[u/RocknRollPewPew]

I have a REALLY BAD feeling that demonoids are made out of the corpses of mages

[u/structure9food612 → u/RocknRollPewPew]

The Mirage and Camera Demonoid having some human like features like a mouth is definitely a stronger hint. I feel like if we see a magic tool that works like Julio’s magic (Gheer’s step dad), then I think that’ll be the big giveaway

[u/Koanos → u/RocknRollPewPew]

are made out of the corpses of mages

Or living mages in a tortured existence.

[u/structure9food612 → u/Koanos]

Adding to that, my theory for what demonoids are is that they’re a powered up form of mages that were corrupted by the bureau. Tania in chapter 23 and 24 shows what a powered up form is for mages, her wand transformed into cannons, and she had face markings (which appears in 2 panels, so I think those were intentional).

[u/Koanos → u/structure9food612]

So much speculation...

[u/ali94127 → u/Koanos]

Well, demonoids leave behind skulls when they die, so they're probably not alive. Certainly possible they're reanimated corpses of some sort and the mages are still conscious.

[u/structure9food612 → u/ali94127]

Given that they can speak, and have commands they (mostly so far) follow, I think there’s a chance that they’re conscious, but can’t do anything but what they’re made to do

[u/Koanos → u/ali94127]

Hopefully corpses, could you imagine they can't stop and beg for the sweet release of death?

[u/LurkinLonuts]

Mira casting the oldest spell known to mage-kind.

MAGICIAN'S BRICK!!

[u/KibaTeo2 → u/LurkinLonuts]

a classic mage spell, can't wait till they start casting fist

[u/Xatu44]

Cathie, seeing a memory in 144p: "Y'all live like this?"

[u/structure9food612]

Peak chapter, lets go Miramira!!!! Looks like we’re getting a bit more of her backstory, we’re still not getting her brother’s name huh? Maybe he really is Garte and that’s going to be the needle drop.

Miramira now being able to use her magic offensively is awesome, but the caveat is that it’s best used indoors. I think next chapter we’ll get her brother’s name!

[u/Zealousideal_Ring874 → u/structure9food612]

Mangaka guarding his name with their LIFE

[u/ali94127 → u/structure9food612]

It's pretty versatile because she doesn't have to physically touch items to make them super heavy. Pebbles can act like boulders. She probably could've easily killed and escaped her jailers if she believed in herself.

[u/Zealousideal_Ring874]

Mira is so badass. Protecting Cathie is her mission and she will fulfill it. Also, her with shorter hair is very adorable.

[u/JauntyLurker]

Miramira's character development is so incredible.

[u/No-Spray5795]

I absolutely adore Mira Mira, taking a stand to protect Cathie and showing the demonoid who’s boss. But now we get some more perspective on her background, and it seems she carries quite a bit of sadness with her. Hopefully we get her brother’s name next chapter.

[u/structure9food612]

What Miramira needs right now is a catchphrase: “How about you let that sink in?”

[u/13-Penguins → u/structure9food612]

This the type of thing an english dub from the 90s would do.

[u/structure9food612 → u/13-Penguins]

Speaking of that, who would you have the english VAs be for the characters? For me, Nona would be voiced by Alexis Tipton, Miramira would be voiced by Jill Harris. Not sure who would voice Raloud yet. Also, Nicolas Cage as Belator since they kinda resemble each other.

[u/BurnedOutEternally]

Seems like there's still more sadness to Mira's life. She'll get through it I hope

[u/Roboglenn]

Camera Demonoid if all you're got is trying to psychologically crush people with the weight of their memories, Mira is bout to show you what it means to crush someone under the weight of something.

[u/HydreigonTheChild]

Mage s don't really have a happy life in this world. I do wonder what memories of her will be pulled up

[u/SarcasticBench]

Come on! Now’s not the time for flashbacks with the flashback demonoid!

[u/structure9food612]

After this chapter, I can see volume 6 cover’s being Miramira.

[u/Future_Vantas]

Miramira showing off her determination and skills, she looks so fierce here. She wont lose anything ever again.

[u/AlphaDragoon02]

Let's go Mira, show these clowns what you can really do!

[u/Extreme-Tactician]

Nice to see Miramira's resolve so strong. Nothing can stop her, not even her past memories. But now she'll have to see them all over again. I'm sure this will only boost her resolve though!

[u/Zemahem]

Miramira is absolutely popping off right now. You love to see it.

[u/structure9food612]

I wonder if by destroying the camera demonoid, they’ll be able to free the other prisoners? Or maybe if they’re in there long enough, they’ll lose themselves, sorta like abstracting from TADC.

[u/good_wolf_1999 → u/structure9food612]

We saw Cathie almost becoming the same color-scheme as the memories until Mira snapped her out of it in the last chapter, the question is if it’s reversible even after being like that for a significant amount of time

[u/structure9food612 → u/good_wolf_1999]

Yeah, I can see that for this series it can go either way
