Ok so now is the moment this story can get REALLY interesting or just go horribly predictive and boring.
Will his humanity play any sort of role and his fundamental difference from a demon be confronted? or will it be the same old "we're all the same deep down, it's all good because love and friendship and shit" easy cop out?
I personally think it'll be a "We'll discuss this later" situation which will turn into a "We'll discuss it when you're ready to discuss it", because Azz is enamored with Iruma way too much to confront him, meaning that either Iruma will have to proactively tell him about himself, or Azz will try to poke for more information about humans (probably from Balam, though he may turn to other people first, cause it would make for better comedic angle, for ex. their club senpai) before doing something dumb/misunderstood "for" Iruma, which he'll appreciate anyway, and they finally discuss it out then. But that's all when the story will need a breather.
(Reminder, all above is speculation)
Fuck, so Baal stole the credit and got a BIG backer. This is gonna be interesting. I'm actually fine whether Kirio actually reveal Iruma's secret or not. 'Cuz I don't think it mattered for him at this point.
What's interesting, is we don't know the
Princess™ personality, although graphically she's very reminiscent to Chima from the flashbacks to the 2nd Akudol arc. It's possible we'll explore the other consequences of the "lovestruck at first sight" phenomena. The only "Gods" we've know so far is Toto, and the Harpny (only from the Gaap family legend) and they both seem like weirdos to me (The hime/ouji kind of weirdos).
Actually we almost held the chapters after they were done because we were worried people might think that, but we figured why let a sniper ruin our fun? This was just when they all got done.
Hey, Your translations & redraws stand out by their quality, for the people that just wanna read the story forward there's always crude MTL, but for people who wanna
read and enjoy manga the better Scanlation shines just that much better.
Baal stole the show and now Iruma got the really stupid idea of going after the perverted canibal. Damn Iruma, netx time shot first and ask questions later.
Particularly horrifying seeing kirio joyfully talking about eating iruma to his face immediately after perpetrating a reputation overhaul for his senior that is going to lead to some absolutely horrific events.
Man i love iruma but i hated him in this chapter like wtf are doing going to someone that might be a threat to you without any back up if he was killed in this chapter I would be well that's his fault for being stupid(rant over) but I feel Alice might simp for iruma even harder knowing his human and has been able to do what he has done so far
I'd like to remind everyone that Iruma hasn't seen Kirio since the Fireworks, and back then He saw him as a kindred soul, who was kinda messed up by the Demon World.
He didn't know Kirio was in Walter Park, didn't know He was behind the Coco(Trauma-guy) going nuts, he wasn't told what happened in the lab by Azz (Here's a difference in view, Azz knows that Kiryo's Hostile, while Iruma may thing he's only fugitive). I guess Iruma's less bothered by the whole "I eat you"-part (remember the School's hymn, he probably expected that at some point, especially after the discussion with Kalego's onii-chan) but more, that the one guy he looks up and relates to now knows he's a "deceiver", and the other guy he looks up to and is very close with will find out.
Tbh, even if they claim he's human, who's going to believe it?
I'm sure everyone remembers his wicked phase?
It's not about Outing him to the world, cause that would be hard countered by Sullivan influence, and the trust he shares with other 3 greats means they'd probably back him up on this.
It's about undermining Iruma's trust between him and his
friendsAllies in the Netherworld, as well as making him more enemies. While some of them rely on Families or Bodyguards,
All Demons are essentially alone,
Higher Demons are respected and listened to not out of Love, Loyalty, or Law but due to Fear of them and their power
If Iruma is rumored to be human, that means that even the lowest Demons will have a cause to fear him not, and consequently can be convinced to oppose/undermine him later down the line. It's especially important now, since cronyism is incredibly powerful in a society of lone wolfes, it completely breaks the game and flips over the table on the system we've heard Baal is trying to restore.
the most upset for me is iruma don't get the princess as his new waifu
While politically beneficial, it would be a liability for him in personal life, imagine Ameri summoning him to the office, to spent time together, but instead it's one of the big Gods of the Netherworld.
Remember how suspicious Azz and Clarin were as to what trouble he is in, before both them and the rest of his class and the Student council just acknowledged them as at least liaisons. Imagine that but instead it's the most powerful people in the netherworld wondering what the hell's going on.
99% sure Clara already knows.
A great common subversion to readers is to make the token “idiot” look smart by knowing things the “smart” characters overlooked.
99% sure Clara doesn't care.
I don't think she'd have bothered thinking about it, other than in the form of "What Iruma likes/is interested in" and when she's officialy knows, she'll just pepper him with million stupid/playful questions. I can imagine her outlook being similiar to Bachiko But instead of "A Human's the best to learn my Archery, anyway." it's "A Human's the best to be my friend, anyway."
Exactly.
