The Great Wave - Chapter 11 Review

‼️SPOILERS FOR THE CHAPTER‼️

And we're back!! Yay!!

It felt like a year since I've done these but I'm so happy we get to see what happened after that ANNOYING ASS cliffhanger.

And omg after reading this, I genuinely had so many more questions!!

So without further ado, LET'S DO THIS SHIT

We go back to where we've been before, aka seeing these three goobers choking up from that damn blueberry.

I'd like to point out that this is one of the rarest times where we get to see colored blood in the manga. I get that we've seen them bleed before, but the red popping up like that really made me miss it 🥰🥰

😀😀

Hotass masochist is at it again-

Anyways, Grougalorasalar brings Yugo and Adamai in their memories 💕without their consent💕 and...he actually never saw the Inglorium damn.

Daddy Grougalorasalar already has beef with these two morons so just imagine how he must be feeling from the fact that not only did they cause a lot of problems (without meaning to) in the world, but they also got to visit the gods' realm before him.

This guy might have lived far longer than these two and even he didn't see this place before them....

But what actually makes me confused here is that bro not only hates Yugo but is actually curious about what kinda shit he's gonna do next.

Like yeah he hates Yugo for doing shit he didn't mean to but at the same time he's waiting for him to do more shit cuz he's curious. Does...does Grougalorasalar like to cause trouble to people and to himself??

Omg...he's such a slut for pain i can't-

Yugo....sweetie...no 💕

A huge part of me knew he was still going to act recklessly and charge at Grougalorasalar without thinking. But on the other hand, a small part of me mindlessly hoped that he'd be more aware of the situation he was in. But at least it just goes to show that Yugo never lost his tendency to charge at the enemy ever since season 1.

Fun fact, in french, Yugo is yelling at him because he doesn't understand why Grougalorasalar would cause problems to "good people". I love how we still get to see his kid side resurfacing from time to time because that was the most stupidest thing a grown man could say.

YES!! THANK YOU!! THAT'S EXACTLY WHAT WE WANT TO KNOW!!

You have no idea how annoyed I felt when we got no answers as to why the other gods weren't present in Inglorium. I understood that it was because Tot wanted to explain their disappearances in Waven but I was still very into this mystery cuz it puts the eliatrope goddess in a bad light.

So to hear Grougalorasalar mention Inglorium's crumbled state makes me really happy to see cuz we get to at least dig on that topic.

OOOFFFFF‼️‼️‼️

NO YUGO HE'S GOT A POINT YOUR MOTHER WAS SO SUS ‼️‼️‼️

This is what I mean when I say that his mom needs to be held accountable, there's something seriously suspicious about someone who gives off weird vibes when they're supposed to be known as the goddess of LOVE AND CREATION.

I did not even think that Grougalorasalar knew about the state of the gods' realm, but it just goes to show that primordial dragons are aware of the world's situations and what goes beyond it.

But what shocked me the most in this chapter was that not only did Grougalorasalar know about the Inglorium being in shambles, BUT HE ALSO KNOWS WHO YUGO AND ADAMAI'S FATHER IS AND THAT THE GODDESS APPARENTLY INTERACTED WITH HIM BEFORE SEEING YUGO AND THE OTHERS.

There is a lot to unpack here just by reading these three panels.

First, Grougalorasalar confirmed to us that it was the Eliatrope goddess' fault that the other gods are not here. Back when someone asked her what had happened to the other gods, she simply dodged the question.

Second, Grougalorasalar claims that when the goddess got saved by Nora and Efrim, she went straight to her lover and freed him to take revenge on the other gods. This means that the goddess can, in fact, express feelings not related to pure emotions like love and compassion. She's like everyone else and does have faults of her own. This also proves us that this lover of hers is a very dangerous one. He's such a threat, in fact, that he was able to completely destroy the Inglorium and leave no traces as to where the other gods may have gone. We also got to know that her lover was angry. He may have been furious because the goddess had been imprisoned just like him. Why was he imprisoned? We don't know.

And third, Adamai doesn't know who their father is. It may seem very random that I'm mentioning him but it does make sense. Adamai had been taught and raised by Grougaloragran so he must've known who their father was. But judging by how Adamai seemed just as eager to know like Yugo, he never got to know who he is which means Grougaloragran, back in his prime, didn't know either.

But there are two people in Season 4 who must've known and those were Qilby and Nora.

The reason why Qilby knows is pretty obvious: he cannot forget a single thing from his millions of lives. So he must've known at some point who his father was.

And the reason why Nora knows is because she was assisting the goddess. Right after she saved her and had no choice but to leave Efrim behind to the necromes, she accompanied the goddess to free her father and then went with her to get the elite eliatropes.

If Qilby and Nora had still been alive, they would've explained everything to Yugo and Adamai, but we know that Tot loves to not reveal anything to these two 💀💀

Now for those who are not aware or haven't heard, Yugo and Adamai's father is not the Great Dragon apparently.

In an interview with Tot, he claimed that their father wasn't the Great Dragon and that the answer would be revealed soon.

So....take that as what you will.

Personally, it doesn't make any sense that he couldn't be the father because not only have we been told time and time again that the Great Dragon and the Goddess made the primordial eliatropes together, but we've also been told that he was also the one who created the krosmoz with her.

Now yes, he did take part in making the krosmoz it's just that Tot retconned the fact that he was the father of the primordial eliatropes.

It would've made much more sense if the Great Dragon was the father because it would explain why he had been imprisoned by the other gods for being too deadly.

But who knows, maybe Tot does have a good answer to all of this, and we've just never seen him before because he's a new character that had been hidden in the shadows all this time.

And speaking of Tot....

Remember when he said that Armand's name was supposed to be spelled with the letter 't' at the end?

Well...

THE CHAPTER LITERALLY ADDRESSES ARMAND WITH THE LETTER 'D' LIKE IT ALWAYS HAS BEEN ‼️‼️

You mean to tell me that this guy got so fed up with everyone from 'butchering' Armand's name when the seasons, the credits, the ovas, the mangas, and even the artbooks CALL HIM WITH A D.

Come on Tot just admit that you personally like to call him that cuz his name reminds you of a relative of yours. Because you make no sense when the show and the books have called him the exact opposite. Cuz if you keep doing that, we're just gonna break our heads and seriously wonder if we should trust your words over the canon source material that we've grown up with.

But anyways ✨️✨️

Not only did this chapter reveal that the goddess is sus, that we learned what happened when she got freed, that we know that Yugo and Adamai's father is not the Great Dragon, and that Tot makes his own headcanons, but we also got to see another character's name make a reveal in this chapter.

Why is Harebourg's name mentioned and why did Grougalorasalar tell them not to have messed with him. 😀😀😀

Look....

If his name being mentioned is because he's the official antagonist of Season 5, then I will die screaming from the top of a hill.

If not, then idk why Grougalorasalar chose to mention him out of all the antagonists that we got lol

But this does make sense! In a video posted by Ankama animations on YouTube, they mentioned that the antagonist for the season will be a new antagonist but someone that we already know. @geekgirles made sure to screenshot the exact moment where an employee had mentioned the antagonist of the fifth season here.

I actually really wish that Harebourg had recently been a problem for Yugo and Amalia because it would make 100% sense as to why Grougalorasalar even mentioned him in the first place.

It makes so much sense in fact THAT I MADE AN ENTIRE THEORY AS TO WHY IT'S PLAUSIBLE THAT HE'S STILL ALIVE HERE.

Taking a look at each chapter cover from the 2nd volume ✨️

Alright so from the looks of it, Yugo seems to be doing fine? Last time we saw him, he was coughing up blood for dear life with Adamaï and getting jumped by daddy Grougalorasalar. So chances are, he might just be better now.

However, let's not get our hopes up.

This shot of Yugo could either be a flashback of some conversation he had with someone, or he could have very well gotten better thanks to Grougalorasalar after all. If it's the latter, then it would explain why Yugo looks pissed. He'd learn that it was Grougalorasalar's idea to have tried poisoning him AND his wife. Knowing this, Yugo would totally be in the right to be infuriated by the dragon's killing attempt and for realizing that he might have just done all of this to cause some shit for fun (since we know that black dragons are the type to cause chaos for the hell of it).

This is probably the second part of the first chapter since the webtoon format has a way of cutting a chapter in half. We've seen this to be the case since the manga format glued the two webtoon chapters together.

So whatever Grougalorasalar is saying to Yugo and Adamaï, their problems with the poison must've been cured or, at the very least, been repressed a bit.

JULITH WILL HAVE MORE SCENES YES ‼️‼️‼️

I hope she gets to talk with Amalia in this chapter given how ironic it would be for Julith, someone who lost her lover and expected Amalia's to have met the same fate.

I never thought we'd see Dathura in the manga but omg I'm so glad she's here!! 💕💕

Given that the chapter cover doesn't show too much, I'm almost certain that she has become part of the Tree of Life in some way shape or form. So even if the royal osamodas family would've taken care of the kingdom (in their own...'special' way), then Dathura would've always been there as a guardian for the tree. She, out of everyone here, deserves to be near it at all times because not only is she a sadida demigoddess, but she's also a vessel for conserving a portion of Sadida's power which makes her overqualified to even be there and yet just as deserving.

But as much as I like her, seeing her here doesn't mean good news, and we might get to hear something from her that could potentially be far worse than the royal osamodas family actually holding any relevance.

Okay this is where shit gets too weird and random for me to actually try to guess what's going on.

Joris' face here is....weird. Like actually way too weird to think that this is a genuine face he would make. We've never seen him make that face before, and that makes me think of two possible reasons as to why he may look like that: 1) He's possessed by Grougalorasalar (since he was a vessel for him back then) or by something else entirely. 2) This is a random gag scene and he just happened to look a bit awkward like that.

Regardless of what the context could be, we can all agree that this is not an expression he'd make so easily. There has to be a reason.

Uh....This is either a dragon or a lower beast. I'm not sure who this is exactly since they don't seem to ring any bells on my end, but if anyone has any clues, it'd be really helpful. Either way, this is someone new, and I can't tell if they're on the side of Yugo, against him, or just uncaring or neutral about the entire situation.

I just don't want them to be someone as hateable as the osamodas family. I don't wanna have a weekly migraine ever again.

Hmm this is most likely a new character as well but unlike the other one, I don't think anyone has ever seen this one before.

I can't even tell if this person is male or female lol

I'm leaning more into a male ecaflip since the mouth is shaped like a curved smile which is often used for krosmoz's felines. But that is actually just a major stretch and I'm just assuming the race too. They look at bit deranged though so....I'm gonna bet they're very neutral in a dangerous way (like they could side with anyone at anytime as long as it benefits them).

We got another shot of Yugo but he seems to be looking much better here. I'm glad that the poison seems to have taken a backseat and not be a massive problem in the ass now that there's more shit to worry about (like what? Idk lol and I'm not ready for it)

ALRIGHT THIS IS THE CHAPTER I'M MOSTLY CURIOUS ABOUT ‼️‼️

I know I'm such a huge yumalia fan but you can't blame me for wondering what is up with Amalia in this shot when she looks so cute like this!! (I think she's also blushing 🥰)

She looks caught off guard and has a soft look in her eyes. Not to mention that her hair seems to be down? Which implies that she's not working right now and could be in bed or....in the shower.

I'M ASSUMING THE SHOWER TOO CUZ ANKAMA RECENTLY TWEETED A YUMALIA MEME THAT HAD SHOWER INVOLVED and Cathiane (the great wave manga artist) replied to it with a playful tone about how she was panicking about the implication!!!

When the chapter gets unlocked, I hope that it gets labeled as 'public advised' like how it did with the first chapter. So that if the label is actually there, I'LL IMMEDIATELY ASSUME THAT IT'S A YUMALIA SHOWER LOVE SCENE HSAKKSLSLSLSLZLALSLSLALALAPDPDOD9WIEOEOEP-

I just hope the 19th chapter IS a steamy one just for her hair being untied. Because according to what we've seen from the manga so far, she always puts her hair up and only lets it down when she's sleeping or getting fucked lol

Even though this may not showcase a specific character in the cover, let's not forget that the last chapter from the first volume ended us on a massive cliffhanger. From what we can tell, this is a soldier from Bonta who's stopping someone from entering the throne room (most likely) or a very equally important room. Whoever the person who got stopped by the soldier may be, they're going to be a massive problem in the third volume which will also give us another annoying cliffhanger in this current volume.
