Demon!Mika is a gift, Big Truth™

But I’m more satisfied with these panels

The link between the First, the angels and the vampires is finally established, visually.

And let’s not overlook this, the First calling out to his long ago discarded sons… mister pretty wings must have felt really threatened

The possibility of a reunion, a real one, which probably won’t be interrupted since the First is now unable to free himself (if Urd’s cage is really made to resist the First’s power)

It’s also the first time we see Shika in the real, tangible world, instead of the innerworld/demon’s lair of each host. I guess that’s why he doesn’t have his wings

And the possibility to see some of my main interrogations confronted:

why did he keep Ashera and the others by his side and why he abandoned the 2nds and 3rds progenitors

the rules imposed to the vamps, the ones Urd kept observing

why the vamps are unable to feel anything and die with no purpose, while Shika seems perfectly aware and focused on his goal

the angels and their little trumpets!! 🎺 they seem to trigger the Seraph gene but they might have another goal, maybe obeying “god” ?

the role of both organisations… we know it was merely a way to find a solution to solve Shika’s problem faster but we have yet to see the actions of the Hyakuya Sect. I want to know why they gave those nicknames to Yuu and Ashera when they almost captured them (Sun god aten, the Devil…) in chap 88 if I remember correctly

something, anything about the Michaela Trait?? What is it and how does it affect people having it (Ferid, Crowley, Mika…)

Probably many other questions not yet put into thoughts. Anyway to me this looks very promising, I hope we won’t switch to another inquiry or other characters for now except for my boys Ferid and Crowley ‘cause I miss them.

I can’t wait for next month, but nothing new here~

Play Date!

This has been in the works for the past twoish days, and I’ve refrained myself from sending a wip of it to @croxovergoddess so it could be a surprise. Don’t ask me why, but it was decided by The Counsel. 

Anyway! Context:

Faith and Jazz must be around the same age since they go to the same school and are only like; at most, a grade apart. At least, that what I used to think, before I remembered that Reaper High is multiuniversal and can literally have any character from any time. 

But the idea stuck, so moving on! 

I wanted to combine two drawing ideas I’ve had (JIda and Spicerpuffs double date and Jazz and Faith playdate), and this is the result! Ta Da!

Well, hello guys, another month, a new chapter to read from Kagami-sensei.

As usual, let’s start with a deep analysis of the events that happened in the chapter; warning: if you haven’t read the chapter, avoid reading this!!

To begin with, we start with a postwar between the JIDA and the Hyakuya Sect; Kureto managed to keep things under control and of course, he’s ready to interrogate members of the Hyakuya sect hence why he’s ordering to capture them.

As we know, Kureto has been carrying a heavy responsibility; he started on getting ready to be a heir in case Mahiru died; he received strick training but once the catastrophe hit the world; he started to create a strategy plan in order to take down his father Tenri Hiragi; after that, as we’ve seen, he’s been focusing on taking care of humanity; he’s been training his soldiers, giving them weapons to defend and protect the other humans inside; even if his methods aren’t ethical ones.

Next we have Crowley and Ferid engaging in a friendly conversation; we see them saving a JIDA soldier but at the same time, why does Ferid seem to have an odd attitude?

To begin with, Ferid is aware his sire is there, that his sire that stopped paying mind to him left in order to search for a better option, for a new Michaela but; beneath that, Ferid wanted to prove why he was talented, why he was a worthy son or sired one.

Then we see them joke and talk about the past on how Crowley’s army was slayed by Ferid. Along this, Ferid states he wishes to be killed which is something he’s been talking about since chapter 76 but why?

Ferid lost hist mortality long ago thanks to Rigr’s ambitions, and yet, Rigr never taught something important to Ferid once he became a vampire: a reason to live.

Ferid despite being cold in terms of actions, he has reasoning, logical reasoning despite merciless actions; up to the current date, he wonders this:

Why is he alive?

Was there other purpose to be a vampire?

What’s his reason to live?

Why does he exist?

Moving on, we finally spot Rigr, he’s badly injured and of course in less than few seconds he’s found by Ferid and Crowley.and then, Rigr asks Ferid: what’s the purpose of Ferid? what’s the reason why Ferid elaborated a plan in order to kill him?

Ferid replies that it’s the father’s duty to teach that to the son, and then Ferid asks Crowley the same; and despite this, Ferid states he’s been teaching Crowley the reason.

These questions seem like oblivious or more like lacking sense or what most of us call it: “Daddy Issues”. But, at the same time, there’s depth, there’s reason, there’s logic and most of all, they explain more about Ferid’s character and demanor; how is that possible? Well, let’s explain it:

To begin with, Ferid was born as a 2nd hair to the throne; many would suspect that to those ages,centuries a boy would be proud or happy to be in a rich family; but, within the chapter, we see a young Ferid literally killing his family

Many would state that Ferid was insane, crazy, even Rigr stated he was abnormal; but, even with this behavior, Ferid’s life was filled with sadness and disappointment.

Ferid stated that he received strict upbrining, they were teaching him to be a “saint”. 

To start of with this, it’s clear that Ferid meant that despite being within a royal family, the treatment he received wasn’t the same for the main head or the one who was going to rule; he was raised differently despite the luxurious lifestyle implied; within this we can relate a lot to the Hiragi family, royal families had several kids in order to protect the future of their family ties; in order to keep the power despite going in a full cycle of life and death.

And thus, we jump straight to what Ferid always had: An empty life; his life was filled with expectations and being a replacement in case the first heir died; a lfie without meaning, a life without purpose, a life on which there was no personal reason to exist. 

And of course, his twisted form to rebel against this was eliminating his “written on stone like future”.

Despite these actions, Rigr decided to take him and “make” him a Michaela, someone close to take the role; Rigr waited until Ferid grew up in order to turn him into a vampire and despite Urd’s objections, Ferid became a vampire and thus a failed Michaela.

Now, how does Ferid’s family relate to Rigr?

To begin with, Ferid as a human beign expected to take that new role, the fact that Rigr called him his Michaela might have caused Ferid to think of a better future and, the moment Rigr discarted him; this was mostly of what he experienced on his life as a human: where’s the reason to live? Was there a reason left when someone becomes a vampire?

Likewise, that’s the main reason he answered Crowley about how he has endlessly taught him about life itself:

To fight

To find a reason to live even if it’s revenge which is something Crowley experienced at first until those feelings eventually died with centuries

Despite having inmortality, there’s no joy in it if there’s not a single reason to keep living

Even though, within this, there’s also agony and dispair because even if events tragic events occurr, the world moves on; it eventually forgets about the past and remains the same; there’s not a remote change within the mindset of humanity and thus, that also applies to vampires as well.

Now, moving on to Rigr; Rigr plans and thinks about possible ways to escape but knowing his body won’t heal fast due to the effects of the cursed gear; Urd appears, asks him if he needs help; and this also clarifies something, but what?

The vampires despite knowing Rigr’s plans, are willing to take him not to save but rather to interrogate him, to learn more about the truth hidden with blood and lies.

What do you think guys? Do you think there’s more to it within the chapter? Let me know!!!

ONS got to experience Minecraft.
