OnS Chapter 136 Analysis - Love vs The Past
Well, a new chapter dropped. I must say that I liked it. We really are heading towards the end of the story and two sides now are on stage.
One fighting for love; the other one fighting to bring back something that is long lost.
Love can often be misunderstood in the manga story; to the point it distorts a lot, but in reality, it takes so many shapes, so many forms along giving birth to ideals.
Each character within the story is moved to do something for "love". But in this role too; the "love" for the "past" exists.
The past is a momentum that will always live in our memories; it is something that will forever be frozen; something that will not change. It's something that is part of us without defining us.
As we've seen today; the chapter starts with Yuu trying to reach the First; but given that the Progenitors want to avoid the destruction of the world much further; they were preventing Yuu from making contact with the First.
Of course, we see how Mika couldn't withstand the raw power of Urd Geales; we saw Shinya and Kureto alive and kicking once again; and finally, the main spot; the reunion between Shikama and Yuu.
Tumblr media
Shikama is aware that Yuu has all his memories back ever since he detected an anomaly along the interaction with the corpse of Mikaela. Of course, whenever Shikama knows the soul of his son is alive and kicking, it's up to interpretation. Though, it is clear he knows it exists.
Eventually we see how Shikama is going to bestow Yuu his knowledge and power
Tumblr media
But before he could give away his power to Yuu; Shinoa interferred with the possibility.
Leading to our possible future battle between Shinoa and Yuu.
Tumblr media
Two ideals being carried away within the story. And yet, at the same time they connect through the main theme. "Love."
Tumblr media
And no, it's not "romantic love ". The "love" or 愛 which is not the same as other interpretations of love itself. Just "ai". A love that takes so many shapes.
Let's begin with the real analysis here.
Yuu isn't exactly fighting for humanity nor his friends, nor his family. Given that the "regression" process he made to recall his whole life; he saw how his life originated alongside being the son of the First.
Given that, he is actually aiming for the task of "saving" but given that "love" is playing its role as well. It is the love he has deep down for his father that he is doing everything to bring back what his father cherished in the past. Which is something reflected as well when he was the angel Mikaela. Taking his life so divine punishment wouldn't fall upon his father.
Tumblr media
Shikama did love his angels, his followers and he did blame himself for the punishment that fell upon them. But given God's nature; it was normal that the punishment fell upon those angels given that they no longer praised for God.
Though; one thing Shikama and Yuu have in common, is the attachment to the past. It is the very fact that the past for them is something that should have prevailed instead of changing. What do I mean?
To Shikama, the Progenitors he chose, despite being reincarnations of those angels that followed him once; are not his angels.
And this is highly visible once Ashera asks Shikama what he should do back in chapter 117.
Tumblr media
To his eyes, Shikama's sired progenitors were just tools given that to him; they are shadows of who they were once, but to those progenitors; even if they have acknowledged that they are reincarnations; they made a choice.
Tumblr media
They chose to follow up their own path. And as they've stated back in chapter 114; their last and final task is to protect the world they live in. Meaning avoiding the resurrection of the angel Mikaela.
But now, why do I say Shikama and Yuu have one thing in common?
Yuu is a character that despite living endlessly; along having a constant memory reset until now that he gathered all his memories; he's done one thing to no end. And that is living in the past.
True, there are scars that take its time to heal from the past; some are very difficult nonetheless; he chose to live in such past. When he had a chance to make a choice; that choice was no longer centered in the present; it began to lead further astray to the past.
But then, what's the point of those promises?
Given how everything has turned. Those promises are something that can't be fulfilled. What do I mean?
In order to revive the angels from long ago; sacrifices must be made. But here's another thing that it is being dismissed. What could it be?
The absolute lack of appreciation to life.
Yuu might state he aims to save everyone; even to Ashera who at the end understood that there are limits to life. He loved and embraced he managed to get his sister back; but the cost for that was making her suffer for eternity; nevertheless, the lives both had, those kind of experiences they managed to live had their moments of bliss; bringing back entities that perished long ago, is discarting the moments experienced, the moments lived along the emotions that were carried through a lifetime.
But now, there is an opposite force here. And that force is no other than. "Love."
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Many might consider that Shinoa's love is "obssession, madness like Mahiru's love" but no. This is actually wrong.
Back when she stated she would kill Mikaela; there was a massive misconception of this which chapter 133 explained a lot.
Shinoa thought Yuu was being possessed by Mikaela at that time hence her retoric; but given that she saw first hand that Yuu had fooled them; she understood that Yuu was doing everything on his own will. And let's not forget that Yuu might be dumb, but not clueless or ignorant.
Shinoa's form of "love" is not something that came out of nothing; it's something that began taking shape by her own; it began from curiosity, turning into uncertainty, then transforming into caring, along developing feelings for a special someone. Such feelings for her were seen as something hideous or bad; but at the end, she understood they weren't bad, nevertheless, she never admitted them until or rather never accepted them truthfully until chapter 133.
Chapter 133 was a very reflexive chapter given that it gave Shinoa resolution; a resolution as to why it is the reason she was standing still in the very end of the world.
Shinoa's love is not centered to one person, but rather; it is centered to the very core family she gained through her journey which lead to this.
Tumblr media
Her battle and her resolution is directed to the very family that has stood with her and has followed her through the long journey she has taken so far. Hence why; she is standing along her squad just like how the vampires did; how they are going to live. Not by a decree of an entity, not by a decree of her sister and Guren nor the vampires; but rather, taking their own path until the very end.
Hence why Shikama states that her love is self centered, which is no different from him. He centered his love to his angels; Shinoa is centering her love to those who exist in the present. Along letting them return to their normality before the world ended; given that the end of the world, the events that took place before they were born, were all spiderwebs made by the First.
This is the first time they are fighting for their own.
What do you think it'll happen next?
Let me know!

I miss the time when the story was simple and understandable 🤚😔
like :
- I don't understand anything about Shikama Doji
- I don't know what Yuu and Mika want to do right now
- Ferid?? What the fuck are you doing and what do you want
- I'm a little proud of Shinoa so it's okay
- Shinya and Kureto are still kidnapped?
- Guren and Mahiru-no-Yo? I think he's taking his best nap, wake up Guren you have humanity to bring back and you must save your family (again and again)
- Is Seishiro still chained to a bed?
- Where are Shigure, Sayuri, Mito and Norito?? and Narumi?
- When is this final fucking battle?
- WHEN WILL THE HAPPY ENDING BE???
☠☠☠
Well we saw Crowley at least even after his death

İ dont really care abaout any ship in ons but i love Mahiru a lot. Soo.. any Mahiru headcanons? Or Mahiru Au's you love if you have any?
You dont have to answer ofc. Sorry for poorly use of English and grammer.
OH. MY. STARS. YOU'RE ASKING ME??? THE ULTIMATE MAHIRU LVR??? FOR HEADCANONS??? i love you now you have to deal with me!! and there is no problem with your english, it's very good actually :)
Soooo, Mahiru headcanons
I feel like she would be a very depressed office worker, who dreads going to work every single day. Of course, her pay is good, since she works for her family; but she has plans to ditch her job once she gets married (Japanese custom)
Highlight of her day at the office is seeing Guren who works under her dad
She would probably bully people on the internet LMFAO "you should KYS NOW"
Hardcore feminist, sprayed mace in the eyes of an officer and ran for it at a protest
She definitely has gotten a DUI don't ask
She probably drags Guren and Shinya out to the mall every saturday because Guren likes to sleep in, while Shinya has nothing else to do except for be with Kureto (who doesn't seem to be interested in spending time with him; i find that he would be more consumed in work)
Worked part time as a model in high school and early college, made a shit ton of money because Mahiru is absolutely gorgeous
Secretly scheming against her family's company, ooh-la-la
Literally just wants to get married and settle down so that she doesn't have to suffer at work
Mahiru is bisexual, loving of those who love her
She 10000% listens to hyperpop (i feel like shes hyperfeminine) but she would also like rock
She loves office parties, she's the life of it; especially when Tenri isn't around
She can hold her liquor very well (Unlike Guren, who would get buzzed under 3 sips)
Moved out of the Hiiragi House when she turned 24, lives with Guren in his apartment
They are very loving to each other
Shinya is her family friend, someone she can trust completely, she is also fond of Shinoa and feels bad for how cold she was towards her during childhood
Probably shows up when Shinoa gets in trouble at school
"She didn't do anything. Don't waste my time again." "Y-Yes, Hiiragi-sama!"
Thank you for the ask, sorry if it is a lot to read, hahaha~

I just love this panel
Tumblr media
how they hold hands in the elevator
I wonder what it would be like if Shinoa remembered all those moments 8 years ago with Guren and his team
I just like this duo, I hope Team Shinoa can team up again with Guren and Mahiru!

Something that really bothers me about Guren in general is the way he cares nothing about himself like at all for example how he literary offered his body to Mito for sex if this can make her feel better on Wrat19 volume 1 chapter 3
Tumblr media
And then we had Mahiru getting angry and sad over this because she finally could completely understand that the night Guren had sex with her was all to comfort her and wasn't actually because he loved her or all (even on Catastrophe at 16 novels Guren clearly said after that if Mahiru feels better which clearly shows he just wanted to comfort her and didn't sleep with her cause he loved her but sounds Mahiru didn't want to accept it that time but then later when Guren did the exact same back to Mito she finally gave up and accepted that) and yes it bothers me because it shows us how much Guren never and I mean it never cares about himself a bit, he clearly shows us that he never loved himself and always lived for the others sake till now even before Catastrophe he showed us how much he doesn't like himself by sleeping with Mahiru because who really and literary offeres his body to someone's else only to can comfort? Till now the Guren we saw was a type of man who never cared about himself and even as a 5 years old kid he wanted to be strong so can protect the ones he loved not anything back for himself (remember when in Catastrophe at 16 novel 1 chapter 1, he told Sayuri and Shigure that this is the master who should protect the servants and not them?) and I think in this case he and Yuu are both exactly the same: they both never loved themselves and all they want is to be loved by the others.
And well this is sad yes this is sad because it is far behind being normal, they both traumized and suffered to the point they care nothing about themselves like can we remember chapter 110 and how Shinoa asked Yuu if she tell him she doesn't feel well then will he pick her up and then Yuu did that without hestination?
Tumblr media
As if someday someone will ask him for another level of closeness then he will accept it easily cause all he wants is them to be safe and comfort them however he can no matter what even if it means to offer his body and oh this is too sick to see both Guren and Yuu like this I hope they both can learn to love themselves more and that they are both important their lives ARE important their lives are NOT miserable ones so if they'll die then that's fine and all...
And I think this is one of the most important goals of this story that MUST happen eventually
