Well we already learned about accepted human trafficking and slavery in the super special ore’s home country. It’s not much of a stretch to think those places also have gross elites that like to watch slaves kill each other. This world was always a shithole.

Production IG or anyone of its sister studio needs to adapt MAD. It scratches the attack on titan itch, and i think a well adapted MAD anime could absorb those audience and become stupid popular.

Thx mate.
I enjoyed the flashback. It reinforced the theme of family that's been present so far and showed that true loss comes from losing those around you. It was also nice seeing more of the world before the fall.
The fight itself was whatever. It served to showcase Alda's power and that's it. I'm more interested in the fallout of this arc, specifically how John is doing right now and how safe the survivors are. I still don't think they are going to make it.

>>
>>287292220
NTA but you just reminded me to watch the trailer for Sekiro because I forgot to when it dropped, and yeah that is pretty much exactly what I'd want for MAD. As long as it's in the hands of an experienced team they could recreate the scratchy artstyle in motion pretty well, but ideally I'd just get that same team of animators to take on MAD as their next project.
Although, I don't know about anyone else, but part of me would quite like to see it animated in black and white. This >>287292407 would probably work even better, but it still has desaturated, flat colours.
>>
>>287292100

MAD and Make the Exorcist Fall in Love could be Jump+ next big hit if the anime adaptation is phenonemal.

Or his mom got fucked by an alien. Keep in mind we haven't seen anything of their upper ranks and that one time it looked humanoid.
If Alda is a half-breed and can transform without needing to eat an alien, may, the OC stonks will fly through the roof.
>>
The world before the alien's came is very interesting to me. There was an advanced technological society, with laser rifles and spaceships (iirc), and the common citizenry had good standards of living, could enjoy leisurely activities in what looked like safe and clean public spaces. John sat and played video games in his room like I do. But then either in the same country or the next country over, there was a whole slave society with it's own Roman colosseum where slaves fought to the death for the public's entertainment. Are these people humans who have settled on another planet? Are they aliens and the Rome similarities are all just a coincidence? There are a lot more questions to answer, but Otori might not ever address any of them. None of it is really relevant to the story now anyway.

I'd agree with you, but it can't all just be random nonsense. It always works best when the worldbuilding is planned out consistently in advance, and then revealed to the reader in small bits at a time. You (the reader) don't necessarily need to see the full picture, but it's good practice as a writer to have a solid idea of the full picture before writing your story. It's still too early to really say anything about it, but I'm intrigued.

Yazur already got his backstory, he was a child slave who got mindbroken and became an Aldafag to cope with the misery of his existence.
In that sense Gaku's story really does tie a lot of things together, Alda was Yazur's personal salvation.
>>287293401
The humor is very on point and regardless of what people say about Ohtori's chicken scratches his style is very expressive and he's pretty good at conveying emotions

So it's John, Alda and Pano vs Yazur? How strong is that motherfucker is we need 3 of the strongest good guys in the manga to deal with him.

Berserk assimilators are apparently a big deal, and John's team is actually pretty out of shape so even with John MADDEN haxx it's going to be a close fight.

Adaptors can't have kids, or at leat not with normal humans, maybe they can if both parents are adaptors
>>
>>287293816
Given that Jericho had a female adaptor at some point and they kept doing experiments. They most likely tried it before.
Besides it makes the survival of non-adaptors even more pivotal. Adaptors are strong and necessary for survival but they are also a genetic deadend.
>>
>>287291799
Thanks, anon. Didn't have a Spartacus/Gladiator flashback on my bingo card, but it was thoroughly kino. Nice to see the subplot about his origins emerge, since that hopefully moves Alda out of the immediate death zone. The manga continues to be MAD entertaining, after a relatively slow beginning.

Ayy lmaos attacked the planet, but they didn't come into existence at that moment. They obviously existed before that. We don't even know why they attacked. Maybe that wasn't an accident and Alda is related to that. Keep reading the adventures of John Mad.

Copium. Early part 2 was just Asa walking around. Late part 2 was pure shit only occasionally salvaged by a good background done by assistants. MAD's art is all about character action and great paneling, never relying on backgrounds to rescue it, there aren't any most of the time.

That's the point retard, learn to read. MAD was getting almost a million views in 2025 already. Stop posting and embarrassing yourself.

I will just say it but i don't think Luo will be with the John Gang for any more than an arc or two. The very fact that a womaniser character like Oscar exists is why i think she will eventually end up being with the Leon Gang. I got no evidence to support my theory but i think thats what will happen eventually.
>>
>>287317940
i honestly don't see her breaking away from alda unless alda does something that disrupts her perception of him and in that case she'll either try to kill him or snitch to leon

Man vs alien? What step in conflict theory is this?
>>
>>287318299
We need an anime advert for the manga like Heavenly Delusion and Dungeon meshi got. And recently Tower Dungeon.
>>
>>287317940
Luo likes Alda because he is super cool, Oscar is the total opposite of cool

This and Centuria too. They finally started to advertise stuff that is clearly popular on their digital platform they set up to find new stuff but give literally 0 publicity to.

Kino PV by the way.

She likes him because he's hot. And so is oscar. I dont doubt he can manupulate her somehow.

Nah I don't think she is going to betray them. Every group so far has 4 or 5 adaptators. With Luo grius has 4 powerhouses. I think Leon will get more people who hates John on his team

I think it's some other planet populated by human colonists. And with fairly high standards of living too. There was a singular exception and it's the North Korea tier country with special minerals used for laser weaponry. I guarantee we have places on our planet with gladiator fights right now too.

you should compare MAD to Fire Punch, I started reading MAD after CSM ended and my first impression was that it's heavily influenced by Fire Punch
>>
>>287316762
I just hope we see her in more flashbacks, or better yet, more of John's schizophrenic episodes.

I need context on how is this the ending of CSM. I thought part 1 was the actual ending and part 2 was some kind of spinoff and that's why I didn't bother with it.
