Me :
YUKIO 😭😭😭😭
Never thought I’d see the day cooking would be used as a power up for exorcism and to further character development :D
Can I also say it’s just so sweet that Osceola’s knowledge (who’s been a strong but secondary character until fairly recently, i love him and his design so much tho) resonates with Rin on such a personal level?
After all, cooking is the one thing Shiro thought hard about and decided that Rin would study at home with him…
because Rin needed an efficient way to learn how to control his strength.
Now we reached a point in the story when Rin admits to “having defeated his demon side” and controlling his flame, talking to Yukio about his doubts, and Sensei parallels it in the same chapter with…
…Rin actively learning about the field of talismanic cooking.
Also, I love how, little by little, Sensei highlights how Rin’s objectives have changed throughout the story, because of what he learnt about himself and about the dual world (made of Assiah and Gehenna) that they live in. In shonen series, the hero(es) often have one or several immovable goal(s) to achieve but Rin’s have steadily evolved. He initially wanted to kick Satan’s butt for Shiro’s death, but now…
…he realizes there’s just too much he doesn’t understand to be sure of what he can actually do.
EDIT: To elaborate, this was foreshadowed way back, during the Kyoto arc, that without understanding of both sides Rin would never become a bridge between Assiah and Gehenna…
…and once more in the Aomori arc…
…but it’s good that he started mentioning these doubts to people around him.
After all, in that alternate future that Mephy saw, Rin became the “demon king”, leader of the demon army, meaning that Rin’s hesitation is worth expanding on, or he’ll choose one side and fight against the other before long and I don’t think this is the answer Kato-sensei is going for. Yukio (with whom he discussed in this chapter) has just always been on the more careful side of things (also he’s like 16 years old) compared to, say, Shura…
…who understands that Rin’s situation has no precedent and that, at some point, Rin has to follow his instinct (still vouching that he’ll have to travel to Gehenna to gain more understanding of the situation but hey, I could be wrong).
Additionally, Rin also once said, early in the story, that he wanted to become Paladin, because that’s the title Shiro held before dying (and maybe also out of animosity towards Arthur), but reading this chapter, I found myself relieved thinking that Rin’s true calling might finally be upon us. :)) To say nothing of the fact that Paladins are previous Section 13′s Baal clones who are chained to the Order, I think the Paladin title (a very specific position at the top of the Order’s hierarchy) would suit Yukio or Bon more than Rin.
Great chapter!! :D
Alt. timeline Paku's Role
So there is nothing too solid on this theory yet. This is just a personal pet theory that kind of just popped into my head. With the recent revelations that most of the adults expect to die fighting Satan, I was thinking back to the alternate timeline.
One of the big mysteries of that one is that outside of Renzo and Rin, we don't see anyone else. They're just missing. It's one of the biggest things Paku is upset about. Her friends just went poof with literally no explanation.
From what we can tell so far, they probably died during the fight with Satan. At least in this alternate timeline. Leaving Rin all alone, with Renzo some how surviving. There's not enough info to completely confirm this but it's pretty easy to say that they are more than likely dead. Be that from round one's ending, or the upcoming round two.
Maybe they were all taken out because they didn't have clovers. Or maybe something happens later, it's hard to say. But that's the line of thought i'm going through with this personally. It's nothing solid, but it's just something.
As for this Paku, she seems to be incredibly important to the plot. Kato is pretty good at introducing characters, and keeping them relevant even if it does take like. 40+ chapters to have a pay off (yay monthly shonen releases). Paku is kind of a great example of this. She was introduced early on, kind of went off on her own, but now she's back. It's not OG Paku, but she's important for obvious reasons.
Alt. Timeline Paku has kind of been left up in the air, with one major thing before we went back to the original line.
Last time we see her, is here. A light starts to shine through this door, and she opens and goes through it. My biggest idea for her is she's going to be a major player in changing things. The one sent back from the bad future to warn the others so they don't repeat the same mistakes.
Personally, if Rin doesn't do anything next chapter and goes through the door (which I highly doubt given the look he had in the last few panels) we'll probably see her soon. Hopefully next chapter since I'm extra curious and excited for her to come back.
yukio being as unhelpful as usual
redrawssss <33
i don't like this much more than the original, but at least they have skin now
Losing my mind over him finally apologizing. So proud of him, and where he's come from. He did good!

Quiero hablarle y decirle que está bien bonito de su carita y de su todo :c
Chapter 140 huh
False alarm on the time skip? What happened for Rin to change so much? Is he okay? Are we going to see what happened in the past two years? Or was it just a grim possibility for the future? It looks like Mephisto has a lot of work to do if there are so many time rifts...
And uh, Yukio, are you alright buddy?
Girl spent almost two years training she deserves A R M S
