Edens Zero Chapter 127 Review/Recap
Do I have any longtime anime and manga fans here? If the answer’s yes, then you might have heard of Planet Namek? That alien planet the heroes went to in Dragon Ball Z that Frieza blew up at the end of the saga. Why am I bringing this up now? Simple: because Muller’s trying to pull a Planet Namek in the new chapter of Edens Zero, and that makes me hate him so much, I refuse to call him a person. I will now refer to Muller as an “it”.
Recap
Back on the Edens Zero, Kleene’s barely holding on, and Sister has no clue as to what’s wrong with her. Left with no alternative, Sister resorts to diving into Kleene’s memories to uncover the source of her trauma. Meanwhile, on the space station, it’s revealed how Muller knows the Rutherford Siblings. Their parents were benefactor’s of it’s lab, and after it got arrested, they withdrew their support. Once Muller escaped prison, it murdered them and abducted the two. As part of its sadistic experiment, Muller tore apart Jinn’s body until Kleene emotionally broke.
Enraged beyond the point of any mercy, Weisz beats the absolute shit out of Muller.
However, as a last resort, Muller pulls a Planet Namek: it activates a self-destruct system that will destroy Foresta! It then shatters Weisz’s Arsenal suit and prepares to deliver a fatal blow. Thankfully, the timely arrival of Laguna prevents that. Better still, it gives Weisz the opening he needs to obliterate the monster once and for all.
Review
God, that was so cathartic!! From the moment that we met Muller and learned that it was a psychopathic monster, I’ve wanted to see it get what it deserves. Note how I’m using the word “it” instead of “him” to describe Muller now. That’s because I can’t even bring myself to call that monster a person anymore. It’s a sad, pathetic excuse for a sentient being, and seeing it die is cathartic! With that, whatever plans Ziggy had for Foresta may have finally been stopped.
It’s not over yet, though. Thanks to the Planet Namek that Muller pulled, the whole planet may explode! Countless beings will die if that happens. I pray that there’s still time for Hermit and Weisz to fix this mess before it’s unsalvageable. It wouldn’t be the first time that Mashima’s resorted to a last-minute save, but it’s always a pleasure to watch. As for me, I’m hoping that this means that Sister can heal the damage Muller did to Kleene. Great arc, overall. I love it!
I Give “The Doomsday System” a 4.5/5
