    asa autistic confirmed, she just like me fr. infodumping queen

    i think the implication is that famine devil can somehow do the same thing as eternity, but i'm not sure. i like denji's whole attitude at the end there. confirmation that he has in fact grown as a person! my boy is doing so well for himself!

    also, famine and penguin are both kiga in japanese, so that's fun

        look at the specific things being said in the panels with the closeups of his face. makes me wonder if anything else there is relevant

          Like we know denji can reattach limbs, regrowing them doesnt seem like that much more of a stretch. Never needing to eat tho? No way in hell denji allows himself to starve for any amount of time.

              Wasnt that as a kid though? Like he was eating enough to for a normal person to not die, but not enough to be healthy?

                  Hes gonna feed asa pieces of himself, isnt he? Thats how theyre gonna beat famine? Also making her more powerful by accident?

    Asa somehow being able to fuck up a date that should've been a slam dunk, she really just like me frfr

    Denji having enough of over controlling people in his life and just wanting to see penguins is a mood. So glad to see our boy grow

    We got Famine! And Eternity returning (possibly)! Part 2 has been really cool so far!

      Next chapter she's gonna pull a Yuko and make a contract with the talking to boys devil to compensate.

      i thought that was famine doing that, but it could easily be her bribing or tricking or threatening eternity into fighting denji

    So we have officially seen 3 of the 4 Horsemen. My guess is that Death is the ringleader of the 4 and is orchestrating whatever their big plan actually is. Death is obviously going to be a primal fear, possibly stronger than the Darkness Devil, so I really can't wait to see how they interact with the story. Literally no chance any character except maybe Pochita could handle them in a fight.

      Makima wanted to use CSM to kill her sisters, and this chapter we find out War and Famine don't get along. Maybe there's no plan lol

      i don't know if there's a real plan, but death is for sure a primal fear. i kind of hope we never see her tbh

        Yeah I get not wanting to actually see her. The concept of a death devil is so cool that having them actually appear would almost ruin it, unless the appearance is done even better than darkness devil. I feel like Fujimoto is definitely setting up for it though. the Horsemen have to have some sort of plan.

          i trust fujimoto to make it good, but it would need to be more impressive than the darkness devil, because we now have a baseline for what the primal fears are. and i wouldn't be surprised if there was a plan, but whatever it is they clearly aren't communicating too well. i mean, yoru could easily be keeping it from asa, but yoru clearly isn't entirely in the loop for what fami is doing

    wait so when normaloids go on lectures like this irl they arent trying to be rude bastards, mog with their knowledge and suck the air out of the room... but are actually trying to be impressive? Fucking hell thats a shocker.

        i have met many normies who went on one-sided, long-winded lectures like how Asa did when I tried to have a proper conversation with them in work and informal contexts

        Its frustrating because it seemed like they were doing it on purpose to be rude but if they were actually trying to be impressive then i lol at how counterproductive their attempts were

          frankly i don't think most people are "trying to be rude bastards, mog with their knowledge and suck the air out of the room" but also aren't "trying to be impressive". i think 9 times out of 10 they either think the thing they're talking about is genuinely interesting or are nervous and just start talking. you seem to have a really negative opinion of other people

            they either think the thing they’re talking about is genuinely interesting or are nervous and just start talking.

            Reasonable explanations, why do you think they like one-sided conversations so much though?

            you seem to have a really negative opinion of other people

            everybody who knows me irl tell me that a lot, so this must be true lol
