Well, I've seen the theory that the only reason Overlord had his moment on Necroworld is because of that mental weapon that makes people feel guilty, which if it's true makes sense why he seemingly relapsed after getting out of range.
ok your posts lead me to actually read rotw and it’s… short?? like the sheer amount of content you’ve put out about megan gaslighted me into thinking she’d spend a few issues being developed as a villain but nope, like three panels of showtime before she’s blasted into robot mode. So congrats on how much you fleshed her out.
YEAH. Yeah it’s like. Legit criminal how little of Megan we actually got, and with such little explanation too.
And it’s sad! Imagine we got more screentime for the main baddies, not just Overlord. Picture: there’s a whole mystery around who this anti-cybertronian campaigner who appeared out of literally nowhere. Then it’s discovered she’s in kahoots with Tarantulas, which raises the alarm for the heroes, then BOOM Overlord reveal! Afterwards there’s more dedication to explaining how and why they teamed up and began the experiment. That would’ve been much better than what was essentially “here’s this ordinary angry lady withJUST KIDDING ITS OVERLORD!”
The problem with Requiem is that it was a single issue, compared to the multi parter wreckers stories before it. So the pacing was bad, the characters were chaotically written, and ofc while Overlord was still one of the highlights, the whole Megan thing was abysmally underdeveloped when it had so much potential for a liar revealed narrative! Not only that but just questions answered for how he got accustomed to human life and how it affected the innocent people around him. But oh well, that’s primarily why FOWAU became a thing 😂
What do you think Subaru being the final villain entails? Is he still with the camps but just refusing to listen, or is he off by himself, ala that feral/homeless Subaru au I've seen? Sorry if this prys too much, I'm just very curious.
How many people do you think are going to be involved in the RBD reveal
Ideally? Everyone. And that’s…that’s kind of my guess anyway.
Because okay: RBD is great as a dramatic reveal for those who love Subaru anyway. But it’s ALSO a REALLY BIG DEAL for anyone who gives half a shit about the integrity of the Royal Selection — or geopolitics in general (Vollachia), because the knight of one of Lugunica’s factions aiming to lead the kingdom is a FUCKING TIME TRAVELER. AND NOBODY NOTICED.
This also leads into my theory that Subaru is gonna be the final villain of the story lol: I have a feeling that final arc is gonna be about everyone banning together to free him of his curse once and for all.
New episode made me think of this

everyones talking about rip midoriya ‘cause he’s dealing with all the family drama, but no. no.
RIP in fucking pieces Manual: The motherfucking Normal Hero who did not sign up for keeping up with the todoroki’s, OR bakugou’s swiss cheesery eureaka moment, OR aizawa’s tis but a scratch leg removal OR midoriya’s double whammy chamber of secrets-esque arm deboning shenanigans and his avatar cycle bending battle with shigaraki. Not to mention last time he was near a UA intern, that kid went to fucking murder someone, and guess what, manual has to deal with him right now too.
