Enya has proven to us that she has now taken up the torch of vengeance, she felt the suffering of her ‘noble’ son and wants to make everyone who did such an act pay. Revenge isn’t the way folks, just look at her suffering as she cries and… hurts an animal. Okay that was Araki’s way of telling us we don’t have to care about her. However, I do wonder if she earnestly thought her son was honest and noble as she assumed he had to be tricked when in reality it was the other way around. She has started to move.
At first I was thinking about how Polnareff would totally be the one hitting up any ladies as Nena got a ride with the gang to Varanashi. But then I thought, with her being supposedly 16, maybe it’s not exactly him flirting with her but seeing his little sister in her. Being protective of her and telling her to watch out for men like Hol Horse who may prey on her gave me this vibe. I’d like it if she was manipulated into this and Polnareff helped clear her head. Either reasoning is a good reason to enjoy our boy some more though. But all is not well, this is a tactic to stay close to her stand as she needs to keep it strong and the Empress is known for slow killing. It’s a proper assassination! Harsh training and cremation taking their attention, Jotaro showed worry for his grandpa and Joseph almost had the Empress removed surgically before getting into a fight with it.
The little flesh baby sliced his prosthetic finger off and it made me laugh. Once every ten chapters or so he has to get his prosthetic hand sliced up, as if that was the true intention of giving him such a hand. It’s like he’s Buggy the clown or something. Star Platinum stole a finger, Polnareff then stabbed through the hand, and now this. Imagine if his hand was real, although I suppose he’d have lost it by now if it was.
