they cant see the forest for the trees with world hater, but i also feel like "its tradition" was the excuse Chun (and all men) kept hearing when they tried to join the witches association and now he just reusing it to be extra petty

 

[rakkunburns]

It's quite obvious that the magikeepers are holding grudges.

 

[fight2live]

oh no, they're gonna poach Ichi using his connection

 

[skywardgem]

damn I forgot about the skull head dude, should be fun learning more about him. I imagine the others will worry about this being enough to poach Ichi but I can't imagine him truly entertaining leaving after the stuff two chapters ago

 

[DiscountJoJo]

YEEEEEEEEEEAHHHH LOREEEE GIMME LORE!!! GIMME BACKSTORY!!! WOOOOOO!

 

[FlorianGran]

Aw, Ichi had his Grandpa Gohan reunion

 

[DMan_chine]

Well, that was NOT in my bingo card.

"Our only duty is to prevent crimes done via magic."

"...how about global extinction?"

 

[Ikerot]

I suppose the magikeepers can just blame the witches for the world hater going about annihilating cities. It's not their job, after all.

Does set up a potential of the majiks working with magikeepers against the witches 🤔

At most Ichi will go with them temporarily (this will be mainly for lore and world building expansion purposes), but there is no way that Ichi —who has seen first hand what the world hater majik is capable of— would permanently join an organisation that has zero intention of stopping him.

Wasn't expecting a custody battle arc in a shonen manga, who will Ichi go with? His foster father or his foster big sister? Find out next week!

"Our only duty is to prevent crimes done via magic."

"...how about global extinction?"

"Is it done via magic?" (I'd say yes, but if they mean 'It's done via Majik' then...yea.)

As infuriating as it is to see someone reply "No." to working together to stop a world ending threat, I kind of see where he's coming from. A regulatory agency getting chummy with those they're supposed to police would inevitably raise eyebrows and lower public trust. Also, I'm gonna go out on a limb and assume that his men are trained to combat other humans, not majik. I can also understand wanting Ichi to join them. While he is a witch, he's also a unique specimen. Having him close would both help keep him in check and allow them to tap the previously unavailable power of majik to help counter other witches.

That first justification might not work, but when you're also trying to poach one of the people who are working towards y'know, preventing the apocalypse, kinda throws any real justification out the window.
