    Where's Prescilla? I hope she's not dead. And will the organization turn Raki into a male awakened being?

    For some reason, Raki might be the one wiping monsters from the face of that world.

    He's powerless, but yet it seems he was the one responsible for the eradication of the voracious eaters at Tichéri.
    He somehow/probably has a power that can anihilate yoki.
    He got that from birth and slowly awakened the power, or got it being surronded by humongous yoki powers, starting by Claire, Easley, Priscilla.
    That would explain why the latter was so tiny and with an almost impossible to trakc yoki.
    It was her only way to be able to travel with Raki, or his power was rather pratical in that it masked her yoki.

    Out of this pure speculation, it might explain why he's never been attacked by Priscilla or Easley. And if I stretch it a bit, he might be the reason why Claire was always able to remain on the thin red line beetween sanity and going awakened when she powered up (or at least it helped the first few times when she needed a lifeline so that she learns the limits)

    All the things I really like to do are either illegal, immoral, or fattening. And then: Golf.

    That's probably better reasoning than the usual cliche "my love pulled her back from insanity". It would give Raki some interesting development, since i've been waiting the entire manga for him to become badass.

    I don't really see how Raki having that power would stop Easley or Pricillia from attacking him, but like you said, it's speculation, and it's actually rather plausible. I like it too, since it finally gives him a way to finally protect Clare.

    Like Dae said, lets hope everything is more interesting than simply "willpower".

    I can see that happening. The organisation makes Claymores by infusing Yoma flesh into humans. Right now, that "thing" is pretty much infusing itself into Raki. If the organisation is able to find out why Raki's surviving as long as he has, they might be able keep his brain from being affected by the parasite, letting him control it back.

    The fact that they mentioned these beings have no thirst for flesh may translate as a lack of lust in Raki, so that releasing Youki doesn't give him pleasure as it did the previous male samples.

    Regarding Pricillia, I'm going to guess she lured a whole bunch of them away from Raki and killed them herself. She'll be part of the rescue mission later on to get Raki out of the place.


    The bottom frame of pg20-21 was simply beautiful.

    If it's not Isuzu-chan Mii~

    That would seem like the more likely explanation although Priscilla fusing with Raki also visited my mind, but I can't really see that happening.

    I'm certainly looking forward to learning just why Raki can fight back against the parasites. David's theory is a bit out there but who knows. Sheer willpower would be a bit boring.
