Chapter 191 Discussion

Okay everyone, I've been dying to discuss this and see what others think. Any fun theories? Just want to squee over finally getting some backstory? I want to hear it!

Obviously, comments will contain spoilers.

Here is the part about the Innocence evolving:

Bookman does say that the Innocence has never acted out before, but then after the discussion of Crystal type weapons, he also ponders why the Earl hasn't crushed the order yet, and hypothesizes that the Earl is letting the Order stay alive for a reason:

I wonder if he's trying to force the Exorcists to expose the Heart to save him the trouble of looking for it? By forcing the Exorcists to fully release their Innocence like this? They've certainly set the stage for a bunch of power upgrades to take place. I, of course, am totally making guesses here. I'm very interested to see hat happens next!

Ohh.
It's been a while since I've read dgm. It went on hiatus and I got distracted.


I doubt it what would be in it for him?
I'm sorry I'm not very stimulating of a conversation, like I said it's been a while since I've read most of this.

Don't apologize. I am a total nerd who obsesses over manga far too much. ^_^

I think forcing the Order's hand will make things easier for the earl in his quest to destroy the Heart. Why keep searching for it all over the world when he can get the Exorcists to reveal it to him by leveling up? He's already got Allen and Lenalee on the radar now because of this. I'm sure we'll find out in due time. :)

Yeah but what would Bookman care about it? He's only there to watch.

Why would Bookman care about the evolution of the Innocence? I think it's probably simply because it's something interesting to record. If you mean why he cares about Lavi leveling up, it would make Lavi too close to the Innocence/the side of the Order to be impartial - they're already teetering on the line with that anyway masquerading as Exorcists. Is that what you were asking?

Kind of.
