My actual reaction to Theta's name being mention three times by Salcov this chapter :
I think i missed her a little bit.
Since Benjamins' men have been searching in Terror Sandwich's residential area, it is likely they will find her in the staff room unless the First Prince orders them to abandon the search and follow him in his maneuver after he has "killed" Terror Sandwich.
This guy really doesn't have time since he's going to die in half a day because of that witch of Camilla and especially not enough time for Terror Sandwich lol. I laugh so hard when he broke down in a very determined way the door of his apartments and when he didn't even wait a single second to kill him as soon Terror Sandwich opened his mouth.
The problem between these two seems way too personal XD. I wonder if it's because they have the same mother and therefore lived together whe they were kid. I don't know. Halkenburg is also Terror Sandwich's brother, yet they get along well.
But let's still applaud our hero Benji for shoping the fuck of Terror Sandwich, even if that bastard most certainly got away with it his Zetsu ability.
Very satisfying panel btw
As for the rest of the chapter, I really enjoyed it. There was a lot more action than usual, which was refreshing because we'd gotten used to the walls of text that gave us headaches after years of reading this arc chapter.
Our poor Benji is unfortunately going to leave us sooner than expected, but it's okay. He's already played a crucial role in this war. I didn't quite understand his and Furikov's whole thing about his Nen beast that would allow him to become some kind of mystical, spiritual being who could watch over the Kakin royal family or something like that, but it's amazing how quickly I'm starting to like him XD.
Prince Camilla will also have to leave soon since my little Benji gave her his disease (she was an interesting character, but frankly, I won't miss her). I don't know if this will affect the progression of the disease, but since she says she's capable of going into a state of hibernation, perhaps it will prolong her life. But I can't imagine our little Cami doing that, especially since she also has an army of people carrying a curse for each of the princes, so she certainly won't stay silent.
People theorized that Benji was trying to quickly kill all the princes and win the succession war before dying so he could pass the succession to one of his children (it's not even confirmed he has any, lol, I'm not even sure the princes of Kakin are allowed to marry). But since he lets Camilla die after him and leaves the other princes alive, I think he's more likely trying to eliminate his most tenacious rivals before dying. That way, he'll be sure he can easily manipulate the prince who wins the succession after he dies.
Terror Sandwich has already finished staging his death with Salcov. He had a particularly mysterious and charismatic aura during this chapter... He must have something else planned, I can't wait to find out what. I don't know how he's going to fake his death with the 10-second time delay, but I'm not too worried, This man is terrifying.
I also really appreciated Salcov's determination to save Theta. I've always loved their friendship, I've seen several people start saying he's in love with her, maybe I was just a blind aromantic not to see it, but I honestly don't have anything against the ship. I just hope Terror Sandwich doesn't do anything to him. I'm holding out hope because that guy could barely remember Salco's name XD.
All of this starting to get incredibly interesting!
