No, i think suicide case is only related to gray winged haibane aka rakka & reiki, but i do think the place is a transitory kind of place like a purgatory or a " waiting room" before going to somewhere or something like this. But i think suicide /unhappiness/self-acceptance is the main topic of the story.
yyeah Reiki scene was awesome i loved the non graphical but still somehow violent/disturbing imagery.

Yeah agree Reiki had likely the most painful life and death, Rakka overwhelmed things and realized she had someone who cared for her, but reiki, i felt so bad for her. Yeah Nemu was awesome, loved her lot too.

Yup, that's the gist of what I think, we are pretty much on the same page.

waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaait you watched Tokyo magnituuuuude, thats awesome !!!!

that was a sad anime too !

I think it was one of those many great recommendations from Nii. It was a thrilling series from start to finish with a bittersweet end.

@syx its been a while i hadnt share tpn art, here my last 2018 contribution

@cry_mond

Those are great. The second one kinda captured Demizu's style. Emma and Gilda with different hair styles. <3

And the last one... Yugo...such a strong smile...

What a sweet gif. Gonna steal it from you and make it mine.

Gil be like *they have something I don't have... that's OUTRAGEOUS!*

And then he pops up one because he is epic and shit.

Ozy and Gil would make an extremely entertaining duo I think.

Read the Shiganshina Arc today:

Spoiler

I really enjoyed the first two-thirds of this arc. Many o chara's got their chance to shine. Erwin was pretty epic, but he had such a death flag on him that it took a bit off it. At least most people thought he should've been titanified...

The other bits where we found out about the world I wasn't crazy for, these reveals often aren't for me. However it's more about what the story does with that info from here, so I'll be waiting. Some of the stuff, like the baby bit, feels connected to Historia's bump Got more resource/population vibes from the Eldian story.

Arc ending at the beach was something we/Eren could see coming ; ) Eren couldn't be happy, because the memories have made him more Jellal-like... felt sorry for the other two, mainly Armin. Couldn't imagine how it would feel to see the ocean for those guys.

Oh, does Eren have two great titan powers in him? lol.

I'm so proud of you, @Brandish. Posting only the one true panel that matters. You made me run tears of joy.

Yup, Erwin had quite the spotlight there. In general, he was a great character and top notch leader. Too bad he couldn't make it to the basement. He was so damn close. Dunno whether I would have went with Armin or Erwin, my head kinda says Erwin while my heart goes for Armin. A though decision which was nicely portrayed, the struggle was real. Well, I can get over with character's deaths whom I like as long as there is a proper replacement. Armin may be not Erwin, but he has other qualities, so I'm fine with it.

Do you have any idea what you would have preferred in regards to the reveals, any ideas? I already told you that the opinions differ. I can see where you guys are coming from. The reveals weren't that great for me either, but I have seen so many bad reveals that it makes a kinda okayish reveal - like in SnK's case - look better than it actually is. Revelations generally have the habit to disappoint because it takes away the thrill which was build up over so many years, hence expectations are very high. Well, that's at least the way I see it.

Where exactly does the Shiganshina Arc end? I thought it ended when they entered the basement and found that photo. But you seem to know way more than that (Eldian, baby, Historia, beach scene). I have to be careful to not spoil you, haha. But you made an interesting point, in the end it's up to the author what he intends to do with the revelations.

You would think Armin reaching the beach would be some kind of a happy epilogue panel at the end of the series, but the real deal is just starting for them.

Oh, does Eren have two great titan powers in him? lol.

Spoiler

Yes. : )

You doing great, man!

Yea I don't think they can replace Erwin. I didn't want Armin to die either, it would be harder to handle for me emotionally. Plus, it wouldn't feel right if the person with the most authority in the corps was a strong titan lol.

Do you have any idea what you would have preferred in regards to the reveals, any ideas?

Nah, I'm not creative in the slightest. When I don't like a reveal like this one, it's often that the build-up > truth.

I didn't really understand Ymir's bits. I was getting so confused because of the other Ymir. Was she just lead astray by some cult? That titan of hers looks a lot like that 'devil'.

Chapter 90. I stopped because I saw some kid at the start of 91 (who looked like Norman lol) and checked google.

Yep the photo was seen mid-80s, and there were about 5 flashback chaps.

Hard to miss the Historia is pregnant news. There was a Maury Povich type poll in SnK section, I even voted on it

Yes it is. And tbf, this type situation has been built up all series, ever since we found out Eren could be a titan; that being humans are the real enemy. And if I've got it right, only humans with Ymir blood can be turned into a titan. Which means Zeke could stroll into town and turn people who aren't Ackerman's into a titan? That guy is dangerous af Levi was soo close...

Okita-chan <3 She never let me down in FGO. And Nobu is crazy cool.

Nah, I'm not creative in the slightest. When I don't like a reveal like this one, it's often that the build-up > truth.

Isn't the build-up always better than the revelation though? Build ups are all about mysteries, thrill, theorizing, curiosity and excitement. The truth takes all that away and brings everything to conclusion... more or less.

I didn't really understand Ymir's bits. I was getting so confused because of the other Ymir. Was she just lead astray by some cult? That titan of hers looks a lot like that 'devil'.

Yes, you are right. Ymir has no connection with the ancient Ymir Fritz.

Chapter 90. I stopped because I saw some kid at the start of 91 (who looked like Norman lol) and checked google.

Yep the photo was seen mid-80s, and there were about 5 flashback chaps.

Oh, there you are. : )

I wonder how you will like the next batch of chapters. It will be different since there will be a change of scene, if I'm allowed to say as much. Some fans thought it was kinda dragging. But since you will probably read it at in one sweep, it might not feel that dragging for you.

Hard to miss the Historia is pregnant news. There was a Maury Povich type poll in SnK section, I even voted on it

Haha, totally agree with you. I try to avoid SnK spoilers as much as I can, but it's not possible sometimes. It's the same for the upcoming chapter (#113). I know what happens more or less due to my friends going apeshit crazy about it. Can't wait for that chapter, I would have preferred to read it without prior knowledge.

Yes it is. And tbf, this type situation has been built up all series, ever since we found out Eren could be a titan; that being humans are the real enemy. And if I've got it right, only humans with Ymir blood can be turned into a titan. Which means Zeke could stroll into town and turn people who aren't Ackerman's into a titan?

Not gonna spoil you, I think you are still missing some Zeke bit.

That guy is dangerous af Levi was soo close...

No, you clearly don't know who you consider dangerous, so let me clue you in. Zeke is not dangerous, Brandish, Levi is! A big ass beast titan faces Levi and you hear trample sounds and think it's Levi stomped to death? No. Levi is the one who stomps!

I wouldn't say always, but probably most of the time. Especially in manga where the buildup can feel like forever. I really liked the TPN reveals for example.

So there is an arc before the current chapter? I might read it then.

Yeah, agreed. But in my case, I can hardly say a revelation made me more hyped than the mystery itself. Though, it may be not even a fair comparison anyway. Uncertainty and secrets are more sexy anyway.

You have to be more active in the TPN section.

So there is an arc before the current chapter? I might read it then.

I honestly don't know what you mean? Chapter ~91-100 will have a different focus in regards to plot, location and characters. I was referring to this.

You have to tell me if I'm being too spoilery.

Poor Cu and his bad luck. xD

At least Fake Archer knows how to treat the real Archer.

Hohoooo you guys can finally post Umineko pics without spoiling me. The second pic is amazing, the third one - even though I have no idea what it is about - is lol, chibi Dlanor is always a win <3 and Bern rejecting - "please, would you not" - Lambda while blushing is glorious.

 

[Brandish μ]

Ah right. I'll be reading one arc at a time, so if 91-100 is the first part of the arc I'll just wait til it's done.

The great people at Wiki inform me that the "Marley arc" is 91-106. So I can do that, then hold off for some time.

@eizvm3Pon8kg508

The grown up Emma one must be the best adult version of Emma I ever saw as far as I remember. She will be so awesome when she grows up! : ) The Isabella one is also nicely done, as well as the "expedition" picture, where our trio wear casual clothes. As always, the others are also cool. Oh, I completely forgot about Ray's birthday.

I know you're a Shalltear fan, so here.

And as a little extra:

Who isn't a Shalltear fan, Nii? Come one, you just can't dislike her.

And shouldn't Kimetsu air this season? Great pic by the way, The Flame Pillar was a really cool one. : (

Thank you both of you so much!

True, Shalltear is great. Maybe a bit too devoted to Ainz, but hey :^)

It's going to air next season, in April. Should hopefully be great, expecting a lot from ufotable.

Also, you should be on slack more often. And I'm saying this exactly bc I know it's annoying you :3

Yeah, I know. I have sometimes problems with characters who are too devoted as well. But I guess I turn a blind eye on her because I don't take the Overlord series very serious.

Ah, shoot! : (

Also, you should be on slack more often. And I'm saying this exactly bc I know it's annoying you :3

Yes, it's annoying because I - usually - do spend a good amount of time on slack but you are never there, hence I take my leave because I hate having open tabs which I don't use.
