Chapter 5 Page 57 (pg 358)

God that is like the best place to end it, where the villain has the heroes on the ropes, but they managed to pull out a plan and about to set it to motion.

But damn, what savagry.

First, all of the anime references, friendships, plans, weirdos, this is a great sports anime battle.

Then, damn what should I say about the characters? Not sure how Suzy’s blackmail will work. Muse’s advice was pretty sound looking back on it, but he is also such an ass that I can’t really take his words to heart. The Student Councils are like super weird secret service men. The VP is probably a witch/spectral of some kind, she is too weird not to be.

Then we get the main stars of the show. Puppet-Jeff is specifically targeting Johnny & maybe Max. Why? Is it Spectral powers? Does he know the spirits that possess them? Is there something more??

Cody is like so supportive of his friend, and Puppet-Jeff is using that to his advantage super well. Cody being all Matrix to help is just amazing. I love my son.

Then we have Max, Johnny, and Dimitri. Can I just say that this trio is absolutely amazing together? Like, I love them all separately, but as a whole they are so cool.

Dimitri is so smart and super badass. I think he is a Spectral, specifically one from the Cousinhood. Because if he was for the Consorts, then BL wouldn’t have needed to send in an agent in the first place. Either way, he is a genius.

Then we have Johnny, my weird brave boy. He put himself out there to protect his friends, and Forge was fucking ready to help him. You can say that great emotions can activate the spirit powers, but I would like to think that the protectiveness that Johnny felt at that moment is what summoned Forge specifically.

Then there is Max, who is just trying to live through it all, and almost gets killed. He is literally a normal child just thrown into this, you can’t expect him to be a hero over-night, even with missions and all of that. Ball at Mach 5 is scary

Damn, I can’t wait to see the conclusion of this.
