But I do hope he leaves one alive for interrogation.
Also, Etienne better not be disappointed w/Rishar on this.
Spoiled he is
It's her isn't?
But the Emperor's hands are tied because there's no evidence.
I hope once they're defeated.... their shadow group will disband completely.
To move forward, you have to let go of some ideologies.
Looks like it since her and Denken are at odds with each other and he wasn't briefed about their "plans/mission".
The type of guy who'll try to monopolise his lover while spoiling them rotten.
(But not to the point of breaking their friendships or disrespecting them, if u know what I mean)
ლ(´ڡ`ლ)
PS
But I DO enjoy certain types of true yandere. Teehee.
Don't get me wrong. It just took me off guard.
She's looking WAY too sexy there.
Was the Zig's POV (but we didn't see him react or anything)?
Or was that for our (the audience) eyes only???
... then again, probably won't matter much (for now)
i think its zig’s pov if u look closely at the next panel there’s a reflection of zig’s face in his drink (i hope im not being delulu tho )
Also, where those diamonds in his glove?!
Damn, he's really showing off huh :)))
Probably to not be underestimated or something
'Coz a lot of stories just.... ends it there & postpones the confirmation of love later after more tribulations & some time apart or for one reason or another :))))
Not that I mind if they do.... but, still......
But not hopeless.
I can sense that she WOULD have wanted to know.
That that shock is part of the process of grief that she could've eventually gotten over if all four of them grieved and honored Wisteria's sacrifice in truth
But the three shits have proven that Wisteria was PROBABLY never *truly* part of their family or clique.
Because if she were, they would've honored their memory rather than erase what she did entirely.
They could have done so even if it's just within their family or among the four of them, in the event that the Magician's soceity pressured them into silence like they did w/Wisteria's colleague.
Also, they could have made it a goal to become powerful enough to investigate the questionable decision behind choosing a sacrifice to send to the other realm. (Or ARE they working towards this?)
I don't dislike her anymore
I dislike her family who willingly, deliberately, perpetuated the misunderstanding and shat on Wisteria's selfless sacrifice.
Unless, they prove me wrong, of course, and they were actually doing something behind the scenes.
She received the "first kiss" didn't she?!
Gosh! Our silver moriarty is something else!
Will our non eccentric cute adorable fairy sherlock be able to keep up?!
Also! The war between dark & light magician might not be as simple as we think, given that memory in the theater!
NOOOO
Who received the first kiss? Leticia?
Shoot. Is that the new name of MC?
then, yes. I think she received the "First Kiss" in the cave, when she was briefly separated from the Duke
Yah from where I read it, the MC's name is Leticia
Maybe I'm looking too deep into it & I'm probably babbling nonsensically

But I feel like Takopi's original sin wasn't that he failed to make either Marina or Shizuka happy nor that he unintentionally cause the death of either.
His sin was the loss of "childish innocence" (not d dirty kind) --> a sin for his alien race 'coz it goes against their very essence
That's why his mother wanted to erase his memory so that he'll go back to being childishly, innocently happy (default / natural mindset for a happy-an)
--
Also, it's kinda sad that the only thing he could do in the end was to "magic" the problems away by sacrificing himself
By using up his very essence ("innocence") in exchange, he forcibly returned part of Marina & Shizuka's "innocence": the ability to set aside differences & just make friends, parents' / adults' /society's version of morality be damned.
--
This manga is metaphorical I guess
Takopi's the representation of that innocent child , powerless against the adults, and still at that stage where he isn't tainted yet with society's right & wrong.
Like the toddler us, his version of right & wrong was based on whether someone is happy or not.
Like us, he was powerless against a situation forced by adults we have zero influence over (esp in the Asian context) & becomes confused by what is truly right & wrong.
But unlike us, he can't grow up. He wasn't allowed to.
Hence why his mother wanted to erase his memories, 'coz part of growing up is realizing happiness and morality isn't so simple
Hence, why he fails to grasp the complexities of the situation (it isn't something an innocent child can solve while remaining *that* innocent)
'Coz paradoxically, part of our growing up involves letting go some of that "innocence".
It then becomes a question of how twisted or not twisted we become in the process.
Which was where Azuma & his brother comes in.
Azuma was at the verge of growing up twisted after letting go of his "innocence", but was saved by his brother's genuine love
(altho their happy ever after isn't guaranteed since Junya might not finish uni & we don't know what their perfectionist Mother will do, Azuma's hopeful look indicates things might turn out ok for him regardless)
You should write essays, i think you'll be good at it
very eloquently spoken!
Thanks, you are the first person to actually get the manga here, I wish your comment would have more upvotes but I guess many reading are children themselves and might not get this manga.
Yes, I came here from anime adaptation and as I continued to watch, I kept thinking about how his innocence was slowly getting tainted, his opinions changing from one to another the more he learns about people. First, he sided with Marina because he saw everything from Marina's side then he sided with Shizuka because he's seeing things from Shizuka's side. Then he finally revealed that he actually doesn't know what to do and how to solve things at all. In moments like where Takopi become afraid of Marina after taking the beatings in Shizuka's place, it very much reminds me of how younger siblings ( who aren't abused but grew up in an abusive household) would feel and react everytime they see the other siblings getting beaten
i didnt expect a great analysis in this mostly bl website. hats off to you (๑•ㅂ•)و✧
