I just read the chapter and holy damn.


Like it was only 12 pages but man. Peak.

So the older Allen was completely different from our Allen?

Nea is so over the top lol.




So are we going to be saying bye bye to our Allen? :josad:

I think it's possible we get glimpses of the old Allen and him taking over temporarily until the new Allen aka current Allen aka our Allen lol takes over and then combines the two or something developing further or something. Or he just manages to stay true to his philosophy and remain the same. Ngl lots of potential here.

Why does it have to be 3-4 chapters a year man :josad:

I think (or hope) that we will be indeed saying goodbye to our "Allen" - as in, saying goodbye to Mask of Mana. Thing is, I think "Red" was also a mask, so real Allen will be something fairly different from both of them.

I mean, chapters are literally titled "Saying goodbye to Allen Walker". I just hope "saying goodbye" won't be Neah erasing him.

I think our Allen will find a completely new answer
The "past" Allen is dead and lived a second life
I donโ€™t think that our Allen would throw away his oaths
chapter 222 already made it clear, just reread it guys


Our current Allen will not change BUT he doesnโ€™t know how to solve this whole problem
He will find an answer by remembering his past. He will finally understand Nea but wonโ€™t forget his oath's


Itโ€™s gonna be a complicated situation and Iโ€™m soooo hyped
Allen is a great MC and has even now the possibility to get better

I'm not talking about his oaths. I'm talking about his personality, the mask that he has been wearing for nearly the entire manga but that has been slipping off as of lately.

The "perpetually polite" smiling Allen is nothing but a mask. That is why Kanda disliked him, why Marian constantly went out of his way to provoke Allen: Allen himself is a fake personality created as a way to respect Mana. It is such an irony that Allen helped Lavi throw the mask off and become more genuine, when he himself is such a liar.

Even Hoshino disliked him in the beginning
:suresure:
but yeah I understand what you mean

man I miss our main groupโ€ฆ
I hope weโ€™ll finally see Lavi and Lenalee again

Yeah, so do I. As much as I like having more Johnny content, Lavi has been absent for way too long - to the point that I started reading fanfiction just to get some new Lavi content.

Started reading this series, just finished the part with Lala the doll and the ugly guy
Good luck! Manga only becomes better as it goes on, both in terms of art and story.

Yes, what I think is that we will see an evolved Allen, or as you say, finally the true Allen. He will stay true to his goals, but let loose finally.

Above Crossy. I believe Allen will emerge as a new person or as the real him. He will stay true to his goals and philosophy, but will be different.

Yes thatโ€™s the most realistic scenario
 
Hmmm I donโ€™t think so

I have a question for you guys:
What happened to Lavi?
Is he the new Bookman? Will he meet Lenalee and Marie or Kanda and Tiedoll?
Does he know about the "hidden side" of this Holy War?
Canonically? He is still being held by the Noahs. Also, he is not the new Bookman since IIRC Bookman is still alive - and is now in the mansion. But he probably knows something about the "hidden side"... I'm fairly certain Bookman himself does.

Bookman knows about the hidden side
Heโ€™s waiting in the mansion for Allen but his condition is probably not good
This is why I think that he officially gave his title to Lavi
I think both escaped because of Wisley
They mentioned it in the question corner but Iโ€™m not sure

OK. I guess we will have to wait and see.
 
At around chapter 110 (give or take)
They're fighting David and what's his face

Takeaways so far:
The art is really hard to follow during fight scenes, I don't know if this aspect gets better later on

The characters are ok-ish. Allen is a good protagonist, though I wish he was even more involved in the plot than he is now.

The innocence as a power system is interesting and a good excuse to basically create whatever you want as a weapon (from the mangaka's side)

Villains - boy, when I saw the Level 1 akuma in the first arc I thought "if this is the level of villain design we're working with, I'm droping this quicker than 3rd period French"
Glad the author proved me wrong quickly.

The overall plot is still iffy to me, but granted there's ~140 chapters left for me to read. But like with all manga where the story has been going on for hundreds of years or even multiple millenia, you have to heavily suspend your disbelief to believe that the Earl couldn't have found the Heart in all these years

Anyways, wanted to leave my thoughts while they're still fresh
