I’m pretty nervous for Allison to be doing this tournament. Everybody there is going be fighting and using every dirty trick in the books to make sure they come out ahead, not to mention she’s playing directly into the hands of not only Gog, but also Solomon and the rest of the council. They already had sufficient motive to find and kill her but she’s fucked with 2 of them so far, and Solomon’s mastery over Ki Rata would probably put him in the upmost echelons of fighters without his Key.
Allison was having trouble fighting a red demon (who was admittedly strong as fuck), but Incubus also pointed out that she can only use her power for a few seconds at a time, and she’s a far cry from mastery over the Empty Palms. This tournament will be a wake up call for her.
Agreed. Allyson is unlikely to accept Gog-Agog’s offer to fight “fixed” matches with weaker opponents. If she progresses through ranked matches with stronger and stronger opponents, she will face tougher challenges that will push her to reach beyond her current strength and skills.
My intuition is that Allison’s limits are self-imposed whether she knows it or not. She’s developed martial arts skills and gained in strength, but is still tentative in using the Key of Kings. It will take more to push her into tapping into the power of Ultimate Creation/Destruction.

Just… does the Key help her learn martial arts really, really fast? Because normally it takes years to become proficient in a martial art to the point where you can win fights to the death and that’s not even taking into account that she is learning an angelic form of martial arts that’s supposed to be impossible to master for normal humans. Going up against the kind of fighters that’s likely to challenge Solomon David is going to require a lot more than one year of training; and then I’m not even talking about going up against Salami Dave himself! By all logic, she’s headed for a crushing defeat.
Then again, neither her confrontation with Mottom or Mammon went like logic would have predicted… but if she wins this by defeating Salami Dave in the arena, I’m calling b*llshit. I think. We’ll have to see.
I am glad Cio held her ground and did what is best for her. She knows another mission could be suicide for Cio, and she doesn’t want to be who would replace Cio.
I wonder, is she the only demon to have deliberately chosen to be less than she could be, to have a life that is more?
Ok, so I get the goggles because Solomon’s realm has 2 suns and the weather would never dare be gloomy, but what’s with the bandage over Allison’s nose? Did she stop to get in a punch-up on the way here or is that just a breathe-right strip because she snores at night and White Chain can’t bear to listen to it?
We don’t really know for sure how much time they had before the contest began: there may have been time for a couple more high-intensity training sessions with White Chain before they left.
Allison doesn’t seem to be paying attention to the fact that the demon she diminished is getting bigger. It won’t belong before he will be able to reclaim his name and black mask.

People have a weird definition of “fat”.
Average American- out of shape, around 40lbs of flab- Normal, not fat.
Person who works out, has defined muscles and very little body fat- fit
Person who works out, has very healthy amount of body fat (like, what you get if you don’t starve)- fat
A human’s body fat has so much to do with what body type they have. Two equally fit and healthy people can have very different fat amounts. Not only that, but different people have different natural fat distributions.
Basically, calling Allison fat is weird if you mean unfit (since she’s strong as hell), but fine if you just mean that she has fat on her body (like a normal damn human) than it’s technically true (and basically meaningless).
It would be great if people would shut the fuck up about Allison being fat, because depending on the definition they’re using they’re either incorrect, or saying basically nothing.
I don’t think it’s a reverse. Cio isn’t actually the cut’s “subject” here, Al-YS-UN is: She says “you can’t just –“, then the cut is to “I guess she could”.
THIS STYLE. LADIES. CONSIDER MY WIG OFFICIALLY SNATCHED.
So long Cio, may you appear at either happier times or just in the nick of time
Did you really just say “Ciao, Cio?”
You dog!
Seems appropriate given the time. But surely Cio will appear in the near future.
Narrator voice: she could.
you know; you say she can’t
looks like she did
It is good that Cio was left behind. One with doubt in their heart is destined to lose, for they have already defeated themselves.
Turns out she could, indeed, just.

Power walk!
So, how long before she eyeballs the (ex)boyfriend again?
In both senses, let the games begin…
Poor white chain is suffering from Rob Liefield chest 🙁

“you can’t just…” *she could, in fact.*

Remember the wedding of Aesma.
Which is not to say she won’t show up later to help save the day.
But she needs to go in because *she* has something to save.
Look like it’s pretty warm in Solomon’s sunny kingdom. Allison better make sure to hydrate between battles. 🙂

I assumed it was from Cio punching her in the nose.
There’s a bandage on her knee, too. Training injuries, I’m guessing.
Could just be athletic tape, or even intended to throw those who might recognize her off the scent.

That devil is a she.
Gender, as well as name, is something Allison imposed on it. Of course, to a demon that might not matter much.
He’s a girl now and he’s having fun and loves his lesbian girl group.
I’m honestly very happy for her.
I’m afraid of the monkey. It concerns me.
A healthy fear of monkeys is natural.
They are dangerous things, especially the talking ones with pants.
That toothy bastard with the plum, though…

Person who works out, has defined muscles and very little body fat- fit
Person who works out, has very healthy amount of body fat (like, what you get if you don’t starve)- fat
It’s a definition that’s created and sold to us, deliberately and unrealistically, through commercial art.
I just noticed: socks and sandals.
A human’s body fat has so much to do with what body type they have. Two equally fit and healthy people can have very different fat amounts. Not only that, but different people have different natural fat distributions.

A reverse gilligan cut. Interesting. Don’t think I’ve seen one of those before.
I don’t think it’s a reverse. Cio isn’t actually the cut’s “subject” here, Al-YS-UN is: She says “you can’t just –“, then the cut is to “I guess she could”.
So, is that coffee set hanging off of Al-YS-UN’s pack, or is White Chain carrying it behind her?
I believe her barista skills were mentioned some time ago. Looks like she’s intending to use them.
Princess is looking like a Supreme wearing badass. I feel this tournament will push him to relapse into yet another more powerful form of himself.
