/tpn/ - The Promised Neverland chapter 9

So, is this manga any good?

>>148066835
It's entertaining enough, although I don't think it's WSJ material.

this manga gets worse with each chapter, that new woman just looks too silly to take seriously, and the young kids are being regarded as retards.
Even 5 year olds know that in a game of tag you don't get distracted by such a stupid thing like leaves with images on them

Not really.

Not with her face.

They are kids man.

Not at all. It seems like you don't know any kids, but it's easy to make them lose their attention or focus on anything else.

Black people look retarded in this manga.

>>148067225
I hope they escape, it really seemed like this story was going nowhere quickly. Either way I think I'm done with it unless I hear something happened.

>Color page to celebrate the amazing success
Please live dammit

>>148067398
It's getting kind of grating how everyone is beautiful apart from the black person, who's drawn as a 7-foot-tall billowing clown monster.

>>148066737
This manga went full retarded. I give it one or two more chapters before dropping it.

>>148067355
Not that anon, but this is so getting cancelled. This isn't something that's meant for the average WSJ reader. Unless it is dumbed down (which defeats the whole point of this series), it's going to get cancelled.

>>148067444
This is nipland we're talking about, most black characters featured in manga and anime are typical stereotypes and have names like big mama.

It ranked 6 this week and 4 last week, so I'd say it's doing good enough. Not getting cancelled for now.

>>148067449
Yup

>>148067472
This, people are fucking blind. I hate it when Niggas get offended over nothing.

>>148067480

>>148067472
I'm usually not one to jump to this opinion but she does feel like a racist caricature. At least she's human rather than a demon (which would have even more unfortunate implications).

>>148067529
Which is effectively undone, by showing other black characters normally and making her the antagonist of the arc.

>>148067375
>Not really.
yes really

>Not with her face.

>Not at all. It seems like you don't know any kids

>i talk with kids every day, they are not retards no matter how many adults want to think so, they are simply inexperienced but not idiots or have add automatically
Your pretty degenerate if you expect a childs attention span to be as big as an adults. This has nothing to do with ADD. Anything "foreign" will capture their attention and the leaves having marks was just that. This makes perfect sense.

>>148067658
>>148067624
Sister Krone suspects Gilda for suspecting Emma. Anyone wanna bet this is gonna bite Krone in the ass? she's going to accuse Gilda of knowing about the farm and revealing all their is to know about the farm to her causing Gilda to get shipped of to be harvested and Mama then having Krone reported and executed for her exposing information to a child who knew nothing all along.

>>148067658

>megane is a mama

I dropped this at chapter 2 and it looks like it got even worse

>>148067561
We don't know that. They could easily be brown.

I get that she's supposed to be menacing, but the combination of that, plus her being the only one given racial features, looking ugly as fuck, and the maid outfit makes her feel like a caricature. I know I could easily explain why she looks the way she does without referring to racism, and while it doesn't ruin my enjoyment of the manga, it doesn't make her character feel any less unfortunate.

>>148067758
It went full retarded.

>>148067787
>We don't know that. They could easily be brown.
Now this is autism on a new level. It's like you WANT to be offended.

Do any of them have fucking afros or what? They just have shaded skin so they could be Indian or something else.

>>148067647
>Nice that you explained your opinion so well.

>She looks like shes about to fuck 'em up in almost every panel. What do you want more?
for her to look like a human, not a clown

>our pretty degenerate if you expect a childs attention span to be as big as an adults
it is, you seem to be the one who needs to be more around kids.

> Anything "foreign" will capture their attention and the leaves having marks was just that
i won't deny that, that is part of the whole inexperience thing, but that's just it, it might catch their attention, but they won't follow it like a retard. Normal people/kids don't go "ooh, a piece of candy, ooh, a piece of candy, ooh, a piece of candy"

my guess is your "experience" with kids is a little brother, in that case, your brother is just a retard most likely. If you hang around kids due to a job like i do, then you probably just look at them with prejudice without giving them the respect they deserve.

>>148067858
>Every Nigga has an afro
Who is the racist here?

>>148067866
>nice that you explained your disagreement so well
How can I explain anything when you didn't say how it was getting worse?

>for her to look like a human, not a clown
She looks more demonish than a human or clown. Why could that be, retard?

>it is, you seem to be the one who needs to be more around kids.
It literally isn't. What the hell, man?

i won't deny that, that is part of the whole inexperience thing, but that's just it, it might catch their attention, but they won't follow it like a retard. Normal people/kids don't go "ooh, a piece of candy, ooh, a piece of candy, ooh, a piece of candy"
Of course they would. When you see a hundred dollar on the ground as a kid, you would 100% take it and if there was more, you'd check that out.

>my guess is your "experience" with kids is a little brother, in that case, your brother is just a retard most likely. If you hang around kids due to a job like i do, then you probably just look at them with prejudice without giving them the respect they deserve.
Nope, you're ignoring why kids are kids and not adults in the first place.

Nips don't give a fuck about your opinions on race, and it's going to stay that way. Just read the manga. It's probably for the best that this place dies in 3 weeks.

Can someone please elaborate on what they don't like about it? All I see is shitposting.

>>148067944
The point being that there are no indicators or confirmation that (any of) the darker kids specifically black, so contrasting them with Krone is a moot point.

I get why she's depicted this way, but it doesn't mean there aren't any unfortunate implications.

>kill her

damn nigga u so cold

>>148068050
>The point being that there are no indicators or confirmation that (any of) the darker kids specifically black, so contrasting them with Krone is a moot point.

>>148068069

I don't know how you got that but OK.

>>148068126
You indirectly said that them being black doesn't mean that they are really black. Just wow.

>>148068121
This.

>>148066737
So just to be clear there is no discussion about this chapter in this thread just shitposting about /pol/, how this will get cancelled and "le this is a shit mango xD" right?

>>148068199
There are other races with dark skin, you know. All I said was that we don't know what races they are, so comparing the darker kids to Krone is an invalid argument.

>>148068387
Pretty much. I'm excited for the start of the arc next week.

>>148068387
We briefly talked about Megane, but there's not really much to talk about this chapter.

>>148068448
>All I said was that we don't know what races they are, so comparing the darker kids to Krone is an invalid argument.
At the same time you can't say for sure that they aren't "black" so complaining about Krone being a filthy nigga and the author being racist in that aspect is plain wrong. This really is tumblr sjw shit that begs for something to be offended by.

Norman, my nigger.

>People being this mad about some people using the word nigger
>On 4chan

Seriously? People have given zero fucks about saying nigger all over this site long before /pol/. It was so commonly used that people for a time used double nigger when they wanted it to actually be insulting. Are you going to tell people to stop using faggot next?

>>148068491

>>148066835
The premise isn't THAT original but the execution is near flawless. Lots of intrigue and strategy, with a pacing revealing new information little by little.

>>148068387
Dead thread

>>148068512
That's because before nobody cared about anything, 4chan was apolitical as hell
Now you have /pol/ that is basically constantly filled with shitty political agenda.
It's not the same connotation at all, even the old /pol/ or /news/, /pol/ now isn't different from reddit

>>148067014
She knows that Emma and Norman saw something that night, and has noticed them acting strange.

>>148068620
That's a lie. /pol/ is a lot more cancerous than leddit.

>>148068484
>At the same time you can't say for sure that they aren't "black"
That is true.
>Krone being a filthy nigga and the author being racist
I fully understand why she is depicted this way. I just said that she felt like a racist caricature due to the combined nature of her characteristics, which although probably unintentional, doesn't make her depiction less unfortunate.

>>148068387

I liked the fact that Krone rused Emma to breath heavily saying things that would upset her and find her

>>148067225

So, how will the Manga continue once they inevitably escape? Will they try to find "The Promised Neverland", a place where humans are safe from demons on the other side?

>>148066968
And of course, they're keeping the murder thoughts secret from Emma. I wonder how she'll react when she finds out. Would she go through with it if it means saving her siblings? Will she try and disuade them because she thinks she could be an ally?

>>148068802
Mama will be revealed to raising the kids and she's actually a good guy and also they're actually on a gigantic flying ship and Earth is desolate and filled with poisonous gas

>>148067656

Good thing nips don't kowtow to nigs or care about your virtue signaling

I've seen plenty of caricature'd villains throughout various manga and anime, I don't see how it's suddenly racist when it's done on a black character.

>>148068802
When discussing the possibility of a world controlled by demons, Emma talks about making a place safe for humans in chapter 2 or 3 so i'm guessing their aim is to either find or create "The promised neverland"

>>148068960
>a gigantic flying ship
A gigantic flying ship that bothers simulating the sunrise and sunset? That simulates the 4 seasons? Seems like too much effort.

they're literally at it. They don't need to 'escape'

Mama already figured it out, the 'promised neverland' is literally just the orphanage.

She probably escaped in the past and realized that the only safe fucking place there is, is at the orphanage.

That's the twist. The twist is that they escape, realize that there's literally nowhere for them to survive cause they might die from the monsters, and then return after realizing that the orphanage is the safest place to be. Next arc is Mama telling them they're stupid for even trying and the three protags being all like "Y-You're wrong! there has to be a way!!!"

Norman's my favorite so far, I really hope he doesn't die.

>>148068995

>>148067014
Glasses girl is a candidate to become a Mama. Emma probably was at some point too, but she's too smart to not harvest.

>>148067529
Didnt she have a demon shadow in her first appearance?

>>148069189
Because she's an agent of the demons. She's clearly human, we saw a flashback of her as a kid doing tests.

So with the escape happening next chapter, how do you guys think the "Tifari" ceremonial feast is gonna play into this? The demons apparently worship some sort of deity who needs to have a high quality meal but the Gracefield farm is the only who can produce high quality goods in time (the trio) Are the demons gonna get fucked over when their deity goes on a rampage from an unsatisfactory meal?

There's something I'm surprised they haven't commented on yet.
They're clearly getting their food and other resources from somewhere, which means every so often they must have someone come to deliver goods.

>>148069271
Characters are only as smart as the author. No one worth half a damn becomes a mangaka.

>>148069231
Maybe to compensate for the lack of quality, they'll have to make up for it by increasing the quantity of meat being given as an offering. So the kids escaping would lead to most of the kids in another orphanage getting eaten.

>>148069271
>>148069297
It's clear that the demons deliver the food when they come to pick up new goods.

Pic related.

Yeah, I guess that makes sense, it's the only time they know that the gates ever open.

>>148069271
Come to think of it, assuming they have books about food in the library, if they pay close attention to the food they have, they could probably make a rough guess of where in the world they could be.

>>148069339
>Except they showed her as a demon in disguise when she was introduced and I'm assuming that Mama is at the very least part-demon.
That wasn't the implication fucktard. We saw nigga mama as child already.

Didn't they show Mama is a normal human previously. She even had her own number tattoed on her neck.

>>148067787
I feel i really have to agree with you here... Isabella is shown doing this kind of face as well, but uses normal, kind expressions too as a counterpoint. Krone is only here to leer and grimace. I think if we saw her acting normally more, or if the races of those two characters were swapped, it would be better... it's just kind of weird to use the first spotlight on a black character in this manga in this way.

>>148069100
Odds are none of the main trio will die anytime soon. It's open season for everyone else.

>>148069587
Few weeks back people were discussing his death flags all over so I'm just a bit worried.
I also think it's weird to kill off one of the main trio like that, though.

>>148066737
This author has already heard of a script tip called show, don't tell?

>>148069676
Yes. However, retards on /a/ seem to be misunderstanding what it actually means.

>>148067225
>>148067297
Does the fact that the American WSJ is still running this series mean anything? If it's popular in the West, would Shueisha care?

>>148069696
>retards on /a/ seem to be misunderstanding what it actually means
Like you.

>>148069676
>the author

you mean just all of Japan?

>literally any fantasy anime ever
>any anime that requires world-building because it's different from the modern world
>any anime where it's like a competition or a game

>one character spends half the chapter/half the episode explaining how the world works
>one character spends half our time explaining different races, different rules, different laws
>one character spends half our time having inner monologue explaining why they're doing what they're doing

The author for TPN seems to do a good enough job with showing and not telling, though. 'Show, don't tell' is just for exposition, and I don't seem to recall the author doing something like that for every chapter that's unwarranted.

>>148069774
if you want an example of someone not following 'show, don't tell', then watch Kiznaiver.

>>148069773
You sure showed me. As a reminder, your ADD getting triggered isn't the author ignoring Show, don't Tell.

>>148069774
The only time there's exposition, it's because the characters are trying to figure things out and exposit what they know in order to theorize about what they don't.

>>148069774
It's a mystery manga in which the mystery and suspense are explained through text. Even Shitenki in Kyojin know how to be more spontaneous.

>>148069826
>The only time there's exposition, it's because the characters are trying to figure things out and exposit what they know in order to theorize about what they don't.
In other words: all the time.

>>148069774
every time the characters experience something they spend the very next panel telling the reader how they're feeling.

then again this is a staple to almost every manga out there, but that doesn't forgive the fact that it's a boring way to tell a narrative.

Manga can also convey narrative through its art too, y'know. But it seems that most mangaka do not understand this.

>>148069676

Well, showing the demons out of nowhere in chapter 1 and later in chapter 6/7 was a show, don't tell.

>>148067050
MITSUKETA

One thing I agree: there is a lot of talk and little drama. The main characters (the boys, especially) are more plot devices than people.

>/tpn/

Seriously? Suicide nigger.

>>148069093
They become food either way, I don't see how the orphanage could be more "safe". Especially the 3 protagonists who are supposedly gonna die very soon. They don't have anything to loose.

>>148066737
I'm waiting for it to be revealed that the farm is located in Japan and there's an anti-demon resistance group thats led by the casual self insert Japanese character who weilds a katana.

>>148069948
>Manga can also convey narrative through its art too, y'know.
especially if it is a manga about suspense/mistery/horror. the author will not scare me or worry me or surprise me if he doesn't shut up.

im guessing that norman will be a traitor in the future

>>148070396
He either fake dies now and comes back as a antagonist, or he disagrees with whatever Emma is trying to do at some point and becomes a antagonist

It's the same destination either way

>>148070457
I disagree, if there's going to be a traitor it's either going to be Ray or Megane. Norman seems like the kind of guy who "will do anything for the person they love", be it killing someone or sacrificing themselves.

Ray on the other hand was already described by Krone as "quick to give things up", and Megane is probably suspicious of the trio and will tell on them at some point.

Definitely more bishounen, a lot less forehead

>>148069948
Is this the author's first manga? I agree that his narrative needs a bit more work, but should this not get cancelled he might be able to improve on that department.

Though the fact that this is the method a lot of manga use to tell narrative doesn't make me too hopeful, WSJ might pressure him to continue this way.

>>148067375
Just ignore the shitposter, nigga. He's always there in every thread.

Don't bother. They're shitposters like you said.

Dunno why this manga got shitposted every thread. It's not even popular.

>>148070880
If it doesn't get cancelled, it'll probably get more popular with time.

Judging from the fact that next week chapter is the first of "Grace Field House Escape "arc, I'm kinda sure they won't succeed in one chapter, given all the difficulties they have

>>148069774
So, what is more reliable?
A shitty popular phrase or an entire medium who's shown the success of monologue style narrative?
Show don't tell has always been a retarded statement which has led to the dumbing down of exposition in western media.

its not just that its successful but that everything about japanese comics is made to be super expressive. Everything about manga has blushing, fire in the background, lightning sparks flying between too rivals or even the overdone analogies used in Kaiji. Its all meant to hammer a point hard. This allows manga to have a deeper narrative that can still be understood by a Japanese audience.

Even the shows that are meant to be mysterious and hard to understand hit you over the head with how we know nothing.

I bet he will die protecting Emma and also killing the sister or at least attempting to harm mama while buying time for the others.

I'd say this is the likeliest possibilities. Kill Krone and Isabella, and allow the others to escape.

That said, I don't think the other kids will make it.

Anyone else dropped it at this point? How fucking awful writing

>>148074034
What's wrong with it? It's been established since chapter 1 that Norman is good at tag because of his tactics.

>>148074185
>What's wrong with it?
I could write an essay but you wouldn't be able to comprehend it because you can't tell good from bad writing

>>148074034
Are you dumb? He obviously knew the place better then her, so he could trick her into thinking that she got him. How is that bad writing? It actually shows where his strenght's at.

>>148074310
You're retarded, I bet you were the anon flabbergasted at the 'plot twist' in the first chapter.

>>148074363
>literally having no argument and ignoring the estabilished character traits
Kill (You)rself.

>>148074310
It's the blatant exposition from Krone's part. This page is trying to 'show' that Norma was able to outsmart Krone, but the text here, particularly the very last part, beats you over the head about how she's at a disadvantage, as opposed to just having her think something more mild, "how is he doing this?" "when did he get there?" and have the reader reach their own conclusion that yes, despite her prowess she's being forced to chase after him, as opposed to being told this in one panel.

At least, that's what bugged me.

>>148073726
>>148073808
I think the point is that both boys knew the entire time they'd have to kill Mama and Kuro-onee and were actively prioritizing the feasibility of doing so, while Emma really is the naive member of the trio.

>>148070265
kek what the fuck.

Timeskip confirmed?

that's not what an 18 year old looks like
at least not in anime

>>148074591
I hope it's not all talk; if they really do kill one of the adults and WSJ shows it I'll be impressed.

>>148074741
I think sister Harambe is toast, since she's just thematically a warm-up to the even more physically imposing demons.

I suspect Mama will survive as a longer-term antagonist.

>>148074741
>>148074888
She'll probably just transform into a demon so that they can kill her off at the appropriate time.

>>148074942
demons being transformed humans all along would be such a cop-out, but I'm quite afraid of that upcoming "twist".

>>148075039
It's not really for 'cop out' reasons but to get past the age ratings.

But what else do you expect? Them to be actual humans? It just doesn't make sense.

>>148075039
>>148075121
It would only be a big cop-out if any of the main kids gets that ability.

>>148075197
please god no

>>148075218
If they're humans, wouldn't that be cannibalism? Would jump run with that?

>>148075249
They're still kicking themselves for passing on AoT due to the shit art and AoT recently had titan Armin eating Colossal-titan-kun.

>>148074741
Well, chapter 1 had a 6 year-old's corpse shown, so clearly the editors are giving them leeway.

>>148075197
I guess it's inevitable that the kids will eventually need abilities beyond "being good at tag".

>>148075359
Was that that mutilated corpse with a plant in it? I don't quite remember but I suppose you're right

>>148075396
hmm, kind of makes me want to drop the series right now since I don't see a timeskip happening this soon into the story and I can't think of another way to power up quickly. Not that it wouldn't be possible to drag this series out a little first.

>>148075405
That reminds me they haven't explained the flower going through her body. I'm guessing it's related to the flower the demon was holding on chapter 7, but what is it? Some kind of plant power?

>>148075486
I don't really understand chapter 1 having reread it just now, the flower is the method she was killed with right? Or is it something that grows out of your body at that age? why would they need to kill the body right there (other than to show of their hostility to the audience, and main characters)

Anime when?
Also, why the fuck did Jump even publish this manga to begin with?
What was the last time we have a child get killed and eaten in a Jump manga?

>>148075765
Naruto doesn't.

>>148067225
What?

The series is doing super well, it's not being cancelled

>>148075884
>super well
4 and 6 is good enough, not super well.

>>148075944
By that logic Jump would only have 5 long-running titles

>>148075982
You don't get it. If the next four rankings should be 7- for some reasons, it's already close enough to get axed just for that.

They cancelled Bleach despite netting several hits in the top 100 yearly volume sales

>>148067050
That nigga sista panel and the one where Mama was checking on Emma are actually pretty damn unsettling.

>>148076243
They care about rankings though. Bleach was an exception, because it made a good amount of cash. Yet it was cancelled eventually.

>>148076309
>bleach was an exception yet it was cancelled
Jump just keeps series it wants to keep. They don't care about rankings or profitability. They will keep this because they like it. They don't care about rankings.

>>148076070
LOL.

You mean the ranks for Ghosts Tits? Which is generally a centerfold series.

But the Takoban sales are super good, so it's a success despite that.

The same will be true for TPN if the first volume does well.

>>148076359
>They don't care about rankings or profitability.
How new are you?

>>148076392
>if
Ghost Tits and BC were lucky that they sold enough to appear in the oricon list. Demon samurai or what that shit is called, batsu and blablabla didn't. I doubt that the first volume of this will sell more than 15k.

>how new
Not an argument. Try to refute me or don't post at all

>>148076835
>Not an argument. Try to refute me or don't post at all
There's nothing to argue about. If you deny the relevance of the rankings, you're plain in denial.

>>148077039

>>148075884
>>148075944
>>148075982
I asked this earlier. Would the fact the American WSJ is running TPN (which means its presumably popular with western readers) have any effect on any decisions by Jump's board in the event that it goes down in rankings in Japan?

>>148077477
It has 0 effect as Viz also picked up the other two manga that came out around the same time as TPN, namely Red Sprite and Love Rush. Viz knows that at the least one of them will be axed 100%.

>>148077550
I see. How are Red Sprite and Love Rush doing in the rankings?

>>148077550
Hopefully it's Love Rush, Red Sprite is at least entertaining

>>148077782
Love Rush ranks next issue. Red Sprite ranks in Issue # 56.

>>148077782
Neither is ranked yet.

>>148077782
>>148077979
Oops, I mean Issue #46

>>148077791
Love Rush is now the only romance Manga in Jump, right? They might keep it just for that, until a better one comes around.

>>148078996
Ghost tits is also """""romance"""""

You are vastly overestimating 5 year olds. Actually if you are being serious you may have autism

Why the gate ceiling and the part below the demon table are all made by gears and pipes?

Other than the fact that they are probably manufactured by the same people

Also, has someone the Viz scans? The mangastream quality is low as usual, and I would like to observe the details of the pictures.

I'm not american and I don't even know if I can buy the series on Viz.

I don't know, but I think that demons' faces look kinda robotic. And then you have all these gears. Maybe they are sort of androids and not really demons.

>>148070265
Maybe the artist is trying to experiment with altering style to suit different moments. Having Norman in his older look made his motion to kill the mama's much more dramatic.

>>148067238
quit falseflagging Cumskin

>>148081401
She's ugly, yeah ugly people come in every race. But when the one and only black character is hideous and the white ones are good looking, it really says something. Even Kubo knew how to draw black women and he was incompetent.

>>148081536

It's exactly what I was thinking too. What if the kids aren't even killed? Maybe Conny was like paralyzed by that flower, and the purpose of the kids is not to eat them. I don't know. It is really strange to WSJ to have a series that has kids being killed and eaten as a main theme

He is amazing.

>>148081536
I used to think that they were aliens, not demons, but since it's clear they have some weird occult ritual and an offering to an entity, I'm nog sure anymore. I doubt they're robots, since when do robots do satanic rituals and eat children?

>>148081849
Emma is the protagonist though

>>148066737
This manga is amazing. Glad I found it.

>>148082038
Well, maybe they are crazy robots. I'm not sure, but some of them even have sort of gas masks with hoses.

>>148082087
Emma is pissing me off so much. She is not pretty and she has annoying personality.

This series lacks dramatic atmosphere. The idea is cool, but they talk too much. I mean, all the time. The storytelling gets overloaded.

>>148081113

Who?

>>148082357
I think she is fine. Who cares if she isn't pretty? Norman loves her and that's enough.

>>148082166
I think it's more the fact that there's a pair of 12 y.o.s premeditating murder, whether they succeed or not.

It's quite frankly the only viable strategy in their situation, so it's great seeming them realize and pursue it.

>>148082737
>Norman loves her and that's enough
For him. I still hate her.

>>148068491
The look on his face definitely changed this chapter. I wonder how Emma will take the idea of killing the sister.
Probably
>"If we kill them then we are no better than the monsters!"
>cryingface.jpg
Spare me, I hope they just do it. Kill or be killed kids.
I have a feeling Isabella has been waiting to raise the perfect children to escape and will somehow use their plot to flee to accomplish her own escape.

>>148066737
The Demons remind me of the 456 from Torchwood: Children of the Earth. They were an alien race that literally used children as drugs, and they tried to blackmail the world governments into giving them 10% of all children in the world.

>>148082800
>I have a feeling Isabella has been waiting to raise the perfect children to escape and will somehow use their plot to flee to accomplish her own escape.

That's an interesting idea. We don't really know if there's any place worth going to outside however and Krone was talking about how glad she was to be "back on this side".

>>148083025
the idea of this all taking place within a different dimension is appealing and would suffice as an option supporting the other side
I really can't imagine what this unknown land wherein Krone was prior to being stationed in the farm is like..
Wherever she was we should take note that her physical and mental capabilities were exercised as depicted in this chapter..
Shit maybe she was a forced surrogate I have no fucking clue

>>148081849
Could they kill her with a fork?

>>148083284
a question better suited for /b/

>>148075834

cause they're gonna ship her anon. They want to preserve the food

I think the rose is just a presentation thing

>>148083408
why did they kill her in such an unprofessional way then? Why didn't they just drug her, then kill her later? Why didn't they kill her and put her into a tube right away?

In the official VIZ scans the demons talk about completing a ritual before putting Connie's body on the container.

>>148083469

maybe they were in the process of pickling her and the MCs stumbled upon her right then.

It's like when you have gold flaked truffles. It's just a way of making food more extravagant by having a rose sticking out

I hope Black Soul Sistah doesn't died. She would have an interesting relation with the kids, especially if she plans to use them to take out mama.

>>148080792
So the demons are also giants?

>>148083284
The fork is pretty much a metaphor for killing though.

Is Norman a psychopath or something

his whole life is confined in a fucking orphanage, and he has the capacity to plot murder on someone?

>>148084860

The two who put Conny in the jar were as high as the truck, while the one with the kids data was a bit taller than Isabella. Since the one to the far right in the pic where all the demons are at the table is probably Gupna, I would say that all of them are tall as a human or a bit more

>>148066737
Is Sister Krone the only other adult they've ever seen?

Do humans learn about killing or is that just something we pick up on later on?

Do we know that people die when they are killed? Am I a fucking idiot for asking these questions?

I'm legit serious. Would a kid hypothetically understand mortality and murder if he was kept isolated from civilization with other people from birth and still learned his basic education and learned how to socialize?

It's weird that one or two insanely bad posters got mad over this when just about everyone here regularly refers to the goddamn scanlator of this series as Niggastream.

Also we're not the mangaka who is drawing the black sister as some sort of creepy big-lipped monster while the white one gets to be merely sort of creepy.

Of course Isabella the white lady gets to remain that sort of "creepy/cold but sorta beautiful" look but soul sista' here is drawn like ultra giga nigga for some reason.
