I have trouble remember the events

halibonga · 2012-10-02, 08:36

waiting each week only for a little clue about the island to be revealed, is frustrating..

Lexxus · 2012-10-06, 15:11

I have a bad feeling with that little bottle. Something will definitely happen.. But I just can't figure it out what is it...

blade82 · 2012-10-06, 17:00

its just Venom that payed a little visit

ReaperxKingx · 2012-10-06, 17:15

Yeah...... blade82 I don't know why but your reference to Spider Man is on the mark.

Yes! I'm expecting a symbiote villain as well.

"Guess it's true that big breasts equal stupidity"
"It doesn't equal"
Oomori's eyes, that was good

2307, could it be some kind of password or the year it was written? Assuming the original timeline is the 21th century, there could be a gap of 200+ years.

The Venom theory is good, I can totally see one of the students bonding with it and see what happened to this island.

Key Board · 2012-10-06, 19:55

I get the feeling that the story just shifted shift from Jurassic Park to Resident Evil or Prometheus

what's that goo going to do?

WHATEVER THE WRITER WANTS IT TO DO!

nope....2307 is the number of of the plane their in when they crash...thats why it's very weird... does it mean they all been here before? (but it doesnt make sense) my bet is it some paralel universe...where there are the same accident but it doesnt end well and they all die and those writings are the last message...
even though what is the reason of the anagram? maybe the one infected by venom is akira instead and he killed everyone and thats why all the hate message... is hades sengoku then?

Pardon my ignorance of the Japanese language and please correct any misconceptions I might have.

In kanji A-ki-ra あきら and Ra-i-ka らいか would not be anagrams. The translation site Denshi Jisho has 9 1/2 pages of different spellings for Akira, none of them phonetic, many of them single characters 啓 .

It somewhat surprises me that Romaji (Latin character) anagrams would be a common game. I realize that word games are popular and often used in manga such as Jiraiya's first letter code message to Naruto, Bakuman's detective stories using codes, and every dead person in Conan writing a clue in his own blood. Still is an anagram even a Japanese concept outside of the English language?

Key Board · 2012-10-07, 19:25

I was honestly confused by what your point is

then I remembered that you were reading a translation

it's spelled RAIKA ISLAND too in the Japanese raws using western alphabeth

Starshipw · 2012-10-07, 21:25

Thank you. The second time reading through I figured out the graffiti was probably written by an American. But as an example, if I were a high schooler taking Russian I think I would be challenged by an anagram written in Cyrillic script, but since the letters have English analogues it would not be so strange. However for Japanese, except for college students or those living abroad, it would seem to me that with 2000+ common kanji that the very concept of anagrams would be unusual except as maybe some trick in a poem. But Rion apparently played the game as a young girl. I am very impressed.

Somnus · 2012-10-08, 11:56

I was reminded of Venom (from Spiderman) as well.

Though, for the record. If/when Rion dies, I'm done with CoE. It started getting good cause of things developing with her, and it'll stop getting good cause of the very same development stopping abruptly.

Key Board · 2012-10-21, 21:15

Just read the latest raw

it really reminds me of Resident Evil now

the first games, though...

Nvis · 2012-10-21, 23:28

I am very worried about Rion....and..

Spoiler:

Kleeyook · 2012-10-22, 11:58

My...

Spoiler for ch 174:

SemperMalum · 2012-10-28, 07:36

This manga went from EXTREMELY interesting and tense... to kind of stagnant. Now, I just want to get to the end and see where everything wraps up.

Nvis · 2012-10-28, 22:34

Still on raws........

Spoiler for 175:

Nvis · 2012-11-06, 15:10

Looks like ch174 is out, but we're still 2 chapters behind....

Spoiler for 176:

NinjaRealist · 2012-11-06, 15:27

Chapter 174:

More proof that Tokiwa is the best character in the manga. I hope Rion finally bites the dust in the arc so Sengoku x Tokiwa can come true.

Also....

...dat cliffhanger...

Yarai ripped out its HD and gave it to the genius guy to decode with his laptop while they explore what appears to be "Raika Island Supervisor" room where Akira finds a note(or picture) and discovers something at the same time genius kid decodes the HD.
