Kill6BillionDemons II: The Successor's coming will be followed by 108 burning threads

[Grek]

Nyave is 10000% Gog Agog, right?

-Slams fist on table, just like Solomon David does (Gog Agog tends to mimic people.)
-Makes passionate speech telling Allison to do what Gog Agog said to do. (Just as they expressed doubts!)
-Lumpy wet tears, just like Gog Agog possessed people tend to have. (Well, Cio too...)
-Weird mark on neck that apparently wasn't there before. (Panel 6 today!)
-Subtle flakes of Gog Agog green fire around her head as she does this. (Biggest hint.)

Not sure about the marks on the neck, but you're pretty spot on everywhere else. Bye Nyave, you were great.

It's plausible that Nyave is emoting hard enough to make her soul flame, which just so happens to be the same color as Gog-Agog's, visible. Sure is unlikely though.

[lord_khaine]

Im not entirely sold on that theory.
Yes there is the bit about her posture being identical to SD's. Y
And yes for some weird reason her soul is flaming green.
But it can easily just be how Abbadon draws tears.
The weird neck mark meanwhile could be a tear dripping off her chin.

[Smurfton]

It is incredibly difficult to make a ring out of atum without some intense training. We've never seen her forehead on fire (basic version of projecting atum), and here we see her creating the beginnings of a ring (advanced version). At the very least, Nyave has been lying to Allison.

New Offering

Enter Tripitaka and the Three Disciples(or something)

Also, what a verdant shade of green Nyave is wearing...

[lord_khaine]

Alright yeah.
Thats a bit to many hints towards something being off with Nyave.

[gbs5009]

That would definitely flip Gog-Agog from being, in my mind, comically inept at manipulating people to scarily effective.

Gog-Agog is one of the Rulers of the Seven-Part World, a survivor and victor of a multiversal war, and considered a peer by the most destructive persons around. If they present themselves as incompetent in anything, and especially in the clownish degree that Gog-Agog does, it's almost certainly a deception.

Peer might not quite be the right word. Yes, she's powerful enough that the remaining demi-urges negotiated a truce with her rather than kill her and divide the multiverse *6* ways, but they don't seem to hold her in particular regard. Simply being powerful doesn't mean that she's not an idiot, scatterbrained, or simply too different physiologically to properly understand human emotion / motivations.

I'd agree though, it's starting to look like she's whimsical and bizarre, but *not* any of the things I just listed. Now that she has Allison charging off to fight Solomon, the question is whether she's truly doing it out of animosity for his swole-iness, or if she has some deeper motive.

New Offering

PATH TO GLORY

[Tom Tearcamel]

Is that an orange clad sorceress, and her whole entourage giving our protagonist the Stink-Eye?

Also, Kangarookin? There’s a bunch of them and they look awesome.

[Honest Tiefling]

Possibly, or it could be a case of Resting...Uh...Lady Dog Face. Or she's just the type to give everyone the ol' stink-eye.

[Eldan]

New Offering. Which honestly feels a bit fillerish.

[sihnfahl]

New Offering. Which honestly feels a bit fillerish.

Well, it does seem to be a trope. 'Have to cull the competitors to those who actually can fight...'
Punching machines in DragonBall...
The tests at Genkai's in Yu Yu Hakusho...
The evaluation and paperwork in One Punch Man...
So...

[Honest Tiefling]

It'll be a little weird if we just skipped straight to the main boss. I think the montage does its job in establishing events without dragging things out.

And we do learn that plenty of Solomon's minions are taking notes on the competitors. So there is at least some info present.

And not sure that it means anything, but the scene is painted in shades of blue, perhaps to represent Jadis/Sloth/The Prophecy.

[Aquillion]

The real point of this page (and the last one) is to show how Cio's absence is affecting Allison.

Jeez. Do you want her to be punching a Demiurge on every single page?

[Honest Tiefling]

Jeez. Do you want her to be punching a Demiurge on every single page?

Well...The art is really good, so why not?

[lord_khaine]

Its more likely they are grading her performance.
Since its a qualifier, then they need to keep track of how well she does across a line of tests, clearly designed to leave several types of combatants able to pass.

[Aquillion]

New page.

Like I said, that last page was about Allison's reactions.

[lord_khaine]

And.. she is back to being an idiot...

[Onyavar]

My guess: Another angel, probably Juggernaut himself, will slip into WhiteChain's shell, while his crew holds him captive. More boring, if the Thorns just remind WhiteChain of their task.

That way, Allison is surrounded with no reliable confidents: Cio was left behind, WhiteChain is a thorn plant, Nyave a worm plant, and Princess is... huh. Maybe Princess gets their chance to shine now? Because they are such a nice person?

Yeah, somehow I think that Allison is now on her own again.

[Aquillion]

My guess: Another angel, probably Juggernaut himself, will slip into WhiteChain's shell, while his crew holds him captive.

Doubt they can do that. If they could, why would they have sent White Chain back in the first place?

[-D-]

Because most of Angels are murderous and would kill Allison several times before finishing their task?

[lord_khaine]

No thats just thorns.
Regular Angels are just incarnations of LAW.
But i really do doubt one angel can use anothers shell.

Is more interesting now to see that the cryptic Angel is back.

[Eldan]

New Offering. Any bets on if she's still in there? I actually think she is and just had a change of heart after the talking to.

[Hamsandlich]

IIRC, according to the depths of Abbadon's lore tumblr, each suit of armor is custom made for each angel. They have maze-like channels on the inside that are keyed to the individual angel across incarnations(like fingerprints). OTOH, Metatron is less like a regular angel now and more like a sapient infectious idea/cognito-hazard that can overwrite the personalities of those exposed to it (this is why White Chain sometimes says "Metatron Lives" when she's stressed out), so encountering 6 Juggernaut might have triggered a relapse.

[lord_khaine]

Thats mad. Even for this place.
Metatron is a Prime Angel. Nothing more. Nothing less.
At least according to what we have evidence for.

[Hamsandlich]

Even among the Primes, Metatron is unique: https://killsixbilliondemons.tumblr....in-the-current

[lord_khaine]

And that does not make the previous idea any more mad.
