Yeah, not so many dead bodies around them in the original…
Enjoyable chapters so far this volume. Enjoyed the little flashback window showing some of ojisan’s fellow escapees. Not sure what to make of the little bunny page at the end of the chapter!
Emma read the old man like a book. But it looks like it was too late to avoid getting caught up in whatever’s happening at Goldy Pond. But if they kidnap kids like that, I wonder what the situation was with the old man where they were all lying on the ground in his memories. Or maybe that was just a metaphor, and they got taken as well.
I was thinking the same, I think some of the memory bubbles could be a bit misleading and we I think we don’t yet know what became of the old man’s friends. That was a crazy end to the chapter, like she jumped into the movie Shrek or something. Nearly the end of the week, so I couldn’t resist jumping ahead and reading next week’s chapter too…
A fun and creepy chapter. This was very unexpected, perhaps I’ve just forgotten how the demons can create such civilised spaces. I loved how we explored an apparently idyllic village, with the clear expectation that something bad was coming!
Very interesting chapter. I wonder what the point of the idyllic setting is? I thought it was for the kids to enjoy themselves, since stressed out kids don’t taste as good, but that went out the window when the hunt aspect was introduced. Maybe it’s so the hunters can roleplay like they’re hunting in a human village. That would be messed up.
Yeah, I think so. So they can be hunted in their natural habitat. Like building a small safari zone on the outskirts of your Manor House for hunting lions.
This Goldy Pond arc is fun. I like seeing Emma in these situations where she’s plotting, and planning, and showing her intelligence, and caring about saving everyone. The demons are also really cool - I like the guy who had the axe thrown at him, and I really like the main guy in the hat.
