    ... remember that good people like Elliot, Ashley and Good Tom are rare.

    Being good to the degree that they are is rare, but being good enough to not want to go on a highly destructive rampage is probably common enough.


  2. The IVF argument (or any similar "came from a single fertilized ovum" argument) seems too much like having them be twins in every way that matters genetically and philosophically, while making them "technically not twins". I sincerely doubt that Dan is going to have the plot be hung up on such a technicality. Susan and Diane are connected, but not in the normal identical-twins sense.

    Yet the Whale, Disco Wizard and Pandora all got through.

    Well, in Pandora's case, it's already been established that Immortals have magical stealth that cannot be penetrated even by other Immortals, so I wouldn't expect any magic-sensing alarms to detect her via magical signature.

    Didn't needed to be infant, technically ... we are not sure how old was Diane when adopted (sure, less than six). And if there was some werewolf ...

     

    Since Diane did not know prior to age six that she was adopted, then it almost certainly happened before her earliest conscious memories--probably by the time she was three, at oldest.

    Neither do I, but why was Jerry at that party? Shouldn't he have been watching Susan? Jerry the Next Generation (JNG) may not have the power or smarts of Jerry the Original Version (JOV) but he's still an Immortal with powers and abilities far beyond those of (most) mortal men. Also smarts. My money still goes on JOV being right about the "long lost sister."

    I thought that Jerry was at the party to watch Nanase. He does owe part of his promise to her after all. Also, if he was aware of who not-Tengu was, then he would have specific reason to be watching over Nanase and her friends.

    Like her father had an affair with another woman(except the one Susan caught him with) and had a child with her? Could be possible.

    If Edward's information is correct, yes. However, it does seem to be a bit of a coincidence for them to be born twenty minutes apart if they are not twins.

    This feels like a massive red herring.

    There's definitely far too much setup here for there not to be some cause behind their near-identical-ness, whether it be blood relation, parallel world shenanigans, or what-have-you.

    I am refraining from further speculation at this point. I will say that I really like panel four. It appeals to my Buffy fan side.

    I love the back-to-back poses and expressions in the first and fourth panels.


  7. Edward is still skeptical about Tedd having encountered the Whales, so it's probable that none of Edward's magical security methods were able to detect them during or after their contact with Tedd. It is probable that the Whales exist on one of the astral levels, and thus are undetectable short of "scanning the entire spectrum" of astral levels in the vicinity (like detecting a radio transmission by scanning the whole radio spectrum).

    3) Unclog the clog ... which she explicitly said she CANT do herself.

    Talking about what Sarah will tell, though ... it IS possible Pandora will tell her to take Tedd and Grace with her and just be careful about what she tells them. Just because she talks to Sarah doesn't mean she assumes Sarah will do it alone.

     

    It looks to me like Pandora plans to tell Sarah what must be done to break the energy clog.

    Also, I think that the Frozen reference is deliberate, given what Pandora's current costume resembles.

    Perhaps Pandora's plan was to kill Abraham all along. Perhaps the reason no one can destroy the Dewichery Diamond is that it's linked to Abraham--destroy one, destroy the other.

    That's a fascinating idea about the Diamond--and would fit completely with Abraham's boneheadedness. Given the attitude that he's taken about deliberately extending his existence in order to stop the creations of the Diamond, I would not at all be surprised if he would consider suicide if doing so would actually ensure the Diamond's destruction.

    Would it not be odd if everyone in the EGS-verse had an evil twin/twin of opposite personality?

    (Do we also know what the citizens of Moperville are called?)

    Half of the people would BE the Evil Twins, and thus they would have Good Twins.

    Also, "villian" originally meant anybody who lived in a village (as opposed to "civilized" city folk).

    I would like to see Ashley get the "magical empathy" spell, myself.


  11. Yes, Grace's character has moved on beyond its early characterization of "cripplingly naive/sheltered". Having her go to school and work and generally socializing outside of her circle of friends has done a great deal toward helping her catch up on nearly eighteen years of social isolation.

    Welp. I'm on the bandwagon to believe that Pandora is the Will of Magic, or a part of it. Her previous incarnation has memories of the last system reset, and the fact that there have been no other resets since she's been in her current incarnation is just too large a coincidence to overlook for me. Granted, it's flawed, in that she supposedly was there during the "incident", but that could be a false memory planted by her previous self to cover her tracks in some kind of "I'm not allowed to know that I'm the will of magic"-type, Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya-esque plot.

    Or I'm overanalyzing.

    Nah, Pandora can't be Haruhi. There's Aliens, Mages/Espers, and people from other universes, but no Time Travelers.
