Yeah, for the arc that is the turning point of the manga, it's kind off unfortunately lacking in tension.
I'm waiting TLanon to look into the current chapter, but given that the more exciting developments were the changes to the status quo I'm hoping we will get something on top of Sato's obvious take over of YM, and Tokio inevitable conflict with Azuma( which I hope doesn't end up underwhelming as well).

Not him but it's a pretty simple chapter. Tokio catches up the latefags on Zora being chill, Elly tries to ditch Batista who's emitting a Call on the verge of death but he stops her and points to the Signia, Sandek used too much power and is fucked and is impressed Tokio isn't also fucked after his own display, they meet Zora who insists she's just a dying old choujin now and to go quickly find Batista, Tokio tells her he still believes her which she's notes to herself those are words she hasn't heard in a long time, then everyone starts dying due the karmic reversal or whatever the fuck they translated it as and Sandek tells Tokio (dying edition) to quickly get to Batista.

Isn't this just an "end of part 1" kind of arc?, I wouldn't expect many important characters to die here, Zora and Batista are more than enough
Anonymous No.282942798 [Report]
So it seems like Batsista actually dies offscreen, but Elly most likely didn't (possibly couldn't) take the beast mark. Or hasn't yet anyway.

I was half-expecting Elly to meet the death requirements too, since she also kinda stole a power from one of Zora's kids and had to Revive after, but going by how Smoky looked to be shouldering it, she has thief's immunity.
Also slightly expected Azuma wouldn't be affected since I thought that his metal power originated from Queem but was just stimulated by Zora's blood, since Azuma is kind of a complicated case. Either way, neither of my curve balls predictions hit their mark.

Granted there's always dozens of ways thing can go wrong in entirely different directions.

Anon pls.
She is possibly the most inoffensive and well written member of the "power thief" archetype i've seen in the entire medium. Her biggest win thus far was literally nagging at Batista until he realised how hard he fucked up. She routinely gets rekt, relegated to fighting lower tier threats and mostly provides utility in fights because she's nowhere nearly as strong as the actual powerhouses even with stolen powers.
She is literally just a grumpy and fierce country bumpkin with a moral core that's too rigid for her own good.

I REALLY hope Ely doesn't just turn into the calamity immediately after, that'd be so incredibly lame.
I'd want the entire arc to progress her into her final form

She was clearly unable to Raise further when zombies devoured her. Remember, Tokio's insane Raise limit is an exception, not a norm, most choujins can barely do it once or twice.

The fact Sato knows how to achieve controlled Chaos is a huge red flag. If he can teach something so advanced to Tokio, he is obviously capable of doing it himself, and likely even teaching it to his own Swords. He may secretly have the most powerful military force in Yamato right now, and they are loyal to him and not the organization.

Elly has the best ability to become a choujin X on her own, after all. All she has to do is steal abilities slowly and get used to them, or steal a bunch at once and either adapt or die to achieve it.

Really, Tokio has the lowest potential of the 4 main characters. Palma has Bill and Zora blood, Azuma has Queem specs and Zora blood, Elly can be anything she wants to be, and Tokio just has Zora blood (which tends to make people into jobbers).

Tokio has by far the biggest raw potential and ability out of 4 main characters. He's also the only one who can control Chaos which seems to be the real gateway into top tiers in this setting.

Nue literally did that, though. Zora went on about how stealing the beast mark wouldn't work, and then it worked. Batista only fucked up by trying to do something even a Choujin X can't do and failed, and then Nue was stuck with crippled power and the dumbass inside him was also restraining him.

Besides, we don't know much about what it takes to become a choujin X. Zora for some reason has inheritable powers so that makes her successor easy, but all we were told about her is that she one day awoke to becoming a Choujin X after being a normal choujin while fighting Queem.

Nue didn't do jack shit, it was all Batista who is beyond extraordinary. Nue immediately crashed and burned the second he was allowed to roam free. The Mark doesn't accept anyone, Batista needed an improved Xember to become a Beast first.
Ely is mundane. That's her entire shtick. Her mother's fate shows what happens when a depriver gets greedy.

I'm more curious why there's a mark to begin with. Does every Choujin X have one, or did Zora literally craft her Choujin X abilities into a mark specifically so it can be succeeded? Is it some unique quirk that just happened to come around for just Zora? And even if the mark has her abilities, why are her 'kids' tied to the mark and not her herself, since it's literally her blood still?

How much lore do we have about foreign nations and foreign Choujin X anyway? Because I can recall almost nothing on that. I think I recall something about the seas being fucked but that also might have been another series I was reading.

How strong was the dude anyway? He got name dropped alongside Choujin X but wasn't a Choujin X himself apparently. I assume he was just insanely strong yet weaker than a normal Choujin X, just his ability type gave him really good affinity against Queem specifically.

Not to backseat translate, but I'm pretty sure he's referring to how Tokio completely controlled Chaos mode and still hasn't hit his cap, so he's tossing Tokio a compliment. Particularly since Sandek similarly used all his power and is completely drained.

The series has had a lot of it, really. Batista's drug is technically exactly that and it even worked on an already-choujin. I was also half-expecting the modified drug to sever the causality shit but I suppose all the drug did was make it more potent, shelf-stable and easily transportable. Granted it also maybe kind of killed more than it turned and stronger versions literally blew people up.

Azuma's technically an experiment, too. Queem beta clone with choujin X specs and that's even before adding Zora blood to the mix.
