where is the title of the next chapter ?

"Once again, a nightmare."

 

[Meliodaf]

Oh, there's no doubt she put in a respectable amount of work. She just really got the crap end of the stick a lot of times, way more than her peers. Hearts stolen, burned alive by Escanor's soul, she had her neck broken and had to get a new body, beat up as a giant snake (which wasn't even necessary for her to turn into), and then turned into a tiny snake and kept in a jar until now.

Even was given a comedic reaction when she attempted to 1vs6 the Sins with her skelingtons.

Ok that’s fair. She put in work but when she wasn’t putting in work she was full on getting embarrassed

I’d say that says a lot about gawain’s character but he doesn’t have one *badum tss*

To Gawain’s credit she was 100% right, she would have won if Pellegarde didn’t fight back

 

[Samael Morningstar]

I think it would be the perfect time to introduce Elizabeth when the duo would be causing destruction and overpowering the good guys

Also now I'm 100℅ sure that "Chaos Grayroad" Will eventually show up at some point in the manga

What if the other cloaked guy is Jericho who's turned traitor

 

[Killerbee12]

Or it can be Jericho

 

[Son Detective Asurei]

I thought that the second hooded figure could be deathpierce, but I doubt he would be willing to work with Mera.

 

[Demonspeed]

New poll!

 

[Epic_Rider]

I was thinking that Tristan was more like Liz, but the way he manipulated Gawain was pure Mel.

Those cloaks Melascula and the mysterious figure are just like the cloak that Merlin wore the first time we saw her, That, plus the statement of knowing Liones better than anyone is Camelot as well as the height of the figure makes me feel it's Merlin (who is levitating under the cloak) though that could be a red herring.

 

[ShadowHeart]

As much I like it'll be Merlin it's probably Jericho.

 

[baditz]

I bet that that Deathpierce, only him familiar with Liones who confirm dont like today Liones,,
He maybe hate demon, but different case if he know under Arthur n Arthur give him order to work tigether with her.

 

[Gallon]

Pretty sure that's Lancelot's evil older brother, Hybritachi - the same one that killed the entire fairy-human clan.
Does he have any feelings left for his former home? No, none.
Or does he? Ten bucks Bartra ordered him to do it, and his goal is but to protect his younger brother.

 

[Demonspeed]

Could also be Ironside looking for Guinevere? She and Lancelot are supposed to meet tomorrow but he could intercept the person under the cloak early.

 

[Ann Firestar]

I would have liked to cloaked person to be Merlin, but I don’t think she goes out to run her errands now, or that she knows Lionesses layout that well.
(when you teleport, you don’t need to know every location)
I think it’s Jericho, just because if she’s the traitor for some reason, it will traumatise Lancelot.

The most interesting part is the fact that Chaos can and does resurrect people!
You don’t even need Arthur to be at the scene to do that.
I think the only limitation, that you need a part of original body to summon soul to.
So that rolls out Esca and Moni with Deri because their bodies are ash.
Also it explains why didn’t Arthur resurrect old inhabitants of Camelot. They were attacked by demons, and those guys eat souls. Chaos can’t bring a soul back to the body, if there isn’t one to pull from the one of the underworlds.

Merlin literally made most of the town there after the Ten Commandments wrecked it before.

Jericho would be interesting, but the height thing is still an issue.

 

[Demonspeed]

Merlin should definitely know the town. She was a HK there after all.

With Chaos powers and stuff Jericho could look very different, or maybe she can levitate now. We would have never been able to guess that Galan and Merascylla were both under one cloak.

Chaos didn't resurrect anyone, Melascula never died, she just got her powers removed. She revived Galan the same way she revived Elaine.

I suppose that's possible, but I doubt it.

 

[HereNThere]

Time Skip Jericho isn't exactly short anymore. She's not as big as Ban, but she was shown to be pretty tall in Lance's one shot.

In the scene where we see her with Ban, she was standing on a raised piece of ground which is why she appeared taller.

 

[Vortigern]

This chapter was fun even though I had already read the spoilers. In particular I enjoyed Pellegarde, Tristan and Percival reacting to Gawain's tantrum in different ways. Some readers are probably upset that Gawain is not a cool badass and all, but I think this is a good way to handle her character and to very clearly distinguish her from Escanor. She has a lot of room for character growth over the course of the series. I also liked that Galand was brought back through Melascula's necromancy rather than him getting outright resurrected by Arthur. I'm not opposed to the concept of resurrection in principle, but it can get out of hand very quickly if it's too easily accomplished. Elaine needing the combination of an intact body, her soul being summoned back into it and then being given the seemingly one-of-a-kind Fountain of Youth to restore her life force was an appropriate way to handle her revival I think.

The mechanics behind it aside, it's nice to see Galand and Melascula again, even if I'm a little bit concerned about the possibility of Nakaba recycling former enemies becoming a trend in the sequel. I also don't get why she says "grant us new life" and "brethren souls wandering in Purgatory" when she was never dead to begin with and was just summoning Galand. Why the plural? Anyway, I'm very curious about how this fight is going to go. Percival still hasn't had a showdown with his dad and we just saw Gawain losing to Pellegarde, so I don't expect the focus to move away from the holy knights just yet. It's possible that Tristan and Lancelot could be massively stronger than the other two, but I kind of doubt it. The former TC members seem more like a way to keep Meliodas and the other Sins busy while the youngsters deal with the human enemies. That said, the FKOTA fighting the kids could be interesting given all the connections between the two groups. Gawain's predecessor kicked both of their asses, Lancelot's father destroyed some of their hearts and Tristan is the product of two people this duo despises. There's some potential for amusing interactions there.

Lastly we also have this mystery character. If they really do know Liones better than anyone in Camelot, then that should mean that this is a familiar face and perhaps even the traitor, but they could also be the assassin. In theory their familiarity with Liones should give us a clue about their identity, but things get confusing when you look at this person's height. I initially thought that maybe Melascula is just really short, but it turns out that she's 154cm(5'1"), plus some extra if she's levitating like she usually does. The cloaked figure next to her is about 1.5 times her height, so roughly 230cm(7'7") if not more. That's massive. The only characters related to Liones I can think of that are even remotely close to that are Ban, Griamore and Slader at about 210cm(about 7 feet). Some people have brought up Merlin as a possibility since she can levitate and thus appear much taller than she actually is, but that actually seems to disprove the idea because we see the cloaked figure leap over the crowd. Merlin always either levitates or teleports instead of exerting herself physically. Plus I'm not sure she's even a human to begin with given that her real name is supposed to be impossible for humans to pronounce. Jericho is another popular option, but she's barely taller than Melascula, unless she's been mutated to hell and back like Ordo. I feel like the best candidates are probably Deathpierce, who is fairly tall, and Arden, who used to be very short but had grown to about the same height as Deathpierce by the time Tristan was born. Their heights still aren't quite there, but they at least have a motive for betraying Liones, although you'd think Deathpierce would have already been dealt with during the events of the Edinburgh movie.

I wonder if the one with Hendy is Vivian? Or maybe he got a wife at last?

Their relationship must be on the rocks if his wife refers to him as "sir". Poor Hendy was not meant for romance.

Rereading again, they aren't really here to fight. What could they be looking for?

I don't remember but has the identity of the Goddess in the Horn of Cernunnos ever been confirmed? Maybe that's what they want. Although I think it would be a bit weird.

Maybe they want to kill Bartra to get rid of the Vision?

The Horn was destroyed by Meliodas in the short special anime series meant to fix some of the continuity errors in season 1 in preparation for season 2. Nakaba apparently supervised that stuff so I'd assume it was canon, but who knows.

 

[Ann Firestar]

Chaos didn't resurrect anyone, Melascula never died, she just got her powers removed. She revived Galan the same way she revived Elaine.

Oh! Totally forgot about that one

 

[Demonspeed]

Even though Mera used her powers she must have been aided by Arthur as well. Galan also considers himself a Servant of Chaos now and he got powered up.

Also makes me wonder. Do they still count as Demons or are they a new race/species entirely? Something like a Chaos Being?
