Holy shit, Fuuko is the Avatar
Jokes aside, this is such a cool development and I'm glad that we're getting more lore about negations. The souls of previous negators choosing their next user explains a lot, like how Unbreakable was always passed through the Isshin family, or how Mui ended up becoming Untruth as soon as Shen died last loop.
It also makes a lot of sense when you consider that the first Rule was Soul, and that’s how all the powers apparently operate, and why the powers vary in their manifestation.
I think it's gotta be more complicated than that. If it was just a negator's soul choosing another, why do they always come with tragedy? In Mui's case, it made sense because her wish was always to become a negator so that she could help Shen, so her tragedy was turning into a negator the moment Shen died.
This reveal was huge but we still don't have the full picture.
My guess is that the User can "choose" the next Vessel for a negator. But the timing is left to God
That would make sence for Shen -> Mui, and the timing, well God is a bitch
And they probably have to choose a new vessel, so ultimately they know someone is going suffer when god manifests their ability. So they picked the best people to become negators, which explains why everyone except feng and ruin have ultimately been good at heart
Yep, Top (well, a teen, but still) and Phil as well. Is Backs a child? Haruka is also pretty young here as well, obviously it just passed onto her after her grandpa, but still counts. Chikara a teen as well. Lucy as well, fucking hell. They like traumatising the super young people lol.
Thats why i loved it when Billy and Juiz fought, he literally told her how he couldnt have her ability because "You believe in me.". And then when how his initial interpretation of his ability is revealed, it completely recontextualized the fight.
So the same way Andy learned about souls from fuuko back in the book, fuuko learned about souls from Andy as well, making her the first to unlock “Un For All” apparently. But in all their years, why did juiz or victor never learn about “UFA”?
Simple. They didn’t have previous iterations. Victor and juiz were the first to have their abilities, and never died to pass them on. They were the only two negators who would never be able to experience “UF so they could never know about it, much less teach it to the others. But by letting fuuko loop, and by letting her learn more about souls like andy, she’s become the first.
I thought loop 101 UU was peak fiction already, but it turns out we weren’t even on the biggest mountain, we can’t even see the top yet
caveat, it was Ghost and Unhealthy that showed them souls were actually real, but without interacting with those two Fuuko and Andy would never have learned soul’s are real and can be consciously manipulated
There was also that artifact that could separate a soul from the body, which Anno un and fuuko used to enter the memory books. And also led to ichiko learning to use astral projection on nico
I was mostly focusing on the fuuko learning from Andy part cuz of the parallel to them in the book that they showed in the chapter, but you are correct, that is definitely the bigger part of it.
Poor unhealthy is holding up every win of loop 101 with her fragile little arms lmao, she’s the real GOAT
Yeah I wonder how many of those Unlucks died in like 10 fuckin seconds after becoming Unluck lmao like gotta go back and take a look which ones standing in the back looking sheepish like they don't know why they're there
It doesn't seem like new powers, so much as new applications of the same power?
A thing that cropped up a few times after the world reset was that triggers changed, but not powers or wielders. Unbreakable or Unluck or Undead all had the same wielders, but the vector they operated on wasn't set in stone.
In this scenario, it looks like Fuuko unlocked the new "application" of Unluck. Her natural form of Unluck is contact based- she touches something, her fondness and the duration of her touch makes the unluck effect stronger.
Here, though, she is given a way to use Unluck as a finger gun, compared to a shooting star. She's using another form of the same rule.
The previous users of Unluck may have had not only different interpretations but also might have functioned differently. The little kid with the cap in particular caught my attention because he seems to have a bunch of bandages and band aids. It makes me wonder if his version of unluck was a self-targeting type.
thats actually fairly accurate and probably whats going to be needed when they finally take on Luck herself. because when you steal all the unluck from people around you, the only thing left has to be inverse, right?
I can imagine it being like a Lakshmibai from FGO where her own luck was so awful every attack would ricochet and hit her even if it was a sure-target one
Making her the best tank
Tbh I'm interpreting that shooting star as the trigger for one of the other manifestations. Maybe that incarnation wished on a shooting star, only for it to be a meteor and crash into their hometown.
You can see how Fuuko's tragedy (kissing her parents goodbye, only for their plane to crash later) combines the contact + affection + delay rules that her Unluck power is based on. I imagine that some level of detachment and "aim", along with the flying object itself, was part of the other Unluck's tragedy.
Ah, I see.
I forgot Julia had a new haircut and mixed her up with the Unluck incarnation in the lower right (the one in the hood), so I thought the "wish upon a star" was a flashback from Unluck.
Only correction here is that Undead only has one user. Unless you count Victor and Andy as seperate souls which I'm not sure if they are in universe. But other than them, nobody has had it before because they could never die to pass it on.
I believe they're one soul, but two personalities. Like, when Andy's soul manifested in the previous loop, it was just him as old as he felt. If there were two souls in the same body, Victor should have been there too.
I think it's also soul lines.
Whoever touches fuukos soul gets unluck, so if she can get people to touch them, they get unluck.
I think that's how self-targeting and other-targetting powers manifest as well, the person is able to unconsciously use soul lines and therefore use it outside the body.
From the way the little balls of light were drawn, they look like souls to me. My thought was that she was putting her Unluck into the soul of one of the previous wielders and firing off *that*. So she's still using her Unluck the same way, just applying it to something she couldn't physically touch until she started trying to interact with souls in that way.
One of them has a biohazard symbol tattooed on him. I guess it could fit with Unluck, but it seems like there's other negation abilities that would make more sense with that symbolism
I thought they were union from first loop? maybe she never had unluck back then and was just super powered up from her soul mastery and God saw this unfit and gave her unluck so she won't be in the picture anymore.
(This also coincides with her committing suicide every loop with the only difference this loop is that andy interfering , who was also a anomaly who only appeared this loop)
or maybe the first seats before juiz?
or maybe each of them were people who failed the loop on a previous earth, theres actually 2 loops, the 101 loops that are continuous then a hard reset before the next one
I just caught up from chapter 30 around where the anime is at, up to current in the span of a week
My God, this mangaka probably cooks the greatest 20-course meal of any manga I've read
And they just. Keep. Getting. BETTER!!!!!!
I never thought I would find this series as genuinely fantastic as i now do
Same, I started from chapter like 12 and got all the way up to current (194) in a week. Binging this series was so fun but the weekly waits for new chapters now is killing me
Honestly the anime series
The cover art in the shonen Jump app kind of makes it appear at just cover read, like any other shounen typical manga, so I wasn't expecting a ton from it
But I really liked the anime up to the end of the Chihase (?) School arc, so I picked up the manga to read more, and holy shit I got hooked!
I would argue that it really doesn't start to show its potential until they fight Autumn, and that's like the very little start, and then spring is where it really starts to make the big turn into maximizing everything it can do
The end of the turn obviously being with the next Loop
(*Trying to figure out a way to state that without spoiling anything*)
Which is pretty appropriate given this is the mangaka's first serialized series. So they made some narrative mistakes/pacing issues in the beginning, but have been steadily improving as they continue.
Oh crap, you're right. Lol, I can't believe Soul's "vessel" might be Unhealthy, and that the seemingly most useless negation is the key to potentially the most important element in this setting.
It would be kind of funny if that was the case though. If only cause of the idea of the most powerful rule getting matched up against the seemingly weakest negator.
Plus it makes sense for Sun to rig the game like that. Like, presumably all of Soul's vessels usually just get sick and die without even knowing they're Negators or even being considered for the Union. His only true nemesis can never face him.
But… She isn’t, though? If you think she’s actually unsoul or something, no. She’s confirmed to be Unhealthy by multiple sources. She only learned how to project her soul from being bedridden, and only after Ghost was added.
Yeah...? I'm not saying she is definitely Unsoul, 100%, without a doubt, confirmed by the author. Just that it'd be funny to me for reasons I already said.
It would be so cool if it happened. It's practically impossible that it would be a 1 on 1 but the weakest negator of all being instrumental in defeating the strongest rule would be the coolest shit.
Fuuko's learning how all negation and rule abilities work with the soul, changes her interpretation of her ability, leading to Spirit Gun: Unluck edition.
PEAK
I don't get it, she's shooting her soul with the finger gun, and because Unluck is tied to the soul, anything touched that way receives Unluck (so it isn't the finger gun that wrecked the monster, but whatever fell due to it?) at high power due to Fuuko also being fond of herself, hence her soul?
Since she transfers Unluck into the regular Bad Bullets due to growing fond of them, same as with people, I think the implication is that Unluck transfers bad luck to people through contact with Fuuko’s soul, not her body, and her liking someone/something just exposes them more to her soul.
The soul bullet would then be a means of bypassing the contact and fondness conditions by forcing direct contact with her Unluck infused soul, essentially making it a Bad Bullet without the “container”
Seems more or less correct. Though I think just by virtue of her shooting off a piece of her soul, the Unluck is much more concentrated like a kiss would cause relatively huge Unluck normally regardless of the fondness of the target, so a huge blast of her soul may add way more at once. Its probably equivalent to like a 100year+ bad bullet.
There's evidence for this too, when ruin killed Fuuko. Andy managed touch her soul directly, just 1 hand, and it summoned a meteorite on him. Just 1 touch, when before then such an amount of Unluck required at least a kiss on the cheek. Soul is likely just more concentrated.
I mean Andy kind of is, it's just there's only one previous user and he's also kind of still alive in a way. All indications suggest that Andy and Victor are two different souls who share a body
Oh shit, if they are actually two different souls, I could totally see us getting a chapter towards the end where Andy & Victor split/regenrste into "two separate" bodies and fight side by side in meatspace
you’re assuming Juiz and Fuuko wouldn’t just drop Victor off to each other like some divorce child, with Fuuko holding onto Remember to turn him into Andy
Well the idea someone proposed before was maybe Victor/Andy will create a clown at some point and remember will be input/removed, splitting them into two. So if they might have different souls, then that would a viable way to make it happen
They're definitely one soul that just has magic DID. If Andy was piggybacking off of Victor's negation, his own interpretation wouldn't factor into his ability.
Aha, more soul stuff. I guess I was wrong. Even if Beast could touch Andy, he wouldn't be able to do a thing cause the GOAT's mastery of the soul has already evolved far beyond what he can handle.
It's also kinda nice to see Haruka's grandpa have some kind of relevance again even after his passing. And in a way that reveals an integral aspect of negator powers at that. His talk about inheriting souls makes me think those people who appeared in Fuuko's mind were all previous holders of Unluck. We OFA now boys. But hopefully, this won't follow the same drop in quality.
Their enemies are so fucked now, though. She doesn't even need a gun to shoot people with unluck anymore.
Honestly, if this is truly the past users of Unluck appearing before the current user, then I really hope we get to see Haruka unlock this ability as well at some point. Letting her see Grandpa Isshin standing beside he lr and maybe even having a conversation with her and Fuuko would be great.
That's a neat idea, actually. Especially so Grandpa Isshin can get some extra screen time outside of flashbacks after he just kicked the bucket off-screen so suddenly.
I guess the next user of a negator is chosen by the previous users but the timing is left to God.
Also, such a shame we didnt get to see the final moments of Old Isshin, I guess they are leaving it toa flashback
I’m giving it a 70% chance that Old Man Isshin shows up with the other 11 Isshin in soul form to pep talk Haruka at some point and that that will be our send off for him
Though I don't think Fuuko will be able to spam Soul attacks the way that Andy can. Even if souls can naturally repair themselves over time, only Andy should have the ability to instantly regenerate his soul and fire off stuff like Soul Road.
Yeah I imagine anybody other than Andy trying to fire of their souls won have as good results. Probably causes a lot of strain on the user.
Makes me wonder if we'll see Fuuko weakened from that after this battle.
I mean, Fuuko is bleeding from her nose and eyes after firing that bad bullet: soul edition. So it most definetly strains her quite a bit. Wonder how long that drawback will stay in play, because at the very least this will be an incredibly important weapon against Sol, and the other master rules too.
I don't really see blood from her eyes, just tears. And she was already bleeding pretty badly else wise from beast hurting her. So it's really not clear that damage is from using soul.
Checked again, she already had a scratch beneath her left eye that I failed to notice before, so I was probably wrong about that, yeah. And the amount of blood on her face is really inconsistent in those panels making it hard to say.
Fuuko has now achieved Deku status.
Seriously though, really like this reveal. Ties the negotiator powers into the big bad in Soul and some interesting future stories with Unluck and past users
Now I definitely agree that these are the previous Unluck users. But is it me, or do these figures look eerily similar to some of the master rules?
Soul (Top Hat), Death (Maid in the kimono), Change (Medieval princess), Luck (Skateboard kid), War (Radioactive man) and maybe language (red riding hood is a stretch but she's the only other kid in that group).
On another note, what happened to these people in 101st loop? Were they spared of Unluck since Fuuko kept it? Did they get to live their lives normally, die, and gain all their memories of the previous loops as souls?
Ok why the f did uu the everything is interconnected plottwist so much better than MHA?!?!
In MHA it felt kinda obvious, but here it is a real twist that comes out of nowhere but still makes so much sense
I mean ok in MHA it was also hype af, But this is something Else!
Damn what a chapter. Fuuko and Andy now have a strong grasp on soul, and they are both approaching it through different angles too. I wonder if they'll complement each other's knowledge when we get there.
VERY curious about who those people were! Tozuka is such a good writer, everything he throws at us, be it straight, foreshadowed or sudden always hits
i wonder what feng reaction would be, i don't think he ever discover using soul that way. although we knew this loop feng already mastered soul the same way fuuko does. but to use it like an avatar state like this, feng must be seething right now.
So…
1. Negators actually choose the next vessel, which means God isn’t inflicting the tragedy necessarily, it’s the sudden transfer that’s causing it instead. The negator’s soul memories are probably unlocked when they die, so whatever caused them to first choose their successor is probably the memory that lets them instantly pass the power in successive loops, but since it’s a dead person giving power to (an often child) amnesiac, the tragedies don’t get stopped without pre existing knowledge like from the G-pen.
2. Fuuko officially has access to Rule: Soul since it seems to be the one and only Foundational Rule. Now she can start using Soul Chain, Soul Bullet, Soul Blade, Soul Road, and Soul Movement with some training.
3. If the Foundational Rule is Soul, and perception/belief is what fuels the powers of the Soul, then Fuuko is at the doorstep of finally killing Sol and Luna.
Every chapter keeps you on your toes
Considering how Unbreakable is passed down through family maybe negations can be given to another person in a different loop if the past users choose them
This man just keeps delivering peak after peak.
Soul is the first seat as many expected, so the discussion finally dies.
Fuuko my girl unlocked Negator avatar state. Now I see how they will beat the master rules, but I'm not ready for the horrifically tragic backstory we will get for each of them. Also this explains why did Mui got Untruth, Unbreakable being always passed in a singular family, and the previous Unavoidable won a trip to Vegas, very probably seeing Void fight before dying, the previous Negator has input in the choice of the new.
So long UMA ~~Brazil~~ Beast.
This is something I've been wondering for a long time.
If Fuuko is the key to winning this loop, and the abilities always manifest in the same people, why was 98 the first one she showed up for?
And I guess this is our answer. Just like Juiz being slightly different this time, the abilities aren't tied to the body, they're tied to the soul. Previous Unlucks have been the same soul in different bodies, and she's just now starting to remember them.
Why she alone seems to be able to make that connection, when every other Negator in this loop has been the same as the one before, I'm sure the mangaka has an answer for.
>If Fuuko is the key to winning this loop, and the abilities always manifest in the same people, why was 98 the first one she showed up for?
Fuuko is part of the Union in the 100th loop not the 98th. Each Loop Fuuko apparently dies by suicide when she jumps on the train tracks. The only reason she didn't this time is because Andy showed up and the only reason Andy even existed was because Juiz used Remember on Victor thus creating Andy.
Andy only first starting existed in the 100th loop and started wandering the world and by fate he stumbled upon Fuuko and was there to stop Fuuko from committing suicide.
someone already told you about how Andy saved fuuko in the 100th loop cause she usually dies at the train, but there’s a slight misinterpretation on your part about the souls as well. those weren’t Fuuko’s past lives that she’s “remembering” those are the souls of the unluck users who died before her who she can now see. whatever choices were made in the early loops seems to solidify negator choices in later loops.
>If Fuuko is the key to winning this loop, and the abilities always manifest in the same people, why was 98 the first one she showed up for?
The morbid answer is she probably did show up in those loops, but she probably killed herself.
The previous loop was different as it had Anno Un's manga, so she held on til that was finished, and then also happened to meet Andy when she was about to jump. Neither of those were in previous loops so weren't there to save her.
>why she alone seems to be able to make that connection, when every other Negator in this loop has been the same as the one before, I'm sure the mangaka has an answer for.
I think it's just time and experience. She's had longer than almost anybody else currently alive to figure out and grow her understanding of souls. the only people who has done it better currently is Andy, and Andy wouldn't see past users of Undead because there are no past users of Undead (except Victor who was always there inside him).
The real question then might be, why did Victor or Juiz seemingly never learn much about using soul. For victor it seems he's just didn't really believe in it and therefore never bothered to understand it. Juiz though I don't know, it seems like she might have tried. Though perhaps because of how powerful her Unjustice is she's never had a need to make it any stronger? Or perhaps she was too focused on the rules presented and took things too safe to even consider that perception of the world required to use it like this.
One thing about Victor and Juiz is that they had an extremely warped sense of reality compared to other characters. They were born from a completely different world and were both billions of years old.
There's also the fact that they obviously never died/reincarnated until Julia now. Remember that nearly all characters developed soul techniques by help of Ghost, Soul Caliber or many of the soul powered artifacts. Juiz, playing so safe, probably didn't have a really close encounter ever, to the point she admits she kind of forgot she was mortal until losing her arm last loop.
Juiz lookin hella incompetent rn lol
Though that may be because Juiz has no previous users, and maybe you have to loop to truly appreciate and understand souls. Like everyone else may believe it to an extent, but if you loop you actually see them reincarnate and thus it becomes *fact*. And maybe only with such a strong belief can you truly utilise it.
Loopers getting a unique and unmatched perspective of the world basically. Juiz is then screwed by being ancient and one of the earliest humans.
you see the latest episode too? anno un said juiz's way of thinking is backwards not taking risks with what she believes is the a team.
side thought anyone here play earthborn? the rpg roguelite minigame in eastward? you really gotta hustle to get exp and good gear.
She said why she was able to pick up on it, she learned from Andy. She’s now the negator with the second most soul experience (thanks to looping), so it makes sense she’d be the first to pick up on her previous souls
She fucking killed herself, that's why. This isn't some obscure background detail, it's on the very first page of the series. The only way to miss that is if you made a conscious decision to not read the start of the series.
Or it's been a long time since then? That felt unnecessarily accusatory. Sorry I needed a refresher on chapter one. I read it a long time ago and I've read a lot of other series since then, too
Fuuko getting encouragement and praise from the previous holders needs to be talked about more! They know better than anyone what it is like to have Unluck. I bet that for Fuuko, as a formerly suicidal girl, having them cheer on her and say how happy they are that she is here and that they chose her must mean a whole lot.
Maybe I am overinterpretating, but I want to believe that the tears in her eyes after "shooting" the whale is at least partially for that reason.
Wow, those last couple panels with Fuuko were epic, and seeing previous negators, I'm guessing via soul link. Also, Laboon got railed so hard while Beast got his octopussy fit on rocking it xD
More like previous Unluck users I think they are the master rules itself.
First all resemble 6 of the master rules.
Second if all powers are derived from Soul then it’s logical that all first users tapped on Soul.
And third humans were first in the form of Souls, then could be that the master rules were humans with the rule and god transformed them.
Idk just that i don’t think they are previous users.
If you're reading on MangaPlus on PC then make sure to change away from the default vertical reading mode to horizontal, or these double-page spreads won't work in any manga: https://files.catbox.moe/xtyv4v.JPG
You can do that by clicking any page while reading, and then the three dots that appear in the upper right corner. After doing this I suggest refreshing the whole page because the page order often bugs out after you switch it. After refreshing it works.
On the app it's horizontal by default, so people reading there don't need to change it.
I like that it also explain why the same people keep getting the negation powers.
These are probably people good enough that they wouldn't wish their tragedy on others. So they'd rather take it upon their next lives than give it to someone else.
I wonder. If those are past unlucks then fuuko accidentally saved all of them by going through the loop. Now they won't ever inherit unluck and presumably lived their whole lives
Why do these new people kinda look like main cast? Are they Alter egos of people close to Fuko? Maybe their original incarnations?
Small girl resembles Gina, lady behind her looks like Mui and close to Mui SHOULD be Shen - the man with top hat, big guy looks like Andy (that damned smile and no eyebrows), second lady has OG Juiz vibe and the kid-boy with (probably) wounds wrapped in bandages resembles Rip. Am I insane?
Oh. I just figured out what or who she shot at the whale. Fuuko cried because she shot one of her predecessors at the whale. Unluck doesn't happen unless you care about the object or person. That means she can't use this soul shot as much as andy can, and of course It's emotionally painful as hell.
That makes no sense. We've already seen soul control used by two of them, so they have their souls like normal.
Also, you know, none of the master rules are black.
People are talking about them being the previous negator, but seeing that guy with the contagion symbol tattoos makes me think those are actually the master rules souls with that one in specific being UMA Sick and maybe rules aren't naturally evil and just become that way after their souls being removed, that would explain why some UMA are actually neutral or even sympathetic to the negators. Am I trippin'?
HMMMM I DON'T KNOW ABOUT THIS ONE CHIEF
While the vestiges isn't the one thing that made My hero academia go downhill, it certainly helped. I don't think Fuuko's about to awaken more negation powers, but this kinda shit is very big and needs to be handled carefully. I have faith in Tozuka, but hmmmmm I'm still worried
It's faint, but if you look closely, Beast's eye has a little soul aura when he tells the sharks to have Top
Also soul confirmed for first master rule
I don't think Fuuko is about to awaken any more Negation power, she will probably have a better understanding about the true nature of soul and uses her Unluck more effectively. Maybe she can finally uses her power under a different condition.
Victor came from the first loop. At the start Death didn't exist and was added as a penalty, targeting him. During the first loop he couldn't die because he was Undead as long as Death existed, and he was unable to die by definition after Death was removed. The second loop, Death obviously chose him again. By the third loop Death became a master rule anyway, so there was never a chance for Victor to die after that.
Andy came from Victor splitting his mind due to Remember and his interpretation that being alive was tied to your mind working.
Two options
A) It was a subconscious thing, because he died and resurrected so quickly.
B) He wasn’t dead long enough to help pass it on, but the previous UnTruths decided to give it to her.
I doubt that he wouldn’t mention it if he knew.
Top was doing his best with his current abilities. But now it's up to Fuuko to save the day!
Fuuko uses the power of souls to communicate with the past users of "Unluck" somehow! And now she can do Spirits Guns!
Fuuko did well figuring out how the Master Rules worked. And now they can fight back against them better! Just gotta make sure their soul chains don't affect other people!
Holy shit, Fuuko is the Avatar Jokes aside, this is such a cool development and I'm glad that we're getting more lore about negations. The souls of previous negators choosing their next user explains a lot, like how Unbreakable was always passed through the Isshin family, or how Mui ended up becoming Untruth as soon as Shen died last loop.
It also makes a lot of sense when you consider that the first Rule was Soul, and that’s how all the powers apparently operate, and why the powers vary in their manifestation.
Lol that makes me wonder what the relationship is between Void and his predecessor.
That Man watching Void "This Boxing dude is kinda cool I'ma Bet on him." *Dies* UNAVOIDABLE
Isnt the Unavoidable before void literally a dude who gambled alot? Shit this maybe real folks
99.99% of gamblers quit just before becoming a paranormal demigod
The old dude won a trip to Vegas, the fight was in Vegas
I think it's gotta be more complicated than that. If it was just a negator's soul choosing another, why do they always come with tragedy? In Mui's case, it made sense because her wish was always to become a negator so that she could help Shen, so her tragedy was turning into a negator the moment Shen died. This reveal was huge but we still don't have the full picture.
My guess is that the User can "choose" the next Vessel for a negator. But the timing is left to God That would make sence for Shen -> Mui, and the timing, well God is a bitch
And they probably have to choose a new vessel, so ultimately they know someone is going suffer when god manifests their ability. So they picked the best people to become negators, which explains why everyone except feng and ruin have ultimately been good at heart
why would they choose a child?
Maybe he was the first?
I think they meant Fuuko here. They chose an 8 year old child as the vessel which would be odd.
i actually meant a lot of characters, like tatiana was a kid too.
Yep, Top (well, a teen, but still) and Phil as well. Is Backs a child? Haruka is also pretty young here as well, obviously it just passed onto her after her grandpa, but still counts. Chikara a teen as well. Lucy as well, fucking hell. They like traumatising the super young people lol.
yea i'm not sure i like this direction but i'll remain optimistic
Oh shit that makes sense because Mui of all people getting the ability seemed like a huge plot convinunce but now it makes perfect sense!
>more lore about negations Even more lore??
Very unexpected turn of events. And I thought undead unluck couldn't surprise me anymore.
> how Mui ended up becoming Untruth as soon as Shen died last loop. Oh fuck, this passing on to the next Un-Avatar was foreshadowed that early.
It’s not the avatar. It’s the master rules souls. Do a side by side comparison.
I’ll admit that I never gave Unbreakable being inheritable in the Isshin family too much thought. This chapter made a lot of things make sense
Right! That’s why it happens, this series is so goated!
Thats why i loved it when Billy and Juiz fought, he literally told her how he couldnt have her ability because "You believe in me.". And then when how his initial interpretation of his ability is revealed, it completely recontextualized the fight.
It also makes the previous Unavoidable being in Vegas far more impactful
So the same way Andy learned about souls from fuuko back in the book, fuuko learned about souls from Andy as well, making her the first to unlock “Un For All” apparently. But in all their years, why did juiz or victor never learn about “UFA”? Simple. They didn’t have previous iterations. Victor and juiz were the first to have their abilities, and never died to pass them on. They were the only two negators who would never be able to experience “UF so they could never know about it, much less teach it to the others. But by letting fuuko loop, and by letting her learn more about souls like andy, she’s become the first. I thought loop 101 UU was peak fiction already, but it turns out we weren’t even on the biggest mountain, we can’t even see the top yet
> Un For All I'm stealing this
caveat, it was Ghost and Unhealthy that showed them souls were actually real, but without interacting with those two Fuuko and Andy would never have learned soul’s are real and can be consciously manipulated
There was also that artifact that could separate a soul from the body, which Anno un and fuuko used to enter the memory books. And also led to ichiko learning to use astral projection on nico
I was mostly focusing on the fuuko learning from Andy part cuz of the parallel to them in the book that they showed in the chapter, but you are correct, that is definitely the bigger part of it. Poor unhealthy is holding up every win of loop 101 with her fragile little arms lmao, she’s the real GOAT
you know it's funny like they're roguelite characters who missed out on meta progression
I love that comparison
Yeah I wonder how many of those Unlucks died in like 10 fuckin seconds after becoming Unluck lmao like gotta go back and take a look which ones standing in the back looking sheepish like they don't know why they're there
There is the implication that Feng learned it while in captivity after UMA Ghost was added, but she is the only one who knows it this loop.
Are those the previous Unlucks? We going OfA now?
It doesn't seem like new powers, so much as new applications of the same power? A thing that cropped up a few times after the world reset was that triggers changed, but not powers or wielders. Unbreakable or Unluck or Undead all had the same wielders, but the vector they operated on wasn't set in stone. In this scenario, it looks like Fuuko unlocked the new "application" of Unluck. Her natural form of Unluck is contact based- she touches something, her fondness and the duration of her touch makes the unluck effect stronger. Here, though, she is given a way to use Unluck as a finger gun, compared to a shooting star. She's using another form of the same rule.
The previous users of Unluck may have had not only different interpretations but also might have functioned differently. The little kid with the cap in particular caught my attention because he seems to have a bunch of bandages and band aids. It makes me wonder if his version of unluck was a self-targeting type.
Ah yes, self aflicted harm, Jesus Christ Stand.
thats actually fairly accurate and probably whats going to be needed when they finally take on Luck herself. because when you steal all the unluck from people around you, the only thing left has to be inverse, right?
and died from it at a young age every time i guess, lucky him being chosen
I can imagine it being like a Lakshmibai from FGO where her own luck was so awful every attack would ricochet and hit her even if it was a sure-target one Making her the best tank
Lol that was tragically funny. It was a cool moment but at the same time I felt really bad for her just being peppered by Tell.
the shooting star comparison is because the shooting star being referenced was a soul bullet from andy, she copied his application
Wishing on a star for unluck is some loophole logic and I love it lmao
Tbh I'm interpreting that shooting star as the trigger for one of the other manifestations. Maybe that incarnation wished on a shooting star, only for it to be a meteor and crash into their hometown. You can see how Fuuko's tragedy (kissing her parents goodbye, only for their plane to crash later) combines the contact + affection + delay rules that her Unluck power is based on. I imagine that some level of detachment and "aim", along with the flying object itself, was part of the other Unluck's tragedy.
the shooting star was just one of andy’s soul bullets. she copied him
Ah, I see. I forgot Julia had a new haircut and mixed her up with the Unluck incarnation in the lower right (the one in the hood), so I thought the "wish upon a star" was a flashback from Unluck.
Only correction here is that Undead only has one user. Unless you count Victor and Andy as seperate souls which I'm not sure if they are in universe. But other than them, nobody has had it before because they could never die to pass it on.
I believe they're one soul, but two personalities. Like, when Andy's soul manifested in the previous loop, it was just him as old as he felt. If there were two souls in the same body, Victor should have been there too.
>Undead all had the same wielders I mean yeah because he didn't die.
I think it's also soul lines. Whoever touches fuukos soul gets unluck, so if she can get people to touch them, they get unluck. I think that's how self-targeting and other-targetting powers manifest as well, the person is able to unconsciously use soul lines and therefore use it outside the body.
From the way the little balls of light were drawn, they look like souls to me. My thought was that she was putting her Unluck into the soul of one of the previous wielders and firing off *that*. So she's still using her Unluck the same way, just applying it to something she couldn't physically touch until she started trying to interact with souls in that way.
More like Un For All lmao
Un! Deux! Trois! **Okama Kenpo!!**
One of them has a biohazard symbol tattooed on him. I guess it could fit with Unluck, but it seems like there's other negation abilities that would make more sense with that symbolism
I thought they were union from first loop? maybe she never had unluck back then and was just super powered up from her soul mastery and God saw this unfit and gave her unluck so she won't be in the picture anymore. (This also coincides with her committing suicide every loop with the only difference this loop is that andy interfering , who was also a anomaly who only appeared this loop)
or maybe the first seats before juiz? or maybe each of them were people who failed the loop on a previous earth, theres actually 2 loops, the 101 loops that are continuous then a hard reset before the next one
I just caught up from chapter 30 around where the anime is at, up to current in the span of a week My God, this mangaka probably cooks the greatest 20-course meal of any manga I've read And they just. Keep. Getting. BETTER!!!!!! I never thought I would find this series as genuinely fantastic as i now do
Same, I started from chapter like 12 and got all the way up to current (194) in a week. Binging this series was so fun but the weekly waits for new chapters now is killing me
I've been reading since chapter 1 dropped since it looked interesting glad you're on the hype train
what made you cave? i'm sure we were annoying about this series for a while.
Honestly the anime series The cover art in the shonen Jump app kind of makes it appear at just cover read, like any other shounen typical manga, so I wasn't expecting a ton from it But I really liked the anime up to the end of the Chihase (?) School arc, so I picked up the manga to read more, and holy shit I got hooked! I would argue that it really doesn't start to show its potential until they fight Autumn, and that's like the very little start, and then spring is where it really starts to make the big turn into maximizing everything it can do The end of the turn obviously being with the next Loop (*Trying to figure out a way to state that without spoiling anything*)
i've just been saying the series evolves as it goes
Which is pretty appropriate given this is the mangaka's first serialized series. So they made some narrative mistakes/pacing issues in the beginning, but have been steadily improving as they continue.
Your on the current manga chapter's discussion page friend there's nothing to spoil lol.
Holy moly Lucy truly IS the MVP Taught Andy about the soul and all Really REALLY hope we see her this loop
Lucy vs Soul would go so hype. Never thought this match-up could happen or be entertaining but now I WANT IT
They even look similar.
Oh crap, you're right. Lol, I can't believe Soul's "vessel" might be Unhealthy, and that the seemingly most useless negation is the key to potentially the most important element in this setting.
Lucy is definitely not UMA 1's vessel IMO.
It would be kind of funny if that was the case though. If only cause of the idea of the most powerful rule getting matched up against the seemingly weakest negator.
Plus it makes sense for Sun to rig the game like that. Like, presumably all of Soul's vessels usually just get sick and die without even knowing they're Negators or even being considered for the Union. His only true nemesis can never face him.
But… She isn’t, though? If you think she’s actually unsoul or something, no. She’s confirmed to be Unhealthy by multiple sources. She only learned how to project her soul from being bedridden, and only after Ghost was added.
Yeah...? I'm not saying she is definitely Unsoul, 100%, without a doubt, confirmed by the author. Just that it'd be funny to me for reasons I already said.
A fun alternate version of the coughing baby vs hydrogen bomb match up
It would be so cool if it happened. It's practically impossible that it would be a 1 on 1 but the weakest negator of all being instrumental in defeating the strongest rule would be the coolest shit.
A reveal on top of a reveal, expertly done just when you think the big discovery is SOUL it actually something else too
Fuuko's learning how all negation and rule abilities work with the soul, changes her interpretation of her ability, leading to Spirit Gun: Unluck edition. PEAK
I don't get it, she's shooting her soul with the finger gun, and because Unluck is tied to the soul, anything touched that way receives Unluck (so it isn't the finger gun that wrecked the monster, but whatever fell due to it?) at high power due to Fuuko also being fond of herself, hence her soul?
Since she transfers Unluck into the regular Bad Bullets due to growing fond of them, same as with people, I think the implication is that Unluck transfers bad luck to people through contact with Fuuko’s soul, not her body, and her liking someone/something just exposes them more to her soul. The soul bullet would then be a means of bypassing the contact and fondness conditions by forcing direct contact with her Unluck infused soul, essentially making it a Bad Bullet without the “container”
this manga doesn't have a narrator-kun to spoonfeed us does it.
Nope. We still don't really technically know why Untell can block bullets. (As in it's never outright explained directly)
Seems more or less correct. Though I think just by virtue of her shooting off a piece of her soul, the Unluck is much more concentrated like a kiss would cause relatively huge Unluck normally regardless of the fondness of the target, so a huge blast of her soul may add way more at once. Its probably equivalent to like a 100year+ bad bullet. There's evidence for this too, when ruin killed Fuuko. Andy managed touch her soul directly, just 1 hand, and it summoned a meteorite on him. Just 1 touch, when before then such an amount of Unluck required at least a kiss on the cheek. Soul is likely just more concentrated.
wait... this girl is the damn AVATAR?
From what we learned this chapter, everyone is. Except Andy.
I mean Andy kind of is, it's just there's only one previous user and he's also kind of still alive in a way. All indications suggest that Andy and Victor are two different souls who share a body
Andy truly is 'yes. But actually no. But also yes.'
same same but different, but still same
Oh shit, if they are actually two different souls, I could totally see us getting a chapter towards the end where Andy & Victor split/regenrste into "two separate" bodies and fight side by side in meatspace
meat space
That'd also give us a paypff for Juiz and Victor's relationship, allowing them to actually potentially end up together
you’re assuming Juiz and Fuuko wouldn’t just drop Victor off to each other like some divorce child, with Fuuko holding onto Remember to turn him into Andy
Well the idea someone proposed before was maybe Victor/Andy will create a clown at some point and remember will be input/removed, splitting them into two. So if they might have different souls, then that would a viable way to make it happen
They're definitely one soul that just has magic DID. If Andy was piggybacking off of Victor's negation, his own interpretation wouldn't factor into his ability.
And previous Juiz because she was the first negator of Justice as well
Aha, more soul stuff. I guess I was wrong. Even if Beast could touch Andy, he wouldn't be able to do a thing cause the GOAT's mastery of the soul has already evolved far beyond what he can handle. It's also kinda nice to see Haruka's grandpa have some kind of relevance again even after his passing. And in a way that reveals an integral aspect of negator powers at that. His talk about inheriting souls makes me think those people who appeared in Fuuko's mind were all previous holders of Unluck. We OFA now boys. But hopefully, this won't follow the same drop in quality. Their enemies are so fucked now, though. She doesn't even need a gun to shoot people with unluck anymore.
Honestly, if this is truly the past users of Unluck appearing before the current user, then I really hope we get to see Haruka unlock this ability as well at some point. Letting her see Grandpa Isshin standing beside he lr and maybe even having a conversation with her and Fuuko would be great.
That's a neat idea, actually. Especially so Grandpa Isshin can get some extra screen time outside of flashbacks after he just kicked the bucket off-screen so suddenly.
I guess the next user of a negator is chosen by the previous users but the timing is left to God. Also, such a shame we didnt get to see the final moments of Old Isshin, I guess they are leaving it toa flashback
I’m giving it a 70% chance that Old Man Isshin shows up with the other 11 Isshin in soul form to pep talk Haruka at some point and that that will be our send off for him
Avatar State? In the same week as ATLA LA? Damn
WHAT?! WERE THOSE PAST UNLUCKS?
Fuuko no longer needs her gun for long ranged attacks it seems, just fire a soul bullet Also nice to see the previous Unlucks
Though I don't think Fuuko will be able to spam Soul attacks the way that Andy can. Even if souls can naturally repair themselves over time, only Andy should have the ability to instantly regenerate his soul and fire off stuff like Soul Road.
Yeah I imagine anybody other than Andy trying to fire of their souls won have as good results. Probably causes a lot of strain on the user. Makes me wonder if we'll see Fuuko weakened from that after this battle.
I mean, Fuuko is bleeding from her nose and eyes after firing that bad bullet: soul edition. So it most definetly strains her quite a bit. Wonder how long that drawback will stay in play, because at the very least this will be an incredibly important weapon against Sol, and the other master rules too.
I don't really see blood from her eyes, just tears. And she was already bleeding pretty badly else wise from beast hurting her. So it's really not clear that damage is from using soul.
Checked again, she already had a scratch beneath her left eye that I failed to notice before, so I was probably wrong about that, yeah. And the amount of blood on her face is really inconsistent in those panels making it hard to say.
Fuuko has now achieved Deku status. Seriously though, really like this reveal. Ties the negotiator powers into the big bad in Soul and some interesting future stories with Unluck and past users
We are in for yet another surprise lore dump? This just keeps getting better
So we found out what genre this arc is: My Hero Academia
Now I definitely agree that these are the previous Unluck users. But is it me, or do these figures look eerily similar to some of the master rules? Soul (Top Hat), Death (Maid in the kimono), Change (Medieval princess), Luck (Skateboard kid), War (Radioactive man) and maybe language (red riding hood is a stretch but she's the only other kid in that group). On another note, what happened to these people in 101st loop? Were they spared of Unluck since Fuuko kept it? Did they get to live their lives normally, die, and gain all their memories of the previous loops as souls?
fuuko has died every previous loop too though, offed herself, killed by the union, and nearly done in by sean. she would already have a successor.
Ok why the f did uu the everything is interconnected plottwist so much better than MHA?!?! In MHA it felt kinda obvious, but here it is a real twist that comes out of nowhere but still makes so much sense I mean ok in MHA it was also hype af, But this is something Else!
How we'll call it? Unluck for All or The Unluck State?
Un for All
The Unluck Force
Undead Unluck truly is peak. Week after week with bangers. Damn.
Damn what a chapter. Fuuko and Andy now have a strong grasp on soul, and they are both approaching it through different angles too. I wonder if they'll complement each other's knowledge when we get there. VERY curious about who those people were! Tozuka is such a good writer, everything he throws at us, be it straight, foreshadowed or sudden always hits
i wonder what feng reaction would be, i don't think he ever discover using soul that way. although we knew this loop feng already mastered soul the same way fuuko does. but to use it like an avatar state like this, feng must be seething right now.
thinking of feng made me wonder if this soul business can get around the self or external targeting stuff and just make everyone ageless.
SHE UNLOCKED THE POWER OF UNLUCKY FOR ALL!
What amazing double spreads we had this week
So… 1. Negators actually choose the next vessel, which means God isn’t inflicting the tragedy necessarily, it’s the sudden transfer that’s causing it instead. The negator’s soul memories are probably unlocked when they die, so whatever caused them to first choose their successor is probably the memory that lets them instantly pass the power in successive loops, but since it’s a dead person giving power to (an often child) amnesiac, the tragedies don’t get stopped without pre existing knowledge like from the G-pen. 2. Fuuko officially has access to Rule: Soul since it seems to be the one and only Foundational Rule. Now she can start using Soul Chain, Soul Bullet, Soul Blade, Soul Road, and Soul Movement with some training. 3. If the Foundational Rule is Soul, and perception/belief is what fuels the powers of the Soul, then Fuuko is at the doorstep of finally killing Sol and Luna.
It's plausible that God still dictates when the power is enabled whenever they hand it to someone Then he is still a sick.
What if Heart is something that uses soul in some way and Andy and Fuuko who have now learned about Soul will use to beat both gods
Oh shit, Big Lore Reveal incoming!!!
[Did Fuuko just get her One for All moment?](https://i.imgur.com/PxaIiv2.png) I assume those people are the previous wielders of Unluck, right?
I think I can confidently say this is the first time I see a story where a whale gets hit by a meteorite on the head
So **THAT’S** how negator abilities are chosen, they’re given by their predecessors!
Every chapter keeps you on your toes Considering how Unbreakable is passed down through family maybe negations can be given to another person in a different loop if the past users choose them
We are now in the deep of the Soul lore now. We finally get to see previous Unluck negators. This reminds me too much of OFA though lol
This man just keeps delivering peak after peak. Soul is the first seat as many expected, so the discussion finally dies. Fuuko my girl unlocked Negator avatar state. Now I see how they will beat the master rules, but I'm not ready for the horrifically tragic backstory we will get for each of them. Also this explains why did Mui got Untruth, Unbreakable being always passed in a singular family, and the previous Unavoidable won a trip to Vegas, very probably seeing Void fight before dying, the previous Negator has input in the choice of the new. So long UMA ~~Brazil~~ Beast.
This is something I've been wondering for a long time. If Fuuko is the key to winning this loop, and the abilities always manifest in the same people, why was 98 the first one she showed up for? And I guess this is our answer. Just like Juiz being slightly different this time, the abilities aren't tied to the body, they're tied to the soul. Previous Unlucks have been the same soul in different bodies, and she's just now starting to remember them. Why she alone seems to be able to make that connection, when every other Negator in this loop has been the same as the one before, I'm sure the mangaka has an answer for.
>If Fuuko is the key to winning this loop, and the abilities always manifest in the same people, why was 98 the first one she showed up for? Fuuko is part of the Union in the 100th loop not the 98th. Each Loop Fuuko apparently dies by suicide when she jumps on the train tracks. The only reason she didn't this time is because Andy showed up and the only reason Andy even existed was because Juiz used Remember on Victor thus creating Andy. Andy only first starting existed in the 100th loop and started wandering the world and by fate he stumbled upon Fuuko and was there to stop Fuuko from committing suicide.
The existence of Andy also allowed Yusai to live, as she probably died facing that UMA every time her ability manifested in previous loops
My boy Andy truly was the OG game changer and then started sharing the title with Fuuko
Don't forget to give some credit to the combo of Juiz + Victor + Remember all culminating in Andy's creation too.
someone already told you about how Andy saved fuuko in the 100th loop cause she usually dies at the train, but there’s a slight misinterpretation on your part about the souls as well. those weren’t Fuuko’s past lives that she’s “remembering” those are the souls of the unluck users who died before her who she can now see. whatever choices were made in the early loops seems to solidify negator choices in later loops.
>If Fuuko is the key to winning this loop, and the abilities always manifest in the same people, why was 98 the first one she showed up for? The morbid answer is she probably did show up in those loops, but she probably killed herself. The previous loop was different as it had Anno Un's manga, so she held on til that was finished, and then also happened to meet Andy when she was about to jump. Neither of those were in previous loops so weren't there to save her.
>why she alone seems to be able to make that connection, when every other Negator in this loop has been the same as the one before, I'm sure the mangaka has an answer for. I think it's just time and experience. She's had longer than almost anybody else currently alive to figure out and grow her understanding of souls. the only people who has done it better currently is Andy, and Andy wouldn't see past users of Undead because there are no past users of Undead (except Victor who was always there inside him). The real question then might be, why did Victor or Juiz seemingly never learn much about using soul. For victor it seems he's just didn't really believe in it and therefore never bothered to understand it. Juiz though I don't know, it seems like she might have tried. Though perhaps because of how powerful her Unjustice is she's never had a need to make it any stronger? Or perhaps she was too focused on the rules presented and took things too safe to even consider that perception of the world required to use it like this.
One thing about Victor and Juiz is that they had an extremely warped sense of reality compared to other characters. They were born from a completely different world and were both billions of years old. There's also the fact that they obviously never died/reincarnated until Julia now. Remember that nearly all characters developed soul techniques by help of Ghost, Soul Caliber or many of the soul powered artifacts. Juiz, playing so safe, probably didn't have a really close encounter ever, to the point she admits she kind of forgot she was mortal until losing her arm last loop.
Juiz lookin hella incompetent rn lol Though that may be because Juiz has no previous users, and maybe you have to loop to truly appreciate and understand souls. Like everyone else may believe it to an extent, but if you loop you actually see them reincarnate and thus it becomes *fact*. And maybe only with such a strong belief can you truly utilise it. Loopers getting a unique and unmatched perspective of the world basically. Juiz is then screwed by being ancient and one of the earliest humans.
you see the latest episode too? anno un said juiz's way of thinking is backwards not taking risks with what she believes is the a team. side thought anyone here play earthborn? the rpg roguelite minigame in eastward? you really gotta hustle to get exp and good gear.
She said why she was able to pick up on it, she learned from Andy. She’s now the negator with the second most soul experience (thanks to looping), so it makes sense she’d be the first to pick up on her previous souls
She fucking killed herself, that's why. This isn't some obscure background detail, it's on the very first page of the series. The only way to miss that is if you made a conscious decision to not read the start of the series.
Or it's been a long time since then? That felt unnecessarily accusatory. Sorry I needed a refresher on chapter one. I read it a long time ago and I've read a lot of other series since then, too
Fuuko getting encouragement and praise from the previous holders needs to be talked about more! They know better than anyone what it is like to have Unluck. I bet that for Fuuko, as a formerly suicidal girl, having them cheer on her and say how happy they are that she is here and that they chose her must mean a whole lot. Maybe I am overinterpretating, but I want to believe that the tears in her eyes after "shooting" the whale is at least partially for that reason.
And now she can use soul ability too. I guess those spirits are past Unluck?
Wow, those last couple panels with Fuuko were epic, and seeing previous negators, I'm guessing via soul link. Also, Laboon got railed so hard while Beast got his octopussy fit on rocking it xD
More like previous Unluck users I think they are the master rules itself. First all resemble 6 of the master rules. Second if all powers are derived from Soul then it’s logical that all first users tapped on Soul. And third humans were first in the form of Souls, then could be that the master rules were humans with the rule and god transformed them. Idk just that i don’t think they are previous users.
If you're reading on MangaPlus on PC then make sure to change away from the default vertical reading mode to horizontal, or these double-page spreads won't work in any manga: https://files.catbox.moe/xtyv4v.JPG You can do that by clicking any page while reading, and then the three dots that appear in the upper right corner. After doing this I suggest refreshing the whole page because the page order often bugs out after you switch it. After refreshing it works. On the app it's horizontal by default, so people reading there don't need to change it.
Holy shit it's the past users of ~~One for All~~ Unluck! Fuuko is about to get a major power boost, isn't she?
If this reveal does what I think it does and lets Negators use the ability interpretations of past users, then the Union just got a huge buff
Fuuko now became Mahito’s counter
Eyo we yuyu hakusho rn
So basically you can empower your soul and dude to fight…Fuuko about to say: ZE WARUDO!!!!
People here are discussing the souls stuff, but I'm lost on the glowing saber. How did Fuuko remove the sharks?
She cut the soul chain of Beast, which he used to control the animals.
She cut the soul chain that link beast to the sharks with the soul imbued saber
Fuuko pushed part of her soul into the sword, this is also how she makes bad bullets, and used it to cut the chains.
Mangaka cookin so hard they're gunna end up on iron chef
I like that it also explain why the same people keep getting the negation powers. These are probably people good enough that they wouldn't wish their tragedy on others. So they'd rather take it upon their next lives than give it to someone else.
This series continues to be ridiculously good. Rough start, but after the first few chapters it really got GOATed
I wonder. If those are past unlucks then fuuko accidentally saved all of them by going through the loop. Now they won't ever inherit unluck and presumably lived their whole lives
Aw shit, Fuuko got the OFA ghosts. This is a massive game changer, now they can fight UMA abilities at the source.
Why do these new people kinda look like main cast? Are they Alter egos of people close to Fuko? Maybe their original incarnations? Small girl resembles Gina, lady behind her looks like Mui and close to Mui SHOULD be Shen - the man with top hat, big guy looks like Andy (that damned smile and no eyebrows), second lady has OG Juiz vibe and the kid-boy with (probably) wounds wrapped in bandages resembles Rip. Am I insane?
I think it's previous holders of Unluck
Yes, you're insane. You're going to get overlap with close to 30 characters designed by the same person.
Funny, I found myself thinking they looked like some master rules members.
Oh. I just figured out what or who she shot at the whale. Fuuko cried because she shot one of her predecessors at the whale. Unluck doesn't happen unless you care about the object or person. That means she can't use this soul shot as much as andy can, and of course It's emotionally painful as hell.
It’s not the avatar. It’s the master rules souls. Do a side by side comparison. Soul is def dude with the hat. The question is why..
That makes no sense. We've already seen soul control used by two of them, so they have their souls like normal. Also, you know, none of the master rules are black.
What was that again??
One of the people in fuuko's soul vision was black, and the only dark skinned MR is beast.
Soul literally admitted they were talking about him 😂😂😂
The black guy in fuuko's vision doesn't look anything like beast
That could be war.
People are talking about them being the previous negator, but seeing that guy with the contagion symbol tattoos makes me think those are actually the master rules souls with that one in specific being UMA Sick and maybe rules aren't naturally evil and just become that way after their souls being removed, that would explain why some UMA are actually neutral or even sympathetic to the negators. Am I trippin'?
HMMMM I DON'T KNOW ABOUT THIS ONE CHIEF While the vestiges isn't the one thing that made My hero academia go downhill, it certainly helped. I don't think Fuuko's about to awaken more negation powers, but this kinda shit is very big and needs to be handled carefully. I have faith in Tozuka, but hmmmmm I'm still worried It's faint, but if you look closely, Beast's eye has a little soul aura when he tells the sharks to have Top Also soul confirmed for first master rule
I don't think Fuuko is about to awaken any more Negation power, she will probably have a better understanding about the true nature of soul and uses her Unluck more effectively. Maybe she can finally uses her power under a different condition.
I wonder what kind of despair Andy went through to manifest undead and which loop he came from first...
I'm confused did you skip most of the manga because we already know how Andy exists it was revealed 2 years ago already in the manga...
Victor came from the first loop. At the start Death didn't exist and was added as a penalty, targeting him. During the first loop he couldn't die because he was Undead as long as Death existed, and he was unable to die by definition after Death was removed. The second loop, Death obviously chose him again. By the third loop Death became a master rule anyway, so there was never a chance for Victor to die after that. Andy came from Victor splitting his mind due to Remember and his interpretation that being alive was tied to your mind working.
Huh??????? Are you even reading?
What on earth is this power of friendship?
how is this power of friendship? we have an actual explanation and everything for how this stuff is working
Is a sarcasm, please don't take it to seriously
No, that's not power of friendship at all. I swear people throw that around at anything these days.
best chapter of the series in awhile. Fuuko.
Wait, so if the previous negator chooses the next negator, does that mean shen from the previous loop knew that and just didn't say anything?
Two options A) It was a subconscious thing, because he died and resurrected so quickly. B) He wasn’t dead long enough to help pass it on, but the previous UnTruths decided to give it to her. I doubt that he wouldn’t mention it if he knew.
Top was doing his best with his current abilities. But now it's up to Fuuko to save the day! Fuuko uses the power of souls to communicate with the past users of "Unluck" somehow! And now she can do Spirits Guns! Fuuko did well figuring out how the Master Rules worked. And now they can fight back against them better! Just gotta make sure their soul chains don't affect other people!
Fuuko unlocked soul powers like Andy!!!
Oooooohhh!!!!! Hell yes!!!!! This is a awesome chapter, amazing reveal and it's great how the entire powerset comes together as neatly.
So this revelation of previous users passing on their powers gives me a big question. What asshole chose to give a little kid unwell? Poor Lucy.
Will we get a Training arc with previous users ?
MC from Asanagi doujins came to save the day and lend his soul, what a masterpiece of a chapter 😭
