IIRC the body didnt age at all, it was just like it was still alive. Its magic power made so it wouldnt deteriorate. Its also showing it much earlier than the novel.
@Avrune it can be w/e the author calls it, theres no rule to be followed, only the most common use. Ive seen mangas where the author called werewolves 'kobolds' for example.
His shadows never turn into him or become a threat. At most he cant use them due to some limitations during that one event.
Read the dude's message again, he said "I can only assume from the warning that he means the people that he is bringing back will eventually turn on him ".
I've gotta say the speech in this version flows a lot better than the other one, but I'm a little sad it misses out on the little details like Jinah's text conversation.
I hope it's not one of those tropes where his personality gets eroded slowly to darkness or whatever and then there's this redemption arc to bring him back. Would much rather see some other kind of development.
