D.Gray-man Chapter 225 Discussion

  • #2
Well I agree with the pacing issue to some extend.

With the way Johnny all of a sudden being able to easily help Allen return it did feel kinda rushed/forced, but not too bad overall. People complain that nothing happened story-wise and then they complain that Allen returned to fast/easy...

Yeah Nea is a threat, but he is not gone and he will come back. I'm pretty sure Hoshino just wanted to end this encounter to move on to the next arc (which is what a lot of people here seem to want) so I don't mind that friendship power thing too much (It is a bit stupid tho, and Johnny being an annoying character anyway does not help it.)

So I don't think there is any reason to get too mad at the chapter or at people who are okay with the way things turned out

...Hooh Boy...finally new chapter but what? Wonder what Nea meant by Resurrected From...and why did Joyd seem shaken by it.



And JOHNNY!!! XD I KNEW HE WOULD BE THE 1 GTE ALLEN TO WAKE UP!!!! REALLY NICE CHAPTER

Nice art as always, but useless chapter in terms of story progression.



I mean, this comes after 6 long months, and this is what happens? Power of bonds, friendship, love, whatever it is, and then Allen comes back... Yeah great thanks... And Nea does not like Tyki, yep so important point...



These 34 pages could have been used to go to the mansion from the previous chapters for example? Idk I just want sth faster and more about the main plot.

*rolls eyes* you shouldnt expect every chapter to be story rich, besides how fast-paced and weird would it feel if that was the case? hoshinos pace is fine as it is, we are just unlucky that we get max 4 chapters per year, but thats enough for me. i like this pace and i wouldnt want hoshino to pace it up.

What a beautiful way for Allen to return.



Indeed, the artwork is great as always. I'm hoping D Gray Man will be getting more chapters this year.



The word you're looking for is rushed not beautiful. All it takes is for magic Johnny sue to call his name and boom the great threat that was going to erase Allen forever is erased? Please.



Other than the johnny part the chapter was pretty solid.

i dont see anything wrong with that, allen wanted his body back and he got it back. nea fainted because allen took his body back, thats how it is



----



i seriously dont get you guys, i mean we finally get a new chapter and you are complaining about the pace? the pace is fine, nothing is rushed and nothing is dragged out - hoshinos pace was always like that. if you re-read the chapters you will notice that. and i bet hoshino doesnt plan to keep this quarterly release either, but she wants her injury to get better and she also wants to keep drawing d gray man. at least be a bit happy that she doesnt go full hiatus until her injury is healed



Oh cool you want something so you're supposed to get it? Wow that's so easy. Alright then all Allen needs to do is want the Earl to die of a heart attack and boom the war's over! Genius.



Neah is supposed to be a threat that is almost impossible to avoid and all it takes is some wimpy nerd calling Allen's name to push him back. If you don't see the pacing issue there then there is NO helping you.

if you get so triggered by everything, why are you reading it then? im not trying to come off as mean, but every comment that is written by you is very passive-aggressive

there is no pacing issue, it was made clear since kanda and johnny searched for allen, that johnny is going to be an important character in this arc. allen loves his friends and would do everything to protect them.. and seeing someone who would do the same for him made him flustered, it were these precious words from johnny that helped him.. or more like, it helped allen because johnny kept his promise

yeah, nea is(/was supposed to be) a threat. but have you forgotten that nea used allens innocence? have you forgotten that when allen used his innocence, he got sleepy? i hope you didnt

I think it's unlikely for Nea to be able to use both powers from both sides, as it'd shown in the chapter. Nea couldn't get it working, yet alone for it to form. But it is a possibility in future chapters.



For your question as to "the way he reincarnated" I believe it'd had to do something with the previous generation of Noahs, where Nea was in his own body. Alive and all.



I may be wrong about this. But I think he hated Noahs more than humans. Not sure, just a theory I got. Judging the way he spoked about them.



im pretty sure thats the case. going by the way joyd reacted to nea.. i think nea was treated.. kinda differently. maybe he was an outcast and joyd hated him

anyways cant wait for the next chapter tbh, i would love to see allen and tyki talking to each other again

there a lot questionon my mind like who is allen actually?



why he give his body to Nea?



how allen lost his arm?



where is nea body?



cause nea said earl consumed him, did earl really eat nea body?.



also,clown crown sword is look like the one earl have but in opposite color also it look like the one nea bring whe he dying. dont you think allen innocence"know" that allen is 14?.



why hevlaska, the box keeper" doesnt know that allen was 14 when she check his body?.



it seem that other than earl and road kamelot, othe noah doesnt know who is nea except the fact that he betray earl and kill them all. and also, the earl cloth seem have own thought that it thing can made mana insane and took over his body? still wandering who is the one that buried and the one who allen called with dark matter when he first encounter earl. is it mana wearing earl cloth or the empty earl cloth?.



and black order seem corrupt. this manga indeed very confusing.i do wanna know who the first exorcist who beat earl millenium? dont say that it was "real allen".i think there will be a plot twist in the future.

Like many people, I barely remember the details but... Since when is Johnny close friends with Allen? I would have accepted this friendship bullsh*t if it were Lenalee or Lavi.



Damn, I want to know what Tyki and Nea's connection is!

It is true that some fightq would be nice. However I don't see how this could be possible at this point. The Noahs have no reason to fight before the final battle.



They only fought in the ark before they were bored and thought it would seem fun to play a little game with the exorcists but now they don't have time to chill, they have a serious family issue with the earl and Nea and they have to do something about it. + They have to take care of Apo and the heart.



However I think there will be an arc in Central, and there might be some fights there.

Hum? Allen's current growth  is normal. Though I think Nea's power may be involved with Allen 's rejuvenation





Also, I think the helix of life is not a person but something that is in every living being. It may very well be DNA , maybe the first discoveries about it as Past Allen seemed to be some kind of scientist.

Nea was trying to use the Innocence but Johnny ruined everything.

What a gorgeous and delicious artwork chapter!!!xD

Earl and Wisely finally left.

Tyki stay and trying to invite Nea but got rejected badly.

It seems like the reincarnated form about Tyki that Nea mentioned is most likely the one from Noah Ark's (black form).

Fiddler seems to be a funny Noah. LOL hard when he say he want to go eat already!!! So carefree!!!xD

Nea's trying to activate Innocence, but before that happen, Johnny called Allen.

Allen's back for now!!! Johnny's the bro here!!!xD



It seems like this arc mostly likely conclude the next chapter or two more chapter at most. The next arc most likely going to the Mansion mentioned a few chapters ago.
