Haha! Fuck yes! Stand up against your father! [remembers what that entails] Wait, no, don't stand up against your father! [remembers what THAT entails] Um, waffle on standing up against your father and keep the process in limbo for long enough that other people have the ability to interfere! Yes!

Wow, okay. I called the experiments, but not the scope. Also, Narnia isn't actually a complete jackass? Come on, stop playing with me like that, let me dislike someone unreservedly already.
Well, I kind of saw the political stages being foreshadowed... but that was way back around chapter 295?
Credit to Nishi for laying down all the groundwork for all the possibilities; this started as a Iruma kid entering a high school of demons as a human... but now Iruma is being shoved headfirst into shit storm from at least 13 assholes for being who he is, not because he craves anything in depravity.
It was like the high school prom and the attending kids were full of enthusiasm and hope. Then the realities of (irresponsible) adulthood came crashing down on them after the prom and the happy dopiness is all over. Still, I expect Iruma to lead the demons into a new era, where craven depravity gives way to hope (or tempered optimism).

The 13 crowns hold great sway and maintain their own independence... lose that crown and their influence falls dramatically as we saw with the Naberius clan. As for the division amongst the demons of origin, it is like all the political shit shows we see and read about these days. Once one gets into the seat of power, removal from power is impossible if the established process is disregarded and/or made a complete mockery of.
I don't think we as readers even know where the ex-interim demon lord went... but it seems she went to the border patrol after Merize's incident. Now what happened to her? Why haven't we seen her?

I guess we'll enventually find out how and why Delkiras disappeared - did someone or another party seal him away in secret? Did the "deities" have a hand in that? What or who could have possibly put Delkiras away into what is most likely the ring of glutton known as Alikured?

Don't tell me Amy Kiriwo is a demon who was born in Sanzu and adopted into the Kiriwo clan.
I personally think it's much simpler.

Kiriwo was a demon who has always been weak in terms of power in a reseacrh facility all about improving the demon race. The method they intend to use to do this is through human consumption, and the human they intend to use is the one Kiriwo is obssessed with.
He absolutely volunteered for the experiment, just on the merit of eating Iruma alone.

This is pretty interesting. Usually eugenics and racial purity are lumped together in the same group but here they are in opposition.

This reveal honestly has me more intrigued in how Sullivan got to the human world. Coz even if by the end of this arc, Iruma stays and is well protected from Sanzu. Folks are gonna start asking how he got there and past demon border patrol. So it's a possiblity that even if they don't get Iruma, they might get info on how to go to the human world to get material themselves.

damn, that little fat fuck chubby mew looking tube baby atori shot made me feel weirdly paternal for a second. curse you, little bug. (i'm also a little alarmed that he's got little nubbly horns as a baby, but only seemingly empty horn roots as an adult iirc according to the heartbreaker.... that's not a fun implication in hindsight.)

Yep, had a feeling Narnia was at a crossroads last chapter and he's chosen essentially the worst possible path since he made enemies of the Iruma faction (Iruma, of course, will forgive him, but I'm certain others won't.) and now the Baal faction and they won't be as nice about such a betrayal.


baal's ugly scheming ass is right there :pacman:

The deity girl is fair game too, imo. Not because she's evil but because she's not.

An older theory of mine just became canon.

About Knightwalker creating the Six Fingers, and maybe the Opera as some kind of weapon of war, have been proven true. In Wett's case, it makes me think he may have been created from Purson Soi's older brother, Purson Purton, just like Kurogiri was created from the corpse of Oboro Shirakumo from MHA. That is, Knightwalker created Wett from the corpse of Purson Soi's brother, that is, Purson Purton.

Initially the older version had Baal the theory instead of Knightwalker, but with the appearance of the mad scientist Knightwalker, we replaced Baal with Knightwalker. In other words in that older theory with Baal in that chapter with him(Baal) in that laboratory it was linked that he (Baal) would have created the 6 fingers in that laboratory.

Maybe Naberius Narnia will teach Iruma how to say no to his parents like Narnia said no to his father. And I liked the parallel between Iruma and Narnia, in the sense that when Narnia was little he couldn't tell his father or not, but now he's matured. I hope we see that from Iruma in the near future.

Also Narnia being traumatized in childhood because of he father, and disgusted by he father's experiments. And in the image/page 10 it seems to me that Knightwalker's eye pupils are those of a demon returned to his origins. And maybe Naberius Narnia may want to eliminate magical beasts so that his father doesn't have any more guinea pigs, my mistake I meant to say volunteers for his experiments.

In my opinion Narnia being a impure Lawful/impure morally impure character (often called a morally gray character, antihero or tragic protagonist) is the one who does not fit into the classic patterns of "good-natured" or "absolutely evil". This type of character has good intentions, but uses questionable methods.

And the only clue we have is that Kushinashi and Kiriwo's childhood friend have the same hair accessory. And that Kiriwo's childhood friend received that hair accessory from her deceased grandmother. And if for example Knightwalker might have killed the demon king Derkila in that area on the border between the human world and the demon world, and if Knightwalker had also killed Kushinashi, then Knightwalker would deserve the title of the demon king killer, like Stain who has the title of the demon king killer/demon king.
