Now that we know every awakened human has some sort of power such as electricity or explosions (which a biological entity could be entirely capable of), is it too far fetched to say that someone from the bunker had the capability of mass psychological manipulation?
>>
>>287585194
Any attempt to settle is going to be short given that the land is dying. Pano will probably notify him about it and the next arc is going to be trying to stop the aliens or at least learn more about them, that is if things went well by the end of this arc.

>>287585388
Well, the Grius settlers were already intending to move before this shit with the Yazurist went down so travelling somewhere was already going to be a thing.
We'll probably get some sort of caravan arc before they decide to settle somewhere, and that is if the Grius folks even live long enough for that to happen as there's plenty of story turns that can stop that, Leon being a major one.
Ideally they'd look for a shelter like Jericho but given the state of the world beggars can't be choosers.

You are welcome to the family, just don't become a horned troll

>>287585513
Not really, horned adaptors are exceptionally strong but normal adaptors can have gimmicks too, see Pano's freezing or Yazur's bombs, it just doesn't seem to be all that common as most normal adaptors don't have them, or maybe they do but haven't developed them/know how to use them, Leon himself seemingly doesn't have any special power outside of being a family man.

Kinda meh, but it has consistently high views and really positive feedback on J+ which means it's safe from the axe so far.
If they wanted to axe this they would have done so long ago, right now we're in the phase where the manga picks up and is establishing itself, if the axe will come it will be much later if Otori fucks up royally and he pisses off readers to the point the suits axe it mid run.

Likely. Faia Panchi is 2016.

But I like MAD's 70% finished digital art look, it actually looks good probably because he uses minimalistic and empty backgrounds most of the time which do not clash with the simple art, whereas Fujimoto and Gege have assistants draw beautiful detailed backgrounds upon which their chicken scratch is overlaid, creating a visual dissonance.

It's just an indication that you need to be batshit in order to become an adaptor.
All adaptors thus far are mad in some way.

Pano is autistic

Binged the entire thing last week so this is the first chapter I’m caught up for.
I was a bit disappointed in how the tone shifted as soon as John got his powers, but it’s still a decent enough shonen. I’m tired of the sister showing up every five seconds though, we get it.
Bob and Leon are my favorite characters.

John's farmer background should absolutely play the role. They migrate, find a new place to live, then Leon shows up to ruin John's happiness.

I mean we joke about it but Mad has been full of "aura and hype moments" and there is some satisfaction seeing John go from a punk bitch to a genuine badass. Dandandan had that but now it's a long runner and keeps baiting controversy with NTR teasing and drawing out arcs with long side quest mid bosses for the rest of the cast to fight. That being said when Dandandan finally delivers it fucking DELIVERS

The theme is the same, but the tone shifted.
The story is much more streamlined and focused now, which can be a good thing, but it has basically become fight upon fight upon fight.
The earlier chapters relied more on the mystery of the world which was more intriguing, at least to me. It can still return to that, since a lot of things remain unknown, but it has definitely shifted toward something more battle focused.

>There hasn't been a single good moment in over a hundred chapters at this point
Considering we're in the 230s and Vamola's arc is a good cut off point since it ends at about the 110's here are a few cool moments we had:
>Title drop
>Hanako just fodderizing a bunch of guys who just manhandled Idol girl
>The blatant metaphor for sex when Okarun and Momo fought the Pharaoh
>The Heavy Metal Mikoshi
>Okarun, the cop and Serpo vs Unji
>Both balls back full power Okarun vs Unji
>Mongolian Death Worm vs Sharknado
>Evil Eye/Jiji vs the Smoke guy
All between ch 115 and 230. That being said one of the biggest failings of the book is that Tatsu keeps NTR baiting AND resetting Okarun and Momo's relationship, this entire amnesia arc has been DOGSHIT while the fights have been okay at best. It's been a lot of wheel spinning and it's tiring

One of the main strengths of the story in general is John becoming less depressed and more heroic. He has very gradual character development and we're seeing him grown into a proper hero.
Having good fights to go along with that just makes it better, but it'd be great even without them.

There are more fights, powerups, etc the further along you are in the story.
I wouldn't say the premise really changes, but it definitely gets more of an action angle.
I wouldn't say anything is uninspired, the last few chapters were amongst the best in the series so far.
It's similar to Tokyo Ghoul where Kaneki becomes a more competent fighter but the overall story stays the same, if I had to compare it to anything.

Given that those aliens dragged the corpses from Jericho, I think it's the dead adaptors who have a chance to come back. It's what make sense.
It will be nice to actually see them use their powers.
>>
>>287589843
We now the corpses get dragged away, so it's possible they're being used as fuel for the aliens and/or becoming aliens themselves.
The story has a very hopeful tone, the last chapter just reaffirmed this a bunch, so there's a chance she'll show up as an "alien" later and they can cleanse her.
Or she'll just stay a tulpa for when John Thunder has to become MAD Thunder.
Either way, I expect that giga nig alien that was teased after Jericho fell to be one of the dead characters.
>>
>>287590851
He is subconsciously holding himself back because he's still scared of what he can do and remorseful about what he has done.
The point is that he'll slowly build up his resolve until he can achieve a full transformation, probably against Leon or in the hive if/when they raid it.
In this fight we got him showing the will to actually fight and then getting one horn while still mostly human, we can expect a second horn either for the next big fight or at the end of this one, then probably a full transformation after that.
>>
>>287596508
It's why I'm always confused when people act like Leon isn't a threat anymore. He lost to a fully transformed John with no hesitation, just killer instinct. That's the most dangerous thing we've seen in action to date. There's a very reasonable possibility that Leon was Pano level and it just didn't look like it, even Pano lost to Yazur, who is going to be beaten by a still partially transformed John.

The threat of Leon isn't even directly related to if he can kill John, it's what he'll do to get revenge and/or ultimately kill John. He already mentioned Matilda so he's either considered sending somebody who was forced to cannibalize to fight John, or doing it to John himself so he goes insane.
He could easily blitz a few characters before he got killed by John anyway, do things like poison the food/capture people, etc. John is hardly infallible and even Pano already lost a fight. There's a lot more threatening things in this story than "can X beat John in a fight."

>Yazur, who is going to be beaten by a still partially transformed John
Why are you assuming that. The fight can go either way. Yazur can get even stronger. I think we will be getting the Pano x John x Alda vs Ayzur as we were promised. Otherwise why even wank Alda all this time.

They relied on it because it's the only thing humans can use against them. Regular humans are nowhere near Alda's level and they'll get wiped even if they had weapons that can open an alien's skull.
Whatever relevance the human characters have will probably be limited to their importance to the adapters and the emotional support they provide. Given how much importance is given to familial relations. Also rebuilding, since adapters can't breed.

I fucking love Leon

>>287617910
we are family on /a/ and leon is eternal
if it gets an anime, then we can have a discussion on if anime-onlies are family or not

Well i hope leon dies a pathetic death
