NO ACTUAL FUCKING WAY??? CROSS DEADASS NAMED HIMSELF THE EQUIVALENT OF HUGH MANN?? ADAM NORMAL???
I fucking knew his name was way too perfect for his job.
I'm hoping that the ''weird uncle'' they talked about in the previous chapters was him
Is Marian supposed to sound like Mary On?
I think it's supposed to be Maria or Miriam from Bible? I'm not sure. I thought it was like ''Mary on a Cross'' like, that one song. I don't know if they crucified her tho I'm not big on Bible lore.
She wasn't. "Mary on a cross" or "Mariam Cross" are literally talking about blesfamy
I KNEW IT I FUCKING KNEW THAT DAMN DOOR OPENED TO THE HUMAN REALM.
The shapes of the mountains matched the background from Henry's flashback about his dead wife so is Amelie half human??? I don't remember her mom having monster elements either and it would explain why Henry is aware of humans' existence and is softer to them than the rest of the nether.
Can you imagine the next arc being Amelie and Iruma traveling to the human realm only to see Delkira gambling his soul away at the casinos or something
I wish the soulmate trio was here too, it would've been a good way to give hints to them about MC's true nature.
and her "forbidden texts"
I genuinely forgot about those bruhh
It's really frustrating how MC is still surprised that the wedding is happening like?? When has MoLister ever listened to you?? or let you decide anything??? Obviously the wedding is happening what else did you expect?
Woah cool name bro
And I kinda agree, it seems MC is dead set on not wanting to burden ML but they have come this far, he even wanted ML to take him away (ch 32) but now he is doing this.
I hope things go well cause hell no
This was kinda peak but the girl bothered me so much.
''My father is a pervert killer and he's after you''
''Oh I better go to his house all alone without alerting anyone then, I'm sure it's a misunderstanding''
Like?? even if MC was lying why would you go to a grown ass man's house all alone?? why not meet him somewhere public at least?
Like father like son, I wish the Leon Kennedy looking ass got burned to death at the end.
Ts lowk pmo, how much of a loser do you have to be to invent your own angst? I thought you were older, why can't you act your age then dumbass?
He's a grown ass man btw, he keeps talking about how he's older and more mature but he can't even sit him down and communicate properly
You don't need to tell your whole life story, you can just say that you got out of a bad relationship and you're reluctant to start a new one, no need to drag ts out for funsies.
Unc acting like he has the time to play around, the retirement home is right around the corner grandpa you need to pull your shit together.
Would've been absolutely perfect if that rape scene didn't happen.
I literally do not give a shit about MC's trauma, ML is being discriminated against because of how he was born and MC keeps stringing him along for sex even though he condemned other people for doing the same.
He fucking damn knows about what the other dude is talking about, MC is too much of a bitch to man up and go out of his comfort zone to face his problems.
All those years and all those wrinkles but still less common sense than a horny 20 year old. Your ass damn well knows that normal fuck buddies don't go that far dumbass, you're just embarrassing yourself.
Hypocritical ass bitch, you're way too damn old to be acting like that, get yourself together. Grown ass man playing with a stud's feelings like he can get a better lover later, you don't have as much time as you think unc.
''I'm older and wiser, I can't date a young guy!'' that young guy has been smarter and more mature than you for the entire manga, when was the last time you made a smart decision?
when you asked to see his furry cock after seeing how much he loves you?
when you decided to take advantage of his feelings to use him as a fuckbuddy?
when you acted stupid in front of your friend to not look like an asshole?
You're way too old to be acting like that unc.
yes get his ass user Sex Lord of Gay Debauchery
Story Recap so far:
Noahs were all happily living in their world until it got purged by the giant Cross they showed in Allen's Flashback.
They then came into this world to make it theirs. (According to Road, this world was created for this purpose)
Their leader, the Millennium Earl disappeared one day and Katarina D. Campbell (unclear if she knew the Earl personally) found two identical babies where he stood. She decided to raise these babies as siblings, naming them Nea and Mana.
Mana and Nea loved each other but Mana was being haunted by his Earl side, telling him to kill Nea and become the new Earl.
Nea manages to wound Mana and kill 12 out of 13 Noahs, letting Road survive for unknown reasons. (It is hinted that they're in cahoots because Road said that Nea fought for Mana's sake)
Nea, knowing that his doom is near, decides to seek for a host because in case he dies without one, his memories can get damaged when he reincarnates.
He stumbles on Allen (1.0) who was a dying soldier. (Unclear why he specifically was chosen since there would be thousands of people dying in that war)
Allen agrees to be his host in exchange for Nea granting his wish. (the wish is currently unknown)
After this Mana manages to find Nea and kills him, shortly going insane himself because even looking at the mirror reminded him of Nea. (presumably, the Earl taking over his mind forced him to die so he can regenerate with a different face and forget about Nea. Mana didn't fight because he was grieving)
While this is going on, the previous Lavi who had white hair was a big fan of Nea and deserted his clan to follow him. He learns that Nea already had a host so he tracks Allen down and they start traveling together.
Apocryphos (probably spelled that wrong) is something like a guardian for Innocence, hunting down Noahs and scouting new vessels for innocence.
He comes across Allen and Lavi (1.0) and decides to kill them before Nea can revive. He uses the Helix of life to consume Allen, breaking him down to his atoms.
The Helix of Life is a principle that every being on this earth has come from and will go to the Helix becase that's where they get their life energy from. The innocence is a parasite that feeds off of the Helix and that's why they work like a duo.
From Apo's explanation, the more life experience, trauma and events someone has, the bigger their Helix is which makes them more suitable targets for the innocence.
While Allen was getting consumed, he not only got an innocence but Lavi also jumped in to save him by giving up his Helix instead.
Allen was thrown out after 8 years in the helix and Apo decided that Allen would make a great vessel for the heart because he's back to his child age and Apo can create a lifetime full of trauma to nurture his Helix.
He wipes Allen's memories, gives him to the circus (motivation unclear since he didn't seem to be aware that reincarnated Mana was Also in that circus) and decides to intentionally fuck his life up and create more trauma for him so his Helix can grow more.
After this, MC (currently named Red) starts working in the same circus with reincarnated Mana (who doesn't remember what happened to Nea but he vaguely knows that he has a brother and he misses him)
His reason for joining was because every time the circus performs, the whole town comes to watch the shows and since Mana doesn't remember his brother, he's hoping that his brother can recognize him instead.
Allen was a regular abused child but after meeting Mana and his dog named Allen (unclear if Mana came up with that name himself or he vaguely remembered it because it was Nea's host's name and kept it in his subconscious) He started warming up to them.
Cosimov was a bastard who worked in the circus but was jealous of Mana's success. Apo intentionally mind controls him to mess with Mana so Allen can have more trauma in his life. Eventually Cosimov kills Allen (Mana's dog)
From what we see of Mana, he's currently being haunted by the Earl suit who can sense his grief (unclear if Mana remembers the Noah clan or the Earl)
Red sees that Allen (dog) died and cries for him, somewhat soothing Mana's pain.
That day, Mana takes Red out to have fun and they start bonding, not knowing that Apo was currently mind controlling the entire circus to demonize Red
When Red and Mana return to the circus, the ringmaster blames Red for killing Allen even though Cosimov dug him up.
Mana understands that Red didn't do it but Red was so enraged, he activated his innocence to attack them. Mana tries to stop him but Allen hurts him with innocence too which makes his inner noah and hatred for innocence awaken.
Mana awakens as the Millenium Earl and kills the entire circus but Cross Marian manages to stop him at the end. Cross's duty was to kill Red before he became Nea but he decides to spare him because both of his innocence refused to kill Red. (unclear if Apo stopped them himself)
Cross tells him to stay away from Mana so Red decides to bury Allen again and tries to kill himself by staying in the cold. The last panel is Apo standing over him menacingly. (Since Allen doesn't remember his promise to stay away from Mana, we can theorize that Apo erased his memory of Cross so they can stick together again for more trauma)
The next day, Mana is completely GONE, his memory is reduced to atoms and he thinks that Red is his dog Allen who can somehow talk and walk on two legs. From this moment on, Red's name is changed to Allen.
They travel together for a while, Mana teaching Allen all sorts of things, like the writing (lullaby) they created with Mana, his symbols that mean ''I am here'' and his juggling skills so they can earn money.
One morning Mana dies in his sleep and from now on, the story is very unclear.
----------Unclear------------
After Mana dies, The Earl visits Allen and asks if he want to revive Mana but there's no way he can be at both places at the same time.
From what we see in Kanda's perspective, Mana's grave was empty so we don't know who got revived and cursed Allen. Could be the original owner of the body before Mana took over, or could be a small part of Mana's soul who stayed in the body
--------------------------------
After Allen gets cursed and kills Mana, Cross decides to take him as his student and the regular story of the anime starts.
FORGOT TO WRITE THE LAST PART but after Allen kills Mana, Lavi 1.0 soul went inside Allen for some reason. It's unclear is Lavi's soul was there from the beginning or he just appeared there randomly.
Currently, Allen's Nea side is waking up so him, Johnny and Link are visiting the Campbell mansion to learn about their origins. Allen ingested poison to remember his past life and learned that his master Cross is actually using a fake name because he was related to the Campbells.
