can't believe she got fucking jobbed this bad... it's over...
She underestimated the people within the Japanese government that they could make countermeasures for exorcists if they ever go rouge not to mention she didn’t count on human greed so I think Ouhi is somewhat naive

I'm honestly getting a bit bored seeing the good guys being put on the back foot.


They're supposed to be powerful folks, but they repeatedly get caught unaware, loses because the enemy outplayed them (somehow) and then whoops, here's a new arc guys. Like yeah, i get there would be other powers at play, but there's just seem to be obstacle after obstacle (and again with a "good" character getting stolen/brainwashed/converted by the enemy).
The story just feels a little cyclic now.

Regardless I can’t wait to see how shit goes down also they got outplayed so easily due to a traitor among their ranks

Hatsuki is hot. Have we seen her before?

F for Ouhi. I assumed her mail kimono was passively defending her, but if it's active then she really is deadzo. Either way, RIP Ouhi's arm. I wonder what'll happen to her body.

There is a female exorcist(don’t remember her name but she was close to Ouhi) on her way to Ouhi’s location now so it’s likely her body will get collected and taken back to the temple

This guy must be a frickin' DEI hire.
"Let's save Japan by getting rid of everything that makes Japan, Japan!" :facepalm:
He’s crazy as he wants to play god and most likely make a Japan ruled by humans but I wonder why he wants to do this maybe something happened to him when he was a kid or something that led to this goal

I thought they wanted to control the spirit realm, not destroy it entirely... makes sense, sounds like a real government plan after all: Making war on a concept.
Making war on a concept would make more sense if he was a politician, but he's a bureaucrat, right? I think it has more to do with how aberrations are unable to be controlled. In chapter 162 he talks about how before Kanaka is defeated, the government will have to evacuate a city to prevent citizens from being caught up in a "calamity" as well as come up with an excuse for the evacuation. They know the barrier breaks in roughly three years, but only the crystal ball girl can predict the exact time when the barrier break occurs and her accuracy is based on how close in time it is to predicted event.

And that's just the biggest "nuisance" that readers know about. No doubt there are many other smaller occurrences that add up over time cause more work for them. Just look at all the craziness at Kazuya's school. It's easy to imagine that if it some of those events became public knowledge, then it would cause a lot of trouble for them. People who suffer need something to blame and the government is often the easiest target for that when the one truly at fault can not be punished, like a demon, a force majeure, or in some cases a child.

We've seen what she can do with her hair so you'd think even if she couldn't see or sense the spiritual energy of those guys she would have spread her hair spread out being used as "feelers". Especially since she talks about being cautious on the first page. So yeah, we knew it was coming, but to quote a certain creature of shadow and flame:

That was lame

Wow, okay so the flash-forward from the start of this arc finally happened. I'm conflicted, she's either coming back or she's dead, dead and I'm really not sure which option is better story wise. Either way at least the story can move forward now, this arc has dragged.

Yup and up next is Kazuya and Kiriha’s return and they learn what has happened

Also they will most likely focus on saving Sunao

Like the fake out last chapter just for her to immediately die next chapter lmao

Not really sure what the point of that was, but I'm not really complaining, because it means we're finally going to see MC again soon

That lame trap can be used against any exorcist so Kazuya needs to be careful
It is dangerous, but I think Kazuya stands a better chance since he can also use spirit energy martial arts to defend himself. His training in Yomi makes him probably one of the few who could counter this tactic.
