New chapter today. Spoiler seemingly confirms Yor's planning to leave. Will Axeman be unmedicated enough to do separation arc or will Loid ask her to stay?

>>280295664 (OP)
I've been thinking about this cliffhanger a lot desu. It's very exciting to think about what could happen next.

I don't think today's chapter will fully satisfy me given Axeman's track record for stalling, but I hope there's an actual talk and not some drawn out misunderstanding because they explicitly didn't talk.

>>280295776

Why does the annoying pink thing keep ruining everything?

>>280295664 (OP)
Loid will marry Becky, she at least will properly fulfill her duties as a wife

>>280295664 (OP)
Axeman Meds. Now.

Will we get the tadaima no chuu?
Will it become a goodbye chuu?

>>280295891
She doesn’t want a new baby stealing attention away from her

>>280295664 (OP)
Yor and Loid will smooch

Spoiler may be inaccurate. I machine translated it yesterday and it came back that she planned to leave but had to make the final decision. I machine translated it again after posting and it was much more ambiguous. I put it through other translators and they align with the more ambiguous reading.

>when your beautiful wife knocks on your door and is distraught about the fake marriage and wants to leave

>>280295664 (OP)
>First thing ever happened in the nothing ever happen manga
>It's (fake) family drama
Finally the plot is moving

>>280295664 (OP)
I mean, putting aside the obvious plot never allowing it plus whatever feelings Lloid has for her, strictly speaking about Twilight's mission, this wouldn't be that much of a problem? Yor was needed because Eden Academy demanded a two parent household for enrollment, but now that she's been a student for more than a year it sounds pretty ridiculous to expel the kid on the basis of the parents getting divorced/separated. Sure he would take a reputational blow, but hardly anyone of his skill level can't recover from and use to his advantage.

He even already made professional contract with the target's wife, so he's got all his bases covered. If he really needs a wife cover he can always spin the story that in the aftermath of the divorce he got seduced by his hot assistant at the hospital. It might even help him out in the long run as said assistant is probably capable in all the housewife areas that Yor was frankly a disaster in.

>>280296911
This whole post will be Loid's cope logic as he tries (and fails) to force himself to stop missing Yor.

>>280296911
>for more than a year
Six months. It's currently winter.

Loid unironically caused this by being so closed off with her

>>280295927
No, hold the meds.

>>280297012
Damn, it felt like a decade.

>>280296978
No, it's quite obvious who was posting here. Especially since the infidelity angle makes this particularly retarded since that's considered a major spy indicator in this setting.
And Melinda seems like she might quit seeing him about her own marriage once she learns Yor split, since Yor is the one she's on better terms with.

>>280295891
>ruining everything
She's the reason your ship is even living together.

>>280296759
I doubt it. Yor will say she's going, Loid will beg her not to, and she'll change her mind.
Then two weeks from now you'll get a Bond chapter about him doing dog things.

>>280295776
I'm looking forward to Loid's reaction to all this. Axeman has been tiptoeing around the consequences of Loid realizing he was compromised in the Wheeler arc. Hopefully Yor shoving their relationship in his face will force him to reconfront that, especially if she threatens to take herself away from him.

Dumpanon here, will dump chapter here with some delay, sorry in advance.

Still Loid, anon.

>>280295891
Don't worry, they're gonna drop it off at the orphanage when their relationship becomes real.

>>280298553
Loid, Yor, Anya and Bond, are the focus ACKTUALLY.

Anyabros... The orphanage again...

>>280298553
Plan B is the main plot and Anya is at the center of it

Very good chapter, I hope this is an arc with just loid and Yor. We are finally getting something.

Incorrect

Oh look, the cliffhanger last chapter ended up being a nothingburger again, Yor just wanted some painkillers. What a twist!

For fuck's sake.

>>280298915
It WAS enjoyable after the initial fakeout, I'll admit. Hopefully this arc chapter is just the beginning of the arc rather than its conclusion.

Imagine Yor fucked up on oxy

Dumping

>>280299105

>>280299164

>>280299019
>nothingburger
Pretty sure all the shippers want is dates and hand holding and that's what they got.

>>280299212

>>280298915
>>280299019
I was under the impression this was still part of the Garden arc. Most long arcs go six to seven chapters and next chapter will be six. However, if this spins into a brand new LoidYor arc I won't complain in the slightest.

>>280299164
>I am not pleased that you damaged the site and delayed the completion of your assignment.
>But I do not fault you for quarreling with the Thorn Princess.
Forced a laugh out of me from shock. This fucking guy really doesn't care for Yor's new family life, huh.

>>280299273

>>280299289
>arc
Anon... I'm positively certain this IS the wrap up to the arc. Next chapter will be Yor getting closure and than it will go back to slice of life.

>>280299368

>>280299454

>>280299454
Yor straight up asked Loid to take her on a date with a paper thin excuse

>>280299426
No... surely the next arc will pick up speed rather than throw us into another 6 months of SoL and meandering Damyana shipping...

>>280299552

>delaying the actual conversation to the end of the next chapter
>as usual nothing came out of it
I don't mind this series taking its time, but don't blueball us with development just to pedal back the very next chapter.

>>280299552
>We have grown rather lax about that lately.
>lately
They went on a single date.

>>280299316
>>280299164
>should we lose our strength, we would have no value at all.
Also further confirmation that he sees the pruners as disposable. I think this chapter actually does a really good job of showing Shopkeeper as extremely threatening despite his jovial personality. Not just from what he says, but also that Hemlock is clearly terrified of him here >>280299105.

>>280299426
If this gets only 2 chapters of Loid and Yor then back to school shit, I'm gonna crash out fr but it looks like its setting up for something with Yor's coworker misunderstanding.

>>280299690
They go on family ootings all the time

>>280299651

>>280299636
Not that anon, but from the looks of things, both TwiYor and DamiAnya might finally knock it off with the painful rinse and repeat.
We finally had a another TwiYor date chapter after all these years, and DamiAnya really depends on whether Damian's jealousy has actually convinced him to stop being a little bitch.

>>280299757
Family ootings, not dates. Anya is always with them so they don't spend time alone.

>>280299765

>>280299454
Man, kind of a harsh bait and switch from Endo here. I'm okay with the slow pace of the manga but when you set up something like this it feels bad to hear him go SIKE and rip it away, especially on a plot that's basically been done already. Guess it's shame on me for being fooled twice.

>>280299765
>>280299831
>Alcohol
FUCK

>>280299426
There is the possibility the "Yor meeting secretly with another man" stuff could go in an interesting direction. The office gals love their gossip, and infidelity rumors are a big deal in Ostania.

>>280295664 (OP)
Is NTR arc incoming?!?

>>280299830
That's the way it is for parents

>>280299454
Are you fucking kidding me

>>280299831

I liked this chapter more than I thought I would, but not seeing Loid's inner thoughts when asked what he wants is such a blueball. Nothing but Spy brain and fake smiles from him.

Are crumbs of real doubts, feelings, and compromise in his mind too much to ask for?

>>280299937
why can't she spend time with Loid while being sober?

>>280299937

>>280299915
They still make time to have fun on their own as long as the marriage isn't on the rocks.

I'm no psychic, but I'm certain the truth of their real lives isn't going to come out until shit really goes down, like another war, or Anya getting into some serious danger that they need to work together to save her.

>>280300013

>>280299454
I guess the Briars really are just weak to pain outside of battle.

>>280300057
Real parents, yes. But you're forgetting that right now it's just a mission for Twilight. Obviously he genuinely cares about Yor and Anya, but they mostly keep to themselves unless they need to convince nosey neighbours that they're definitely in love or Anya blackmails them because she's bored.
Real kissy kissy dates will come in time, but not yet.

It's just going to be City Hall shenanigans again. Loid is too neurotic to ever be jealous.

>>280300313

>>280300223
>But you're forgetting that right now it's just a mission for Twilight.
That's the issue, it's supposed to be the cover of a happy marriage but they went out exactly once. It's not like they stopped getting prodded about their marriage from multiple people since then either, Yor especially.

>>280300114
>he's my cousin who wanted me to test out a special skin cream he got for his sick wife.
There. Lying is easy.

Those are dates. They are the reason that we get the fucking awful Frankie babysitting chapters, because LoiLoi and Yor go on a date.

>>280300402
In the middle of the fucking street. Animals, the both of them.

>>280301076
This is by far the most clear sign of Yor developing feelings

I'm not even joking, you're probably stunted. She had feelings since like 100 chapters ago.

>>280301429
>They're not going to fuck in public
But they did? >>280300402

>>280301292
That's the point. His masks keep people at a distance and Loid is as fake as Twilight, but Yor likes the man behind both.

>>280301395
He understands them well, he cannot understand a woman he is in love with

>>280301167
Rude.

>>280301395
Not even women can understand themselves
To his credit at least he got it right that she wanted to continue their fake marriage

>>280301395

>>280301395
Really makes you think

>>280301386
Kiss next chapter

>>280301386
There's clearly another chapter in this arc anon.

>>280301473
I know, I'm just saying this is the most blatant sign so far

>>280300864
D-doesn't it?

>>280301395
You don't understand women, you simply manipulate them into sucking you off. Anything more than that is bad for your mental health.

>>280301395
There is nothing to understand, that's the issue. It's like "understanding" a dice roll, you can't predict shit.

>>280301558
Isn't this a new arc?

>>280300114
Do these girls really hang out with each other on thier days off? They don't seem that close. Workplace buddies at best.

>>280299676

This was nasty, fine do your slice of life if ypu want prolongue the manga because you finally got success, I do like character interactions but baiting people like this felt disgusting setting one full arc to get a resolution just to go
>ha ha ha get fucked
just don't bait people, nothing would have been lost if this chapter went as it did but without the need to bait any plot progression
I can't simply trust any set up at this point because the series will back track with a joke

>>280301172
Note how we stop seeing his thoughts the instant Yor asks how he personally feels. Question is, did this happen to keep us from finding out, or did he have no actual answer?

>>280301601
>>280301605
I want to breed this woman so bad.

>Twilight gives her a fake smile
>as usual it does nothing for Yor
>Yor has to continue suppressing her feelings

What an angsty ending. A genuine redacted smile would have probably ruined her and she would have had her own halo moment.

>>280300020
I thought this was gonna be loid noticing him

I legitimately think Axeman is setting up a kiss. The office ladies were the ones that created the kiss subplot in the first place, and that chapter ended with them wondering if Yor would actually do it. It feels to me like he has them here witness them kiss to bookend that. The Yor and Hemlock meeting certainly could be setting up a cheating subplot, but I think it was just done to give the OLs a reason to follow them.

>>280301473
Yeah and this chapter is where Yor truly acknowledges her feelings for Loid.

>>280301395
Yor is too pure of heart for a spy to understand.
Only Redacted can understand her.

>>280301738
>is setting up a kiss
it was obviously a set up for hand-holding

>>280300604
The freak is gonna have Loid hold Beckys hand at this rate

>>280301395

>>280301626
I think she didn't press hard enough for him to consider his real feelings. He's still in spy mode before this so he was probably weighing his options rather than really exploring them.

>>280301785
I have come from the future.
You will get a smooch on the cheek.

>>280301395
You're asking the impossible. That'd be like saying
>best spy of Westalis
>can't phase through walls and fly

>>280301429
>starting to
kek.

>>280301738
how old is that chapter?

>>280301863
Too early for that
Such serious development can't be rushed
It probably will take at the very least another 100 chapters for that

>>280301386
Six years with the cliffhanger ending where the run into the sunset refusing to admit anything and a thank you for reading the last chapter of spy x family

>>280301898
Thirty chapters ago, about two years.

>>280301429
>She's starting to fall for him
You have been saying this for at least 4 years now

>repeatedly references kissing in previous chapters
>releases chapter on international kissing day
>no kiss
Why...

is endo deserved the axe?

>>280302115
He deserves a slap by mr. editor

>>280302036
>no kiss
If only Becky were present this chapter

>>280301898
>>280302026
Forty** chapters, I misremembered the number.

>>280301558
I dunno it seems pretty conclusive to me.
Yor has decided to keep her secret hidden for longer because Twilight botched the response. So it ends on a sad note and we'll return to SoL next chapter.

Maybe the office ladies will show up to follow up on the Hemlock thing but it seems unlikely to me. At least not immediately.

>>280301987
>the run into the sunset refusing to admit anything and a thank you for reading the last chapter of spy x family
kino

>>280300497
Yor is going to crush Loid dick if she ever gives him a handjob

>>280302326
>I dunno it seems pretty conclusive to me.
This couldn't have been less conclusive.

All those close up pictures of them holding hands are now canon.
The kiss pictures will be next. Then the leglock nakadashi.

>>280300764
>So Gympie is definitely a short lady then. And not a kid.
How do you figure? She still seems like a teenager to me.

>>280301076
Loid is dense as fuck

>>280302583
I think so too
I'll be extremely disappointed if Axeman just cuts to something different and this talk isn't addressed for another 2 years

The first three quarters of the chapter were basically
>this running gag is getting old, Endo

>>280301863
>You
Gosh, anon

>>280302765
Speedrunning his greatest hits.

>>280302036

>>280301257
I liked it more than I thought, but I wasn't expecting anything but jokes two weeks ago anyway.
Thanks for dumping, anon.

I'm looking forward to Franky babysitting shenanigans.

>>280301738
Speaking of cheating subplot it's kind of weird Code White had that aborted plot thread of Yor seeing Loid with Fiona

>>280303049
Another anon summed it up better but that Code White subplot was only meant to be a tennis arc rehash but worse, since it lacks the context and payoff that justifies that arc's existence. I think Axeman doesn't realize just how well he handled that plot originally given how piss poor the movie did it.

>>280300018
Yor is a drunk wife. Honestly poor Loid, its not un irl

>>280300114
Yor is clearly a lying cheating SLUUUT!

>>280301257
DENSELIGHT

>>280301395
To be fair, with all the bullshit shes put him through, even the best would have trouble.
But likely the best answer (at least in part is >>280301489 .
He doesn't want to get compromised to the point that hes automatically lying to himself and trating the thing with even more distance than he normally would.
He had no problem playing the heart of the politicians daughter in chapter 1, but I think he would actually feel guilty "manipulating" her at this point, because by now he actually cares about her.

>>280301386
>for another year or two
You are being optimistic anon

>>280300402
MOOOOOODS!

>>280303529
>"manipulating" her
Here I clearly meant Yor, not the side character from ch1.

>>280302748
They've both just flipped a switch to turn their brains and emotions off

Yor x Sex

>Yor has feelings for Loid
I know Axeman was planning that as some big reveal but for some reason it didn't have that much of an impact

>>280303629
I mean, we knew that since the first chapter.

>>280302036
I'm feeling way more optimistic about a kiss next chapter than I was going into this chapter. As long as that happens, I'm okay with it getting pushed out two more weeks. As it stands, there was already a lot going on this chapter. We got some Garden development at the beginning, which spilled into the medicine subplot, which spilled into the office ladies seeing Yor and Hemlock together and being suspicious, which was all capped off with Yor getting introspective about her relationship with Loid.
I'm going to give Axeman the benefit of the doubt and say this wasn't stalling for once. Garden is extremely underdeveloped so him carving out more time to build up the relationships between them seems worthwhile to me. The office ladies are setting up something too.

I wish this manga was weekly

>>280303788
there is a 0% chance of we getting a kiss next chapter lol. We didn't even get loid to crack his persona =/

>>280303819
I don't wish a weekly schedule on any mangaka

>>280300402
Only took 100 chapters

>>280303629
Because Yor's feelings have been obvious for a while and even here she only goes from "I don't want to lose my place" to a less vague "I want this to continue forever".
Plus for years these threads have stated that Yor has already come as far as she can on her own and until Loid makes an effort to change they can't move forward. So him making it all about Anya again kills the momentum they had.

>>280296197
>Yor and Loid will smooch
you know this manga is gonna end with something like Loid and Yor parting ways on good terms and Yor going like
"haha so we'll meet again as friends right Loid", "yes Yor you are a good friend. take good care of Anya. I'll come visit you Anya you are also a good friend", and Anya says "yes Loid you were a good dad but it's even better when everyone's just friends, cause when you have friends and social credit you don't need a traditional family" then she looks straight into the camera and says "you don't have to breed to be happy. just work overtime and buy the merch"

>>280301172
>>280301257
Is this how men feel when they date single moms?

>>280304004

>>280304080
What do you mean

>>280303629
Yor was basically gushing about him from the start, but was too dumb to realize it. We've been waiting for years for her to get a hint.

Loid to an extent I can forgive for initially failing to properly figure out Yor since she's so fucking weird, even if by now he's had more than enough time to actually get a good read of her, because at the end of the day he still knows that his mission has a deadline and has the excuse of needing to maintain enough distance because he knows it will end eventually. Yor on the other had already drank the kool-aid before we hit double digit chapters and has been 200% into the mom role this entire time, on top of not having any particular reason to ever leave this family behind.

>>280303897
>there is a 0% chance of we getting a kiss next chapter lol.
If you're expecting a mutual mouth kiss, you're an idiot. But I now think cheek kiss from Yor is very likely. I will not, however, bet against Loid misinterpreting it.

>>280304152
this chapter had some potential for a kiss of some sort, given the date. Next chapter it's extremely unlikely given how this one ended. Yor is clearly upset she couldn't properly share her feelings and that Loid didn't show his either.

>>280304004
>you don't have to breed to be happy. just work overtime and buy the merch
The zoomer special

Alright, so now that we have confirmation Hemlock is a dreamie hottie, where's the art at?

>>280299212
I'd like to be his lover.

>>280304338
gympie is a girl

It would've been funnier if [REDACTED] realized his feelings for Yor first

I'm surprised that the Japanese women who read this haven't dropped it already. This is becoming a humiliation ritual for Yor self-inserters

>>280304099
Yeah a big fucking tank of copium. You know it's the truth. They'll never fuck. People in anime never fuck. It's either getting raped in hentai or NO SEX. NO BREEDING.

>>280304229
Be a doomer if you want, but I'm feeling good about next chapter.
>this chapter had some potential for a kiss of some sort, given the date.
Has Axeman ever done anything based on the date? I don't know why he'd suddenly start now.

>>280299164
>is Thorn Princess strong?
>...yes.
Lmao he's so disappointed about it.

Things I'm calling in the next few chapters
>Anya will resolve the tension
She reads Yor's mind during breakfast and tries to advice Loid ("you got to be more honest papa!")
>Hemlock
Yor colleagues will press her on who that guy was, and yor will come up with an awful excuse. Depending on how things turn out, Hemlock might have to meet yor's collagues in order to corroborate her lies

>>280304144
>by now he's had more than enough time to actually get a good read of her
He can already read her pretty well. He understood enough to reassure her that she could stay as long as she wants.
That's why him dodging her question feels written like an intentional move on his part. She specifically asked how he would feel and he just reiterates that he'd appreciate it.

>>280301257

Wait what does this even mean? Are we getting any closer to pregnant Yor?

>>280304831
>She reads Yor's mind during breakfast and tries to advice Loid
Anya is too bored to bother with her parents if they're not on the brink of divorce.

>>280304831
I like it when Anya gives advice to papa!

Come on Loid, even Anya understands women more than you do and she's a kid.

>>280304607
B-but Axeman worked on shoujo manga, SpyxFamily will be different!

>>280299676
"Taking its time" implies that it's ever going to get anywhere in the first place

>>280304395
Yor had too much of a headstart on him.

>>280298498
>Anya is the captain of our ship and we appreciate her support.

The captain she has the most in common with:

>>280304607
Looks like someone overdosed on shitty romcoms.

>>280304926
If Anya reads Yor’s mind and gets the impression from her thoughts that she’s thinking the marriage just isn’t worth staying in, Anya will freak out and do whatever she can to help bring the two together.

I doubt it’ll come to that - I think it will take something worse than Loid being dense for Yor to seriously consider leaving him, but if she does Anya will pull out all the stops to make sure it doesn’t happen. She’ll lie, she’ll play cute, pretend to be sick or hurt, or just tell Loid straight up what to say/do.

>>280305248
With how comically she loses it every time the topic is even mentioned, I can't help but fear the aftermath if she actually experiences it. Nothing good for Loid to say the least.

>>280305317
some shitty romcoms do end with the characters getting together desu

>>280299454
BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

>>280300991
Is there anyone who claims that Twilight loves Yor? Because he never reacts like someone in love.
I don't ever see genuine love between these two because it's just one-sided from Yor.

>>280304509
Women love being strung along, actually.

>>280304862
She's probably already pregnant. Did you see for how long did they hold hands? She's probably got triplets

>>280305422
>she’s thinking the marriage just isn’t worth staying in
Yeah and Yor is resigned to accepting what she has right now with Loid and leaving it at that. Any more is selfish to wish for in her mind, but she'll take the bare minimum if she gets to stay with the Forgers. So Anya has little need to interfere because neither that nor Loid keeping the status quo will actually jeopardize their family for her.

>>280305443
Which is why I think it's good we got handholding here instead of a kiss. Gotta work up to it. And sure Yor sweated up a storm and almost broke Loid's hand, but at least she managed to not reflexively attack him (or hurt herself to stop herself). That's progress.

>>280301395
Let me tell you boys something about women
something about women

>>280305552
> Because he never reacts like someone in love.

What do you call him seeing a halo of light around Yor and dropping to his knees after the Wheeler mission?

>>280305552
Twilight DEFINITELY has some kind of feelings for Yor, you could tell from very early on. He feels guilty for stalking her, lets his guard down around her and he can truly relax only in her presence. Hell, after the mole arc (where he spared Yuri's life purely for Yor) he literally falls to his knees when he sees Yor. She's even depicted from his POV as an angelic view, halo and all
Point is that he's way too in denial right now, but that might change

>>280303629
Not much of a reveal when we've known know they both have crushes on each other. The impact will be when they actually use the word love to describe it.

>>280305248
She's so silly.

>>280305830
mommy issues

>>280305552
Loid has...some kind of feelings for Yor. The Wheeler arc is based around the fact that he's extensively compromised over her, to the point that he's potentially putting his and his coworkers' lives in danger over it. The nature of these feelings is ambiguous, but the fact that they're directed at his designated love interest, and also that his development into being compromised is almost always around Yor, and never Anya, means we are probably meant to interpret them as romantic.

>>280305265
Anya wants to murder the Irish?

>>280305552
>I don't ever see genuine love between these two because it's just one-sided from Yor.
Because like the page pointed out, there're too many justifications he can make mission wise to keep Yor around; she's that vital to the operation despite being unaware of it.
Yor at least made an effort to cut through the bullshit excuses of their contract to ask how he felt about it, but he decided to be insincere instead. It's hard to advocate for him when not only does he actively avoid engaging with Yor, but Axeman flat out doesn't show any of his genuine feelings anymore.

>>280305552
Idk you tell me.

>>280306380
I think the imperial scholar line was telling. Loid hasn't given a fuck about Plan A in almost 100 chapters. He's even said that he doesn't expect Anya to ever become an imperial scholar. And yet, he expects Yor to stick around until she becomes one.
He wants Yor around until something he doesn't expect to ever happen happens.

>>280305552
"FOR THE MISSION" is a meme for a reason.

>>280306754
B is likelier at this point and he concedes

>>280306380
let's just admit that women get hard when a man doesn't love them
to the female mind love is weakness and dependency, while keeping a woman around to use her is the thundercock attitude

>>280305552
Twilight doesn't love Yor.
Redacted on the other hand goes weak in the knees and blushes like a schoolboy at the sight of her.

>>280301167
Loid is in his early 30's. He's already middle-aged.

>>280301799
The fuck does this mean.

>>280302326
Imagine if the office ladies hunt down Hemlock and make him date that one slut among them.

>>280301257
This is taking too fucking long. The sun will turn red before we get a kiss at this rate.

>>280301257
This ship will literally never sail after this. It’ll be at least two years before Axe brings them back to this topic.

>>280304080
No that's "can I pump and dump this dumb broad before she shows me her spawn?"

>>280307546
I actually think that this will finally lead to some substantial progress. This is not a "ahah funny" misunderstanding "fake marriage" problem, it's a legitimate issue about Yor's feelings and their marriage.
You can't gag out of this one, at least not completely: it will need some resolution, sooner or later.

>>280304080
Can't speak from experience, but probably yeah in part.
Although the main issue is clearly:
>"I'm raising another man's child"

When are we getting another Yor and Anya chapter again?

>>280300402
AAAAAAAIIIIIIEEEEEEEEEE

YURI DON'T LOOK

>>280301395
Sadly, he only knows how to pleasure them, but Yor isn't ready to open up to him like that yet.

>another chapter of Your blatantly being in love and not admitting it while Loid is oblivious
Sure love the progress this series displays. Not like we haven't already been at this point for the past two years

>>280300114
How did Roid not see any of this?

>>280309532
When has Yor ever admitted her feelings to herself like this before? She's admitted to not wanting her life with the Forgers to end, but she's never before seriously admitted to herself that she wants to know Loid feels that way about her, to know he doesn't simply appreciate her but personally wants to be with her. I think that is a pretty big deal.

>>280309833
He trusts his wife enough that when she says she's going to the bathroom he believes her

>>280309833
He can't see through buildings. Yor wandered off far enough looking for a restroom that she was "a little lost" and then Hemlock directed her to behind a building.

>>280310041
It was a big deal every other time as well but nothing has ever happened. She can think these things all she wants but if she doesn't act on them or say anything it amounts to nothing

>>280301259
It wasn't the cocktail, it was the poison that the terrorist waiter tried to kill her with and made her gunshot to the ass feel better because she has such a high resistance. She never figured out it was poison because Anya blew up the terrorist.

>>280301076
>>280301172
>are you happy being with me?
>well its good we're married because it keeps the SSS off of you
>that's not what I mean. are you happy being with me?
>Anya is happy with you
>that's not what I mean. what about you, Loid? are you happy being with me?
>I appreciate you staying with me
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

>>280312487
I hope the next issue opens with Loid's internal perspective showing him panicking behind the cool facade.

>>280303819
I just wish it was a consistent every two weeks special. Between the short chapters and breaks I feel we get less than 20 full chapters a year now.

>>280299273
I love his seething face

>>280304144
>>280304834
Problem is he loves her too even if he hasn't admitted it. He could read her feelings and if he didn't care about her he would have said something to get a confession out or confessed himself. Twilight proposed to and abandoned his previous targets daughter without a care in the world. Instead he doesn't want to hurt Yor if he has to up and leave, so instead he gives her a brush off but tries (and fails) to reassure her.

>>280306380

Sex arc when

>Hemlock apologizes for damaging the trees, trying to kill the elk, and trying to kill Thorn Princess
>Shopkeeper unbothered by the last one
>agrees that if she's weak, she's worthless
>but is willing to let McMahon just retire
Given, I assume "retire" means a quieter job like the doorman has rather than outright retiring since McMahon said he'd be wearing a mask for the rest of his life and he made it clear to Yor that total devotion to Garden wasn't optional. Still, that's a much better retirement package than the others seem to get.
>new generation
This is interesting too. This sounds like Thorn Princess, Hemlock, Gympie, and Thistle are all part of the new generation. Where's the old generation? Are they all dead?

Some uncanny statues from the SxF USJ area
As usual, Loid never looks quite right. 3D Yor Looks kinda derpy as well.

>>280313967
But if you try and get a peek at that exposed back you get stared at.

Wonder if that was intentional or happy accident.

>>280314003
And Mr. Chimera is hanging in the back.

>>280313918
>Where's the old generation? Are they all dead?

Dead or old and nearing retirement. McMahon is 66, I can’t imagine his body can keep up with this line of work much longer. He will either die in the field on assignment or have to step down before that happens, probably take the assassin equivalent of a desk job.

>>280312902
Doesn't negate any of what I said.
>Loid comes up with several different mission-related justifications to keep Yor in Strix
>completely dodges when she asks for his personal thoughts when he knows she wants to continue indefinitely
>Axeman avoids showing Loid's feelings to readers when he has to give Yor a "real" answer
Saying that Twilight did any of this just to avoid hurting her is speculation that spares him scrutiny when Yor was clearly upset by his answer. For all we know he's just being a mission brained coward who is willing to hurt Yor to avoid his own feelings as long as it doesn't cause her to leave him.

He said that way at the beginning of the manga and before Anya got tutoring from the Authens for her final exams. Since she's gotten more stars since then and even at school Anya currently thinks Plan A is the better option, they're entertaining it as a possibility again.

>>280299765
>>280299831
>wearing a turtleneck to cover her neck
Good thing it's winter.

>>280314420
>he's just being a mission brained coward who is willing to hurt Yor to avoid his own feelings as long as it doesn't cause her to leave him.
I don't think I'd mind this. Loid has lost a lot of people. It's pretty believable that he'd be a coward about letting others in. Taking that to the point where he's causing terrible pain to someone that bends over backwards for him would be an interesting character flaw. It puts the ball in his court, though. He has to not only realize Yor loves him, but also that what he's doing is hurting her. I'd say that he also has to learn to care enough to stop doing it, but I think he's there already.

>>280301257
Loid just fuck this thic bitch already.

>>280314740
Loid doesn't care about Plan A at all. What he's worried about is Anya getting expelled. Recall that at the end of the term finals, Loid only cared about the Tonitrus. He didn't care about the Stella for bus arc either.
>even at school Anya currently thinks Plan A is the better option
She said this once and it was a gag about calling Damian useless. She's still all in on Plan B.

>>280315017
I think he's long been a coward and it's part of his core personality. And it's fine for him to have it as a flaw. There's no need to defend this about him while he's messing things up.
But Axeman always lets Yor get hurt over and over while Loid is allowed to remain comfortable in their current arrangement whenever their relationship comes up. That's why the only satisfying way forward for them is for Loid to take more risks outside of his comfort zone too.

Just to clear something up, the end of this chapter is a fairly clear mirror of the end of chapter 34 (the one where Yor BTFOs Fiona in tennis), depressed Yor on the couch is now depressed Yor walking next to Loid

Besides, the City Hall girls are an unresolved loose end right now.

Chapter 35 was the flagship LoidYor moment for years, so HOPEFULLY next chapter is another 35

>>280315960
It will become more and more true at this rate, but also ironic considering that Loid's techincally the slut among the two here.

>>280315937
Good catch, anon. It is indeed exactly like 34. This arc has a lot of parallels to the tennis arc actually.

>>280316060
Twilight is the manwhore.
Loid has never had sex. Yet.

>>280315937
>Besides, the City Hall girls are an unresolved loose end right now.
I agree that the people that think this is the finale are nuts. Axeman doesn't end arcs like this. However, I think there's a 50/50 chance on the cheating thing being resolved next chapter or going on to be another subplot. I'm almost positive Yor's stupid neck wound is going to play into that.

>>280315937
Feels like it's another iteration of the end of the mole arc, but this time Yor isn't comforted by the fake smile Loid puts on. Probably because she's being more direct about the terms of their marriage and he gives her nothing different than before.
Ideally, there SHOULD be more to this scenario in the next chapter since ending it right here just reinforces what's already going on between them, but I know Axeman's strong suit isn't following through on these things. Mole arc was also a nothingburger since he won't explore what the characters went through there beyond unrelated tangents to the core issue, i.e. Loid equating interfering in Anya's competition for his mission to killing his emotions like Wheeler reminded him to do.

>>280301395
He uses them (for the Mission), he doesn't need to "understand" it.

Understanding women is gay.

>>280304250
Anal x Becky (with old men)

The sooner Loid confesses his love for Yor the sooner he can have this. What’s the fucking hold up?

>>280316127
Well, I guess regardless sex with Yor is bound to be an extreme experience that would make anyone feel like an ultravirgin again.

When is Yor going to take her clothes off?

His glowie autism.

>>280300402
MODS MODS MODS

Axeman has stated that his idea of Twilight as a character is different from the fans' idea of him.
Fans likely see him as completely smitten under the mask, but Axeman still sees him as closed off and on guard.

Which is fine and all since he shouldn't give into the whims of the fanbase so easily, but the glacial pace, refusal to touch the family, and inconsistent release schedule combined with this means Twilight comes off incredibly cold at unexpected times. Spy autism and work mode are too strong.

It's something being experienced with today's chapter for a lot of people. The glowie work mode dodging the question is definitely rubbing people the wrong way.
Personally for me it was the end of the Bus arc where he comes off as so uncaring and flippant about Anya despite him apparently rushing to the scene after his mission.

You gotta admit it is a bit polarizing to for him to display all these genuine smiles for irl years now, and we're expected to believe that he's not really softening up at all. The excuse of them only being together for about half a year sort of falls apart when he already comes off as a big sap that isn't even aware of his slip ups.
Axeman want's us to think of him as uncompromised but Twilights actions rarely show him as that. A consequence of the spy stuff and the family being pushed to the back burner.

>>280317401

>>280316624
>Feels like it's another iteration of the end of the mole arc
Not him. The feel isn't the same at all imo. Wheeler arc felt complete. The issue opened at the start was Loid fearing Yor was unhappy in their marriage, which gets resolved in 86 with them having a heart to heart, clearing up the confusion, and Loid agreeing to rely on Yor more. Loid's got an ongoing issue with his state of compromise but that's not treated like an immediate problem the way Yor's gripes were.
This chapter feels extremely unresolved, which is why so many people were unhappy. It resolves none of the issues raised. I agree with anon that it feels like chapter 34. There's an imminent threat hanging overhead like a guillotine that Loid brushed off and Yor is now drowning in.

>>280317559
>and Loid agreeing to rely on Yor more.
Except in his thoughts, he thought the opposite. He lied to her both times, anon. Readers regularly give him more growth or credit than Axeman does, so these stunted moments of his are treated as greater steps than they actually are. Mole arc was simply the first time his feelings and mission fatally intersected for him, but none of it was actually resolved, only swept under the rug.

>>280317401
>Personally for me it was the end of the Bus arc where he comes off as so uncaring and flippant about Anya despite him apparently rushing to the scene after his mission.
This is the point where I realized it as well; he's not even close to the persona he puts on as Loid, but much colder and mission-minded. He's not totally without emotions, but without true watershed moments where Loid actively chooses to let his guard down and not unintentionally, his overall character is very stagnant.

>>280317401
>so even if there is a change, it is a very subtle one
This may be Axeman's intent, but it's not how things are in practice. Yor develops subtly. I agree with what he says here >>280317444 that she develops the most and he's done that in a very gradual manner. Loid isn't like this. He doesn't develop at. All. for large stretches of time and then he has explosions. They're not huge relative to the other characters (it took him almost 90 chapters to get to where Yor was in 24), but they are for him.

>>280301395
>can’t understand women
Hes not james bond anon.

>>280317837
You're missing the point here, anon. It FELT complete. Go reread that dump thread. There weren't people expecting a follow up the next chapter because there was nothing to follow up on. This does not feel that way.
>Mole arc was simply the first time his feelings and mission fatally intersected for him, but none of it was actually resolved, only swept under the rug.
Not everything has to be resolved, just the immediate issue, which in that arc was the marital problems. If there's a follow up next chapter and Yor realizes she's in love, that's going to hang just the same.

>>280301172

>>280318323
Are people expecting a follow-up? The one thread that seems to hang is Yor's co-workers spotting her with Hemlock but even things like Fiona's severe injuries were brushed over like nothing. Some anons here feel like it's over; Yor went on a mission, thought over her marriage, and decided to keep it at the status quo. I feel like this is a stopping point where Axeman could decide to pick up a different part of the story again.

>>280319007
>cold war for decades
>Yor is a lightweight
>Bond is a guard dog
I assume this was just written by someone that watched the anime once cause it has a lot of incorrect information.

>>280319223
>Are people expecting a follow-up?
It's pretty mixed. The post that started this was someone comparing how similar this chapter was to the semi-final chapter of tennis arc. I checked the dump for that chapter and it ironically also had a lot of people thinking that was the end or it was starting a new arc. History repeats.

>>280319223
Personally I am not expecting a follow up 2 weeks from now. To me this chapter is Yor deciding to continue living a lie and bottling up her feelings for the foreseeable future.
Though sad this does resolve her current issues about her marriage because it makes her just like McMahon, and that's the best she thinks she can do. She is unsatisfied but will suffer in silence.

I would be shocked if the next chapter picks up where we left off.

McMahon doesn't really bottle up his feelings that much though. He keeps his job secret, but outside of that his relationship and love for his wife is genuine and displayed. Feels like Yor would be opting for even less happiness than him if she is doing what you suggest.

>>280301257
Is the filler over now?

>>280321075
>>280321473
The closest thing to sex we will likely ever see these two engage in.

>>280321550
Well yeah she's in a marriage without love and she still has to hide her secret. Which is what she assumes is the best she can do since the arrangement is unclear.
So she has the McMahon deal but worse.

>>280321822
What filler?

next chapter when the girls are accusing Yor of cheating on Loid she will say she loves him and would never cheat when flustered and McMahon will cover for Yor and say the girls must have seen his assistant.

>>280301863
How far in the future? 5 years?

The most disappointing thing about this chapter is that the OLs didn't recognize Hemlock so he probably doesn't work at City Hall.

>>280322360
he does now, as McMahon's assistant, to cover for Yor

>>280301863
By that time Becky will be having Loid's 3rd kid.

>>280299212
It's not translated here, but in the original, Gympie calls Yor "Iba-nee". So Gympie seems to look up to Yor very fondly.

>>280322565
I like the way you think, anon.

>>280322565
No! That'll interfere with his solitude power!

>>280320281
I'm not

>>280322640
>Iba-nee
This is disgustingly cute. I kind of got the impression from Hemlock's denied but obvious protectiveness of her that she's like the little sister of Garden. I hope we get to see her and Yor interact more in the future.

>this entire manga
It's always entertaining but god damn I honestly hope sales start dropping so that the mangaka finally starts moving it forward.

>>280323128
That already did happen which is probably why there has been bursts of "Happening" lately.
They result in very little but the attempt to get attention is there.
But volume sales have been declining for a while now and have sort of plateaued until the incoming S3 anime boost brings them back up again.

>>280322708
>Hemlock accidentally falls into a marriage with Millie

>>280299937
Trying to recall if Loid ever had Yor tell him about welcome home kisses. I guess she could've said it off screen in the mole arc.

>>280323793
I think her drunken rambling this chapter was the first time he has heard of it

>>280301172
just imagine Yor's reaction from a kiss, let alone an unprompted hug from Loid when she's not inebriated. What would she do?
>>280324023
I don't want Hemlock NTR, pls....

BOOM.

>>280324614
Yor is now pregante

>>280324382
>I don't want Hemlock NTR, pls....
Hemlock will be NTR'd out of his lone wolf lifestyle when he accidentally marries Millie

>>280299735
It's no great secret. Hell, I get the impression that Shopkeeper plays favorites with them and Hemlock is better liked than Yor because his ideals are more in line with Garden's MO. Shopkeeper's response makes me feel like his question wasn't rhetorical; he was genuinely asking Hemlock whether Yor was still strong in their fight.

>>280324658
Loid TANKED that.

What should the next movie be about?

>>280325317
Loid and Yor helping each other with their tax returns and its just two hours of lying about each deductible

>>280323128
Next chapters are really make or break to determine if he's going to write a story or to drag out the bait forever to become the next Conan. I'm so used to nothing happening that I'm already expecting this to get quietly dropped outside another gag chapter regarding the OLs and Hemlock.
It's frustrating because it's so clear what Axeman has to do with the characters and the story yet it's always this waiting game with him. If he just reached these points then the story could take off in just about any direction he wanted barring tragic.

How will Yor pay for all the sins she committed?

>>280326088
Yor only kills those who deserve death

>>280300402

>>280300813
>half a year

>>280301395
Yor is a special kind of retard beyond the beyand the boundries.

>>280317941
In order to see a change in Twilight you have to utterly break him. Like Kaneki it tg part 2

>>280321936
There's no way she won't act like she's been stabbed (in the heart). Yor is very transparent and Anya will notice and feel uneasy like when twilight spied on her.

>>280301172
>Yor 100% knows he's closing himself off from her.
He used to be a better liar but maybe that's giving her too little credit since he sincerity radar is usually on the mark.

>>280326541
>In order to see a change in Twilight you have to utterly break him.

>>280322849
Garden character relations are not very professional, yet I can't put my finger on how exactly to classify their dynamic. It's too hostile to say familial, but there's still some nurturing going on from the older members to the younger ones. Some kind of warped apprenticeship maybe.

>>280319306
Cuties

>>280301164
The best lies contain a grain a truth; Yor can tell the harpies that she knows him from her mysterious job that she did to put Yuri through school.

>>280299651
>"You need to get it right this time, Twilight!"
>"You can do this!"
>completely fumbles Yor in the end
Sasuga Westalis's No.1 Spy.

>>280327586
that's why I believe McMahon will do the rescue, Yor cannot lie.

>>280327798
I'd like McMahon to smooth it over if only to learn what civilian name Hemlock is supposed to have outside of the organization.

>>280327932
any more art of him with an egg on his forehead?

>>280301340
Wait i thought she already have a boyfriend?

>>280327982
Keekee is so cute.

>>280328430
She's the office slut, she changes boyfriends like she changes underwear.

>>280300361
>Loid is too neurotic to ever be jealous.
I wonder. The brief set up with Hemlock is just vague enough to generate suspicion that Yor can't immediately explain away.

>>280300020
>"So that's your husband?"
Who else would it be?

>>280300497
>Dammit! Did I push her too far?
It's almost like they should've been practicing.

>>280327502
The relationship between the pruners feels somewhat sibling like to me, but in a pack of wolves type way. They bicker like children with an edge to it in that they will actually kill each other, though that's not taken as an offense at all. Hemlock beat the shit out of Yor and she didn't hold it against him in the slightest. Gympie wasn't really mad at him either. Nor was Hemlock angry at Yor's retribution.
McMahon feels more mature and human. He's quietly protective though also scolding. His relationship with Yor feels simultaneously professional and paternal.
Shopkeeper is more sinister.

>>280329992
shop keeper looks weird.
He does have a dark skin and extremelly curly hair wich could signal some sort of African mutt but he also has a very narrow nose and thin lips which negate the former assumption.
Could his weird looks indicate he was disfigured by accident of botched plastic surgeries ?

>>280295664 (OP)
Will we finally get some plot progression bros?

>>280299454
Two more weeks and something meaningful will happen, trust me guys

>>280329283
I agree. If Yor seems unhappy, and she is definitely very unhappy right now, and Loid finds out she was seen with another man, I think that would at the very least make him nervous. Especially considering their recent conversation about how long their marriage would last. It's worth noting that Yor never actually said she wanted it to continue and though Loid guesses correctly that she does, she's very noncommittal about the whole thing verbally.
It's a situation rife with opportunity for him to look back on and assume he was wrong.

>>280300402

>>280301257
You just know that next chapter is going to completely ignore this, or worse: a short chapter, or even worse: a fucking break.

>>280330529
Kiss in two weeks. Trust me, Axeman's my uncle.

>>280330327
Not even joking, I think Loid and Yor would benefit from Loid losing his confidence in their marriage. Yor is content to stay unchanged because she thinks Loid only wants her as a mother, and she's right. That's all he needs from her now.
But with Hemlock, Loid can't fix it just by seducing her anymore either because Yor could want a relationship with someone that isn't Loid Forger. He brought up the chin kick this chapter too, so he still believes she's not romantically interested in him specifically.

>>280300402
>Interlocked public handholding.

Way to fucking lewd.

Exciting developments

>>280308612
Gimme a Yor, Anya and Henderson chapter, Becky can be there too maybe

>>280314003
Heh

>>280323251
>They result in very little but the attempt to get attention is there.
To be fair, all major HAPPENING incidents have been very recent. The Garden expansion and associated lore drop happened in the current arc and the Desmond reveal happened in the arc just before it. Axeman's habit of jumping around doesn't help, but I think it's too early to say either is off the table.
I think the poaching problem was deliberately left open to give Axeman a chance to play with Garden in one-offs in the future, though I have a feeling the next major thing with them will be Yor's backstory, whenever that ends up being. Maybe we'll get Thistle before then.
I could see Melinda continuing to pop in occasionally as she has up to this point, though hopefully more often, and the therapy sessions continuing.
Anya's mind-reading confession will probably be a nothingburger until very lategame at best, and we'll find out next chapter if Loid and Yor's relationship drama is getting deferred or if this turns into something.

It's still Axeman so there will be plenty of stalling in between, but hopefully the declining sales keep his ass in gear.

>>280319248
Is yor not a lightweight?
is it more that she drinks to excess? in that case it might be more of a censorship thing, less family friendly to say she drinks too much than to say she can't handle her drink

>>280325646
I'd watch that if it was no more than 90 minutes, I couldn't handle 2 hours of it

>>280314003
Kino.

>>280331656
>is it more that she drinks to excess?
Yes.

>>280308612

>>280325122
>Shopkeeper just constantly looking for an excuse to kill Yor
It's funny that "re-education" isn't a thing in Garden. It seems like it'd be much easier to retrain Thorn Princess than replace her almost 15 years of experience. He really hates her family.

>>280331998
Killing her isn't what he wants, he wants assurance she is still strong. He seems satisfied so long as that remains the case. Notice he has no objection to Gympie advising reconciliation and treating her wounds.

>>280299212
Franky's future wife

>>280300402
INTERLINKED

>>280332528
>small
>childish facial proportions
>weaker
>calls Yor iba-nee
>talks of lovers in terms of boyfriends vs Yor and Hemlock that talk about them in terms of husbands and wives
>we know Garden recruits kids
It is overwhelmingly clear at this point that she's a teenager. Franky is stuck with Fiona.

>>280332959
I think she's just a short woman in her late teens and early 20s

>>280301257
>that last panel of Yor
I kneel Axeman. That is pure kino.

>>280322248
Based beyond belief.

>>280322640
What does it mean? G*ogle does not answer for some reason.

>>280333221
In the face of everything that says she's not? Why?

>>280333648
You gonna assume Franky is a teen because he's short?

>>280333819
Franky does not look or act like a kid. He's just a manlet. Are you assuming Demetrius is a short adult?

>>280333522
Something like "Big sis Thorn" I think.

>>280334008
Iba is a shortened form of Ibara so it would probably be something cutesy like big sis Thorny.

>>280299105
I like how the 2 leaves on his head make him look like an animal with it's ears down in defeat.

>>280300402

Thank you for posting.

>>280327932
It's funny that they refer to each other by their codenames even outside of work. Seems like a great way to get caught.

>>280332391
Oh for sure. I'm just saying that if she wasn't still strong, wouldn't it be better to just put her back into training to fix that? Unless you mean the greentext. That was a joke.

>>280299212
I get the poison resistance, but why medicine? Is there that much crossover between the ingredients?

>>280303473
>Yor is clearly a lying cheating SLUUUT!
She truly is, I mean just from the way she dresses and I've heard the most awful rumors about Yor's true job. Going out at night and coming back home covered in fluids...

>>280332391
>he wants assurance she is still strong
>just tested her a few months ago
Clearly he also thinks it's a matter of time until her family weakens her beyond usefulness. They started the arc acknowledging she's still getting less assignments than usual.

>>280332959
>It is overwhelmingly clear at this point that she's a teenager
Legal in Westalis and Ostania.

Ship is dead and Loid isn't straight.

>>280338936
There's a saying that "the dose makes the poison". There are a lot of medicines that are just small controlled doses synthesized from toxins and poisons, a lot of pain meds especially.

>Axeman still hasn't posted his doodle

>>280340706
His hand is being turned to dust and you're worried he doesnt have a boner

>>280339655
Fewer, and McMahon doesn’t seem to think it’s a problem. If Shopkeeper doesn’t have work for Yor, he doesn’t have work. He calls her when he has something.

>>280340805
this is after they let go
Yor's hand is red because she's nervous and embarrassed
Loid's hand is red because of the imminent swelling from his broken fingers

>>280340875
McMahon seems like he has a soft spot for Yor based on how he kept siccing Keekee on Hemlock. Even if it was a problem, he'd probably still defend her.

>>280340742
He was late last time too.
I hope it's of Gympie because I want to see her color palette.

>>280341290
I suspect her color pallet might be based on the plant

>>280341290
I want to see her naked but you don't hear me talk about it.

>>280341290
Oh that would be great. Maybe he's taking longer because it is Gympie and he's finalizing it.

>>280341657
Are we going to get a second pink haired character?

>>280341783
Maybe, although her hair is more like the leaves so possibly green hair instead

Why is everybody being so damn miserable? You'll most likely get a little more next chapter. That didn't really feel like an end of an arc page.

>>280342253
Another one for the list

>>280342330
>Why is everybody being so damn miserable?
Because we know what Axeman is like. He loves the status quo. Which is what this chapter is. Yor has ensured that the status quo will continue despite her own wants and needs. The happy little family full of lies will stay that way because Yor has decided it would be selfish to ask for more.
It's the perfect excuse for Axeman to fuck off and write about something else. I would love to be proven wrong but I'm sure I won't be. Please Axeman prove me wrong and have them talk and clear up this misunderstanding. Have that anal retentive Spy emote some more.

>>280342330
>That didn't really feel like an end of an arc page.
It didn't in the slightest, but you know how doomers are. I get that Axeman is a hack, but this is ridiculous.

>>280300402
/d/ is down the hall and to the right.

>>280340757
If fanon was true, his pelvis would be being turned to dust instead. But it'll never happen.

>>280333819
Franky fought in the war so we know he's around Loid's age.

>>280299212
>Gympie wants a lover
>>280332959
>Hemlock wonders if he'd be stronger if he gets married
Looks like Shopkeeper's going to have to play cupid with this new generation.

>>280343401
I also thought this was an obvious hint

>>280343401
McMahon was always the most well adjusted no contest and Yor also evened out once she got a husband, so it looks like that's the answer here, yes.

I think the breeding fetish shit around this fanbase is really creepy

>>280343618
I'm predicting that Yor will play off meeting Hemlock as an old friend who was giving Yor a present from his girlfriend who she also knew from childhood.

We will then eventually get a double date arc where Loid flubs it again but progress is made with HemGym.

This will later evolve into a HemGym wedding arc that doubles as a powderkeg meeting place for Garden, Wise, SSS, NUP etc, which will also turn into a nothingburger besides the cute new married couple being happy.

>>280342330
The change in setting probably has people confused. Most long arcs take place mostly in one place and then go somewhere else for the epilogue. This is not always the case, but it usually is, which is likely why people see all these open plotlines and think they're pointing to the start of a new arc rather than this one going on a bit longer.

>>280343086
I would think /d/ is in a metaphorical basement level a few floors down.

>>280343880
Shippers just want to get to the sex. That's all they want. No missions, no assassinations. Just sex.

If anything these past chapters that have shed more light on Garden have made me extra wary of shopkeeper. Any hypothetical collab between WISE and Garden just got more unlikely considering how quick he is in attempting to dispose of his own.

Like I don't see him not attempting to slaughter Twilight on sight.

>>280344006
Speak for yourself. I want joint missions. As do all those fan-artists that draw joint missions.

>>280343910
Yor is a terrible liar, no way she’ll be able to come up with a cover story like that. She will need McMahon’s help. Who knows what he’ll say, but it should be entertaining.

>>280344042
>I want joint missions.
I gave up on these outside of the obligatory team up to save Anya mission long ago. Like you said, Shopkeeper is just not going to be willing to play ball with WISE.
