How would you guys rank the guardians? I'll start Will>Cornelia>Irma>Hay Lin>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>Tarannee=Caleb
>>152948399
>>152948428>>152948413I'm a big Hay Lin fan compared to most people, Cornelia is an odd one for me, when she's at her best I really like her but she has some of the lowest lows. Taranee is my least favorite and has the lowest lows.

>>152948603
>>152948618
>>152948640Ah yes, this nugget of a plot point.I really don't like how Caleb(and Luba thanks to his focus) cause the narrative of the Nerissa Arc to be so jumbled
>>152948672
>>152948683
>>152948705That line from Yan Lin is pretty rich.Especially since the Oracle's wisdom is probably at its worst in this arc.

>>152949831>>152949778Wait, all of a sudden she's redeemed and good? huh?
>>152949831End of Issue 18>ImmortalityI think they just mean eternal life in this case....I'm getting a bit tired of the writers blatantly using the Oracle's 'mysterious nature as an excuse to put off plot developments. I had forgotten how much they did it during this arc in particular.
>>152949790Nice joke.>>152949831Am I the only one who feel that the cat lady got she deserved.
>>152949886>you couldn't be distracted from higher duties so we erased your memories>all you did during that period of time was goofing off and looking for perspective dates>now your memory is back, now you can save the guyI fail to see what the whole thing accomplished other than letting the old lady turn hot (and more dangerous) again.
>>152949886>>152949831Is Luba redeemed in your eyes, anons?
>>152949981>>152949906>>152949860They went way too hard on Luba's downfall and doubling down, it was way to extended, annoying at points and takes up a lot of the arc, and the supposed redemption is such a short and done one by comparison. Luba's realization and trial should have been way earlier. We are halfway through the Nerissa Arc at this point.
>>152949886Why Oracle and the council suck so much?>>152949932How is she hot to you anon?
>>152950042Hotter when compared to her granny form
>>152949725>Whatever, he'll endure or whatever. Damn, I'm so smart!T. Oracle
If you were the girls, what questions would you ask the Oracle?
>>152950042NTA but Nerissa has this very hot vibe of bitchy evil queen, especially with her beautiful long hair and long dress. Villainous women admiring their own beauty also has appeal
>>152950112I would preferably not interact with this pompous asshole at all. Would just treat him as necessary evil and go do his missions like rpg quests.
>>152949526Every issue I root for Martin.
>>152950112Why are you always either rejoying and being useless or sad and being useless?
>>152949704>You've gone too far!Oh? Not when she turned evil and killed her friend and fellow guardian back then? Only now?
>>152949831>cheating judgement by the council by sacrificing herself firstPfft.
>>152950420Is there fan art of her friend?
>>152944259Uhhh why does she wear military underwear?Some kind of story of girl soldier who has been raised & trained in an Eastern Europe where human rights are downplayed and form duo with an old, bad-mannered man who secretly lost daughter by accident to elminite a globalist human trafficker main villain and shed tears when a man dies instead of her life in climax ?
>>152950420I mean, she was condemned to supposed eternal imprisonment for turning evil and killing her friend, so yes, she went too far.You can go too far more than once.
>>152944259I appreciate how Irma has been consistently drawn to be more thick than the rest of the girls so far
>>152951047Does it make her more attractive than her tv counterpart?
>>152950591Will is beautiful
>>152949778>original italianFrench had:> NÉRISSA S'EST SERVIE DE MOI! JE NE ME LE PARDON-NERAI JAMAIS!Italian (a really bad epub scan) had:> NON MI PERDONERO MAI DI AVERLE MESSE IN PERI-COLO! NERISSA MI HA USATA!So, both have Luba saying Nerissa had used her.And the rest of the page matches both editions too.
>>152951675Thank you!It does seem the older fan scanlation is less accurate then.Still odd since Luba very much did it all herself.
>>152951703>older fan scanlationThe Finnish "Noitajengi" "maagista testia" scan by BlackPhoenix? Can't find the original, but maybe that version omitted Nerissa.
>>152951895>version omitted Nerissa.But why though?
>>152944375I like the family.
>>152949561>>152949579>>152949598based. Just the boys shootin some hoops
Next story time when?
>>152948610Yes. I think the girl' relationships, both romantic and parental ones, makes for more cute and dramatic moments than if they were omitted. See: >>152948556 >>152949381 >>152948413Will > Cornelia > Taranee > Hay Lin > Irma
>>152953055Why did you put Irma low?
>>152953110I find her more annoying than funny. I like all the girls tbf, but Irma is vexing to me in ways the other girls aren't
>>152953129Agreed>>152953055Nice, Will is always amazing. What about Elyon?
>>152953129I think Irma's jokes sounded a bit more witty in Italian, but it might be the nostalgia talking
>>152954983Not very high unfortunately. That short period where she's a true villain is probably where she's the most interesting, otherwise I find her pretty bland. Between Hay Lin & Irma. Her relationship with her papa & mama is adorable though, the Elyon special is pretty good.
>>152955080She should have remained evil
>>152944259This comic and show are highly satanic because they have DEMONS
>>152955635How do you think they should have handled Eloyn then? My version would have her bee too far gone and the girls have to do old yeller.
>>152955676HI Satan.
>>152955689Just have her be a genuinely mean and worse person. The protagonists get their power awakened and become good defenders of the people, she has hers awakened and she enjoys the power and doing stuff for herself, nothing complicated. Bad people exist.
>>152945261>get the slanty-eyed oriental gookyo Nerissa chill
Are there any good fan fictions?Also, do you guys find Nerissa attractive?
>>152955635I think she should have been redeemed, but at a much later point. Pretty much in the last issue of the arc only.
>>152955689Same. I wish she became their eternal enemy or even an evil queen. As this anon mentions >>152955714 not everyone has to be good.
>>152945805>>152945832So Mt Thanos is fictional, but irl Mt Erebus is on Ross island just off the coast of continental Antarctica and the southernmost volcano on the planet. Ross Island has two outposts, McMurdo and Scott, with the former being the largest human settlement on the continent.These panels imply that Nerissa is imprisoned in Antarctica, so the how tf did Khor swim all the way to Heatherfield? We know he gets teleported back, but in here >>152944717 >>152944733 it seems like he just swam.Maybe Heatherfield is in Australia or New Zealand? I know last storytime anons were describing it as a European city in N America or what a europoor thinks a N American city would look like.
>>152945911>>152945948>>152945970>TRAD>DRAT>DARTNot tard...?
>>152955875Okay what's keeping from Elyon getting burned for real other then it's a kid's comic and Disney? Why is the old lady signing in Norwegian?
>>152947754Star Trek has permanently ruined teleportation
>>152955962He should do the remake
OP is legend
>>152947754That's not how it works though.>>152956226Why though?
>>152957115He would properly develop the girl's relationship and lead to a well crafted political climate to Meridian and the lore behind the guardians.Also would include detailed sex scenes with Will and the others
>>152957146Would he even finish it though?
I really enjoy WITCH for western magical girls it’s solid
>>152957273Agreed, its masterfully crafted
