So Omega, who can see every atom, couldn't deduce that Annie was carrying a " scraper " and moving around methodically scanning everything?

These shadow effects on them makes them to look like they're the villains who explained their evil shit on the protagonist.

If we didn't already know that becoming a god hasn't actually negatively affected Kat and she'll never have to deal with the consequences of how irresponsible she's been you'd think that would be exactly what this is setting up.

I rate it 2/10, mostly for how rushed it feels. I don't really see any in-universe stupidity and in general it is functional, it just needed a bit more time to breathe, to fit in with the pacing of the rest of the comic. One, maybe two more chapters before this one that showed perhaps what is being shown on this page.

How did you arrive at your rating?

There's a prophecy about Kat killing Zimmy (with Omega) and a whole chapter about Kat going "too far", it's obviously setting up something

It isn't just rushed, it's missing the key elements that make the protagonists-execute-a-daring-plan interesting.

There was minimal foreshadowing or even awareness that Annie was trying to execute the plan (TM). We only knew Annie was executing a plan moments before the payoff so there's no tension of even excitement, and the only thing at stake was a character introduced last chapter

There's no sense of competency or plausibility or satisfaction to the reveal to it because all of the specifics are completely opaque to the audience. Where is Omega's computer? Is it like a campus? A datacenter? Why does it take loads of resources to keep running all the time? If Omega is functionally dead does it even need to be running constantly? What security precautions has Omega taken? What security precautions has the Court got in place? Did Kat hack the device? Is this soul stuff? Did she notice Annie carrying around Kat's solve-everything device? How can the distortion be mapped, isn't it super chaotic and comprised of numerous interwoven memories? Which is why is feels like Kat ex Machina rather than a cunning plan.

And this happened at the same time we were HOPING we'd get setup and tension for the witch arc. He literally killed two birds with one stone. Emphasis on the "killed".
I have like, weaponized disappointment for this chapter. And it started so strong.

I think using the witches as a segue for the plan is fine, it just needs to be rearranged with some extra groundwork.

Write it so that it seems like Annie isn't aware that she's walked into the lion's den. Rather than sitting down for tea Jenny shows up and we get a full blown witch fight. Annie gets beaten soundly. Then after some explanatory dialogue an uneasy truce forms. Oh no, Omega has shown up to ruin everything! But wait, this was all according to plan! Annie had the ace up her sleeve the entire time. And then Jones shows up and claps.

All of this shit that just happened, happened 2-4 chapters too fast. Not that it hasn't already been dragging on endlessly and tediously, but we went right from NOTHING to SOMETHING INTERESTING? immediately back to NO, NOTHING before we could blink

Don't forget the super paranoid court using Wireless connections that anyone can hack by just passing by with a sniffer.

Or the super computer their most important and most secret resource. Being left out in the open instead of a secure bunker with every protection, ward, and automatic security they could conceive of. Omega setup should be able to run independently for centuries, they cannot afford a leak like even yearly supply drops. Finding Omega should not be possible in 10 chapters even 20 would be bordering on to fast.

it happened this chapter, in the aether side of the world, while we only saw reality. That's why nothing was important, and some dialogs where just scribbles in a distance. we were basically Omega the whole time

That's because it IS Kat ex machina.
That's what Kat is now. She got turned into nothing more than a plot device in the norn chapter.
