THE RETURN OF APPLE????
THE PROPHECY.
It’s so nice that, after his great and shameful defeat, Touya is taking Lava Lamp around on a tour of the kingdom (though the frame on the first page seems to show that he hasn’t given up his teasing whatsoever)(and we love to see it).
I love that the marketplace + apple + friendly citizens + the lead up to Sakura’s birthday makes a clear line to the Time Loop situation, which would have been stolen from about a day in the future of this moment if I’m counting right? How lovely and terrible at the same time.
OOP IT’S EVEN THE SAME PEOPLE? I WOULD RECOGNISE THOSE TWO ANYWHERE, Enthusiastic Man and Disappearing Cotton Eye Joe!
NO
NO DID THEY REALLY
CONFIRM THAT
LAVA LAMP ACTUALLY KNEW
AND SPOKE TO
THE CHILD HE WAS FORCED TO WATCH MELT IN THE TIMELOOP
THAT IS SO MUCH WORSE THAN IT WAS BEFORE
