Demon Guren using that pressure to constrain his squad was a nice analogy for the crushing tension that something terrible could have happened to anyone, Guren himself as well!

Would offer a flip side, that rather than it being painful seeing Shinya as a demon so effortlessly defeated, it was more about showing how strong Guren is. That’s something very welcome since Shinya is safe (more so since thanks to Guren ‘defeating’ him, it was more about defeating Byakkomaru to stop him taking over Shinya whilst Guren was gone). Secondly it’s an excellent sign of how strong Guren is and that will be needed in the fight to come whether he’s honing in on the first, Saito, or any of the vampire nobles who are to turn up.

Just on the nobles, will guess here Urd Geales and his regiment will arrive at Shibuya after the first and Saito are out of the city through whatever means. If there is a fight between like Guren, Saito and the first, Urd’s arrival may be timed to come across the ruined city and we can see what he makes of the weakened Japanese Imperial Demon Army. If he could ally with them against likely Saito on the other side with his seraph that would be incredible.

Truthfully you have earned your bragging rights XD it’s no easy task to speculate what is, and could be going on in the story especially with the prequel novel events being tied into the larger story, impressive efforts!

Love the huge warning XD and yes it’s some measure of affection embracing demon power utterly to rescue a squad mate. Just needs to sink in the change in Shinya where before he was attacking indiscriminately without emotion to the stage he has come too now, good for Shinya! You’re so right come to think of it, what good is a reforged world with the humans surviving if it’s not led by decent people who can actually show benevolence like Shinya can?

Would say there needs to be like an official team Guren fan crew, added right there in the manga as well and there actually is in his squad XD hope readers can understand the perspectives of his team and others that he may have some (really) dark moments but Guren is one to support and hold in a positive light.

On the fence about Mahiru’s overall plans, from her time as a human still considering that she has something planned to get an edge over Saito, and soon may be the time to see evidence of that! As for Saito, think he is counting on Guren’s arrival to secure the victory over the first. Still yes he would at least consider that Guren would focus on him once the first was restrained.

Hope Guren does get rid of these huge red death flags that keep beeping above him, he’s been through enough already! XD

Loved the spirit of Mahiru seemingly fully free of the Noya side that made them both Mahiru-no-Yo present a knowing smile, saw it as she was back to herself as they were before the whole world ending thing. Though she may still retain her hidden plans, do agree Mahiru is kind at heart and like Guren is simply out of options but to engage in horrible events to have humanity survive in the bigger picture.

This was an excellent analysis of the characters in this chapter, something needed since this kick off is evidently going to lead to a larger one in the next chapter.

Still cannot tell everyone how relieving it is that it had this better than imaginable scenario. It could have gotten very bad, very fast, all Guren had to do was literally say the magic words, and then there was the whole could have become an enraged demon thing. Stands out as a fantastic chapter among fantastic chapters!
