#gachiakuta ages

[ectoplasmjelly]

PSA to the Gachia fanbase :>

It's come to my attention that not everyone is aware of the ages of the characters in Gachiakuta and I'd like to amicably amend that, just a friendly fyi :]

I'm doing the most recurring characters for now, lemme know if y'all want more canon ages :>

Rudo Surebrec - ~15 Enjin - 28 Zanka Nijiku - 17 Riyo - 16 Jabber Wongar - 18

This info is based on the Fandom Wiki which sources the ages from character profiles in Volume 7 and 8 (I'm trying to find the profiles so I can confirm for myself, I'll update if I find them 😭😭😭)

totes fine with aging up and all that but it does get a little weird in my mind when the character actually looks. 15.

Character: Nyx Gearlock

Age: 27

Height: 170cm [5’7]

Race: Black Specialization: Automotive Engineer and Mechanic Specialist

Affiliation: Cleaners Organization

Vital Instrument: Al, the Large Pipe Wrench

Backstory and Relationship with Al:

Nyx Gearlock grew up surrounded by the hum of engines and the clinking of tools. Her family ran a small but reputable garage in the Junkyard, where they repaired and modified various vehicles. From a young age, Nyx showed a natural aptitude for mechanics, quickly mastering the intricacies of automotive engineering. During one of her scavenging missions, she discovered Al, the large pipe wrench, buried under a pile of scrap. Drawn to its unique design and sensing its hidden potential, Nyx took it back to her workshop. Over time, she realized that Al was no ordinary tool; it seemed to respond to her thoughts and actions, becoming an extension of her own skills and abilities.

Properties and Abilities of Al:

Size and Strength: Al is a formidable pipe wrench, significantly larger and stronger than typical tools. It is perfect for heavy-duty automotive work and can double as a powerful weapon when needed.

Mechanized Enhancements: Al features built-in mechanized adjustments that allow it to resize and alter its grip automatically, adapting to various mechanical tasks and challenges.

Energy Conduction: Al can channel and amplify Nyx's energy, enhancing her physical strength and precision when working on intricate automotive parts or during combat.

Sentient Connection: Nyx shares a unique bond with Al, allowing her to intuitively understand its capabilities and limitations. This connection enables seamless coordination, whether she's repairing a vehicle or defending herself against threats.

Appearance:

Al is adorned with intricate, glowing engravings that signify its unique properties. Its handle is wrapped in a durable, non-slip material, and the wrench's jaws can expand and contract to fit different sizes of nuts and bolts.

Personality and Skills:

Nyx Gearlock is resourceful, intelligent, and highly skilled in automotive engineering and mechanics. Her expertise allows her to repair, modify, and enhance a wide range of vehicles, from motorcycles to heavy-duty trucks. She is known for her quick thinking and adaptability, often finding innovative solutions to complex mechanical problems. Despite her tough exterior and no-nonsense attitude, Nyx has a compassionate side, always willing to lend a hand to those in need.

Role in the Cleaners Organization:

As a member of the Cleaners, Nyx’s mechanical expertise is invaluable. The Cleaners, a specialized organization dedicated to maintaining and protecting the Junkyard, rely on Nyx to ensure that their vehicles and equipment are always in top condition. Nyx's workshop is a central hub for the Cleaners, where she works tirelessly to repair and upgrade their machinery, ensuring that they are always ready for any mission.

Role in Gachiakuta:

In the manga 'Gachiakuta,' Nyx Gearlock and her vital instrument, Al, are indispensable to the Junkyard's community and the Cleaners organization.

Her mechanical expertise is crucial in the Junkyard's defense, as she often modifies vehicles and equipment for combat purposes. Nyx's bond with Al makes her a formidable fighter, and she frequently joins missions to protect the Junkyard from external threats. Her role within the Cleaners organization highlights her dedication to maintaining the safety and functionality of the Junkyard.

Gachiakuta 115, or Yes, Corvus Lore is about to DROP, BABY, WOOOOO

Ok ok ok I LOVE this chapter OMG. I also have some thoughts about it which make me excited and wanting to screech.

Beware spoilers!

I am a bit scared about what Tamzy is going to do while on a mission with Team Child... OK, more than a bit, I am feeling very tense about the whole ordeal. I thought he'd go after Enjin or, idk, Zanka? Remlin? Since them and Rudo are very close... However, could the kids under Santa's protection be actual possible targets?

I loved how Corvus stared him down BTW. He was so real for that. I think Arkha knows there's some bullshit cooking in Tamzy's mind and even if Tamzy tries to put the kids in danger, Corvus has decided to watch over them and he's sending Tamzy a very clear message.

Also Arkha and Corvus talking to each other??? Rudo's even further development???

Arkha's expression of pride????? HELLO????

Oh my goddddd I love these two even more now.

The reveal that the Cleaners are more than just, y'know, Trash Beast hunters is interesting. I sort of suspected it, since Corvus is a very inquisitive person AND their boss.

Of course Arkha is interested in the Sphere and the Ground and their origins, of course he would want to investigate them. But I had thought that, similar to the Fire Soldiers of company 8th in Fire Force, "discovering hidden truths" hadn't necessarily been the objective that the Cleaners had been created with in mind. I thought it had been a recent development, either from Corvus himself or his predecessors.

I saw someone highlight that Corvus staying in his room for four days is an indicator that he is Kuro. Could be. The Kuro=Corvus theory is becoming the most obvious solution to the dilemma of Kuro's interest in the Cleaners and Corvus' hidden characteristics (age, Jinki). I still want to know if this is an Elden Ring situation (Kuro and Corvus are separate, but the same thing) or a Shapeshifter situation (they are not separate identities, it's just one being putting on masks... and by Kuro's own admission, forgetting which comes closer to his original personhood).

At the same time, it seems that Corvus, much like Kuro, doesn't trust the Choker-maker. Is it really a good thing, for the Cleaners and the Raiders, to look after the Choker's creator? I am positively pumped up, can't wait to see it.

I am also of the firm belief that the Manga is setting up towards an alliance between Cleaners and Raiders. And Tamzy, I believe, is going to be the reason why they will join forces. I don't remember where, but a member of the Raiders (was it Jabber?) said that they really don't vibe with the Angel. Though maybe, in the end, it could be Tamzy and Raiders that join forces: after all, both Zodyl and Tamzy have an interest in Rudo, although for seemingly different reasons.

I adore the scene of Corvus kneeling to Rudo. He's putting himself on Rudo's level and at the same time, he's showing... admiration. Rudo's all "I don't wanna be bothersome and a burden to you Cleaners" SHADDUP MY BOI CORVUS LOVES YA ALREADY

Father/son or best friend duo, I can't choose.

And yes Rudo, coffee is horrible without milk and sugar. I feel ya.

OMG GACHIAKUTA POSTING !??!? IN THIS DAY AND AGE :0000

started a new manga and now i have a new loml

[zarathelonewolf]

GACHIAKUTA 116 AKA I HATE THE RESULT. OF THE USA ELECTIONS BUT I LOVE GACHIAKUTA SO I WILL FOCUS ON THAT

This is literally what it says on the tin.

I will not bore you with a discussion on the elections. They were shit. Period. I hate that Harris lost.

Someone liked the previous version of this post which I just eliminated because I have now posted THIS post, after erroneously thinking that Tumblr hadn't registered it (it was not showing on my blog). Sorry for the person that liked the previous post, @orngbanana, this is the actual post.

Having said that I need to distract myself from the mess, so I shall talk about Gachiakuta's 116 Issue, my oh my, such good things it gave me! Since, you know, THREE OF MY MAIN POOKIES ARE IN IT! AT THE SAME TIME! AND THEY'RE ALL GORGEOUS!

Let's talk about it!

As we suspected, there is a huge chunk of history between the moment that the Sphere and Ground split from each other, and the moment Rudo fell. There are records of those lost times, however they haven't been kept well, or maybe they've been censored.

Corvus wants to investigate them. He wants to obtain the lost info. Like Kuro as well. Which makes me think that Corvus and Kuro really are the same person: Corvus's goal of Finding Out What Happened After Whatever The Heck It Was That Split The World In Two™ and Kuro's goal of Gaining Back The Memories Missing From My Brain Who Has Shapeshifted Too Much™ can align and coincide. Also, if the first Cleaner Corvus references is the same as the "friend" he mentions, and it ends up being Canis, there's little room for theories that don't have "they're the same person" as an outcome.

Corvus is being too hard on himself in my opinion. Of course he's a leader and carries responsibility for the Cleaners, however the Cleaners themselves are "using" the organization for their own wants and needs, like protection, a sense of belonging, a search for power. Rudo himself has his own goal. He also finds Arkha to be a honest man, and is surprised upon hearing the opinion Arkha has of his actions. To Rudo, being honest has a greater importance than being "righteous". "Righteousness" has led to Rudo's fall.

Rudo himself makes Arkha notice the bigger picture, I think. He "accepts" Corvus's need to "use him", especially because Corvus has proclaimed that he wants to help Rudo. Rudo makes Corvus realize that what him and the Cleaners have is a "collaboration" and not "exploitation", since both sides get something they are looking for.

I really like the detail of Corvus's eye tattoo closing and crying. Rudo's growth warms my heart just as much as yours, big guy.

Now, unto Zodyl!

...

Yeesh.

...

YEESH!

This boi has a lot of trauma!

So, we finally get a glimpse into the man's past, and it is not pleasant.

I have two theories about this, and they all derive from the obvious implication that the people carrying Zodyl away from his mother and sister are trash worshipers.

There are two theories in my mind: the Initiation Ritual one, and the Kidnapping one.

INITIATION RITUAL: The tribe of trash worshipers has a ceremony that decides whether or not they have worshiped trash correctly, and if there are bad things coming for them in the future. It is also a ritual of initiation for their children, who will be "blessed" by the trash that falls upon them. Their children are brought in the spot where the trash storm happens and left there. I assume that both the children that die and those that survive the trash storm are considered blessed due to the simple fact that they could stand underneath the godly trash as it fell, and yet at the same time, if a lot of children die it means that the tribe didn't worship trash correctly or that the following years are going to be harsh... Or maybe they think the opposite, that it is good because the children didn't die of old age or disease but because the trash touched them? Idk. Zodyl doesn't want to undergo the ritual, and I shall assume that he does not want his sister to do so, either: his mother is an ambiguous figure to me, is she protesting it too, reaching for her son like he is reaching for her? Or does she stand to the side, allowing the ceremony to take place? Does she approve or was she forced into silence?

KIDNAPPING THEORY: Maybe the trash worshipers are so devout to the trash that they think everyone, even those that don't want to worship it, should have contact with it. That could be why Zodyl is resisting the "baptism" so much (though it could also be true if he was raised among the worshipers but I digress).

Welp! No matter which of these theories is true, the first one seems very plausible to me. Zodyl seems to hate the Sphere's methods of waste disposal for sure, and he seems to consider trash worshipers as very naive on the surface, and if full for hatred for them deep inside. They "took" something from him: maybe his family died under the trash storm. He emerged victorious though... And vowed to take instead of having stuff be taken from him. He isn't going to be deprived again: he shall be the one to make the first move.

Lastly, I am thinking that the peak of sadness for Zodyl would be the origin of his coat's power.

Watchman Jinki seem to have a penchant for choosing owners that have a lot of trauma, deeply rooted issues, and empty void to fill. The coat, I assume, is no exception. He adapted to Zodyl due to his upbringing, and as a consequence, gave itself the power... to shapeshift according to what he eats.

I had a "wait a minute" vine moment, but thanks to Reddit and my good little brain, I managed to figure out why, and it hinges heavily on the first theory, according to which Zodyl and family were raised among trash worshipers.

Trash worshipers also accept the moldy, ruined food that ends up falling from the sky as organic waste. I can only assume that trash worshipers also eat said organic waste, in order to be "one with the trash" or some shit.

This can easily be classified as traumatic. I doubt Zodyl liked eating moldy food, or scavenging moldy food. So maybe that's what the coat latched onto when it bonded with Zodyl.

I am reminded of Kuro's words about Zodyl, about the fact that Zodyl seems to be hiding the weaknesses of his powers from his Raiders. But I think the secret he keeps is deeper, I believe he is hiding his own weakness, his own longing that the coat manages to fill.

Urana's tweet about the sandwich Zodyl ate being made by Cthoni gives me even more happiness, comfort and relief than it did before. Even though Zodyl appears emotionless and is probably suppressing a lot of stuff, mainly with the help of the coat, someone has his back. Someone cares, even though he cannot bring himself to do so ever again and prefers being detached and practical.

Some questions this chapter raised:

Why weren't Enjin and Tamzy shown when Corvus explained that everyone in the Cleaners has their own goal? Is it because Corvus hasn't figured out what Enjin's deal is, and because he isn't sure of what Tamzy wants anymore because Tamzy is now suspicious in Corvus's eyes?

To what extent are the Raiders aware of Zodyl's past? Is Cthoni the closest to him?

The obvious one of "Are Corvus and Kuro the same person?"

Are these trash worshipers going to be more relevant than simple plot devices to explain Zodyl's worldview? Are they tied to the reason why the Sphere keeps throwing trash on the ground?

Is Canis the First Cleaner and/or Corvus's friend?

Having said that, happy life to everyone! Be like the populace of the Ground: keep living, stay safe, keep forging bonds with others and finding joy into the little things and that which society discards!
