But the fact ONE is showing us the Forest getting rekt like that means that there is another stronger Forest out there who's actually destroying the Parasite somehow.
So god is chaotic neutral

the last page
>>280900407GOD FEET GOD FEET
>>280900399No, there are many Forests.
>>280900375Either that or the other forests are undergoing rapid evolution to counter the parasites.
>>280900433>Jachi on his quest to wreck shit from every worldFuck yes
>>280900407God, i wish for you to be my waifu!
>>280899660Huh? Heidi actually managed to destroy the robot even though she was taken down too, so danger level 3 was probably that of the other neo humans the robot killed before.
>>280900375That was the weakest forest of the four named, yes.
I think the ranking of the one they have near now was #2.
>>280900375I'm hoping we get a situation where one of the forests just adds Parasites to the ecosystem because having worms is just normal for the animals. Like crocodiles or sharks.
>>280900433Jachi face looks like he is so done with all this bullshit, probably just wants to see his hero again
>>280900118>we want the fujo audience
>>280900406No, and they didn't give a rank, they just said that the verdant forest is the safest.
>>280900433>What happened to my fairy tale I was supposed to have a fated battle with the hero, this is bullshit
I wonder if ONE is trying to set up a situation where certain characters with a powerful will can become infected but retain their minds?
Also I thought for sure Heidi was a failure Neo Human who escaped. It was that she had pupils and eyebrows, making her look more like a human. Sheโs probably still going to be protagonist side though. Frankly they should stop making Natural Enemies into friendlies, that will cause a slide into standard shounen fare.
>>280900486Actually, the third wish isnt that bad, if they play this right they may get a stable period for once
Like telling the god about the demon king palace, literally fucking heretics
saw these posted in an earlier thread and ran them through gpt and photoshop https://tieba.baidu.com/photo/p?kw=%E5%A4%A9%E6%95%8C%E6%8A%97%E6%88%98%E8%AE%B0&flux=1&tid=8999002100&pic_id=eab9a07a02087bf46bc1bed5b4d3572c11dfcf88&pn=1&fp=2&see_lz=1&post_id=150201083053#!/pideab9a07a02087bf46bc1bed5b4d3572c11dfcf88/pn1
the names are a translation invention because they translated to things like "parasite world", "kengan world", or "monster world"
I wanted to change mob's NE name to the "the hero" or something like that because side character-kun and MR.Background extra sounded lame
https://imgur.com/a/2nc8pk2
>>280900375One of the Forests will develop a Predator that preys strictly on Super-Wurms due to their high amount of nutrients from the tons of creatures they've absorbed. With some giga-powerful stomach that can dissolve the Parasite completely or something.
>>280900448Yeah, when the threat of Gaiaโs Wrath was described, it wasnโt simply that humanity always lived with these giant beasts and man-eating plants, but that nature suddenly growing wildly out of control.
Some natural enemies start off extremely high, God being the most obvious example,โbut a lot of the โlower tierโ natural enemies are defined by their growth and/or learning abilities, so if the world of Gaiaโs Wrath isnโt meant to simply become biomatter fodder for the parasites, itโs definitely gonna rise up to evolve in the face of adversity.
>>280900044The patterns moving on Yaotsu's body will kill any hope for a good anime adaptation if that is ever floated.
>>280900534I thought so too seen she see shorter compared to other neos right? I think they are supposed to be taller than your average human
>>280900445its been so long that i dont even remember the other two
>>280900534>It was that she had pupils and eyebrows, making her look more like a humanApparently this is because she is a superior version of the neo humans, she even managed to destroy the advanced robot here
>>280900478 her brother is the administrator of a city so it makes sense.
I want to see what some of the non-Jaichi demons are up to soon. They are the only intelligent Natural Enemy with access to magic (except maybe the robots) and might be having fun with the Parasites instead of getting rolled like the other biologicals.
>>280900048Parasites are the kind of threat that need to be suppressed before it grows out of control. Something of Goutโs level should definitely be easy to take care of by a Demon King, but given how large the world is, itโs conceivable that one can continue to grow and incorporate abilities from different threats to start actually mattering among the actual big threats of each faction.
Parasites are pretty much an improved Diganazal, really.
Daikokuzan remains undefeated
>>280900688ehh, if Parasites can't produce anything even after consuming someone intelligent they are reallly only a threat to humans and chaff. Even if they go full Kaiju after eating a few forests the robots or aliens will probably just nuke it to dust.
>>280900375Wasn't there a volcano?
Just a reminder that yaotsu isn't the only god of indignia, the humans there prayed to 'something else' for once and thanks to that they merged with the other worlds
>>280900759They seem to become more resilient and harder to kill the larger they become, and that was before the Super Wyrm developed. So yes, factions like the robots and the aliens would just need to nuke it to dust, but that just leads to what I said about the parasites needing to be suppressed before one grows too large. Plus, the ones who would have the most leisure to be able to take the parasites on at their strongest potential form, like God or the Demon Emperor, are also the ones with the least initiative to do anything about them in the first place.
Something tells me Madaran war-forms in the those subjugation teams are going to start showing up all over the world and cause an utter clusterfuck. Maybe the survivors will be forced into a corner with the apocalyptic combat happening amongst the high-power Enemies and the Madarans and out of desperation they escape intoโฆthe Game.
>>280900433This is the third time one has done this with jachi
>power natural enemy is introduced against jachi as a cliffhanger>they fight, it seems the natural enemy might give him a strong fight>he jobs
>>280900956> he jobsFake news
Jachi never jobs
>>280900948>Something tells me Madaran war-forms in the those subjugation teams are going to start showing up all over the world and cause an utter clusterfuck.

>>280900956Jachi does not job.
>>280900675I'm guessing that 11 non seen demon generals have fallen or are falling to one of the other natural enemies.
But probably we're getting only monkey girl and maybe another one before his fall.
>>280899633Danger level 3 - Heidi
Danger level 4 - Green forest birds
Danger level 6 - Kiva
Danger level 10 - Jachi
>>280900987>>280901005I meant the natural enemy, hallow, that giant, that alien
>>280901013>>280901013IDK if 3 is really Heidi's danger level.
Consider
>>280900478It looks more like the robot judged the other neo humans and thought Heidi was the same before fighting her or something because she destroyed the robot.
>>280901013great, we got powerlevels, ONE has spend too much time with Murata
How would the various NEs place in OPMโs Disaster Level system?
>>280901091This is powerlv the manga anon
>>280901013Im not sure Jachi is really 10. That might just be the highest level they got.
>>280900738Are there multiple kaijus or is he the only one?
>>280900375One said that there would be a break in the balance of power, meaning that some NEs would be more powerful than over NEs. It's forestover
>>280901160pretty sure he is the only one but they havent been clear about that
>>280901141I think giants are demon or dragon level. Kiva would probably be dragon level.
>>280901091That's if you believe the robots
>>280901209Why would you not believe them? They are your friends.
>>280901091That's just the robot's perspective in the moment limited by their robotic thinking, and enemies have been straight up wrong about shit before like the Madalans saying most things aren't really a big threat
>>280901151That's just Jachi with his cape, and even with his cape there's a big difference in his combat capabilities depending on whether he fights seriously or not.
The levels probably also refer to an exponential increase in power with each level.
I just had a thought. Wouldnโt it be cool if there was some level of crossover with other ONE works? Like maybe a Bug Ego magician appears from the Curse world, or Machine Gods appear to support the robots, etc.
>>280900094>>280900118Final twist of the Lawless arc is that their world had no Natural Enemy it was just a shitty Mad Max world and the "good" humans fucked up and got everyone killed by doing the ritual.
>>280901271>manga ends with Saitama showing up and deleting every natural enemy on the planet in a matter of minutes
>>280901249And that robot was clearly wrong because it was destroyed by Heidi even if it took her down with itself.
>>280901271God, I hope not.
>>280900099I think Magic World is the best suited to take out each of the threats due to their human intelligence and absolutely WIDE level of abilities. Demon Lords are just free for alling way too hard and I doubt Jachi's blobfish friend is feeding actual info to anybody
>>280901271This is already Attack of the Titan VS Skynet VS Godzilla VS...
I don't think it needs more things.
>>280900759They will merge into a Daikokuzan sized being.
It will be Godzilla vs mecha-godzilla vs Parasite kaijuu
>>280899633>>280900044>Catwalk Slut Heidi>Bratty Femboy GodMy dick is confused
>>280901013im pretty sure they update the danger levels in real time
>>280901271I absolutely do not want this series to crossover with any of this shit or confirm it's actually a prequel to OPM or some gay shit considering how raped the property is at this point.
>>280901151Robots are all about efficiency and I wouldn't be surprised if the level 10 threat mode was just the strongest thing Skynet produced to take out humans since first panel of this chapter is the AI reevaluating threat levels, every instance we've seen since the first battle are the bots getting wrecked or barely killing their opponents I think because Skynet wants to destroy threats with the lowest energy expenditure. I wouldn't be surprised if next chapter we got Jaichi stomping out everything but taking a minor injury then flashing through a bunch of similar fights against other threats and a new set of robots being built in an automated factory somewhere.
>>280901372I think Heidiโs outfit was meant to be daring even for Neo Humans. I wonder if their dress indicates social standing or if itโs just an expression of individuality?
I feel bad for the guy who just wanted his brother back, and the guy who wanted a home, but I still want yaotsu to no diff everyone else
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JGAaNRSW_HU
Going by this ad Versus did for Japan that teases God vs Game, I suppose they'll get Yaotsu to fuck off for a while by stalemating him when one of the random Game World humans start muttering about needing help to beat the game
are parasites the strongest foe they seem to be fucking everyone up the ass recently
>>280901145nah, unlike actual powerlevel faggotry, the enemies aren't beaten by "who can punch the strongest", but by using their own unique abilities against each other. It's pretty much the anti-thesis to modern day versus discussions despite the title
>>280900620Anime is pretty likely at this point given it won that award. At the end of the day they could just make his patterns static outside of when he uses an ability or something, wouldn't be a huge change. Bigger issue would be stuff like Daikokuzan being cgi
>>280900534>>280900645I mean, currently, Human are so fucking weak, they got destroyed
>>280901515it's only getting rid of the fodder
>>280901515Parasites are the early filter for organic enemies who are retarded enough to eat random parasite affected things or go into close melee combat with them if they're infectable.
Some Demons and Aliens have long range nuking abilities which hard counter them.
I wonder what the Game is going to be? An isekai? Straight-up Tron?

>>280901641The gamers seem really fat, so I assumed they are stuck into a chair playing VR all day
>>280901360>Parasite kaijuudaikokuzan clears any parashite slop.
>>280901641Itโs going to be like GANTZ.
Absolutely no one should sleep on the Robots. Theyโre the only NE that operates on pure logic with no emotions, no confusion, no arrogance, etc, who can view their situation with pure objectivity. Perfect unity of society, strong communications and strong tech base. The Madarans are higher in food chain, but they suffer from terrible arrogance.
>>280901343Dang, that sounds retarded, considering how weak Titans are (though it might be more about how Ymir, who peaked at releasing the pigs, is a retard who never bothered to use her source of life powers for anything clever). But then, why that retard or her unwitting puppets would want anything to do with a world-spanning robo-empire? Also, I just remembered that Matrix humams bloated out the sky hoping the robots would weaken enough and then ate shit some more while didans kinda like that additional boost of power from sunlight.
>>280901943Nah the gamers are american tier fat, they are not fit for survival games like gantz
Whatever The Game ends up being, it has to be something that can affect you on a psychological or physical level. Out of all of the natural enemies there's nothing we've seen that could come even close to matching with Yaotsu, so it makes sense for The Game to be his one counter.
>>280902013Meant to say spiritual*, not physical. Physical is the exact sort of things that wouldn't work, unless it can somehow bypass your biology?
>>280900433All Jachi wants is his fated enemy and these outsiders keep getting in the way.
>>280899855Both rinri and this kid were able to retain their mind despite being infected, I think this is forshadowing for a strong natural enemy to merge with a super worm in the future
>>280901981>considering how weak Titans areginbak alone is above demon general tier and many of his sons are probably a lot stronger than we've seen
>>280901978Robots are the ones with the most info out of any faction since even random fodder mooks can get ground level analysis back to HQ instantly. Also them somehow bullshitting up a magical barrier after getting hit by a fireball once is insane
>>280902067Itโs funny because the purpose of the Maou (Demon King) is to fight the Yuusha (Hero). An absolute basic staple os isekai.
>>280902122the foreshadowing is rinri becoming the parasite god
>>280901993I was thinking it would trap players into playing games over and over with the ability to respawn them. This would lead to it trapping NEs and survivors into endless games too that could turn into GANTZ style missions as it expands. But upon reflection, I remembered the fat game world guy saying how he had to get back and retry. So, maybe itโs addicting them in some way? Then again, they havenโt had any scene showing them bothered that theyโre not playing.
>>280902141Not the Versus Titans, the Keep Moving Forward till 80% of enemies titans.
>>280902187I feel like it's gonna be something like, as the parasite develops within Rinri, and faces worse threats from elsewhere, it decides it needs to hand over control of the hivemind to something super intelligent. And given the Robots and the Madarans aren't capable of being parasitized, it'll end up with Rinri taking control.
>>280902122The brother has been cursed.
>>280900407Imagine asking God to have sex with him and he grants your wish but the monkey paw is that he gets pregnant and now you have to take responsibility and raise the child along with your god waifu haha it would be so prankster lol
>>280902243It could be the matrix situation, as the game enslaved human in their vr gameworld for unknown reason
>>280901641A mobile mega-structure that can trap things inside.
The inside is an extending space where The Game has full control and can set the rules, etc.
>>280902482I hope we get more game info soon, itโs definitely one of the more mysterious settings.
>>280900157>>280900189>>280900285>>280900407Hozouin's genius is pretty strong and godly even without his spear after he lets his hair down, huh. This Tenkaichi is shaping to be an interesting one.
>>280902634Gaia too, all we know so far is that it's roots are spreading everywhere and drinking it's sap restores mana.
>>280901854The Madalans are more like the Necrons, the robots are more like the Men of Iron from the dark ages of technology.
The demons may be closer to the imperium with their great Demon King and all.
Heidi can be redeemed with my paleo-human cock
>>280899775Parasites wrecked the mage girl killer, unless two of those clowns just dressed similarly.
>>280901641It's going to be revealed that they are already in the game and have been the entire time
>>Indignia people imagine their God to be a twink instead of bearded grandpa
What did they mean by this?
>>280900068I'm starting to like this dude. It's easier when he's the underdog and can't bully the weak. I should enjoy it while it lasts because he's opportunistic as fuck.
Will the heroes take the chance and ask god to take down the Demon King and see what happens?
>>280901854Half of these are extremely retarded comparisons.
>>280900157Smart phrasing
>>280900594>kengan worldI can't wait for Shen to talk about how unfathomable not!Godzilla is before killing it in a single blow and then bombing every universe's equivalent of Italy
>>280903042Smartest choice

>>280902960>kill the weakftfy, a gruesome death awaits him
>>280901523>nah, unlike actual powerlevel faggotry, the enemies aren't beaten by "who can punch the strongest", but by using their own unique abilities against each other. It's pretty much the anti-thesis to modern day versus discussions despite the titlec'mon, I like this but don't try to be disingenuous, this is peak shounen slop
The god is evil enough with this introduction but I think next chapter we will see why he is truly feared. I dont think he can be exploited to kill other enemies that easily either.
>>280900948>out of desperation they escape intoโฆthe Game.It's my theory that they're all already in the game, and it'll be revealed when everything's gone wrong as a way to roll back via a 1-up or some shit.
Otherwise I don't know what justifies having literally no appearances or info on the game world outside of the initial exposition dump and a couple of background NPCs. Maybe ONE's waiting for a couple of natural enemies to get wiped out first, so he can introduce game world as a new threat to change things up
>>280900407I wouldn't really mind worshipping him, but his lack of common sense or maybe alien values makes him really dangerous.
Will one following shounen trope and redeem Haidi?
Or will he suversing and make her still evil while convincing the guy to join her side
>>280902678Gaia also has roots in daikokuzan which will be an interesting development
>>280903508Judging from other one works she is almost certainly to be redeemed
With my human cock of course
>>280903508Im like 95% sure she will switch sides, its ONE's specialty after all
>>280899775I think neo humans will be the first "natural enemy" to join forces with the humans, if only because they're clearly not going to survive alone, and they seem reasonable enough not to kill humans
>>280903823I dont see this happening. none of the natural enemies will ever join forces with the humans, it would kill the whole point of the manga. Maybe individuals will like heidi, and maybe they will have temporary alliances like with the demons vs aliens , but not any permanent team ups.
>>280903823I think Demons first, Neo-humans second. They were basically allied against the Mandarins, and Kiva gave the flute at the last moment. Rogen also seems intelligent enough to realize the threat of NEs beyond just "play things" like the mobs we see parasited. Lawless is still on the table too.
>>280904011Demons won't ally with humans, they have the weakest basic troops and are eating tons of losses but they eat people.
>>280899660But seriously these guys couldn't realize she is neo human? She is next to robot pieces. A normal human can't destroy robots.
Plus even when her clothes is torned, it is still easy to see how weird it is. Only neo humans have that weird fashion sense
>>280900842God took it away when he made the home.
>>280904011There wont be a whole faction joining
May be more honorable demon like Jachi will consider temporary alliance
>>280903823Funny of you to downplay Neo-Humans' capabilities with the fucking Lawless being right there in this chapter.
>>280904065>>280904212Temporary alliance with sub-faction, there will never be a full alliance with any faction. Neo-humans still largely think lowly of Humans and there's no way they'd give up on their favorite past time. Demons are still largely superior and once threats are dealt with they'd inevitably start hunting humans once again.
>>280900620lol just AI CGI BRUH
>>280900620>>280904467That easy, just put a layer of cgi for his skin, if used right it could even add that uncanny feeling for God
>>280899775Wonder why Rogen got those stitches like he was a cyborg? I thought neo human donโt modify themselves because they are already perfect?
>>280904169Trauma from neo humansโ cruelty made them all goody goody because they donโt want to be like them.

>>280904723What? We've seen tons of Neo-Humans with customization, piercings, tattoos and stuff.
>>280899872>>280899895>>280899966The parasite designs never fail to dissapoint, they always look so grotesque in a cool way.
I wonder how Nature will adapt to them, maybe they'll develop poisonous blood or extremely high body temp
>>280904776We're soon going to see the tech level of Neo-Humans.
They're going to have a weaponized parasite and will start mastering magic at a scientific level with their dissection of Ario.
>>280904857both the crimson and verdant forests have been taken by the parasites. can't imagine any of the other forests will fare much better.
>>280899729>>280899750Glad to see Ario again. I thought it would be a lot longer.
>>280904866They're already struggling with
>>280899775, they aren't weaponizing it anytime soon.
>>280900433>robot gets a named characterIs like 40k when gw thought Necron would be boring without personality and so they changed them into space Egyptian with lots of named characters.
>>280904831I just realized, may be these neo human are clones? All came from sth they considered โthe perfect geneโ
>>280900533I donโt think Jiachi missed the hero that much since he was having a blast fighting every NE. He only wants to find the hero so he could punish him for destroying his army.
>>280905075Nay he was gay as fuck for the hero
Verdant Forest really is the weakest forest.
Not only are most of the animals we've seen in it giant versions of either small animals on Earth (birds, snakes, insects and such) but the lord of the Forest is a herbivorous mammal with a quite peaceful reputation (not that actual elks are peaceful at all, they're dangerous as fuck and both agressive and deadly, but in countries that don't have them, they're mostly associated with gentle stuff due to their appearance that is close to a deer).
Now you take the Forest adjacent to the Lawless territory and a (probably) fodder animal in there is a fucking bear. That whole Forest is likely mostly oriented towards carnivorous predators and big animals (turned even bigger). The Lord there might be a fucking tiger or something like this. AND instead of having a zombified bear from the get go, the Parasite had to wait for the bear to die first in order to take over the body, which is already a sign that the predators there are much stronger and harder to infect than those of the verdant Forest.
Every Forest above that, like the Stygian one where the Madaran team disappeared, will have even stronger "families" of beasts with even higher resilience to the Parasite.
tl;dr
>Verdant Forest: Mostly herbivorous or small animals, get zombified instantly by Parasite. Lord: an elk.
>Crimson Forest: Probably 90% of carnivorous beasts, need to die first for the Parasite to take over. Lord: ???
>Stygian Forest: Literally giant dinosaurs? Can digest Parasites as easily as normal food?
>Azure Forest: Abyssal sea-creatures but living on land?
>>280899993Fuck man, now I feel bad
>>280904831Neo Humans live in some sort of Balenciaga-Cyberpunk setting.
>>280904998>we will actually get android waifu that seek human cock
>>280900189Cute parasite.
Human need to start a breeding program, fast!
I wasn't even a match...for the strength of "The Lawless"...
>>280904991Yeah sure, ONE gave a legion of zombified parasites (including one who's been trapped and is currently being studied) to a civilization of advanced transhumanists who love to play with flesh and they won't turn the parasitical bio-hazard into a tool.
>>280904857Stygian is probably taking care of the parasite to keep the fight. King's curse neutered his parasite, but the way the dwarf bro died tells that parasites can keep thriving against the curse.
The strong will keep no selling the other enemies. Survival of the fittest and all.
Wondering if we will have the an analysis of how destructive these first two weeks have been on everything.
>>280905193Will they be able to rival Neo-girls and Demon Girls? Unlikely
>>280905132I would imagine Crimson forest looks like Caelid
>>280900433Finally but I guess it is true that Jachi is just late because he has to fight his way to the survivors.
The heat nature region will be immune to the parasite due to their high body temperatures or something. And a new life form or virus that can eat/kill the parasite soon. Most of the places will fall to the parasite though.
>>280900157Coincidence or is this a hyakkano reference?
Jachi is the NE protag in this story.
>>280905432he's gonna have a kiva moment eventually, only I dont think he's gonna die given how important he is as hallow's demon lord.
>>280900433That motherfucker looks cool, even after jobbing against Gimbak. He has CHARISMA.
>>280904998I think it is a model name.
>>280899685Trust the process Heidi bros, this is a setup so she can double cross the other neo humans later
>>280905545>even after jobbing against GimbakHe didn't job, he was about to win until that faggot Nyudo interfered.
>>280905773They did not fight.
>>280899628 (OP)Hopefully someone can deliver on higher quality versions of these pages. The cubari link is behind a discord server.
>>280905773Bro, let it go.
Gimbak would have obliterated Jachi by sneezing a little too hard in his direction.
It's okay, we'll have our revenge with Byakuyo.
>>280901632You guys won't be shit talking parasytes once parasyte godzilla shows up
>>280905847This. We are going to get a giant beast like pic related.
>>280905692Nobody can beat the hug. She definitely liked Ario's human scent while putting the note on him.
So, we now have proof Neo-Humans can lose to the cock. Can they be actual allies later?
>>280899628 (OP)>>280899633I need these pages in higher quality. Heidi is pure sex.
>>280905830>>280906034https://cubari.moe/read/imgchest/na7kvjj9k48/1/1/
>>280904169Maybe ONE is leading to a moment where the Neo Terrans reveal they knew all along or something, as part of some redemption arc
>>280904169Neo-terrans have never seen a robot. They probably also didn't find/see the other Neo-human corpses nearby, and she could have been collateral from another NE v NE fight.
>>280899628 (OP)>>280900433>>280906049Thanks guys. I will be dumping the pages in higher quality here for those who do not want to click the link.
>>280906248I wish we saw the fight with the machine. Despite her injuries, the fact Heidi was able to take it out with just a melee weapon is impressive
>>280906289I still don't really understand the deal with Neo-humans.
If Heidi can be mistaken for a normal human, then what's so special about them?
>>280906379Did you not read the chapters where they literally shred giants and Heidi solo'd a squad of lawless with a knife?
>>280906408Did they ever explain why they can do that?
>>280906384>>280906379They are genetically enhanced with super strength and speed. A Neo Human child fucked up a giant.
>>280906421Holy fucking speedreader, not even going to reply anymore. Reread the series slower.
>>280906318Wait, she sent the giants to her city for the luls?
How could she not care at things going wrong after other natural enemy killed her team and almost kills her?
>>280906523Neo humans are kinda fucked in the head if you haven't noticed.
>>280906523She couldn't have known that one of the giants was infected with parasites.
>>280906421Are you stupid? They're a civilization of genetically modified humans. They're stronger, faster, smarter and more beautiful. What's hard to understand in that?
>>280906523It's "acceptable" losses. Though it seems like Rogen is taking things a lot more seriously than the normal Neo-human residents. He's correctly identified that all these NE's are potential bombs more than anything. Hell, they will probably start doing their own Versus plans at this point.
>>280906571It's just weird that Heidi would be confused for a paleo-human by paleo-humans if she is apparently so different from them.
>>280906695It's not if aren't speed-reading.
>>280906523>>280906561>>280906562>>280906655I'm guessing all the no pupils neo human are a drone caste for the pupils neo human or something.
That's why Rogen cares about his sister but the citizens are just in a bothersome state.
>>280906736Who kicked you in the balls today, friend?
>>280899870kill yourself right now, faggot
>>280906695Attractive humans can easily blend into a crowd of neo-humans. Or could, if neo-humans were unable to detect them by smell.
>>280906795Any flower autists who can give an id check on those flowers? Are they relevant in any way?
>>280906729>"become one" getting mixed in his thoughts>parasyte tentacles coming outYou did good bro...
>>280906459Just noticed that this is the guy who killed the mage girl. Kinda wild how one parasite fucked them up more then giants did.
>>280906851Fortunately I'm not gay or a woman so I can't help you
>>280906729Vaxxed?
But seriously, interesting how he still became fully parasitized despite getting the curse. I also wonder if the curse will do something if he merges with the Super Wurm.
>>280906968I love this guy's design. I wonder if ONE did a rough draft for it that we'll get to see someday like he did for Kiva and Daikokuzan.
>>280907033Will post it after the dump is finished
>>280907118I wonder what the top panel is meant to be? Is that just a visual for him teleporting them or is he also creating a new area in the Lawless territory?
>>280907141End. I look forward to Jachi fighting all these robots. We know they can adapt to mana when Kiva and the sorcerers fought them.
>>280907147It's shifting the terrain to create a new territory methinks

>>280907205>loses to the lawless
>>280907235I can see that happening. The Lawless are such Mary Sues, I swear to god. They're literally just normal humans in a world of pussies. How does that even qualify them as a natural enemy of humanity? Not to mention all the other shit they got up to off-screen before the narrative panned over to them.
>>280899750Oh, so the shaking was her hiding the letter.
Gore probably would've been a decent guy if he wasn't born in a post-apocalyptic hell hole.
>>280906523She didn't send anything except for the message. It was all those prehistoric humans and their vile plans.
>>280907205>kills his own kindlol race traitor. You implying heโs gonna hang out with humans?
>>280899628 (OP)OP just use the rips from that one K-Manga MEGA next time so you don't have to rely on shit quality screenshots or have to wait for a Cubari link from some Discord server. https://mega.nz/folder/QWdCGIgC#_nr--LQC2U2QNcG5StQksw/folder/8aMEFB7A

>>280905408Rentaro will curbstomp god. No contest.
>>280901091>>280901313>>280901249The factions are explicitly not meant to be balanced as ONE said its up to the humans to somehow survive all the enemies even if some are just much stronger than the others
>>280907205>The GameHe's already lost. And so have you
>>280904169They only know someone human looking is gravely injured next to a robot she could just be a survivor or some giant mouse attack, and it seems clear she's just in her underwear when they find her
>>280908178all of the neo human women are sexo, that's like their whole deal
>>280906212>>280906248Heidi just keeps getting better and better.
>>280899750BITCHES AND WHORES
>>280901515The aliens would assrape the parasites, the parasites are just running amok because they have surprise and good matchups on their side. The parasites are easy to manage if you know how to catch them early, but only the people from the parasite world really know they're a danger. Everyone else generally is going to learn after they've been turned. The Neo-humans like to get up close and personal, and refuse to give a shit until they're forced to, which means spilling infected blood, and proceeding to mingle with the city. The giants are (almost) all retards, the Green Forest is the weakest forest, and it's just huge animals, not really capable of responding appropriately to an infection. Try pulling this infection shit against a literal robot, or the aliens scout bodies, or a curse that's trying to kill you instead of just pseudo medicine, or God, or a Demon Lord just purging the infected.
>>280901804Parasites also make you angry and violent
>>280904776They were always just humans but stronger, but seemingly way below a Hero at least singularly.
They'd need a massive technology edge to be a real threat and it would kind of take away from the robots for the Neos to have tech on their level.
I'm not even convinced we'll get tech that surpasses Cursed land. Like what would a tank powered by a thousand souls even do hypothetically considering the "rifle" with 60 is multi building.
>>280904723hes a machine from the government. theyre all robots
Female giants when? They must reproduce somehow to keep being a threat to the humans of their world.
>>280902122Kaiju possibly had a worm on it (or that was just vines) but then again it might have fire/heat inside it so maybe not.
>>280908234I think the biggest threat is a demon lord getting infected on purpose to become a super wurm and control them as an army.
>>280908281Don't they just kind of pop out of the ground?
Taking responsibility after making Heidi a mother!
>>280907986What ONE said is that it's up to humans to sway their enemies when the situation grows chaotic and unbalanced, and the super wurm parasite chapter shows this logic with Zaybi saying that they can't let one enemy become too much more powerful than the others or they'll be exterminated too.
It's not that the factions shouldn't be balanced, but that as the war progresses the situation will grow chaotic and unbalanced with several enemies being even types whose danger comes from their potential and that humans should try to balance the natural enemies with each other and not let one get the upper hand/achieve winning conditions.
>>280908308Those weren't parasites, they were just plants from Gaia's wrath, that's what his character sheet says.

>>280907354They're the natural enemy of moralfags, which is most of humanity
They're going to make it to endgame as the evil versions of the good humans who use all the tech from the other enemies themselves, leaderbro already is on his way to taking advantage of the parasyte I bet
>>280905033and the retard fashion is a way to stand out among your clones. The "bosses" are probably where the clones branch off from and theres a set amount
>>280907986>>280908402 (me)
Here are the comments and pages I referred to.
>This is just the first volume: where will the future take us?">ONE โ "From now on, the balance of power is going to get more complicated and become 'unbalanced' between them. The author himself isnโt trying to balance them, so it will be up to humanity to make the effort. I want readers to root for humanity."So it's not that natural enemies shouldn't pose equal threats, it's that the power balance will grow chaotic and unbalanced as the war progresses and the humans must work to balance the natural enemies.
>>280901141Most are probably only demon level even the shitter A class are on average just physically supposed to be superhuman (Mumen rider who's too shit to get high if he went to B class is an IRL Olympic athlete based on the bio ONE gave him).
I wouldn't be surprised if Demon Kings and those on their level range from Dragon to high Dragon
>>280899993>The cursedlands tech are all based off life force>giving up on life means he killed the juice keeping the parasite at bay
>>280901249The Mandalans despite being dumb are are funny enough probably at least somewhat correct about the Parasites. At the very least they'll never get infect being energy beings.
seems like the interest for this manga picked up from last time I saw the thread which were on chapter 10 or something
>>280908846Also, this situation in which the balance of power is thrown into chaos due to war between natural enemies could represent an opportunity for humanity to rise up and get out of their hopeless position of being only prey.
>>280901641>>280902891It would kind of be an amazing twist if the Game was another god entity and part of the world is just the game now.
Or maybe that's how they beat mad God put him in VR where the NPCs love him forever
>>280908803almost might explain their lack of the usual self preservation
>>280904295The 3 human factions will probably ally at some point but the NEOs and Lawless will be planning to betray and our humans are gonna have to play 4D chess.
Neos or Lawless coming out in top depends who ONE wants to be the enemy faction with the "We have the same strategy as the good guys but our lack of morals makes us stronger" probably the Lawless cause its a better contrast if they have the same base.
>>280907163They adapted to ice and thunder magic, that doesn't necessarily mean they have a response Jachi boosting himself with his magic and shove his foot up their ass. Still, danger level 6 was enough for the last bipedal robot to release all weapons limiters, and that ended with all the robots dead, and Kiva the sole survivor. They've gotta have some kind of plan for something a whole 4 levels higher than that.
>>280899660Someone make an edit of Heidi in the corner at a party.
If fodder neo humans are danger level 3 then fodder demons must probably be danger level 2.
Kiva is danger level 6 in Burst, so this means that the difference between Burst Kiva and Jachi with cape is probably as much as the difference between Burst Kiva and fodder demons.
>>280907147>>280907118>>280907168Yeah I think him transforming the place makes more sense, otherwise unless Zaybi somehow gets super charged there's no easy way for them to teleport back to the other group (would he even know location?) and suddenly we have 3 protagonist groups. Being real outside of Iglea, Zaybi took everyone with a brain with him.
>>280907183Why do the humans not simply LIVE on top of Daikoku?
His tiny arms can't reach his back and the other NE would be retarded to attack
>>280909284That's if Jachi with the suppression cape was even fighting seriously rather than playing around because even with the cape his power varies depending on whether he's playing around or not.
>>280908684This it's an obvious (and cool) setup.
There's also a reason we see Rinri and Gore being slightly superhuman to clue us in on other Lawless having some HnK type stuff
>>280900433I wonder if we will get to see a victory for the machine world this time, they've been wrecked by pretty much everything else by now.
i want to see Jachi struggle with this one at least.
>>280909429It's Jachi man, and he looks really bored even in his cape. Even if this robot is level 10 Jachi can still start fighting more seriously and then take off his cape if needed. He won't lose.
I need to explain Heroes and Demons to anons. Heroes ("Yuusha" = lit. "brave person", a job title in DragonQuest for the player character) is a very common JP character archetype most commonly seen in isekai. The classic setup is that the Hero is the only one able to defeat the Demon King ("Maou = lit. "evil king", from DragonQuest too but also a very popular JP archetype seen a lot, not just in isekai, and is used to describe a big bad / criminal mastermind etc even if theyโre human. For example All For One unironically calls himself "Maou" (because heโs a huge chuuni). The demons ("mazoku" = lit. "evil clan") look monstrous because thatโs the traditional isekai representation. The Sorceria world is an isekai world.
Why am I bringing this up? Because Yuushas have specific features that most anons donโt understand. They are almost always a combined sword and magic user. Their strength increases the more they get cornered and can release explosive power in the final moment of a desperate situation. Most importantly, they have extremely high charisma โ easily gains the trust and love of everyone around them, boosts morale and are beacons of innocent goodness. Ario is absolutely going affect the Neos with his charisma. ONE is a big otaku for this classic shit, itโll happen.
>>280909905>MaouThat's cool. So I guess you could almost liken it to a translation of "Supervillain"
>>280909541meh, it'd be pretty boring to get Jachi come and stomp on everything that is not Ginbak to be honest. it'd make the other world's enemies look like jobbers and not a threat at all in comparison.
>>280899628 (OP)>Be careful HeidiI thought they didn't give a shit about each other
Also Iโm still curious if the Demon Lords are numbered by strength. If thatโs the case there must be Lords who are much stronger than Jachi, although in terms of combat power heโs likely near the top if thereโs a lot of less-combat-oriented Demon Lords ranked over him. For example maybe thereโs an Ainz-like undead Lord with ridiculous mana and magic power but who is kind of a pushover in close quarters battle.
>>280910082I mean, the robots are still collecting data, expect them to soon make much more powerful robots similar to how parasites can get much stronger by gathering more mass and powerful beings.
I don't think they have any robots capable of taking on Jachi yet, but that could soon change with their overwhelming speed of evolution.
>>280899628 (OP)Wait, so Heidi was a spy?
As I always thought the parasites are the scariest ones
>>280910224Heidi is an upper-class neo-human. Lower-class neo-humans have to give their lives for their superiors.
>>280910265I don't believe they're numbered by strength, I think it's just a designation (like I doubt this Neo-Human city is the 9th most developed or something), plus it'd just be plain boring if that was the case. Demon lords have various niches they can fill. Diganazal being taken out early was a huge loss for demonkind in development/research
>>280900016Cute kami feet
I'd worship his feet
>>280900157Is this the birth of a kamigaki????
>>280909905>Their strength increases the more they get corneredThis reminds me of the fact that the wizard said that all heroes should have gotten stronger during their journeys as they faced challenges and so on.
I wonder if this means that the heroes have the potential to become even stronger as they face more challenges, as Alio seemed to have when he overcame his trauma with Nyudo.
>>280900407He's kinda sexy there not gonna lie
>>280910552Heroes are the strongest possible soldiers humankind has right now. Hallow was blocking shots from Madalans and was semi-comfortably taking on Kiva who was able to beat the shit out of one of the elite robots who was able to take out Heidi. Alio at his peak power was runninng through neo-humans and giants.
It's just that there's too little of them and the real upper rungs of enemies can just shit on them anyway like Demon Lords and presumably stuff like Gimbak's sons
>>280899729>>280899750They're going to turn Alio into a neo human.
>>280900371How do you even battle this?
So Heidi could have killed every human there, but she's with them for now to collect data
>>280905355MONKESEX
MONKESEX
YOOHOO
>>280910649Yes, I was just pointing out that they seem to have the ability to grow in power when they face and overcome challenges, perhaps even infinitely, of course this doesn't mean that they will ever catch up with the demon kings and the demon kings may have the ability to get stronger too or manage to get stronger by other means. I was just pointing out that heroes might have this ability to get stronger. Perhaps it's similar to how strong-willed people from the world of OPM can push their powers to higher levels through their will along with training and challenges and how Bofoi himself "improved" his brain.
>>280910703>So Heidi could have killed every human thereYeah, she destroyed an advanced robot, human groups don't stand a chance without a hero.
>>280910703A normal Neo human could probably slaughter everyone currently in the camp (since the combat forces are at the Church/lawless base and Hallow's gone). But yes she's spying for now because they are smart enough to realize that the other worlds are a threat that they know nothing about. Humanity is the least of their concerns unless they do another Versus on them.
>>280909905>look monstrous because thatโs the traditional isekai representation. The Sorceria world is an isekai world.They have literal Dragon Quest designs.
Fuck isekai.
>>280900371Yeah... Ginbak could tank this.

>>280908227>>280908228Stop liking Neo-Women.
>>280909905There's a tendency of blaming DQ for everything. But really, Yuusha is an extension of a hero archetype you already have in stories from the West. Like every fantasy story has a King Arthur. All that changes really is their name for it.
Maou is part of their folklore. since their folklore involves demons (Oni, Buddhism, and so on), they are often the central enemy of those heroes.
>>280907207This has already been translated.
>>280909332Daikoku is like Godzilla. A literal walking mass of radiation. And from the way his body steams it seems it has a very high body temp. Which begs the question of how and why people have survived being close to Daikoku(in a one Km radius).
>>280902013Yaotsu looks like he has a pretty carefree/childish personality.
I can see him being beaten by turning him into a video game addicted Hikkimori (which ends up backfiring as his godpowers end up enforcing the game rules upon the real world)
>>280912457But non-JP readers usually get the wrong impression by calling Yuusha "hero", because the closer word to the English meaning would be "eiyu", or legendary person, ie, the protagonist of a literary adventure.
Here is how I explain it: what would be the JP translation for "red shirt"? Theyโd probably just say "mob", ie, an unimportant, disposable nobody character. While that captures a certain key aspect of the red shirt, itโs NOT the same thing. A Western reader understands that red shirtsโ role in a narrative is to be killed. They are, in fact, unimportant nobodies, so "mob" works as a generality BUT the JP reader will miss the fact that the red shirtโs job is it to die. This is the Yuusha / Hero situation.
Similar to how Heidi has eyebrows and old giants like that and Ginbak also have eyebrows, this could mean that old giants have superior position and strength to young giants.
>>280909332>>280912771Daikokuzan may be going in and out of the earth, this could be how gaia wrath plants and world tree roots got stuck in it. Several Godzillas do this, going in and out of the earth itself.
>>280912959That makes sense. After all, with how slow he seems to move, how else would he have gotten the drop on a Madaran ship?
>>280912809>which ends up backfiring as his godpowers end up enforcing the game rules upon the real world)That would be really great
>>280902141>>280902141Ginbak is their king. of course he is strong you paleo dumbass. He is the only thing left carrying the titan.
>>280901632Jachi's aura insta-killing weaklings that get too close makes him immune to getting infected. Low tier demons are in trouble though.
I hope the Madaran subjugation team shows up and has a huge battle with the humans getting caught upโฆand then the Game World descends upon the battlefield and everyone is transported to a game world inside. Rules are strictly applied forcing all the participants to abide by them. Everyone freaks out trying to figure out how to get past this situation, then a Madaran goes "I see" and launches into a long Aizen cope about how itโs all an illusion designed to effect the minds of lesser organisms, declares that since he understands the principals he can easily break it apart, everyone listening with bated breath think "I-is it really possible??" Only to have the Madaran instantly transformed into a rabbit or something as a penalty for rule-breaking. I think that should be the Madaranโs ongoing theme, super arrogant coping which they never seem to learn from, and always have a confident-sounding cope ready for anything beyond their expectations.

I think versus has great crossover potential, the premise naturally gives way to a lot of entertaining moments with other IP. I want to generate interest in that

>>280904011>also seems intelligent enough to realize the threat of NEs beyond just "play things" like the mobs we see parasitedYeah, one likes paralllels, last chapter we had both heidy and that lawless girl doing the opposite of what they're actually doing, and now we have the neohuman being very concerned of the current state of affairs while the neohuman mobs who thought less of the NE got completely fodderized. Heidi will likely be the bridge between NH and the group once their cities start getting destroyed

>>280903508Technically, she never threatened or harmed any humans (other than the Lawless). She just said something like "if you don't use that cover story then I'll have to do something else". Glasses Boy just interpreted it as a threat.

Which studio would be best to make a TV series of this manga? Madhouse?
>>280913926Honestly, I could see WIT doing it.
>>280913740the only time this seems to come up is when kiva tells the army he borrowed to eat hollow to the torso but anyone who eats too much will be punished, so demons seem to like human flesh
>>280900433lol fuck off, enough with the filler jachi fights
>>280906523The Neo-Humans getting actively attacked by the giants didn't seem to care, why would she?
>>280906695>Neo-Humans look just like us except they are beautiful and wear weird clothes>here is a girl wearing rags and has been beaten within an inch of her life, her face cut and swollen>she's just like me fr frWhat's so hard to understand?
>>280900538>third wish isn't that badNote the big ass wall in the background. There's a reason why Yaotsu is a natural enemy to begin with and now they're stuck with him and are gonna need one hell of a good excuse to get away.
>>280900534>Frankly they should stop making Natural Enemies into friendliesName one "friendly" NE that isn't plotting either exploiting or exterminating humanity. Just one.
>>280914176More importantly the Neo world humans are just honestly good people, we saw that when they decided to sacrifice themselves.
>>280914317Re Yaotsu, I think the concept is that heโs going to have a childlike temper and easily mood swing into destruction, so everyone has to constantly kiss his ass and not do the slightest thing to make him mad, which will basically be impossible. Notice how buckbroken the survivor humans from that world seem.
>>280914438Yes, I notice you added โexploitingโ to the qualifiers so you know full well what the manga is going, making NE friendlies but covering it with a veil of fake edginess doesnโt cut it.
>>280902157>magical barrierI still wonder about that, I had always assumed that they didn't literally reverse engineer magic on the spot and it was more "the enemy is shooting lighting out of their hands, we weren't anticipating lightning attacks, better put together an anti-lightning barrier" without actually interacting with the "magic" part of it that creates said lightning. If they really did just straight up figure out magic then they are absolutely 100% the most dangerous NE in the long run.
>>280914487Fair, forgot about that fella. I concede.
>>280902366>ONE goes meta and makes the real reason the lawless are an actual threat as a natural enemy is because they benefit from human plot armour
I still think the big reveal is gonna be that the Lawless aren't an actual Natural Enemy just a lesson in what humans might become if they keep going down a victory at all costs path with the monsters.
BTW, what about the other Lawless leaders? Why is Rinri getting all the attention?
>>280902945A lot of mysticism likes to emphasise the idea of god (or some analogue) as a perfect being that is beyond sex or gender, which usually goes hand in hand with an androgynous appearance.
>>280913710>interpreted it as a threat.I'm mean it 100% was a threat, but it could have definitely been one in the sense of "I really don't want to have to do this please don't force me to". Personally I doubt Heidi's already fully on the redemption train, but she may have started to have a few misgivings here and there.
>>280906881It was a giant parasite, giants have been shown not to be much weaker than the tyrant bear so the giant parasite should be on a level close to a bear parasite, it also probably infected everyone who fought that giant and that probably allowed the parasites to take them over even after death.
And imagine if the giant parasite absorbed the bodies of the other dead giants, that would make a super wurm much worse than the one defeated by Yaotsu.
Just look at the pile of corpses of giants near him waiting to be absorbed.
>>280904254Lawless get human plot-armour, they're the meta natural enemy.
>>280914652Some must've already gotten BTFO, some must be thriving (lucky that they haven't faced a mid-tier threat yet)
>>280914720>giant parasite should be on a level close to a bear parasiteEspecially since these giants who went to the neo human city are on average twice the size of the giants who were made into puppets by the robot equipment.
>>280899895Parasites are fucking scary
>>280904857>I wonder how Nature will adapt to themSymbiosis
>>280914825The verdant forest was specified to be the weakest of all before.
Just because the parasite managed to take over the verdant forest doesn't mean it managed to take over the crimson forest.
>>280905394I hope that if Nature's Wrath overcomes the parasites they don't even destroy them or force them out. The parasite just becomes a part of the ecosystem, a dangerous thing in a place full of dangerous things.
Also everyone's friendly reminder that "nature" technically includes natural disasters.
>>280906655My guess is that the Neo-humans have some kind of brave new world situation going on, the commoners just live lives of pure hedonism and reckless thrill-seeking while the administrators and "higher ups" are a bit more rational about things.
>>280914713I think itโs clear Heidi is attached to the humans. She probably justifies it to herself as thinking of them as pets and useful resources for the 9th City.
>>280913602These are pure sovl bro, love the art
>>280899628 (OP)Does this manga have an end in sight? I'm not falling for another slop like One punch man
>>280912771> Which begs the question of how and why people have survived being close to DaikokuIt'd have to have a REALLY high body temperature for the heat to still be dangerous at that distance, "melting rock into lava" high. Also now that I think about it given that hot air rises and creates low pressure systems this implies that Daikokuzan would have a perpetual storm following him around, which would be pretty damn cool.
>>280914967It's barely getting started. Come back in 3 years minimum.
>>280914874The forests don't have any protection against parasites. It's going to be another wild growth biome that starts countering the parasites.
Reminder there's 4 named forests and a bunch of unnamed forests humanity can't even step into.
>>280915080>implyingThe symbiotic animals that eat parasites off large quadrupeds will probably go to town on the initial infection stages. The problem is that Verdant is too small scale with only slightly massive animals.
>>280914941I wonder if the Stygian Forest is straight-up Lovecraft shit. Shub-Niggurath, Yig, eldritch trees, etc. BTW if you want a great horror short story search YouTube for The Curse of Yig. Another great one is The Willows which is a big influence of Lovecraftโs and would be a great vibe for these Versus forests.
>>280915140The problem is that the parasite infects all other organic lifeforms so far (so long as their body temperatures aren't too high). Normal parasites are highly specialized in most scenarios, and the mechanisms against them are species dependent. The only thing Wild Growth has going for it is that unexplained nature of their "evolution", and what actively causes the sudden evolution and maddening of all the creatures. That could evolve something resistant to the parasite, but unlikely will happen in a forest in time (because most of the lifeforms will be infected and mutated by then).
Also, with the introduction of the Iron King, it opens up the possibility of other Forest Lords who may be willing to work with humanity.
>>280915239I could see some species just ignore the Parasite indefinitely as long as a Super Wurm doesn't kill the host, like how Alligators will have various shit fucking up their bodies for decades.
>>280914534Yeah I think it's more likely the shield just prevents the physical effects of that specific style of magic and not magic in itself
>>280915140>just eat the parasite broCongrats you now have a parasite inside your body
We already know that animals from more dangerous Forests have superior tolerance to the Parasite. All the beasts in the verdant forest got turned into parasites while the bear from the Crimson Forest had to die first in order for the parasite to take control. You can bet Stygian Forest has beasts with an immune system so strong the parasite just can't infect them to begin with.
>>280899660I know people are talking about how they didn't realize what she was, but I do like how wholesome it is that they went out of their way to save her with what little they have. Really highlights how different humanity is from the Natural Enemies.
>>280915818I'm talking about the humans not the Neo-Humans.
>>280900157Smug yet cute fuckboy.
>>280914967>Still read the fanfic that murata ruined instead of the wc
>>280900433Thanks OP. Jachi looks tired of the multiple world BS already.
I haven't seen any infected trees, does that mean the parasite can't infect plants?
Whats this game you guys are talking about?
Truly hope that Indignia will explore more about religion theme. Otherwise God will be not much different from big monster. What makes God a god is the belief system after all.
We need to see priest, church, bible, prophet, etc.
>>280916140I'm semi-hoping Rinri proposes becoming a priest/inquisitioner. But he seems to be going more for the manipulation angle.

It also means we don't really have any Neo-terran rep. Which makes sense since most are just held in torture prisons or released for fun after being in one.
>>280904169Her clothes were really torn apart, she was practically naked on the top right panel. They probably assumed she's a survivor from whatever it was that destroyed the robot.
My guess is that god is only powerful if people fear/believe him, so he will be useless against most NE

Heidi and this guy
>>280916454 was the one always at the head, but he's gone. So you have Heidi as the Neo expert and can pretty much manipulate everything as she pleases regarding them.
I wonder whatโs behind the Neo Humanโs love of tormenting paleos? They seem cool and rational 100% of the time and not given to spurts of emotional behavior โ so what do they actually get from torturing paleos? Is it like a childโs sadistic pleasure out of torturing small animals except made into a racial feature? Is it like the one thing they can just enjoy without having keep strict control of? Dark Eldar have a reason for it, but it doesnโt seem like thereโs any compelling reason for Neos.
>>280916526It's like X men. Neo human is the next step of evolution so they despise paleo human.
>>280916454I have just noticed heidi's eyes are extremely weird since her introduction, was her being a neohuman even a theory back then?
>>280916526Aren't they just racist?
>>280908532It's a show of power to let them know that they can't do anything even if they tried
>>280916526>I wonder whatโs behind the Neo Humanโs love of tormenting paleos? They seem cool and rational 100% of the time and not given to spurts of emotional behavior โ so what do they actually get from torturing paleos?Idk man, look through all of human story? We are all the same and smart but to this day we still super racist. They view us like a tribe of natives whose existence is a sore eye to their own plans
>>280914967Hell no. I could see it going for another 100 chapters and then some
>>280916753Could you even imagine enjoying torturing, say, black people? Maybe youโd want to get rid of them, but hurting them as a fun pastime? No sane person would enjoy that no matter how superior they feel, or how much theyโd wish all of them dead. If the Neos just want to exterminate paleos then fine, but they specifically want to keep them in torture dungeons and release them for sport, etc.
>>280913652>Kengan's Natural Enemy>not THE ACCURSED ABOMINATION OF APOPHIS, Luohan
>>280916839>Could you even imagine enjoying torturing, say, black people?Honey, have you ever read a history book in your life...? We literally did all this a hundred years ago or so. Russia is literally doing that right now to Ukrainians. Things gets worse the longer you go back. Americans used to torture the fuck out of Native indians tribes who also would torture and enslave them back.
>>280916912>>280916839>>280916632Also anon raises a good point about xmen, who knows what happened in the past, maybe the mutants smarter humans were being hunted and killed like xmen mutants and everything they doing now is simply retribution
>>280916526Technically, the vast majority of the Eldar were already doing what the D,ark Eldar were doing before the fall and the dark Eldar are survivors of these.
>>280913652Hmm, this is an interesting piece.
Shen Wulong getting slandered as the "Natural Enemy" of "Humanity".
Who is the artist? I would like to have a LEGENDarily "Icy" chat.
>>280916952An Eldian-Marleyan kind of history could be possible.
But if I recall correctly, weren't the Neo-Humans an active creation of the Paleo-Humans?
>>280916846he's one of the 2 connectors, though the one in the background with the blacked out face is Wulong
also forgot to mention the creator and artist is "the hell wolf" on baidu. I only linked his post but I don't think many people saw it
>>280899660I thought maybe she or the other neohumans had given her the scars so she could fit in instead of them being from an actual fight
>>280917071>BaiduI could've guessed. I'm pretty sure China is the biggest audience for Versus at the moment. Definitely moreso than the west, can't say for sure if it's more than the Japanese, but I feel like I've seen far more discussion and fan art from the Chinese than anyone else.
>>280917068I'd imagine it was more like several generations of designer babies by rich elites selected for traits they considered favourable, while the poorfags or luddites became less and less able to keep up until it became a full blown racial divide.
>>280916839>Could you even imagine enjoying torturing, say, black people?If you were raised in the US, you've almost certainly heard the "feeding the babies of slaves to alligators as a pastime" story at least once. They very much did enjoy torturing black people, much like virtually any group of people that conquered another did/does. The neo-humans are pretty realistic in that regard down to the Mengele shit they've been putting paleo-humans through.
>>280899775hey, it's the guy who killed the cute mage
>>280912868>But non-JP readers usually get the wrong impression by calling Yuusha "hero", because the closer word to the English meaning would be "eiyu", or legendary person, ie, the protagonist of a literary adventure.Is it really a wrong impression? You get the intended and correct meaning by calling it "hero", and that's why it's translated, correctly, as hero, as it's based on the legendary heroic archetype protagonist.
From what I see, dwelling on it triggers an irrational schizophrenic response, as in
>>280911021, they start to hate on it, ramble about DQ and it gives them asthma. So while it's a curiosity, the average person is better off not knowing, or not ready to see it, as for whatever reason simple knowledge about the red shirt(tm) trope causes an adverse reaction.
>>280916420>they're such good peeps
>>280917407>guyI always thought it was a girl.
>>280917312as an american, I've literally never heard that once, even in NYC where I live, sounds made up, but even if you could find a few documented cases of it happening,
it just can't have been a common or consistent practice, it makes way more sense just to sell them, most people aren't mengele, they don't derive pleasure from torture nor do they want to torture people,
and anyways most cases of torture/cruelty serve a utilitarian purpose (coercing a confession, keeping slaves in line, extortion for cash) it's just not in the nature of most people
The NEs are extraordinarily evil, they aren't human and in large lack humanity(compassion, empathy, love), it's in their nature to degrade and annihilate humanity and enjoy it, just like how a snake enjoys eating a frog
>>280917530People are cheering on the shit that happens in El Salvador and the Florida prison (assuming it is true). Get out of liberal spaces and you'll see people love bullying to that extreme a degree.
>>280899729What if Ario is getting proper medical treatment not because he's interesting but because all the experimental spells done to empower humans make them honorary Neo-Human in their eyes.
>>280909429This doesn't look much different from the robot Kiva and Heidi destroyed so I'll be surprised if Jachi struggles at all
>>280917644It's hard to imagine Jachi losing but I also don't feel like we're about to see another beatdown like he gave to that one Madaran. Maybe he'll end up on the backfoot and team up with somebody/something else to win?
>>280900407They're so fucked
>>280914449>Indignia is just a larger scale Peaksville
>>280917177>I've seen far more discussion and fan art from the Chinese than anyone else.Chinks love tournament type stories
>>280917644But the name of the robot is different, it could be a robot with a unique name only for itself.
It also seems that it hasn't released the limiters on the weapons yet despite judging Jachi with cape to be danger level 10 which implies that this robot may be above danger level 10 in base form.
>>280905773>Jachi hits him full force and doesn't even scratch him>a single punch sends Jachi flying through cities and into a mountain>Jachi has to use his limit break to attack and Ginbak wasn't worried at all except that his sons wouldn't surviveJachi got rinsed. It's retarded because it lowers Titans to being nobodies outside Ginbak but it was to show that the top of their pile was higher than the high tier in Demons.
I want Heidi to actually have a change of heart bros...
>>280905921I still see her broken arm as a set of giant tiddies.
>>280917530I wouldn't know about NYC, but it was definitely in my middle school history textbooks. There are a lot of similar cases of senseless torture elsewhere throughout history too, and medical experimentation in particular, while utilitarian, was and still is remarkably common.
Don't get me wrong, the NEs are ontologically evil and don't operate on (totally) human principles, but for very humanesque NEs like the neos and the lawless the "they're the logical extreme of being racist/classist/whatever as fuck" interpretation does hold some water imo. Most people aren't Mengele, but those who are tend to be remarkably like the neo-humans.
>>280918374I don't care about her anymore.
>Demons
Because of magic, they are an end game threat. Implied power of the demon emperor is exceptionally high
>Robots
High adaptability, we'll have to see if they can keep up with the higher tiers by just absorbing more data
>Parasites
Pretty much seen all we have to see about them. If they don't grow to kaiju size they just become forest fodder for one of the bigger, deadlier forests
>Titans
Fodder except for Ginbak. The rest of them get nuked from orbit by half of the other NEs
>Kaiju
Definitely endgame. Probably only Demons or maybe Yaotsu have a chance here
>Madarans
How far they go depends on how strong their war farms are but probably endgame
>Nature
Probably counters parasites but gets nuked from orbit like parasites
>Neo-Humans
Heidi seems to be foreshadowing something stronger that the Neos have to offer. Otherwise, fodder
>God
Endgame, probably either magic or game counter it
>Curse
Seems like a throwaway world that exists only for the tech angle. Expect to see "gun that fires 10000 souls" at some point
>Game
Endgame if not introduced soon. Possibly countered by Yaotsu or the robots via hacking
>The Lawless
Fodder, but probably also endgame just for the "we're just like them" parallel angle
>World Tree
I hope this goes somewhere cool but I can't really see it being endgame. Maybe the tree gets infected with the curse and starts spreading the curse globally or something
>>280914652It's because we have no reason yet to he shown them. Maybe Hollow will fight a Lawless group later.
>>280909284Actually, the weapons of the futuristic human soldiers including the powerful anti-armor shot couldn't do anything to the fodder robots and they didn't even get threat level 1, Zaybi's magic only got level 2, so the fodder demons are probably only level 1 at most.
>>280903508>>280914885Even in her letter, which was sent out before the latest developments, she's kind of advocating for the humans in her own neohuman-chauvinist way (her brother doesn't seem to be buying it). There was no need for her to go easy on Takuya, she could have easily killed him and went with the same cover story. I wouldn't go as far as to say she's exactly on humanity's side yet, but she's got more sympathy for them than she'd probably even admit to herself.
>>280918628The one thing Parasites have going for them is that it seems they can use the abilities of anything they take over. For the generic infections this is meaningless but if a Wurm eats a Demon Lord or other major threat it could potentially scale up to the threat of the other endgames.
>>280918374I want Heidi to be tabbed in the heart and die cursing humans
