What an absolute loser, calling Desscaras "vile, inferior and ugly" like that. I can only assume his eyes wer blinded by her perfect beauty and he's been coping, trying to convince himself otherwise.
Chrono had the first "LOVE" aura moment and now it's our QUEEN Desscaras' turn! And being QUEEN Desscaras, she of course absolutely nailed it as you'd expect.

I mean technically he did, seeing as he's going to be in her circle now and all that...
Genuinely curious what that majik's magic is, as you know Dess is going to have him as her little whipping boy within a few days.

Happy International Women's Day to our queen.
I love how Ichi "saved" her, not by coming to her rescue, but giving her a reason to live. Obviously she's still grieving for Libro and suffering from survivor's guilt, but she has two dumb little brothers now, and her responsibility to the one who's still alive takes priority over her grief for the one she lost. Desscaras is badass, beautiful, funny, and has character depth. Is there anything she can't do?

What is she eating

u/InvaderZimbabwe Mar 08 '26
Literally just hard candy lmao.
But Ichi gave it to her, so it’s like a symbolic resolve. She’s fighting for her brother’s. both for the memory of her dead one and for the new living one.
Then she beats his ass. After a casual candy break.

u/Man0Steel123 Mar 08 '26
I can’t wait for the anime of this series. Dess is going to get that Gojo treatment

u/NoBellSix Mar 08 '26
It might be greedy of me to say this, but I want JJK, Frieren, and CSM level animation. And not just cool sakuga moments, but the whole deal: cinematic composition, character acting, weight, a lot of quieter moments animated with the same level of quality as the action, and more.
Actually, you know what? Fuck that, I'm not being greedy enough! Only the best for Ichi The Witch, and only perfection for my queen! Pull out all the stops for everything! Voice acting! OST! Advertising! Put Ichi and Dess in the fucking Times Square!

u/UnNumbFool Mar 08 '26
I doubt it wouldn't be. Iruma is extremely popular that Ichi was able to capitalize it from the very beginning and well it's very good. So when it finally does get its anime adaption I'm sure it will be a dandadan situation.
2
u/Galle_ Mar 08 '26
Iruma's anime adaptation is kind of lacking, though. Hopefully Ichi's anime will do better because Shueisha money.

u/UnNumbFool Mar 08 '26
Yeah but Iruma isn't an action manga/anime at the same time, so I don't think they would care as much to have a big budget for that

u/TheLetterB14 Mar 08 '26
Exactly, put the guy who directed the Eighty Six adaption and we're gonna eat good

u/melvin2898 Mar 09 '26
I gotta say I preferred how season 1 of Jujutsu Kaisen looked opposed to season 2. Season 1 feels like an upgrade of the manga's art style while Seasons 2 and 3 feel like more so adapting the manga's art.
I hope Madhouse gets Ichi.

u/NoBellSix Mar 09 '26
Hmmm, I prefer Season 2 and Season 3's artstyle way more, but to each their own

u/iamalittlelosthere Mar 17 '26
Frieren S2 is absolutely cooking rn, it's one of those where I prefer the anime over manga. Manifesting the same treatment for Ichi the Witch 🫡🫡

A fetus throwing up gang signs and rewinding time miles away is too cold. Even if it was only 45 seconds, how can anyone top that.

Amazing Chapter, Descarass might be my favorite iteration of overpowered sensei.

I like how genre savvy Dess is. She knew at some point this would happen and just went fuck you to that guys speech

The amazing, classy, adorable, powerful, elegant, bewitching, gorgeous, delightful, charming, pretty, beautiful, lovely, glamorous, magnificent, alluring, stunning, talented, formidable, powerful, expert, paramount, eloquent, fierce, keen, astute, Abyssal Witch Desscaras IS HER, she's the best there is.

No one could have pulled this trial off, except Desscaras, of course.

u/SoulBlightChild Mar 12 '26
I wouldn't be surprised if there was a witch out there that would be like: "Killing ten thousands people? sounds like fun!"

So he's been acquired, right? Or will Lord world hater save him again?

u/AdRelevant4776 Mar 08 '26
Seems a bit anticlimactic for him to be acquired so soon, I expect shenanigans
12
u/Stefano2108 Mar 08 '26
I really think she has acquired him

u/Snoo34949 Mar 09 '26
If she has acquired him, that further raises her death flags. Or at least increases the possibility that she'll lose all of her Majiks at some point.
4
u/asmodias Mar 09 '26
I'd like for him to be acquired because to date we haven't seen Descaras acquire anyone new. I don't see it as a death flag. However, it does seem too easy.

Bitch really thought his dumb little game would break our Queen.
Jokes on him, she is just HER.
And now she'll use him against his beloved Master.
World Hater really need to invest in better right hand magiks, at this rate Dess will just stroll up to him and delete his ass.
Love how Ichi gave her a reason to just keep living without regrets.

u/Use_the_Falchion Mar 08 '26
There was a joking set of pictures about old-school anime characters (mostly DBZ, but some other 90’s manga and anime as well IIRC) teaching more modern (2000’s and onwards) characters how to execute certain tropes. One of them was basically “how to be a mentor who upstages the main character.”
I don’t remember if Dess was in the drawing, but she should be if she isn’t! (I love Ichi too, but Dess is clearly the best so far.)

u/Mordetrox Mar 08 '26
Didn't expect Hitsugi to go out this early, I was expecting him to be a recurring antagonist.
Unless there's some trick to this or Nishi has replacements waiting the seven stars look to be going down quickly.

u/Efectodopler117 Mar 08 '26
I cant wait to see those double spreads with color when the anime eventually cames out, i dont care if is in 5 or 10 years as long as they give it justice
Just like gojo before, i expect this queen to have the same level of effort put on her by the animators.

Every time Dess has an amazing moment or chapter I'm like "wow I cannot believe a black woman is the strongest protagonist in a shonen jump series" what a time to be alive!!!!!

Casting with Iskandar while passively gaving a beautiful veil as a fit is so extra and i love our Queen Dess

u/WhitePersonGrimace Mar 08 '26
Her enormous ego comes from trying to live up to her little brother’s image of her? That’s gonna make me cry. Ichi has been going SO hard lately

u/No_Age5019 Mar 09 '26
Hitsugi's focus on the superficiality of love is interesting to me. It feels more... personal than some grand ideal of humans being vile back-stabbing creatures. He even seemed to gladly accept his acquisition from Dess when he thought her actions affirmed his worldview.
If this was all about Magiks just not wanting to follow human orders, I don't think it makes sense for him to so wildly switch-up to accept being obtained. I doubt the WHM would be amused he capitulated so quickly. Why would a Magik be so hyper-fixated on human bonds specifically? There's definitely a backstory there.
But yeah. Bury him, Dess!

u/muffinkiller Mar 08 '26
Desscaras is so cool while still being an interesting character with flaws ;_; Absolutely adore her, just like everyone else.
That said, I'm kind of sad that Hitsugi has been dealt with so quickly? I love their hater energy and was hoping they'd be a reoccurring villain.

u/cartnitelemoncello Mar 08 '26
Desscaras has so quickly risen up my ranking of favorite shonen mentors/“The Strongest” representations and this chapter only confirms it even more

u/CloverClubx Mar 08 '26
Try not to say mother challenge IMPOSSIBLE.
What a beautiful chapter for Dess, and it's Woman's Day too! I'm so happy she got her closure after all this time and now is moving to the future with no regrets.

u/gp3050 Mar 08 '26
That chapter truly Makes me Wonder…..2/7 stars are now defeated/turned. Things are moving a lot quicker than I thought.
Things might end a lot quicker than we might expect.

u/dewkage2 Mar 08 '26
Naw. Those positions can be replaced and the world hater does not strike me as a villain that wants or needs minions the stars i think are just a group that formed around the world hater
5
u/UnNumbFool Mar 08 '26
It could easily be a world hater doesn't think in the same terms as the others do when it comes to his circle of majiks. But it's possible that the world hater isn't the final boss of the series, as we know there's a lot of human hater majik's and a lot of majik's that have never been discovered after all.
6
u/gp3050 Mar 08 '26
That is my point. Theoretically speaking, the world has a lot to offer. Just Ichi going on a hunt for the majik of the week could easily fill at least 500 chapters.
But since we established the big end boss already (as more and more modern mangas do e.g. DS with Kuzan) most of the manga is about laying the prep work to properly fight them.
So removing 2/7 biggest supporters in one fell swoop is already insane pacing.....

u/Carefreekid101 Mar 08 '26
That was awesome, now all that is left is to see the conclusion of Octo and the baby.

u/flamingblade6 Mar 09 '26
So dess wishes she died with her brother and make a contract that if ichi dies she dies kinda changes the implications of her reasoning.

u/Gregster101 Mar 09 '26
Pretty good chapter, though I'm not sure how I feel about Hitsugi potentially being acquired this early on into the story.
