My New Girlfriend Is Not Human? - Vol. 3 Ch. 170 - Where balance tips

[MasterWiky]

Yes, yes, shady people doing shady stuff...
But have you seen the mother on page 6? Daaaaaayum

 

[DarkeLourd]

Are the actual gods getting involved or are they just codenames? Because I thought Amaterasu was a chick?

Yes, but I feel this is more of a codename situation since Jade mentioned he's aged.

A few chapters back (165) Neco not-Arc's entire reason for suggesting they get Taya out of the city to give birth was that "Deities are selfish pricks and they'd want a piece. [...] We need to find a place away from their watchful eyes." I think it's extremely likely these are actual deities.

I hope Taya gets her claws on this new old man.

No one is safe from catching those hands

 

[Graywing]

Time for an Old man to be retired. Thanks for the chapter!!!

 

[Trainman1351]

Saltpeter and black powder are nothin compared to guncotton and extruded smokeless

 

[SpiffSpeaks]

Now the story is getting deeper than I thought 🤔 🧐

 

[Malachite_Dragon]

From what I recall of the mythology Amatarasu is the last person who gets to complain about bringin' babbies (Especially monster-shaped ones) into the world.

 

[thycondrius]

You motherfuckers better get away from our girl or you will get a world of hurt

 

[PhycoKrusk]

I feel it is worth noting that upon being reminded that, as the balancer, Jade knows exactly what the birth of this child will do to the balance, her reply is, "What I want is irrelevant."

I read that as the old folks will not get their way, because for whatever reason, Taya's child needs to be born.

 

[JoeKerr]

Oooh, it's lore time!

 

[TinsleyNocturnal]

You go anywhere near them and I will personally enter the manga and shove your head so far up your ass you will come out of your own mouth

 

[VerticalVectors]

More chosen than Harry Potter is this baby huh?

 

[Luke_chase]

Grandpa wants to raise it as his own!

 

[letmereadmangas]

where the hell went my fluffy romance????

 

[Xystus]

Nah the new guy is gonna be the top elite bodyguard the story needs. Watch him solo 3

 

[dishonored_one420]

are the jujutsu sorcerers butting in?

Yep. I got the same feeling from the jujutsu kaisen higher ups. Crazy how it works.

 

[Treswimming]

I have a bad feeling either the birth of the baby or fighting off those fuckers is going to get lich dad killed.

Don’t you dare speak this into existence

 

[Qwormuli]

I'm leaning on the side of those being codenames. Setting the issue of the literal Amaterasu-ō-mi-kami being jaded, aging fart of a man, Yama and Yomi would make a wild triplet out of those three: One of those is rooted in Buddhism (not a real stretch with the intermixing) with a more apparently(?) setting appropriate depiction in Enma, while another one is just the place of the local standard template underworld. Moreover, even if you localized and anthropomorphized them enough to make a trio, I'm not sure if they'd make a happy pecking order to what's seen here.

The more likely culprit is that or some other old fart liking how Yama and Yomi rings together and naming two masked goons after them. Thematically named mooks is just the classic, after all.

Lastly: If there were an alliance with (as much as can be) literal heavens and hells to spawnkill that spiderling, I don't this would be treated as merely dangerous, instead of straight up fucking apocalyptical.
