UQ Holder Thread

Demon Queen seems to be 'depressed and killing everything'

At least those that are attacking her.

Oh my, so many reference drops!

Ayaka shows up! And... are those Setsuna and Konoka's granddaughters??

Well it looks like Ayaka is still putting her pactio to good use.

Yea, I didn't expect to see her and it, it was a nice callback.

Ayaka's granddaughter (I presume she is) definitely inherited the noblewoman's laugh from her.

Honoka and Isana? Clever names.

One thing I like- Touta learns fast, but this series isn't doing any of that "This technique normally takes years to learn, but X learned it in one week! Incredible!" stuff.

This is, "This training normally takes a decade, you've done it for 8 months.... so I'll give you a pass but you're definitely incomplete because, hey, you spent 1/10th the time."

I'm really liking this pseudo-reintroduction of old characters too in the form of the 'new generation.' Makes me wonder if other grandchildren from the other former 3-A students will eventually appear, make a UQ Holder version of 3-A for Touta.

Q99: likewise. It's almost funny really how little of a crap the characters give about Touta's learning curve.

Maybe so.

That's the big difference between his and Negi's training. Touta's not exactly getting props for his work while Negi was constantly showered with praise and encouragement.

Only time will tell, I suppose.

I think that's mainly because given that Touta is essentially Negi's clone, it's pretty much expected by those in the know for him to be picking things up at a fast rate.

Haha, oh wow, that escalated quickly 😄

I had the feeling she would smack Touta around but it was still pretty cool how she looked like a fighting game character pulling off a SDM. That last panel, though, shows she does remember Touta.

Q99: sure did. Props to Touta.

Markness: agreed. Makes me wonder how this will impact their relationship in the future and in what other way he may have unintentionally altered the past.

Things are really continuing to go fast on the relationship fronts- I did not expect Kuromaru to make a move so soon! Or, uh, at all.

Took a bit of a break from this series though it seems that these relationship developments have been progressing really suddenly.

Yea, it's like, minor element with some teasing then, boom! Marriage proposals, attempted dates, love confessions!

Wasn't Ayako supposed to be around somewhere or did she just leave Eva to sort of look after her granddaughter?

She said she was going to meet with Eva. They may have talked behind the scenes.

Still, it's kind of odd that we haven't seen a hint of their meeting.

Oh, so that's why Kuromaru's not fighting as well, needs to adjust their chi...
