Such a loss for the world. I have no idea if they will finish out the chapters they are working on and publish them or not. I’ve heard that Miura knew how the story was going to end and he was close to ending it. I don’t know if that is documented anywhere so it can be published and the story finished is anyone’s guess. I know he was training his staff to do most of the art for the series to lighten his load and get more chapters out. So I think it’s to early to tell what will happen. Like you, I’m just in shock and if they leave it where it is, I’d be ok with it. RIP Miura, he gave us a treasure.
I love how Erica calls Daiba “Old Beardy” , she gets along with him really well. It’s very cute! And of course Rickert’s God Slap! That was sweet! These chapters cement Silat as a favorite character for me. I had already liked him for his non-allegiance to any power and independent thinking. He is another “Guts”. A reflection of Guts’s character in another culture. This story is full of reflections and repetitions. It is truly as Flora says the world is. It’s a reflecting spiral.
