#TPN 125

[fullscoreshenanigans]

For better or worse, we can narrow it down to them dying in the beginning or middle of October, so we know they didn't die on his actual birthday.

(Mystic Code Book Chapter 7 - Series Timeline)

Assuming Norman arranging the conference with Geelan traveling to and from their base all takes place over the course of a minimum of two days from October 30-31, that means that the latest they died is October 18, and the latest the group can begin their ten-day journey to the paradise hideout is October 19.

Mangacaps below the cut:

(Chapter 110; either still the same night Lucas and Yuugo die or the very early morning hours of the next day, assuming Andrew wouldn't live longer than a day with the injuries he sustained.)

(Chapter 112; still in the early morning hours when Ray shoots down the mechanical owl that was tracking them.)

(Chapter 113; a sunrise to official start the next day when they begin the ten-day journey)

(Chapter 114; the timestamps we're given of their journey before the group meets Hayato and Jin)

(Chapter 118; Zazie showing up on the night of the eighth day to escort the group to the paradise hideout, which they reach roughly two days later)

(Chapter 122 | Chapter 125; Norman arranges the conference with Geelan via letter, presumably delivered by owl since the first and last time they meet, Geelan told him to come alone with one subordinate himself, and Geelan mentions it's a long journey that Norman and Zazie are taking on foot.)

WAIT NONONONONO-

WAIT WAIT WAIT NO

WHAT DO YOU MEAN THEY DIED THE SAME MONTH HE WAS BORN????!!!! WHAT DO YOU MEANNNNNNN

we don't have a specific time frame for when bunker dads bite the dust but the fact that it is so close IS JUST HEARTBREAKING WTFFFF

Chapter 125: "Alliance of Liars"

The level of confidence Norman has in order to pull off the WM facade in front of these menacing demons is crazy. He seems so unbothered by them all too, like they could rip him apart so easily yet he remains completely chill. I guess he has a lot of faith in Zazie to protect him, alongside the upcoming deal.

I bet people can call him a snack and he wouldn't care for it either.

The fact the demons went out of their way to get a chair suitable for a human to use will never not be funny to me.

I'll be honest, I don't really pay much attention to the demon heavy chapters, even if this one includes Norman, so I forgot about the whole "making Geelan king" idea, but makes sense if they're planning to take over the capital anyways. I'm all for the payback towards the Ratri clan though. Fuck 'em.

Our boy certainly knows how to be convincing, playing the best mind games to ensure that this alliance results in a success.

Pfftt why must he say such things with that kind of smile on his face?

Summoning jutsu.

What a little chess-master. Isabella would be proud.

At least they're not completely stupid. Sure Norman looks like a grown man compared to the other children, but with how old James should be by this point, he does appear far too young.

Favorite panel/moment:

Who knew this precious lad could be so intimidating. I suppose you pick up on some things after dealing with Isabella and all these demons long enough.

Norman be lookin like a middle-aged divorce attorney at 13

Let’s establish a new world together

[youuuimeanmee]

Honestly, I have a feeling that Norman is getting a little bit too cocky because almost all of his plans always work (helping his family escaped from Grace Field, escaping Lambda, destroying plantations, saving hundreds of cattle children's live),

so I was kinda hoping that Norman will fail just this once, just to slap some sense into him..

But we've actually seen his reaction when he lose to Mom for the first time.

He just become more desperate,

too reckless to charge the enemy first,

and that keeps continuing up until now.

So if the Norman now is getting too confident with his plan, imagine what'll happen, what he'll do when it failed.

Sleep?

I hardly know her

[luallba]

In the lastest TPN chapter, when Norman was negotiating with the demon, I was suspecting if what he was saying was truth, and then...

NORMAN, WAS PLAYING 4D CHESS WITH THE DEMON SINCE THE BEGINNING, JUST WHEN I THINK HE COULD NOT BE MORE INTELLIGENT, HE APPEARS AND SHOWS ME OTHERWISE

Posuka Demizu: I just fucking love drawing demon tongues,,,,,

Thought they were fist bumping there for a second.

That’s just nasty, dude.

Boy, it’s like me and my brothers when we shook hands with our fingers crossed behind our backs.

[allanimanga]

“Thank you for taking the journey, William Minerva.”

[map-of-neverland]

It’s fine, Zazie. Keep your sword sheathed

[youuuimeanmee]

This paralellism tho

But we know one of anime/manga rules: When someone challenge you first, they're going to lose

So hnnggghhh

[brave-symphonia]

Norman must be pretty confident about his plan to sign away the lives of all his people.
