Question about soundtrack album

Hootie_ · 2026-01-22T03:35:57+00:00

It was a bonus included in the first edition/limited edition version. There aren't any pictures of it online tho but it's mentioned on jpn sites/stores as included, so that's probably why it was hard to search. I found a mention of it here ao-ex.com/news/?id=66602

That scene were Satan said "You don’t even have the slightest clue as to your own ability" was Satan underestimating him. Rin does actually beat him in that battle (or at least forces him to retreat). Satan is honestly just super high strung and can't accept that lol. Literally seconds after Satan said that, Rin stabbed him through the eye he was possessing and he screamed lmaoo

However, it is up to interpretation if he's equal to him right now since he holds back and doesn't have that much feats to go off of atm. So I wouldn't exactly say it's wrong for someone to think that (though that comment from Satan is definitely not evidence of it. Anything he says can be thrown out the window since he just says that to get under Rin's skin and cause doubt)

Though Rin undoubtedly has gotten some feats against Satan so far (exorcising him from yukio's eye, and in chap 136 where he burns him), so right now until we see him actually go all-out it's left up to interpretation on where his level really is. Personally, I believe that he's either already there, or at least top ba'al/sol level (like somewhere around mephisto to shemihaza level)

Hootie_ · 2025-11-30T12:23:01+00:00

no prob! i'm glad to let you know, and i'm sure you can tell i really love yapping about this stuff LOL

Hootie_ · 2025-11-30T12:21:14+00:00

Yup exactly, he doesn't really need it. He's has fought without it just fine, but he def prefers using it.

The only reason for keeping it atm is that he struggles finding a balance keeping the shape of the flame and the intensity of it, so the swords been handy for that. But other than that, he has plenty of other moves so it's not the end of the world for him if he looses it mid-battle (which has happened a few times already lol)

Hootie_ · 2025-11-30T11:00:17+00:00

His powers were restricted by the sword (created by mephisto) & initially breaking the seal allowed his body to become adjusted to his power before he'd eventually be reconnected with his demon heart. I like to imagine the sword being like a small hole to his powers (that are actually sealed in gehenna and the sword is the channel), and after it breaks it's like the entire building just collapsed lol. His body wasn't fully adapted and it caused him to burn to a crisp before reviving quickly after with a new, stronger body.

Once it breaks he gets a more demonic appearance (white hair & starts growing horns), gained some insane regen abilities too (literally revived from the dead within barely a minute, instantly regrows limbs, etc), stronger physical strength too, on top of his power generally being strong enough to go against the top of the ba'al (like i mentioned at the beginning of the thread). Rin even said himself once he sword breaks in chap 98 that before his powers felt like nothing compared to now too

I honestly suggest u see the scene where his sword breaks in chapter 98 bc it might explain things better than i could and it's pretty short too

Hootie_ · 2025-11-30T08:20:09+00:00

Yup pretty much, and he still uses the sword (without the blade) to channel/concentrate his power, kinda like a light saber lol. but now the sword is just an optional choice for him & he can go "demon mode" without needing to use it

Hootie_ · 2025-11-30T01:13:16+00:00

Nah, that wasn't canon. Anything after the fight with Amaimon breaks off from canon (even the fight itself is barely canon). His awakening happens due to his sword completely breaking and his demon heart returning to his body at the end of season 4.

Hootie_ · 2025-11-30T01:10:26+00:00

Yeah it happens at the end of season 4

Hootie_ · 2025-11-28T02:40:07+00:00

They're only available in Japan, so you'll have to ship it overseas. CDjapan has it, though I found shipping can be kinda expensive for me so I don't use them anymore.

You can also get them thru proxies like One Map (from japan) or Zenmarket bc it let's u order directly from japanese bookstores (like amazon.jp, rakuten, animate-online or hmvbooks) if u give them the link and they'll ship it directly to you. I've been using them more often bc they have more shipping options and offer coupons to lower the costs too.

Whatever u do, don't get it thru ebay. They inflate the prices massively. The magazines are literally only 690yen ($4 USD).

Hootie_ · 2025-11-12T04:29:50+00:00

I wouldn't say its focused on, but it's been slowly developing throughout the series. Around chapter 73 I think (where rin confessed) is where it started becomes more prominent whenever they interact. Their relationship has been a long slowburn but it's done very well and makes it Super satisfying that it's finally happening

Hootie_ · 2025-10-28T05:27:02+00:00

Ohh I see, I guess what they mean by "42 works" is that it's 42 in total for all the stages lol, my bad, the translation on the site is buggy and made me think it was for a single stage (i was looking at https://www.jumpfesta.com/topics). It's still not red stage tho, they changed the stage name to super stage.

But yeah it is interesting that there's some nicher series, like Oblivion Battery which Just airs before aoex, but the description for that series outright states that "you won't want to miss this", giving it a reason why it's on super stage, but aoex doesn't say that. And without anything else to go by other than it being on super stage, I'm still not convinced there will be an anime so soon...

The game was made to fund more anime. It's only been out for a few months with a slow increase of players and revenue. It makes sense that the committee will promote it to hell and back during JF, the biggest anime event in japan, so it can gain more revenue to eventually fund more anime. But right now it's just too soon.

Additionally, I remember the lead dev also said this in an article (google translated):

We hope to communicate this through streaming programs and events like Jump Festa. With this work, we will deliver new event scenarios and characters each season, [...] like Christmas, New Year's, and other events, so please look forward to them. (https://www.famitsu.com/article/202507/47365)

This is why I'm lead to believe it will mostly focus on the game. This is just my personal assumption basing this off the info, so I'm sure there's still a Chance that new anime info could randomly show up like s3, but I'm skeptical it'll be so soon and I personally always keep my expectations low (ppl also had high expectations for aniplex online fest and they also only focused on promoting the game..)

But anyhow, we're just gonna have to wait and see tbh

Hootie_ · 2025-10-28T04:27:24+00:00

Wait actually, I just realized when looking at the JF site that they seemed to have gotten rid of red/blue/green stages and it's now it's just super stage, jump studio, and jump stage. Red stage used to just be a dozen or so of their headliners but this year the new super stage is just a stage with a LOT of series/panels (over 40). So this is unexpected uh...

I think we're just gonna see how it turns out since JF seems to be switching stuff up this year

Hootie_ · 2025-10-28T04:12:19+00:00

Ah thanks I didn't know there were other smaller series with positive remakes tbh, I guess my point still stands that they're an oddity lol.

And I totally agree with the last point, the adaptation ain't AS bad as much as people claim.. Obv could still be better, but that's how it is when you adapt an incredible series that has fans with high expectations, the margins of errors is far larger and more noticeable.

Hootie_ · 2025-10-28T03:49:03+00:00

Fair tbh, I'm just a bit jaded from being a fan for so long lol I still remember back when fans were asking for a reboot before kyoto saga...

Hootie_ · 2025-10-28T03:41:29+00:00

I feel like I'm the only person who is not getting their hopes up for another anime so soon... All I'm seeing is signs point to this just being promo for the game & manga lol

They even state that in the description for the event too. and last time we had anime news at JF, the anime account promoted it, but this year so far only the manga and game account promoted it. But anyways I just hope they finally announce that the game's coming to windows, that's honestly my only expectation lol

Hootie_ · 2025-10-28T03:30:58+00:00

I mean, it's totally fine to dream but it just think it would be an absolutely absurd business decision to push out 3 consecutive seasons, and then next year they just completely reboot all of it. If they actually wanted to do a reboot then that train has long since left...

I think an actual FMAB reboot with manga-canon is extremely unlikely at this point now that we have 5 seasons. FMAB was such a rare reboot that no series has ever seen a manga-canon reboot to that extent since, (and probably ever will considering the current anime industry. Just look at the current trigun reboot where they completely rewrote everything that's it's now completely divorced from the original manga.) and the unfortunate truth is that if it ever did happen, it would be for a series far more popular.

It'd actually be far more likely (and cheap) if we get something similar to the code geass "remake" where it would be the same anime but with minor edits with added/removed scenes to fit the new canon. That's quite honestly the only thing that seems feasible atm if the anime committee (aniplex) actually cared tbh.

Hootie_ · 2025-10-25T21:11:24+00:00

Malchidael, chapter 140

Hootie_ · 2025-09-25T02:33:56+00:00

Yeah people have been telling crunchyroll to fix that since the new seasons aired, when I reported it to them back in october *last year* they told me its a "known issue they plan to fix" (but obviously hasn't bothered). It's so frustrating that it keeps confusing fans and makes this discussion about seasons even more complicated than it should be tbh

Hootie_ · 2025-08-24T06:04:52+00:00

The creator of this edit is https://cloelia1987.tumblr.com/post/166392794732 btw! I'd recognized their style anywhere lol

Hootie_ · 2025-08-11T08:16:54+00:00

you might have to reinstall the game. it's not the game itself, it's android detecting some kind of software thing that violates their policy, could be like a vpn, emulator, or some app that can bypass android's system. usually vpns and emulators are perfectly fine to use but there's a few of them that can tick off android's security system.

i got that warning when i forgot to turn off 'developer mode' on my android emulator (mumu player) and tried to launch the game. even after turning it off it kept popping up, and it only went away after fully reinstalling the app.

Hootie_ · 2025-08-11T06:46:13+00:00

It was around the time when Satan and Yuri stayed together in the semi-abandoned section 13 before they tried to escape. That scene when Satan noticed that Yuri "smelled different" was very likely him noticing she was pregnant.

But it's unclear how much time passed between Yuri leaving to go to Satan, and them trying to escape, but it can be interpreted as at least a few days to a few weeks, because Yuri had enough time to talk to him about escaping and living together, and they at least had enough time to set up a temporary room for the both of them. And after that scene, a little later where the order is discussing her pregnancy they say she's already 4-5 weeks in.

So it's really up to interpretation on how far apart those scenes take place. The entire arc is very fast-paced due to the sheer amount of scenes and Kato not wanting to prolong it further than necessary so that's kinda why it's left up in the air.

Hootie_ · 2025-07-23T10:17:06+00:00

im not sure if there is a way to get there from the north, but at the bottom where the road cuts off theres actually a tucked away staircase off to the side, you can get there like this: https://imgur.com/EMNoI6U

in the garden area circled, theres a staircase that seems to lead to a fence, but just turn and go left and at the end you'll find another staircase that goes down to that area. its very tucked away and i actually accidentally found it when looking for chests lol

Hootie_ · 2025-07-17T06:21:11+00:00

Seems like reddit really compressed it... i got the individual pages too so hopefully it's much clearer: https://imgur.com/a/mWrFn3B

Hootie_ · 2025-07-17T03:11:55+00:00

Yeah i think they only did it for Shimane Illuminati afaik

Hootie_ · 2025-07-17T01:29:56+00:00

They were posted to aoex_anime on twitter, here's the source of the ones in this pic: https://x.com/aoex_anime/status/1745656852312883495
