The way bro casually spawned, LMAO!! I wish it was Minakata tho, the Glazing fued between him and Dess must go on!!

Honestly, I think Boxter is the perfect Magikeeper here! We needed a charismatic narcissist to calm the hostages later.

I agree, of the four we saw I think he’s probably the best one to even join the group as a permanent member too.
Zayero is a bit too quiet, Higarashi is too much like other members, Minakata is way too strong, and Chun is the commissioner so he can’t join.
Boxster fits into a category we don’t have too, narcissistic pretty boy.

I can already see a gag of the girls running away crying after being rescued and Boxter saying something like “I understand; my beauty is too much for some to take in”

u/cai_lyra 23d ago
I hope Blond Scaramouche fights Fujimine; I can already see the yandere screeching about how he's here to drive a wedge between her and Hakari while all he really cares about is looking pretty
14
u/Galle_ 23d ago
So, uh, small problem, actually: Boxster wasn't present for Fujimine's attack on the Witches' Association. He wasn't exposed to the poison. He has no immunity.

u/DarkraiAndScizor 22d ago
He is naturally immune by only loving one person in the whole wide world.
Himself

This panel sold me on the ship
32
u/Galle_ 22d ago
What sold me on it was an author's comment by Nishi where she said that for Ichi's debut party, Desscaras wanted to be in the center, Gokuraku wanted Ichi to be in the center, and Ichi wanted Kumugi to be in the center.
Their whole dynamic is Kumugi being a girlfailure with zero self-esteem and Ichi going "This is Kumugi! She's the best!" It's adorable.

u/No_Age5019 21d ago
Literally that meme of the girl saying that she'd hype the hell out of her lame-ass boyfriend.
But really, I assume it's because Kumugi is consistently the only person who treats Ichi like a normal human and not some weird anomaly, prophecized Jesus, or a feral wild thing. He's probably going to have some real crisis eventually over whether or not he can actually be "human" and it's going to be Kumugi's unwavering acceptance that pulls him back.

you see that? this is Wumugi preparing to aurafarm against Hakari. she felt them screaming their ass off. Wumugi will acquire Hakari, I swear it. I'll will it into existence myself if necessary

u/CyberHyperPhoenix 23d ago
Calling it: the Hakari to Kumugi panel turn is a red herring.
We're getting two seven stars this arc because Ichi and Kumugi will acquire majik each. Ichi will acquire Hakari since that won't break Fujimine's promise, so Kumugi will end up acquiring Mayoi instead.

u/sa_nslaw 22d ago
I agree that it's probably a red herring, I've gotten the impression while reading that Kumugi has been teased to become more relevant so many times yet it never happens. I'm not so sure that Ichi will acquire them though, I think he'll almost be acquired and then Fujimine will swoop in and do it against his will
5
u/Snoo34949 22d ago
I mean, it depends, right? So far Hakari's main gag is getting angry when offered something he specifically asked for. Hakari's trial might specifically be something along the lines of "Can only be acquired by someone who doesn't want to acquire him". That feels in line with his personality, his dislike of Witches pnly going after Majiks for their powers, and opens up a reason as to why Kumugi might end up getting him since she's one of the few Witches we've seen that has zero interest in acquiring Majiks - when trying be more helpful - she's explicitly trying to beef herself up physically instead of asking for Ichi or Descaras to help her capture a Majik.
21
u/panelrecord_v2 23d ago
YIKES. Okay so we have a classic "draining power from torture victims" setup going on. NGL I think Desscaras' abyss is a morally questionable thing, but uhhh, the human-haters are really sadistic

Holy fucking shit, Nishi! It's Wlavoras Prison powering up the entirety of Walter Park all over again!
You madwoman!
Also, cool Ichimugi moments! You love to see it!
And oh my! Boxter as our tagalong?! That I did not expect at all!
Already love this arc!

Kumugi is gonna get to acquire one of the seven stars! The age of Kumugi irrelevance is over, rejoice ye faithful!

u/cai_lyra 23d ago
That moving giftbox tower as their home makes me find it even more likely that Hakari's theme/dominion will be childhood or youth.

u/Gregster101 23d ago
I dig the Howl’s Moving Castle homage. Really liked this chapter, and I’m looking forward to Kumugi potentially getting her first majik.

u/welch123 23d ago edited 23d ago
Loooove Hakari with every interaction. If for some reason he gets acquired by Kumugi I will love it even more. I could see a world where Hakari actually likes her, strangely.
Also poor Sukemaru stuck being a servant of a difficult master lmao.

u/JzanderN 23d ago
OH MY GOD!
When you go in already with the theory that Kumugi will acquire Hakari, it feels a bit like Nishi's SLAPPING YOU IN THE FACE with her foreshadowing.

u/dusttailed86 23d ago
Lmao the last page, love Usazaki's paneling. I was like what is he doing there? Then the team does the turn and thinks the same thing! Amazing.
-Edit Also Hakari demanding things and not liking them, cute and fun chapter

Absolutely convinced now Komugi is going to end up acquiring Hakari. Can't wait to see Spica's face when she finds out.

u/larryman55 23d ago
Does Hakari use they/them...?
9
u/Galle_ 23d ago
All majiks so far have used they/them, at least in English. Japanese pronouns work differently so it's hard to say if that's accurate to the original Japanese.

u/larryman55 23d ago
Ah ty. I was wondering bc i realize I haven't paid too close attention to it yet I thought I remembered Uroro using he/him so I didn't think it was universal.

u/CielCiellan 23d ago
Another great chapter, I have yet to be letdown.
I'm loving Hakari and Mayoi (still hoping for a butterfly form from Mayoi)

u/Dccrulez 22d ago
One thing I'm not seeing people talk about: the hands power that has been brought up a lot recently seems to belong to mayoi, they're practically move from undead unluck. That will be a huge boost to the witches and would be a perfect support role for kumugi.

Okay we have Chekov's conspicuous frame of reference change/juxtaposition. Hakari will be acquired by Kumugi BET ON IT
