Forum:Latest Chapter: 212

I'm a little confused. i thought that the image of the man that approached Allen WAS Nea. I thought it was Nea asking Allen if Allen hated Nea?

Nea doesn't have long hair; it has been said that Tyki looks like Nea, and, out of the two, Tyki is the one with the long hair. Thus, the conclusion that the apparition that approached Allen was Tyki, who was asking Nea if he hated him (Tyki). .Seshat. 02:57, February 22, 2012 (UTC)

Don't forget that Mana was also shown to have long, curly hair when he was young. It could really be either the former third or Mana.

Where exactly is Mana shown having long, curly hair, if you don't mind my asking? I don't remember anything like that in the manga, and I haven't seen the anime, so... .Seshat. 05:54, March 6, 2012 (UTC)

I believe it was Chapter 165 (I can't check right now because I don't have that volume and my computer's not working right), but the picture's up on the wiki on Nea Walker's page, under history. There's of picture of Nea and Mana as kids, and Mana clearly has long, if not curly then wavy hair tied back in a ponytail with sidebangs. If you look at whoever appeared before Allen in Chapter 212, you can see that he also has sidebangs while Tyki's bangs are shorter and more all-over-the-place (though, being the previous third, the hair could be slightly different). I could definitely be wrong, but I think there's good evidence for it being either of them.

PS. (smiling) I haven't seen the anime either.

I know what picture you're talking about, but I'm afraid I'm not entirely convinced... Like you said, Mana and Nea were young in that picture (at least a handful of years younger than the apariton that approached Allen), and, during that time, it wasn't uncommon for boys to wear their hair long until they reached a certain age. 'course, I could be wrong, too... *sighs* Hoshino's drawing style has gotten way too ambiguous. As for the anime... I gave it a try... but the voice actors killed it for me. ^.^' .Seshat. 07:38, March 6, 2012 (UTC)

Heh. I know. The art style's pretty schizo. (Still gorgeous, though.) It changes with every chapter! It's gotten so hard to tell who's who anymore! I'm honestly not convinced about who it is either. Just thought that I might as well put forward another possibility. But all the mysteries are part of what makes DGM such a great read, right? I tried the anime too, but it was the filler and generic art that ruined it for me. Voice acting was...so-so.
