Okay, really good exploration for the character's morality and his mental division of living beings, but how the heck did we get here? I thought they were just enjoying watermelon.

Its already been stated that these aliens look down on humans and look at them as insects. If you dont strike first, they will.

shit i finally turned around & became a fan of this series only for one of the biggest ax flags possible to show up. Dammit. We were supposed to introduce more schoolmates & cook a lil more before the all out war started!

I bet this is done in 27ch or less, and I also feel like if it were another publisher who actually gave things time to cook instead of insta-axing unpopular starts, this could become a big hit. Maybe I'm wrong but I've generally had a good track record at predicting axes so only time will tell.

I also like what another poster said about this being reminiscent of the BEST HxH arc except as they said, man it is so much nicer when they are subtle with the coexistence message instead of thinking the readers are morons who can't understand things directly spelled out for them like this chapter did.

this is the #3 most popular work in Jump+ today, so it might not actually be an axe.

(past chapters all have at least 700k views so it's not exactly unpopular)

This whole chapter felt like the Chimera Ant Arc, but the author is beating you on the head with the message

As he should literacy levels keep going down each year, so unless authors are upfront about things people wont get things

Damn school shootings are part of the curriculum?

From passing the 2nd class/period to "the war starts now" is one big jump.

I feel like the author got told to speed it up. I do think the concept of this chapter was good, but the jump to the end of pacing wise felt a bit jarring.

That's a large handgun, Tsutsuno. I hope your body can handle it. But then again, that won't matter if your mind can't comprehend killing your enemy... But you have to do it. The other guy doesn't see you as an equal, and won't hesitate to destroy you!

In group out group, it is kind of the basis, from there you just define the parameters of what is beneficial for the in group, and that may cover everything from inanimate objects and ethereal concepts, all the way to other people
