The end of the journey
while it is not so happy ending, it is not bad ending either
Alas, not seeing Oz and Alice incarnate in the end did leave a bad aftertaste in my mouth huhu, well at least they did complete the 100 years cycle (gilbert really waited 100 years OwO, I wonder how little time he have left)
The dream of the unending tea party at the beginning of the chapter is really sad, I almost thought that with the power of the Abyss they did something and Oz managed to host a tea party after that as they initially planned T_T, a dream that would never come true
Also as
@Nunally pointed below, it seems that Ada is living a commoner life, indicating the fall of the Vessalius, however I guess the panel is too small to make a judgement but given the fact that Zai and Oscar died without appointing anyone as the next head, and thate the dukedom system was revoked i think that's a possibility (and Gilbert is at the grave where Oz found the watch for the 1st time, does that means it was under the care of Baskervilles or simply abandoned?)
Must be lonely for Gilbert
Damn Barma never marry the love of his life huh
Also congratulation Sharon and Liam/Reim on their wedding
Some of my unanswered question is
1- remember when Leo remembers that he wrote Lacie but Elliot claimed that he's the writer, is that because of past Glen's memory or what?
2- Who are the Juror? and what are the endless story and their branches?
at 1st I thought that they are absolutely unnecessary to the plot, but then I realized that they are important as without them, the child of misfortune won't be explained and Lacie won't be cast into the Abyss in the first place, so Kudos to Jun Mochizuki sensei, he almost literally explained everything
3- the abyss was actually golden, but when exactly did it turned pitch black?
my best guess is when the core of the abyss obtained a body (Alyss body- fuck you blond glen) and turned into the Will of the abyss, which is why the Baskervilles wanted to obtain it and destroy it in order to restore the Abyss
4- Why did Alice and Oz need to die at the end?
Is it because Oz formed a contract with the will of the Abyss? os is it because that Alyss is disappearing, and Alice souls is connected to Alyss, and Oz's existence connects to Alice (as he's born from Alice - theoretically speaking) so when Alyss disappears, Alice will too and so is oz? ahh nvm
5- When Break asked Oz "Where are you?" for the second time, what did Oz replied? I triple checked the chapter and nope there's definitely no dialogue box there
anyway glad that i didn't read this when i found it yeaaaaars ago after finishing the anime, don't think that my 2011 self can handle this
Hope all the still living characters lead a happy life after that
One of the best manga I've ever read, the writing, the twists, the characters' development, the art and everything about it is a solid 10/10
been long since I enjoyed a manga like this
MERRY UNBIRTHDAY TO ALL!
