They’re sexless but it seems that they culturally adopted masculine gender presentation hence calling each other brother and whatnot. (Heh they’re like the opposite of the crystal gems from Steven Universe.) But it seems a few of them such as White Chain and Juggernaut Star do more feminine presentation which isn’t approved of by their culture in general. And now white chain has even gone as far as acquiring a biological sex which the majority of other angels will probably find heretical. In general they seem to believe that the trappings of the flesh such as sex and biology is supposed to be beneath them. Biology is what makes mortals weak and fragile which is why they disapproved of White Chain’s angelic form growing more and more humanoid. And yeah now she’s gone and actually clad herself in a meat body…
I would go so far as to say that angels are in fact genderless, many of them aren’t even humanoid, the majority of them, if I am correct in my observations.
I think it would be more succinct to say that some of them have humanoid forms, and since the male pronouns are genderless in english (as opposed to gendered in the romantic languages and german) one could even say that the only reason they appear “male” is that they are blank, blocky, featureless, genderless slabs, and therefore equal in the esteem of human eyes to males, who are given similar levels of respect or care.
Human culture in the real world is extremely gynocentric, stemming from our reproduction system, and we associate blank muscular slabs with male, as they only serve to fight, (and work, build, slave away, toil) whereas the only things called female, boats, are really only that because they have curves, and flotation devices. (Yes that is a joke, don’t @me about the literal origin of why boats are female)
So, it would be most accurate to say that while some angels are humanoid, and the language is monogendered, fewer angels still actually care about gender expression or identity, and it isn’t so much that 89 white chain something vengeance is bucking the trend by being *female* it’s more about bucking the trend in caring about gender at all, something their species doesn’t have, since they don’t reproduce.
It is clearly stated in world that angels are reborn, memories intact, and evolve through time by learning from their lives, they do not reproduce.
It has also been stated that 89 white chain has the most deaths, and is the most badass in following da wei. It has been remarked upon that of all the angels, she would be the most close to the discovery of knowledge that the purpose of their immortality is for, and I choose to interpret that as she is the one closest to manifesting a physical body without needing human craftsmanship, and her gender in that physical body is merely a side effect of her personal self image.
We don’t even know yet if this physical body means she can die like regular people and be reborn blank, or if she would have to manifest a new body, or if she can reproduce, we don’t know. She could be smooth like a Ken doll for all we know.
The unanswered questions far outnumber the answered ones, and in universe explanations can only go so far when they only talk about certain topics.
I always assumed the angels took masculine pronouns because they were crafted from the cold white flame of the god UN, whom is the ‘male’ equivalent of the goddess YIS (she bore the black flame that humans and demons were made from).
I figured she became biological female because she cast away her stone shell and passed through a human, immortal demiurge as he is.
The other angels could recraft themselves, but they’d have to pass through something besides rock when they remanifest.
Male pronouns are not genderless in English. They are male. Human culture is not “gynocentric”. Men are not reduced to “fighting and slaving” or to only their bodies; they hold the majority of positions of power and influence across the world. Women are overwhelmingly more likely to be treated as possessions and objects of use only for physical shape and reproductive capability.
This one cordially suggests that the wise seeker does not attempt to recraft a clear allegory for patriarchal religious authorities and traditions into the perfidious ravings of the Incel Knights.
Thank you 21 Reason. I started laughing halfway through the above one’s ill-intended rant. The dangers of overestimating one’s intelligence relative to others’.
They aren’t NOW but it’s actually remarkable how ignorant we generally are of how radically different English has become since the Anglo-Norman compromise. This is a pidgin language born from the Norman invasion. For 500 years after that, 1070-1570, neither the native Anglish nor the imposed Norman French was able to fully dominate & push one or the other fully out. Instead, both sides half accidentally & very reluctantly forced one another into a mixed middle full of highly inconsistent grammar. It’s partly why I’ve been opposed to so many new pronouns, this language is stupid enough as it is. If pronouns can’t do their job & SIMPLIFY language, then it would be better to only use proper nouns. It could be argued that the complexities of gender only make the point that pronouns are obsolete. It would be challenging to drop them, but the developing English language did, in another sense. Both Olde Anglish & Norman French were GENDERED languages like modern French & Spanish, but often called the same things DIFFERENT gender prefixes, for example , Anglish said apples were “masculine” while Normans said they are feminine. This was so fantastically confusing that, in a remarkably organic tactic agreement, over two generations in the 14th century, everyone agreed to just STOP, cold turkey, using genders for every tool & critter.
By Shakespeare, Saksper, Shokspeer, Shakspear, etcetera, his time, they were still working out the bugs. He had different teachers all telling him to spell his name in these different ways! The the end goal was to refine & standardized the rules of the new language into a fully consistent grammar, but then the printing press was invented which massively slowed down this process. It still continued but with much more difficulty. Since the invention of audio recording? It’s become nearly impossible impossible to refine further or even organically evolve at all apart from some fashionable slang. It’s largely fixed where it was 100 years ago, although television has been slowly syncing accents into what I call “American Neutral” & “British Neutral”, & so on. How well regional accents survive is increasingly a question of how much children have sat in front of the television watching national television or if they watch is seldom & mostly local television.
Anyway, following the American Revolution, a weird movement arose to make American English more deliberately distinct from English English. This has had a few lasting effects, including the weird spelling of the old phrase “All Correct” as “Oll Korrect” which was shortened to “OK” which became Its own word, “okay”.
Another effect was to more strongly engender the word “man” as exclusively male, which had previously been more neutral depending on context. “Mankind” up to then had, indeed, always automatically included women. Until the 1950s, many old fashioned types continued to do so. The feminist reaction should have been a demand to go back to the olde ways, not take the new ways so seriously!
Actually while its true many if people in power are men, thier point is no less valid. Men are often viewed as disposable/expendable just as women are viewed as trading tools. Men are easier to replace and as such are in fact more likely to die. Hence the saying “Save the women and children first”. This is due both to cultural and to the fact that if half of the men in the world died today. You could replace us, but the same is not said for women. It’s not the “patriarchy” and more of genetics.
And for you claim we were not reduced to fighting the draft/conscription would like to have a word with you. I cant speak for other countries but in the US if your a man and they make a call to war you have to agree to become a citizen. Also, unless abbadon says it’s an allegory for that I’d suggest you not claim it is.
Alas, I fear you have fallen under the sway of the idea that ‘as it is now, it has always been,’ as well as a rather unlearned idea of how it is now.
The cry “women and children first!” arose with the HMS Birkenhead in 1852, which was a ship of a male-dominated empire in which females were relegated to roles in which it was generally difficult for them to own property or exercise power. Even a scanting attempt to research the names of survivors of shipwrecks prior will show that female names were generally, if you will excuse an unintended irony, in the minority…When life boats were few they rarely were able to make headway in the brawl/rush to get on them…And if you think that’s ‘unusual’ or ‘ridiculous’ then you need to look up reports of people in lifeboats beating away people trying to climb aboard for fear of capsizing. Similarly, most cultures did not believe that women could be effective warriors. In our modern, pull-trigger, push-button form of warfare gender is less important…And in the U.S., I am sad to tell you that even today, women are still heavily discriminated against and suffer far more hazing and abuse in the armed forces, and far more likely to suffer sexual abuse if captured.
As for what Abaddon has crafted here, you are free to misinterpret it as you will, but kindly do not attempt to bring real history to your support, as you will find it a thin foundation for the platform you are trying to build.
Yet your ignore what I said about a few men being in power most are treated as nothing, which was my point.
And it was not I who first brought real world to this, but the person before me, mayhaps you should read and respond to all parts instead of a single one.
Women are generally treated as no less disposable than men, and their skills, thoughts and contributions are generally valued less and are overlooked more often.
Key of Kings or no, if the previous 24 hours taught us anything, it’s that Allison isn’t up to beating one Demiurge in a fight. Let alone getting caught in the middle of the whole set throwing down.
In times like these, it’s best to let the elephants hash things out between themselves. The ground may suffer, but the mice may yet get away.
Yeah, that’s the Key deal. Whatever she Wills, happens. Her will however is tempered by a restrained and doubtful self-image. When the bomb went off, she poured all her will into defense without thinking, without letting the restraint get in her way, and so it worked.
But now the only thing she’s confident in is the voidhopping ability of the key.
“You have STILL got on a—Oh my GOD, ALLISON is that a fucking DEMON??! And why is she NAKED?? And why is SHE bleeding?!? And who the FUUUUCK is this GIANT?! ALLISON!!!”
“Ho there! I am 10 Vigilant Gaze Pierces the Horizon, and—”
“No! Shut UP! UGH! Allison this violates the roommate agreement ALL OVER!!!”
“OK, we gave you a pass on the bindi in your forehead, and Suzy SWEARS she saw you eat a frog or something when you were in the bathroom, but we’re gonna get banned from campus for this shit!”
Turning gates on and off is the most basic, surface level functionality of the keys. The master key can turn them all off (perhaps permanently?). The demiurges can teleport without the gates, but their armies can’t.
In fact I’d speculate the reason Earth may have been untouched by the multiverse could be because Zoss took it off the grid when he decided or determined his successor would be born there.
42 Fragments the Universe Beyond All Reintegration
My reading is that Earth was next on Mottom’s list for despoilment after Mykos, given that their gates in the void are next to each other and there was an army of devils camped at the Earth gate waiting for it to open. Only Mottom or Zoss/Allison could unlock the gate and any other Demiurge porting in would restart the war, so nobody’s gone there for a while.
There’s no evidence for Zoss being able to lock the gates against the demiurges’ keys, although it’s an interesting idea. However, he did manage to lock his tower on Throne so the Seven couldn’t get in.
Also: where is the side of Earth’s gate on Earth? A 200-metre tuning fork is hard to miss. What do the ignorant Earthlings think it is, and what have they tried to do with it?
Or she could go Home with all the crew and we get to meet her parents, and watch them meeting their new daughter-in-law. Extra Lolz if Mr & Mrs. Ruth turn out to be devout christians.
The way the glow from Allison’s key almost-but-not-quite lines up with the panel borders feels like something of a missed opportunity for it to BE the panel borders.
I am reminded of the phylosophy once employed by a warrior wielding the power of sunlight and far sight. You can be tough and brave but if the situation is far beyond you: RUN!
Somebody stop them! They’ve got control of the narrative perspective, if they leave now they’ll take our POV with them and we won’t get to see Maya finally do something.
Brave Pree Allison ran away
Bravely ran away away
When danger reared its ugly head
She bravely turned her tail and fled
Yes, brave Pree Allison turned about
And gallantly she chickened out
Vigilant Gays seems to have joined the party! Yay!
Isn’t the angel named Vigilant Gaze ? LUL
Grandpa Vigilant Gaze recognizes that White chain is female so trans rights I suppose.
So Vigilant Gays…
Its a pretty lame pun lets be real here.
Suddenly, the possibility that we may call the group Vigilant Gays has become… enticing.
You have my lock, stock and barrel
AND MY AXE!
I’m here for this.
Waaaay better usage of it, I like it
Discretion is the better part of valor, time o retreat, reorganise and recuperate.
Weren’t angels genderless?
They’re sexless but it seems that they culturally adopted masculine gender presentation hence calling each other brother and whatnot. (Heh they’re like the opposite of the crystal gems from Steven Universe.)

And now white chain has even gone as far as acquiring a biological sex which the majority of other angels will probably find heretical. In general they seem to believe that the trappings of the flesh such as sex and biology is supposed to be beneath them. Biology is what makes mortals weak and fragile which is why they disapproved of White Chain’s angelic form growing more and more humanoid. And yeah now she’s gone and actually clad herself in a meat body…
Angelic Choir: “You’re wearing meat! That’s disgusting!”
Grandpa Gaze: “You do you. As long as you’re still upholding justice and the law then you’re alright.”

I too would make a calculated and deliberate retreat.
In a turn of events,
every place they retreat to is now on fire.
Yeah, less a question of *whether* to retreat, and more a question of *how far*.
Yeyeye awesome update!!
Pssst All All -> All Are
We all type when tired sometimessss
Or “are all” also works.
Are they leaving without Zaid? Was that not the whole purpose is coming to the tournament?
Zaid can catch the next Lightning. I think it arrives ten minutes to midnight.
Maybe with, maybe without. But it may be more germane to speculate on what happens when the reason for the fight leaves the fight.
…and if she can.
Abbadon says he was so tired that he forgot to draw Zaid. It’ll be fixed on the 16th.
Gaze has Zaid tucked into one of the folds of his cloak.
That, or Princess has him slung over her shoulder like a sack of rice.
FUCK ZAID ALL MY HOMIES HATE ZAID
[Bolo Voice] “I know, riiiiight?”
Zaid is right there
Yea, last night, he wasn’t.
THIS COMMENT IS NOW DEFUNCT
Reach heaven through strategic withdrawal.

In times like these, it’s best to let the elephants hash things out between themselves. The ground may suffer, but the mice may yet get away.
However she CAN, it seems, stop an atomic bomb from speaking her name. Maybe the solution is not-thinking.
She does her greatest feats when she forgets that she can’t do them. This is true of all thinking creatures, from demiurges to dogs.
Yeah, that’s the Key deal. Whatever she Wills, happens. Her will however is tempered by a restrained and doubtful self-image. When the bomb went off, she poured all her will into defense without thinking, without letting the restraint get in her way, and so it worked.
But now the only thing she’s confident in is the voidhopping ability of the key.
They are going to be fighting for a long time.
I guess this book is one long war… The War actually…
Im calling it. We’re about to see the return of the annoying sorrority sisters
Oh my f***ing god, that would be amazing!!! Retreat to earth! I wonder what they’re all up to now?
That’s going to be *hilarious* if true
One would enjoy Princess apologising for the holes in the ceiling.
“You have STILL got on a—Oh my GOD, ALLISON is that a fucking DEMON??! And why is she NAKED?? And why is SHE bleeding?!? And who the FUUUUCK is this GIANT?! ALLISON!!!”

“OK, we gave you a pass on the bindi in your forehead, and Suzy SWEARS she saw you eat a frog or something when you were in the bathroom, but we’re gonna get banned from campus for this shit!”
Allison’s Earth is probably the safest, most out-of-the-way place in the Multiverse right now…
I wouldn’t be certain. The sedate march of pillaging hasn’t touched it yet. But it was only a matter of time until its number came up.
Jagganoth reignited the mad rush of war. While it is still a random lottery, the numbers are now getting pulled much faster.
Turning gates on and off is the most basic, surface level functionality of the keys. The master key can turn them all off (perhaps permanently?). The demiurges can teleport without the gates, but their armies can’t.

For now.
Hum, I wonder what excellent explanation she’ll have for why her Grand Canyon trip took months and she brought back an entourage of alien beings.
Now I actually want to see this.
Can’t wait to watch one of the Demiurge’s pursue Allison to her home-planet, only for them to get beaten up by a bunch of drunk college girls.
Or she could go Home with all the crew and we get to meet her parents, and watch them meeting their new daughter-in-law. Extra Lolz if Mr & Mrs. Ruth turn out to be devout christians.
but I wanted to watch the ultra violence : (
may be wrong here but I believe there’s a guy missing :v
Abbadon posted on twitter, he forgot Zaid because he’s exhausted, he’s gonna insert him tomorrow.
We all forget Zaid.
“Just according to plan”
-Cio
There are people who would pay good money to see that…
scared she gonna port them all back to earth and ole jagganoth will follow cause hes after her key
Fitting end to 2020, I’d say.
Sometimes the needle of time skips, and things you remember today may yet be different tomorrow.
perhaps this cannot be resolved with raw power, but allow me to offer an alternative suggestion: grinding
all you really need is a steady supply of challenging but not overwhelming enemies and sooner or later you break the difficulty curve
Hate to be that guy but there’s a typo, it says “We all all wounded and exhausted”
Holy Shit that alt text!
THE SOUND THE BEARER OF THE WORD “TOP” MAKES IS DOM. THAT IS ALL.
OH NO.
Where’s Zaid?!
10 Vigilant Gaze Purges the Horizon has totally become my favourite
You can just see him wanting to help out in the name of “Jolly Co-Operation!”
Cio’s emergency tacklehug technique is both effective and adorable.
The way the glow from Allison’s key almost-but-not-quite lines up with the panel borders feels like something of a missed opportunity for it to BE the panel borders.

Who speaks?
You would expect either of the angels to have picked up some healing skills in all their years.
Somebody stop them! They’ve got control of the narrative perspective, if they leave now they’ll take our POV with them and we won’t get to see Maya finally do something.
My guess is that’s Maya who is going to stop them, being after the key. “Girl, what do you think about death? Right this moment”.
Brave Pree Allison ran away
Bravely ran away away
When danger reared its ugly head

All that’s left is to eat the minstrels.
