When we finally got a face reveal of the Echidna who lay in the grave, her face structure turned out to be totally different. So are there two Echidna's in the world of Re:Zero?

WARNING: The following article contains major spoilers from chapter 138 of Attack on Titan manga. Read ahead at your own discretion! AOT chapter 138 took my expectations and assumptions about what could have happened in the series and threw it straight out of the window. The spree of unexplained events continued as Isayama delivered some gut-wrenching moments in the latest chapter. It is hard to see how he will tie up all the loose ends in just 45 pages. That said, the fandom has been trying its best to come up with…

Reiner, Annie and Pieck are all forced to go through some harrowing moments in the latest chapters. Will they come out of it unscathed? I don't think so.

In Re:Zero Season 2 Episode 16, we get a glimpse of what Emilia actually has to deal with in her trials. It is not just an unknown past that she has to overcome; but also a venom spewing Echidna. This explains why she broke down so easily and so often in the trials. But the Emilia that we saw in the latest episode is different. Her memories that were sealed away are slowly coming back since Puck broke the contract. Along with that, she has gained newfound courage to face the obstacles that lie in front of her. And how…

If you are watching Jujutsu Kaisen keenly, you may have noticed that almost all Jujutsu Sorcerers have a tendency to cover their eyes. In fact, even Itadori notices this while he accompanies Nanami. From Gojo Satoru to Principal Yaga of Tokyo Metropolitan high, everyone wore a blindfold or sunglasses, so that their eyes would be covered. Even Mei Mei, whom we see later in the series, uses her hair to cover her eyes. The only exceptions were the principal of Kyoto Metropolitan high and Utahime Iori (even Ieiri Shouko), but…

Puck has been a constant partner and acted as a surrogate father to Emilia. He proudly claims that there is no one in this world who loves Emilia as much as him. Not even Subaru! But, in Re:Zero Season 2 Episode 14 ( or Part 2 episode 1), we see that Puck broke his contract with Emilia. And this was a strictly one-sided affair. Emilia was already going through a hard time because of the trials of the Sanctuary. However, instead of helping her clear them, Puck blindsides. Emilia is confused at Puck's behaviour (and so…

The following chapter contains spoilers for Jujutsu Kaisen Chapter 134 and everything related to it. Read ahead at your own discretion! It was revealed way back in Jujutsu Kaisen manga that the Geto we see is not the real one. A brain had taken over his body. To be more precise, it is a cursed technique that allows this mysterious person to hop between bodies by switching brains. This mysterious person switched out Getou's brain for his and is now in control of Getou. Chapter 90 of Jujutsu Kaisen brought this…

In Oden’s flashback, we see a young Shanks apprenticing aboard the Oro Jackson with Buggy. While Roger made the historic voyage to Laugh Tale, Shanks was forced to stay back because Buggy went down with an illness. When the crew returned, Oden notes that Shanks asked Roger something and then he began crying. This was probably because of what Roger said in reply to his question. While this is but a very small scene, it managed to stir up fans, who believe this symbolized something bigger. Given how One Piece creator Eiichiro…

It came as a surprise to many when Mahito, who seemed very much like a human due to his appearance and his intellect, turned out to be a cursed spirit. Siding with Getou, the immature and childish curse has become a thorn in the path of our young Jujutsu sorcerers. His involvement with Junpei and his role in the Shibuya incident made Mahito one of the primary antagonists of the series.  Though Mahito started out as a curse who was not even as strong as Jogo, he quickly became a formidable opponent thanks to him learning…

The following article contains spoilers from chapter 999 and the Wano arc of One Piece manga. Read ahead at your own discretion. In the arc that explores Oden’s past, it is revealed that he was a part of Whitebeard’s crew. Not only was Oden loved by them, but he rose to the position of Second Division commander. He was seen as a brother by none other than Whitebeard himself. The feelings remained even after he left them to join Roger’s crew and then returned to Wano. However, when Oden was deceived and killed,…

While using Junpei to push Itadori to his limits, Mahito mentioned multiple times that he wanted Sukuna to form a binding vow or contract with Itadori. The youngster’s death was supposed to be a breaking point for Itadori. This would then force him to resort to Sukuna’s help. And he wouldn’t get any help unless he enters into a formal contract with him.  Not just that, this contract would be in Sukuna’s favour. From what we have seen, Sukuna, for now, does not seem to be allied with the cursed spirits. But then Mahito…

The following article contains major spoilers from the vs. Mahito arc of Jujutsu Kaisen. Read ahead at your own discretion! Ever since we saw them in action, we knew for sure that Mahito and Getou Suguru are people who cannot be trusted. When a traumatised Junpei stumbles upon Mahito after witnessing his actions in the movie theatre, the latter takes him under his wing. Though our insides screamed that Mahito was upto no good, Junpei seemed to trust him completely. In fact, the cursed spirit played him so well that at…

Captain John's treasure is one of the mysteries in One Piece that fans are curious to unravel. While it's not at the same level of Laugh Tale or Joyboy and the Poneglyphs, the mystery of the treasure does have a cult following. Before the Wano arc began, popular theories online suggested how Captain John's treasure could be related to the One Piece. Some outrageous theories also hinted at John and Gol D. Roger being the same person. However, come Wano arc, we hear it from none other than Sengoku himself that Captain John…

The success of shounen series, especially the ones that deal with out-of-the-world elements, largely depends on the world-building they do. And Jujutsu Kaisen has got its basics of world building right. There is a lot more to it than just a one-dimensional "oh come let's find all the fingers of Sukuna" plot. It would have been very much like Demon Slayer then, defeating one Upper Moon after the other. Instead, each episode (and even the manga chapter) of Jujutsu Kaisen slowly weaves a web around you, dropping hints,…

Before we start, let me tell you this, I am not satisfied with the title that I have given for this tinfoily post of mine. The idea that is going to be explored here goes like this, "What if the Poneglyphs or the people that created the Poneglyphs were actually sent back in time?". Many of you would already brand this too outrageous and skip this article right away. But for those who have decided to stay, this is going to get pretty wild! Most of this is me making wild assumptions. I have backed up my claims wherever I…

Kaido's Beast Pirates are a handful to manage. It's not as if you could tie a leash around their necks and they'd suddenly be compliant. Being disobedient is one thing, but hassling the Straw Hat crew while they try to liberate a friendly samurai nation is totally not acceptable. Oh! If only there were a way to tame this weird looking, noisy bunch. Let me state this. I am not against heteromorphs. I love powerful half-beast, half-humans as long as they are on my side. And if a Kibi Dango is what is needed for them to…

The following article contains spoilers from the latest chapters of Noragami. Read ahead at your own risk. Noragami manga has been progressing at a snail's pace recently. Chapter 91 is no different as it only has 22 pages. But, even so, it sheds light on some crucial information regarding Yukine's past. It's surprising how my assumptions were all proved wrong by what was revealed in this chapter. I had always believed that Yukine was forced to stay back with his father. Probably because of legal issues regarding…

Could Attack on Titan get any darker than it already is? I mean, Isayama did hint long back that the ending would not be something that makes everyone happy. But the despair and pain that the latest chapter exhibits is way too much. I am at a loss here. It is literally hard to root for a single side now. Attack on Titan ch. 134 is titled "In the Depths of Despair." And, true to its title, we see humanity's hopelessness painted all over the chapter. Hopes and lives, both are crushed under the huge legs of the Colossal…

Eren has no doubt stolen the spotlight in Attack on Titan Chapter 133. The reason? The chapter just made his future very bleak. Hange Zoe’s death, though kinda forced, had hit me hard. And if another character (read Annie, Jean or Pieck) were to bite the dust in this chapter, it would have been too much to take. Thankfully Isayama decided to spare us all the agony. But he does go ahead and plant some serious death flags for our protagonist turned antagonist Eren Yeager. The members of the alliance were trying to chalk up…

The following article contains major spoilers for Attack on Titan (Shingeki no Kyojin) Chapter 132. Read ahead at your own discretion! As a fan of Attack on Titan and Hajime Isayama's narration style, I am no stranger to major characters dying in crucial moments. In fact, it was given that I'd have to witness major character deaths as the series came close to its grand finale. However, the death of a much loved character in Chapter 132 of Attack on Titan could have been more convincing. The Alliance force, which…
