CAN WE TALK ABOUT AMON WAS HIT SO HARD THAT HIS WING OPENED????

Finally ! Some good Shura content !! <3

For the past few months, I've been complaining to some friends in private about being disappointed to see Shura rather casted to the side of the narrative, when the twins are still not able to communicate properly with each other (last month's chapter had more than one example). :/

In general, I'm a big fan of Shura's character, because she's one of the very few female mentors existing in Shonen series (protagonists, especially boys, are trained by older men in almost every Shonen series) and that was refreshing when I started the series something like 12 years ago. Shura gained even more depth with the Aomori arc explaining her past and rather unique circumstances and I loved her character development.

So I'm really happy to see her getting a bit more focus again, against the current foes.

If we first focus on the twins for this chapter, it really was interesting to see how they fell back into their old habit of respectively privileging people (Rin) and the mission (Yukio). It's yet another thing that might intensify the miscommunication that still exists between them, especially since both are really close to Shura.

For the record though, I don't blame Yukio at all for not stopping to help : the plan to defeat Satan & Illuminati is insane and that's why they have Team A opening the path for them.

Besides, Yukio has known Shura longer than Rin and he knows better than anyone what she's capable of. So rather than giving up on her, he's trusting her to survive (and I hope Rin will figure that out too). It's like in ch133, when he agreed to let her take the lead.

Lastly about her opponent, I'm 100% excited to finally read about Shura fighting against an opponent who is probably supposed to incarnate, like, every criticism she ever faced.

Like I said above, Shura is one of the few female mentors existing in Shonen series. However, unfortunately, she's also the typical "sexy older lady" that is way overrepresented in Shonen series. But now?

Hell, now, she's about to face this guy, the King of Lust, and I'm hoping that, through this fight, Kato-sensei might once more highlight that women in Shonen are more than boobs here to please the readers' eye.

Sure, they can be sexy, but they can also be mentors, fighters and most importantly they can also fight and defeat guys (because I'm super tired of the whole "girls will only fight girl opponents, teehee ❤" in Shonen series; I said what I said).

Can't wait for that fight, because I think Shura will prove to readers of Shonen series that you can be a badass girl and hand even the King of Lust his own ass. So go for it, Shura ! Show 'em what it's like to be Fujimoto Shiro's student and Rin's mentor !!

Okay, but I'm beyond CRAZY after this chapter especially because there was a LOT of my man and his INCREDIBLE ARMOR SKAJAHAHAFANSBS. But on the other hand, I'm starting to TOTALLY worry about him now because when Amon will use his full full power, it's going to be bad. I'm also seriously worried about Shura, like the King of The Lust !!!???? And their conversation during the fight will definitely be more than weird and extremely uncomfortable I think? Have to prepare for this but I'm not sure that this preparation will be enough. This information about Iblis (thanks to the winners of today's award, my sincere congratulations again 🎉) was exactly what I needed 🤣 But some kind of visualization would be also great 🤣 And I still laugh like a maniac when I see ponies like we have serious action, battle, blasts etc...and PONIES 🤣 And I wonder if we'll see more Kings ( YES PLEASE)
