Seven Deadly Sins 86

Jericho’s body warps, her human body barely visible from the huge demon body that grew around it. The demon attacks Guila and Zeal, Gowther moving to stop it, but Diane stops it more directly with her size. King thinks the demon blood started going berserk on its own, but Meliodas thinks it’s someone’s doing.

Hendricksen speaks to the group, noting how perceptive Meliodas is. The second generation was a group he took advantage of, their inferiority complex and general weak wills easily manipulated with the promise of power. And with the incantation he spoke, the blood started going out of control.

Everyone notices Hendricksen, surprised he’s alive and confused at his somewhat new appearance.  Hendricksen explains that he has made a more complete unity with the demon blood, done through the experiments he conducted over the years. He asks them to give up Elizabeth and he’ll let them live. But Meliodas and the others refuse. Hendricksen says he expected as much, King wondering if he expected a sneak attack from behind, Hendricksen responding in the affirmative.

King’s attacked by Helbram, who’s somehow able to attack. Hendricksen explains that Helbram was dead 150 years ago, Hendricksen using a forbidden spell from the druids, Enslavement of the Dead, to bring him back to life after acquiring his body on the black market, since fairy bodies never deteriorate. This is the last time he can use the spell (a maximum of two revivals) and each time they become less stable and weaker. This revelation paralyzes King with anguish, that he killed his friend twice already (once when Helbram first went insane and the second time more recently).

Before Meliodas and Gilthunder can attack Hendricksen, he points out that Vivian has captured Elizabeth and Margaret.  Hendricksen then slashes down Gil, impaling Meliodas, the two collapsing. Vivian asks why Hendricksen attacked Gil, Hendricksen replying that since Gil will be a corpse, she can have him all to herself. But Meliodas isn’t dead, ready to attack as Hendricksen prepares to finish them off.



But Elizabeth volunteers to go with Hendricksen in exchange for Meliodas and Gilthunder’s safety, Hendricksen agreeing. Meliodas tries to stop her, but she says he should let her save him once ina  while, seemingly divided as to her love for Meliodas, but also wanting to protect him.

The chapter ends as Ban appears, seemingly ready to finish off Meliodas.



Next week will reveal the anime’s broadcast schedule.



Magi 232

The group is still standing before Ill Ilah, Solomon wondering to himself why David led him here with the staff given to him. Suddenly, tentacles come from Ill Ilah, touching Arba, Ugo, Solomon and Sheba, opening their third eyes. In that instance, they understood the plan of “God”, destiny. The necessary nature of existence follows a flow generated by the various phenomena created by God to go forward.



The group despairs at their situation, seemingly nothing more than insignificant pawns. But Solomon says that they have the power in front of them to change things, to steal the rukh from God and make a world different from what it is. The others are concerned Solomon will become like David and kill God, but Solomon says he’ll share God with everyone, dividing the rukh evenly between all living beings.

But Arba says she cannot allow this, attacking Solomon. He stops her with relative ease, Ugo saying that he cannot control this, leaving it in Solomon’s hands to manipulate this vast quantity of magoi. Solomon prepares to initiate his plan, leaving things to Sheba, Ugo and Arba, each with their own roles.

Solomon rips all the rukh from Ill Ilah, sealing its body in another dimension and distributing the rukh evenly amongst all species. He also changes all the rukh white, purifying it of the corruption David had instilled.

Solomon seemingly disappears, Sheba not wanting him to leave her behind to become the new “God”. The chapter ends as Solomon’s body has changed, looking much more like David in appearance and Solomon’s Rukh watching over the great flow of Rukh that comprises the world.



Things aren’t over yet, though, since there’s still the black spot incident. Not sure whether Gyokuen is Sheba or Arba. At this point, it could be either of them for different reasons.



World Trigger 68

Yosuke, Izumi and Shun notice that one of the new model Rabits has been destroyed, Osamu and Chika moving to the one near them. As it runs towards them, Izumi uses a combination Trigger to pierce the armor, distracting the Rabit enough for Osamu to blast it away. Izumi’s impressed, thinking Osamu had all that Trion, Osamu explaining he’s using Chika, which makes Izumi think they could take them on.

Chika suddenly senses a Neighbor nearby, the leader appearing in the distance. He notices two of the new Rabits are defeated already, so he unleashes his Trigger, Alektor. It fires birds, which, when they make contact, turn the person it touches into a cube, like the previous Rabits had.



Yosuke and Shun notice that the Trigger manifests the Trion into animals, trying to knock them away. But even their Triggers are turned into tinier cubes. Shun is knocked down and has to Bail Out before he’s turned into a cube. Izumi tells Osamu to run while they handle the Rabits.

The leader fires more birds at Izumi, who catches them all with his own Trigger fire. But lizards appear on his legs, the birds a distraction, as they knock him down.

Osamu uses even more power, firing a huge blast at the Neighbor leader, but the Trigger blocks the attack easily. The amount of Trion impresses the Neighbor leader. He notes the magnetic shards on Osamu as a marker for later, focusing on capturing Chika. He angles his shots to miss Osamu, hitting Chika as the chapter ends on her possibly getting captured.




 
One Piece 754

We see Kinemon has met up with Kanjurou as the chapter begins in the Scrap Heap. Kanjurou apparently isn’t big on formalities and thanks Kinemon for keeping Momonosuke safe, offering some food he can apparently produce with a Devil Fruit power that he calls magic. We see the power in action as he draws a bird on the wall and it comes to life, the other prisoners thinking he has a Devil Fruit as well. The others ask Kinemon and Kanjurou to help them escape as the scene shifts elsewhere.



All the soldiers under Doflamingo are targeting Luffy, the Colosseum army keeping them occupied. Derringer uses his high heels to attack Gilly Blue, seemingly taking him out. Cavendish says that it’s pointless to play Doflamingo’s game and instead kill him so that they can avert the danger of his crimes getting out of the island, which Doflamingo would stop at anything to prevent from being leaked. He made one major error, however, in bringing so many powerful people to one place.

Cavendish vows that he will take Doflamingo’s head, but Luffy, Law and Kyros also say they will do so, provoking a minor squabble before they arrive at the third level. A group of giant puppets that look like nutcracker dolls are walking around, looking very threatening.

Zoro’s fight with Pica seems to be at a standstill, since any time Zoro gets an opportunity to strike, Pica moves to another part of the statue. Pica attacks with tentacles of stone, Zoro dodging and seeing Rebecca’s group floating on the Tontatta’s bugs. Robin tells Zoro to hold Pica off so they can get past Pica’s statue. Pica returns to the statue itself, punching at them with his giant fist. Zoro unleashes 1080 Pound Cannon, one of the strongest Santoryu techniques in the series, chopping Pica’s statue in half as the chapter ends on Zoro saying that Luffy’s crew is out of their league.





Naruto 686

Hagoromo explains the situation to the Hokage: specifically that Madara’s body having the mix of Nine Tails, Indra and Ashura’s chakra allowed him to appear. He then proceeds to teach them the technique Kaguya used to teleport between dimensions (since it is said to require a huge amount of chakra that he doesn’t have anymore)

Meanwhile, Kaguya is attacking all of Naruto’s clones, some of them moving to protect the original Naruto, since they know it’s the attack that could kill Naruto. Kaguya and Black Zetsu conclude the one with the Truth Seeking Orbs on its back is the original one. Even more clones move to surround and protect Naruto, Kaguya blasting through them quickly.

Kakashi is watching, feeling helpless, unable to do anything to help. Naruto shouts that he won’t lose, giving Kakashi some indirect encouragement. Sakura, Sasuke and Obito appear from the other dimension, shocking Black Zetsu. Naruto’s happy to see them, but is suddenly caught by Kaguya and seemingly killed. But the other clones remain, revealing Naruto attached the Truth Seeking Orbs to a clone to distract Kaguya and Black Zetsu further.

As Naruto and Sasuke move to team up, Kaguya is told by Black Zetsu they have to take drastic action, Kaguya teleporting everyone to another dimension with enhanced gravity, pulling everyone down, even Kaguya.

The clones are defeated, leaving the original body. Kaguya fires the bone spears at Naruto and Sasuke, narrowly missing because of the gravity.

She prepares another volley, Kakashi and Obito moving to protect them, encouraged by a vision of Rin in their minds. But before Kakashi can be struck, Obito uses Kamui to teleport the bone spear away, leaving him to die, saying he can’t have Kakashi following him as the chapter ends.





Toriko 286

We flashback to Chichi giving the group Cure Water to help them regenerate from serious damage. Chichi asks about Toriko’s hair being blue (rather than Sani, for some reason), Toriko saying it was black when he was born. Chichi thinks that there are other monsters inside him besides the Red Oni that manifested when they saw the apple with a bit of the scent of Acacia’s Full course on it, one being especially dangerous.

Back in the present, Toriko is still near death, the Cure Water bottle broken. It seems like most of it was used on Toriko (by accident?) and his Gourmet Cells are quickly regenerating the damage. Horse King Heracles notices something, which isn’t the spike in power from Toriko, but that a single Air tree is making more air with a different scent.

We see what is probably the inside of Toriko’s self, two of the oni inside him meeting, the Red and Blue Oni. The Red one says that he didn’t want to ask for the Blue’s help, but Toriko’s in danger and he can’t use his full power. Blue warns him that Toriko’s body may not hold out, but Red says if they eat a certain ingredient, it’ll be okay. They just have to hold out for a few minutes. The Blue Oni agrees, wanting to at least play with the Horse King Heracles.



Toriko regains consciousness, noticing the scent from the single Air Tree Heracles noticed as well. It turns out Komatsu, when he used his knife before, made the Air Tree’s fruit edible, all the tentacles placing their seeds together and creating a single fruit. Toriko’s regenerated half of his body, now resembling the Blue Oni, stretches out his arm, grabbing the fruit and gobbling it down.



The Blue Oni’s body more fully appears from Toriko’s, attacking the Horse King with a punch to the face. The chapter ends as Blue Oni taunts the Horse King, who seems to be ready to take it seriously.





Bleach 590

Giselle notes how bright Mayuri shines, Mayuri responding that he’s great, so he should shine appropriately, which just makes Giselle think he’s arrogant. Ikkaku and Yumichika knew it was Mayuri from either his voice or his taste in clothes.

Bambietta appears, Giselle thinking she wants to protect her. Bambietta speaks about wanting something of Giselle’s (flesh, blood?), Giselle slapping her as punishment. She grabs Bambietta by the hair, saying if she completes her task, she’ll be rewarded, Bambietta apologizing and promising to win, not wanting to be punished further.

Mayuri comments on how pitiful that display was, Giselle commenting on his light getting dimmer. He simply responds that it was so peons like her could see him, Giselle still noting how arrogant he sounds, Mayuri not caring one bit.

Giselle commands Bambietta to attack, firing the reishi bullets, which explode around Mayuri, who manages to dodge them. He comments on the consistent speed of the bullets and commands Nemu to use a device. She inquires about the parameters, Mayuri responding that 3 seconds will suffice.

As the reishi bullets race toward him, Pokeball looking items appear around him, intercepting the bullets and stopping them, the explosion resulting a few seconds later and nearly destroying Bambietta, doing little damage to Giselle.

Giselle is confused at what happened, Mayuri explaining those devices were reishi manipulators, stopping their flow for a set period of time. The devices became bombs, but temporarily malfunctioned. He says with this, Bambietta’s ability is pointless, so he asks them to come along quietly.

But Giselle responds that it’s not just the two of them: she’s created a small army of Soul Reaper zombies to do her bidding.



Mayuri says he’d feel bad in attacking fellow Soul Reapers, so he reveals that he has Arrancar zombies: Dordoni and Cirucci of the Privaron Espada, Luppi, former 6th Espada and Charlotte Chulhorne, Fraccion of Barragan, the chapter ending as Mayuri leaves it to them.





Fairy Tail 394

Natsu makes a solid punch on Tempester, but he counterattacks with just as much power. Gajeel’s having difficulty as well, Lucy thinking Juvia must be in danger too.

Juvia tries to contact Silver, but can’t establish a link. She wonders if this is best for Gray. Keith says that Tartaros knew Silver was trying to fight against them, but Keith recognized that the desire for revenge and getting stronger as a result was what allowed him to prolong his undead existence, which piqued Keith’s interest. Juvia thinks he’s a monster, Keith responding that with Gray killed by Silver and Silver killed by Gray, he’ll have an even greater research subject.

This enrages Juvia, who starts to attack with more intensity. Keith binds her with his seemingly formless body. Lucy tries to move and help Juvia, but skeletons start to appear from the ground, Torafusa explaining this is a huge gravesite, making it a cache of weapons for Keith.

Keith continues to provoke Juvia, saying she will sever the bond between Silver and Gray by killing him, since Silver will cease to exist. Juvia hesitates, saying she can’t do it, Keith seemingly tearing her into pieces with his power.

But Juvia has turned into water and gotten into Keith’s body, exploding him from the inside as she says feelings will always remain in some form, human bonds not broken that easily. With Keith defeated, Face is stopped and the skeletons fall apart, Torafusa and Tempester shocked.



Silver speaks to Juvia as he begins to cross over, thanking her and telling her to take care of his son. As Silver disappears, he thinks to himself that the reason he learned Ice Demon Slayer magic is because END is a flame type, and he passes the magic onto Gray, markings appearing on his body as the chapter ends on Gray vowing to defeat END.
