Seriously, that guy has balls. Even though Farnese ends up saving his ass in the end, you gotta give that guy credit for trying. If he ends up joining the group he may be a pretty good addition. We'll just have to wait and see...Leeuwer said:Roderick coming into action finally ...

yota821 said:She used "金縛り”, which is basically a form of paralysis (which is obvious from looking at the immoblized tigers).
専門的にはレム睡眠の特殊な場合に起こる睡眠麻痺とよばれる生理的な現象です。
In real life it usually happens during REM sleep, and occurs when the mind is awake but the body is still sleeping, giving the impression that one is paralyzed. Usually excess stress or insomnia, or even a uncomfortable sleeping environment can be the cause.
Haha, I always thought that was the lamest power from that show when I was younger...still do in fact...although Farnese seems to be using it quite well.Aazealh said:Interesting about the uses and origins of 金縛り, thanks guys. And thanks GoHF for the mirror. Anyway...
Farnese' new ability: the Power of HEART! Telepathy and Control animals!
The power is yours!
Tell Me Why said:I don't understand what those wirey things do though.. do they paralyze the enemy? I don't think a tiger would drop down after getting some string with thorns on it stuck to its feet.
I think Puella managed to explain this pretty well.puella said:Yeah, it is used in that meaning nowadays and it originally comes from "Fudô no kanashibari (不動の金縛り)", which is some kind of magic Fudômyôô (不動明王) uses to paralyze/immobilize something.

I think it stands an excellent chance of ending up as the Volume 29 cover. Although, I wouldn't be surprised if the cover featured Shierke, since that volume dealt with her feelings quite a bit, too. Either way I'm sure we won't be disappointed.Aazealh said:PS: The color page with Farnese will either be the cover of volume 29 or part of the mini-poster, your guesses?
Maybe it's the mist in the room that's keeping them in their familiar form?Aazealh said:Interesting to notice that the familiars didn't revert yet, from what we can see, Schierke has to immobilize them (and Miura uses some complicated Buddhist reference, that's like him).
Gotta go with it being the cover; this volume spotlighted Farnese a lot (not to say Schierke & Serpico didn't get some limelight too) after Schierke's pirate/neo-BotH members/Azan encounters. Just seems more likely to me.Aazealh said:PS: The color page with Farnese will either be the cover of volume 29 or part of the mini-poster, your guesses?
Well, now that the Tigers seem defeated, I must agree it seems logical for them to try and reunite with their troops...Aazealh said:However, the nobles are being attacked and killed right now, at the ball. They're going to die and flee, and I'd expect them to try to join with their troops rather than insolating themselves in a castle or whatever you're thinking of, especially since they're apparently major targets in this attack.
I was more thinking that the New BoH doesn't need a lot of soldiers, its strength is already impressive, but for Griffith, I think that the Nobles' confidence is more important... I don't know... :-\Aazealh said:Like I said, it's been speculated for a while now that the Hawks will appear at the end of the battle and save/incorporate the survivors, but what you're suggesting is the opposite, saving the nobles first and foremost but leaving the city and allied armies to be destroyed. I just don't find that to be very plausible in the context, especially since Guts is taking care of the nobles at the moment.
I couldn't imagine her staying in the Castle anyway, especially in the middle of the Kushans' attack! I'm pretty sure Serpico will stay with her. He has been devoting his life to her, I don't think he would leave her now, with all the dangers around.krumm47 said:do you think he'll follow even though he just dueled Guts? Sounds likely to me. Additionally, he himself really seems to admire Guts (his comments while fighting with him are proof of that). I don't think he'd prefer to be with Farnese in a noble life.

Jhot obs said:I noticed Guts didn't even think about the beast, given he was feeling it against the crocs on the beach & during his duel with Serpico. I guess these familiars aren't badass enough to coerce it out of Guts.
