So what does 119 teach us?


/small spoiler space/






-All those games where going out with an idol raises your Charm/Popularity stat? THEY FUCKING LIE.

-To no one's surprise, Chihiro and Ayumi ping as strong candidates. I've always been fond of Ayumi anyway, so good for her.

-If it wasn't for the whole getting stepped on bit, I would envy Keima's vantage point in the last panel. So, so much.

So much.

Come on.

I'm pulling for you Ayumi!

Here's hoping it will be teacher girl, ramen girl, and swimmer girl too.

Chess girl would be funny tho' because it makes the chess conflict into sibling rivalry.

Edit: Karate girl will probably be Mars tho'. Unless its a Tsundere.

If it wasn't for the whole getting stepped on bit, I would envy Keima's vantage point in the last panel. So, so much.

Unfortunately her foot is on his eyes so he doesn't even have that.

Since ones who show feelings are the target now that means the whole band minus Drumer Ojou are suspect, though I'm guessing Keima has already figured that out. Moon girl showed obvious signs of remembering afterwards though hasn't shown up again. The older sister gave him a kiss. And Drummer Ojou dressed as a man. Hell the only ones that can be counted off that list are the ghost girl who still shows up in group pics (highlighted no less) and reluctantly the teacher who didn't show up after her conquest to tell if she remembered anything. Though if it does turn out to be like a game like usualy turns out to be much to everyones suprise than 4 of the sisters will be found then the sequal or second ark will turn the rest into either equal or higher goddess, children of old gods, or some kind of other magical girl.

New chapter, two people not goddesses.

 

[~NGD OMEGA~]

I think I'm starting to understand Keima's assumption about the Goddesses, and why he's so sure it has to have been girl's he's conquered. He's assuming that like Dianna the goddesses went for someone nearby at the time of release that an escaped spirit also went for, so it had to have been those in the town at the time of a certain age. So people who weren't there or might have been too young would be exempt.

Maybe. Though that's the most reasonable guess I can figure.

 

[Akujiki]

The assistant teacher wasn't one. Alas. How disappointing.

 

[shiki]

Dang, Longshot choice numero 1 and 2 have been shot down. All the longshots that I was pulling for have been shot down except ramen and chess girl.

I will be disappointed if it goes the library girl route.

 

[Master of Squirrel-Fu]

Same for Minami . At least theres still a chance for moon girl.

 

[Masterly]

Personally I'm pulling for Shiori and Ayumi.

 

[Franchise]

I'm hoping for Shori and Tsukiyo but at this point I'll be very shocked if Ayumi does not end up having one. Still with Keima's theory on the goddesses (which seems to be be based around age given who he tested it on) the chances of the goddesses being in his classmates is higher now.

That's a lie, it so is.

Whoever wanted Tsukiyo must be happy.

If we assume there's two on each row then Shiori is the one without a goddess.

 

[Franchise]

Wow, chapter is out early this week.

Well assuming Keima deductions are right, which so far seem tp be spot on, anyone left in the list now as an 80% chance of having a goddess. Anyone now want to start placing bets on the odd girl out?

 

[cilrais]

I'm pretty sure between Ayumi and Chihiro one of them is not a goddess

 

[Watashiwa]

Tsukiyo and Shiori. Both of them had signs of remembering whereas Yui has not.

 

[~NGD OMEGA~]

Shiori was apparently writing a book about what had happened having vague memories of it, so I have to say if she doesn't have one that'd be pretty misleading. Once the Godesses regain a little bit of power the memories apparently start coming back little by little, so she was showing clear signs of that happening right there.

If I have to put money on who doesn't have one, it'd probably be Yui or Chihiro (As it'd be unusual if the band group all had one, though then again maybe it'd make sense). Maybe Tsukiko too, but I have my doubts. Then again I also thought Mio was a sure thing given her ending so... >>

Somehow this reveal was more impressive than expected though, and showed a far better genre savvy bent than even I attempted. Particularly the subtle affirmation between the scenes there. Nice touch indeed. And Keima's pulling off the kiddie gloves now, so this should be entertaining.

 

[wingthesword]

I'm betting it's Shiori who's the odd girl out because of what I said earlier about two girls per row and I want to see the 2B Pencils be band of Goddess possessed girls who are all interested in Keima.*

*Elsie doesn't count she's more like that one guy in Charlie's Angels who was important only because he contacted Charlie. Elsie is only important because she is the link to Keima.

 

[~NGD OMEGA~]

Isn't there another chick in their group who wasn't a capture? The one who not a while back pretty much said Keima's never going to get married, leading the other three to have an usual reaction. That's why I'm not too sure of the assumption. Where I'm standing though Shiori's probably the most likely to be one though, given the thing about her writing the book, though who the hell knows at this point.

 

[Herdo]

Pretty interesting chapter this week. The next one will be very interesting.

I guess Yui will be the one without a Goddess. In my opinion Keima should have noticed something like that when he was in Yui's body, and I have a feeling that level 4s would have much more trouble than it had to come out of a body where a Goddess rests, as she should be able to at least suppress it (like Diana did).

Tsukiyo is most likely one, due to her very odd behaviour after the capture (telescope gazing at Keima while blushing), and Shiori is another strong one due to her story writing and her quote after the capture:

But... I got something in that dream.... No mistake... I got something...

From chapter 16, p19. Which hints that she got a Goddess, just like Kanon hinted that she had one when she glowed so brightly that she looked like a star instead of a idol.

While I wanted to believe that either Ayumi or Chihiro had developed a natural crush on Keima due to their interaction with him after the chapter, it now seems very unlikely.

Also: :wub: Haqua in this chapter. So cute.

 

[Megaolix]

A demon... I'm almost afraid to know what Keima will do next chapter.

 

[wingthesword]

Is it me or are the parallels to Lelouch becoming ....more?

Edit:Actually if you start at the top row with three and decrease one for every row then it's fine.

 

[shiki]

Nooooo! All the interesting long shots! Dang it.

 

[Halcyon7]

Well, since the opposite of a god is a demon, he's going to...do the opposite of capturing them? Drive them all away and make them hate him by picking the wrongest 'paths'?

Or is he just going to use completely immoral tricks even more to make these girls fall in love with him and then discard them?
