Edens Zero Chapter 130 Review/Recap

The war for Foresta’s come to an end, and all that’s left is for each faction to pick up the pieces. Now that Shiki knows what his Grandpa will do, he’s more determined than ever to stop him/bring him to his senses. However, Edens Zero isn’t the only group after Ziggy. Emperor Nero’s Elite Guard, the Oceans 6, have set their sights on the Demon King. In other words, the heroes will have a new enemy to fight in the near future! And what’s worse: Shura’s leading them!

Recap

Aboard their ship, Justice’s group recovers from their fights on Foresta, and goes over everything they learned about Shiki’s crew. With the prescence of Elsie, Nero, Shura, and Ziggy in Aoi Cosmos, Justice gets word from Holy of the Oracion Seis Interstellar that two more members will be coming to aid him.

Meanwhile, at his capital planet known as The Temple, Emperor Nero summons his elite guard, the Oceans 6, along with his son. Angered by the fact that Ziggy violated Foresta, Shura and the Oceans 6 want to go to war with Ziggy. However, Nero’s “Sacred Guiding Dice” lead him to not interfere with the ongoing events. Instead, he puts Shura in charge of the Oceans 6 to hunt down Ziggy.

Back on the Edens Zero, Xenolith explains why Ziggy targeted Foresta in the first place. In his current state, he can’t do much against his former student. However, Xeno thinks that Ziggy feared that he would Shiki and help him grow stronger. In return, Xenolith wants Shiki to find his Grandpa and defeat him.

Review

Considering how sadistic and bloodthirsty Drakken Joe was, I was under the impression that Emperor Nero would be just as nuts. However, it looks like the old man’s very chill. He outright says that he once called Ziggy friend, and if anything, he’s more saddened by how he’s become his own antithesis. Maybe the Oracion Seis Galactica aren’t as bad as they’re made out to be; at least, not all of them.

If anything, it’s Shura that worries me the most. That guy’s a bloodthirsty sociopath who’s likely out for his dad’s throne. Worse, it seems Ziggy gave him his Gravity Ether Gear! If anything, he’s going to be the biggest obstacle Shiki will face in the Aoi Cosmos.

As for Xenolith, I think I can see him joining the crew so he can train Shiki to face his dad. And as the fights against Ziggy and Justice clearly show, Shiki’s going to need some serious training!

Not a lot went on in this chapter, but we’re in the transitional phase between arcs, so I didn’t expect a lot to happen. Where we go from here, I’m interested in finding out, though. Okay, actually, something interesting did happen.

I Give “Oceans 6” a 2.8/5. Not Most Exciting Chapter
