The triumphant return of NPC technique tailspin parry bloody tornado

Crazy how he named all the girls after Greek letters but doesn't realise the Elf named Mu is in on the group, he has canonically met some of the named numbers so he should realise it isn't a coincidence even if he thinks it's just roleplay

Delicious dramatic irony on the last page
he only named the 7 seven shadow, the rest are given name by the girls (most of them has named assistant, maybe Cid though them about Greek numbers)

I think Cid got involved only with first 7 letters (as in Seven Shadows of the shadow garden).

He didn’t know Nu back at Mitsugoshi either.
So following greek alphabet first 7 would be Alpha-Beta-…-Zeta-Eta
Everyone remembers Eta, right? Eta the sleepy inventor, right?
Doesn't matter if he didn't know Nu back at Mitsugoshi, he didn't know her name at that point, at this point he's met Nu(as we just mentioned), Lambda, Chi, and Omega, I think he's met Iota as well, so hearing Mu should be alarm bells for him.

Is Kanade Jack the Ripper?

There's really no need to include her as a character in all this other than for the twist reveal right?
I think it's already established that Jack is Cid

Kanade is the joke character for this arc (since Hyoro and Jaga won't appear here), also mob example for him

Doesn't matter if he only named the original 7, he has personally met multiple named numbers so he should be well aware of the Greek letters theme going on even if he didn't personally give them the names

I need to go back an re-read a bunch of chapters.

I have no idea whats going on or who anyone is anymore.
The first girl we got introduced to is his sister, Claire Kagenou. She has a part of the soul of Aurora sealed in her arm; Aurora is the name of the violet-haired woman who later became the demon lord Diabolos through some means (against her will). MC calls Aurora Violet.

Then there are the 7 original girls.
  1. The Shadow Garden leader, Alpha,
  2. the author, Beta,
  3. the clumsy leader of the chocolate/bank/etc corp, Gamma,
  4. the no brain all brawn wolf(?)girl, Delta,
  5. the musician, Epsilon,
  6. the spy-master, Zeta
  7. the sleepy researcher who wants to do human experiments, Eta.
These have rescued other girls. The amount of girls was too much (>600) for Greek letters, so most have a number and only the strong or special ones have a Greek letter as a name.

It has been revealed that Zeta disagrees with Alpha about the course of Shadow Garden; she instead wants to do something to make our MC immortal or smth. She has formed her own faction to push this goal. Members of this faction include some of her subordinates that are also in Shadow Garden, like Mu (Greek letter), but also some that are not in Shadow Garden, like Nina. Nina is the gyaru and is Claire's best friend and secret bodyguard.

Then there are noble girls. At some point, Cid confessed to princess Alexia Midgar, who accepted a fake relationship and calls him Pooch. She has twin tails.
Her older sister is princess Iris Midgar, the student council president (or maybe she gruadated by now) who leads the Crimson Order. She thinks Shadow Garden and Diabolos Cult are different names for the same thing, and hence considers both enemies.

Bordering the Midgar kingdom is the Oriana Kingdom. Their princess Rose Oriana (with drill-hair) joined Shadow Garden as nr 666 (after the Shadow piano scene) before becoming the queen (and cutting her drill-hair). This is the kingdom Alpha is busy developing.

More recently, we learned of the noble Christina Hope. She is the one who so creepily smiles at the Jack the Ripper kills, and who forced Cid to sleep in her room. She has no history before this arc, as far as I know; just another classmate. (EDIT: We first met her when MC took the appearance of her cousin Suzuki Hope, who died as his collar exploded. She was one of the people who watched as he transformed into Shadow and defeated Fenrir, the wolf-like bad guy.)
EDIT: During this Fenrir+Hope arc, we did meet another noble girl who was making classmates kill each other for fun and was taking their mana so she would stay alive. Her name is Eliza Dakuaikan, and she is the one we wanted to be judged which led to the current arc.

I think this covers most important characters.

calm down, you make too much credit for Cid. he might be just not thinking abt it that much.

there's a lot of misunderstanding and misconception from him before.

I don't remember who the girl is in the infirmary. Not Mu, but the other one. I genuinely can't remember her at all. Either way, hell yeah Cid pinball. Missed the mob-fu.
