AMANO, WHAT THE ACTUAL FUCK, YOU GOATSUCKING HACK?!

*breathing hard*

I had already realized, well before this thank you, that Amano is dedicated to making her women useless frills, to handicapping even the few who are allowed to fight, to portraying the ones who are actually reasonably strong as absolute psychopaths, to making sure that they lose to the men every goddamn time. And I had realized, well before this also, that she has rolled back character development to nearly Issue 60 levels. And it was clear that Chrome was going to be the especial victim of both these trends, for the present arc.

BUT THIS! SHE HAS ACTUALLY CONTRADICTED HER OWN ESTABLISHED FACTS. HER OWN DAMN FACTS FROM THE LAST DAMN ARC WHERE THEY WERE REALLY DAMN CRITICAL TO THE PLOT! SHE CHANGED THE FACTS TO A DEGREE THAT IS FLATLY IMPOSSIBLE TO RECONCILE WITH PREVIOUS ACTION!

I don't believe this. Even though it's Amano I'm-a-flaming-misogynist Continuity-what's-that Akira, I still can't quite believe she actually just did that!

The only bright side I can wrest out of this pathetic clusterfuck is that the present arc is now clearly and canonically AU to the rest of the manga, and I therefore have a bulletproof reason to completely ignore it.

Right. There needs to be fic. Something where Chrome meets the first Mist, one way or another, and kicks his goddamn ass.

IT COULD ALL BE OKAY! If it turns out that Chrome's just screwing with him.

...which is obviously not going to happen because that would be. Amazing. WHICH CANNOT BE.

But someone...somewhere...did point out that Chrome doesn't have her ring right now because it is a rock. Which at least explains why she's not making her own organs at this time.

It still doesn't explain why she abruptly doesn't seem to KNOW about them. Unless she's screwing with Spade. She is a Mist Guardian, after all, screwing with people is their THING, come on Amano, just this once. ;_; Because that could be great! Mindfuckery could actually be Chrome's secret power, that would even MAKE SENSE, and it's never come up before now--Mukuro is the only genuine mindfucker she knows, and she has no interest in fighting him, so. So!!!

It's never going to happen. I just need to let that idea die quietly before it burns me. Because she's brainwashed now, right? Or something? Can you fake brainwashing? YOU CAN IN FIC. *weeps* This seriiiiiiies.
