give him Azuma but not Ely. Batista then thinks that Iron is fine, even if it's just one more. Though I admit he might have been just talking about grafting powers, and maybe I'm just reading too much into it.

Honestly Palma being stuck with Copedepency.com over there spells pretty bad signs for her with two routes
>"Saviour Complex" Route aka Tokio takes away all her agency, she is not allowed to make any decisions anymore for "her own good" which could screw her in the long run (either she gets caught in the crossfire, or Tokio flips on her the moment she decides to stand for herself because "how dare she betray him? she said she'll be with him till the end")
>The "Dominant Hyena" route, aka Tokio leaves all decision-making to Palma while he takes a step back ("Palma is my new meaning, if she says so surely it would be correct")... Palma who is genuinely a poor judge of character and would end up making things worse
>>
>>284555753
I don't think either of these extremes fit current Tokio's character well at all. I really doubt he's going to become some sort of crazy yandere over Palma, and he already went through the follower route with Azuma.
>>
>>284555753
Palma is a switch. She can be a submissive little girl, she can be a tough dominatrix businesswoman. The ideal scenario is when they both support each other, switching roles as needed.
They kinda did this already during the poppy field arc. Unknowingly.

And then Sora went on a crusade to kill what she deemed needed to be killed, got exiled, started her own Tower of Mourning faction which they seem to have regularly had skirmishes with. Even when Yamato Mori went all out, it was hardly a clean sweep and they put up quite a fight; and that's after some infighting took care of each other.

I'd argue learning anatomy makes it worse. Power of stupid prevails here.

That said, this is where Sato's power would shine, since he can't help his opponent be unable to imagine raising, and he can self-hypnotize himself into raising.

Explains how Tokio can regenerate so well.

Nah, seriously just take indefinite hiatus or something

Tokio's decision to potentially sabotage the poppy field search in order to save her, then nearly kill himself in order to ensure she survives, proves to be one of the best he ever did in his life.

This Palma shit feels so forced given how tokio likes momo and doesnt even get nervous around palma.

>>284568831
Palma is a weird stalker

Palma is the only girl in the story he treats like a human being instead of a pair of tits on legs. He gets horny around her, he just keeps it to himself.
>>
>>284570795
The entire vibe between the thing between momo and Tokio was obviously never meant to be taken seriously. Like how Ely has a crush on Sandek, it's just there for play.
>>
>>284570827
>>284570828
Seeing how he just called momo his future wife. I doubt Palma wins
>>
>>284570861
Anon it's literally the same as Ely's crush on Sandek. It's not a matter of "winning" when Momo is fucking disgusted with his behaviour, and he gets a real development with another girl.
>>
>>284570878
Girls like when guys say weird shit. Besides after the arc when he carried her on his back she said he was strong. Thats a moment right there

I dunno anon, sounds like you're better off rooting for Simon

That was more of a big sister/sorta mentor character recognizing he's gotten stronger than her, and that he doesn't need her.

I just realized that one of the themes of the second Ice fight is that Sato trains his pupils in such a way they treat themselves as expendable tools. Momo was literally ready to sacrifice herself for victory there, treating the situation rationally since Tokio is stronger.

Tokio would've trauma dumped to anyone that showed up on that hill. He saved her because she's also a serum baby not for any alternative motive. They both use partial beastification so it makes sense that she was trained by him.

>>284570936
I dont think momo has ever seen Tokio as a brother. Thats simon

>>284568831
I know women are scary, but I don't think that quite stacks up to the other two.
>>
>>284570932
>I dunno anon, sounds like you're better off rooting for Simon
I'm unironically investing in Simon, I want him to be awkwardly there for Tokio and help him get through this.
It's possible we might get a revengelord Tokio route if he finds out about the culprits at the right moment and he might beat Nari to death bare-handed since she was clearly involved

For some reason, the whole word on Palma's sleeve only shows on the V8 illustration compilation from Ishida's Bussiness account.

Anon you don't understand that stories are written in a particular way for a particular reason. If it's Palma he opened up to and no one else, that's going to be important for the narrative. If it's Palma who got an absolutely ridiculous and very romantic intro with flying over Yamato Mori, that's going to be significant too.

People were already speculating last chapter that he will overwork himself to the point his clothes fall apart like in the prophecy

She turned out to be quite a heartless person in the end.
>>
>>284567000
You literally had the explanation during the battle - she realised that her heart was ripped out and such psychological trauma prevents her from regenerating it inside.
Same thing will apply to Azuma now most likely, if we also believe the explanation from Simon (IIRC)
>>
>>284568693
It's hard to have such moment when he was dead inside since he was 5 years old.
he will become the existential threat soon if they won't treat his psychological issues
>>
>>284576182
>Same thing will apply to Azuma now most likely, if we also believe the explanation from Simon (IIRC)
Consider Azuma's mental state, he might get it back comically via schizoing it back to reality
Totally not Tokio coping btw

>Ely - new Choujin X?
I wonder if Ely's parents were a bigger deal than the story would suggest, considering she managed to steal the mark without exploding.
>>284548091
I thought it was Sora's crown, but I guess not. Sora has a crown of thorns like Jesus, meanwhile Ely has a proper royal crown.
>>
>>284576689
Currently Ely is still riding on top of Sora's power. But there's the theory that her family is connected to Antitise.

>Palma is only 16
I thought she was in her early 20s with how she acted using medical knowledge

She grew up in a disaster zone and had no real childhood, most likely got her medical knowledge from Shishinegura. This is why in some aspects she seems to be younger or older than her age.

>>284578399
What the hell did Sato do to Tokio to make him 2/3 parts legs? Limb lengthening surgery?
>>
>>284578848
This is just the beginning. Tokio will probably be 3 meter tall by the end of this manga.
>>
>>284578848
he just grew because he was still in his growth phase (even though realistically he should have stopped growing by then)
