Awww, the last book wasn't awful. It was book 6 that sucked. Still, DGM is way better than that.
Mana needs a bigger role because that's what Hoshino-sensei has planned. He wouldn't need to be anything other than a dead guy if we'd just learned about him already, but I'd be pretty disappointed if DGM ends and Mana was really nothing more than some guy who raised Allen... completely unimportant, and no reason to hide anything about him.
Reading this is raising a lot of questions. Most of all I came up with how awkward it would be.
"So Allen tell us about yourself." "Well my first parents abandoned me because of my horrible red demonic arm with a across embedded in it, my adopted father died twelve years later, I brought him back and he tried to kill me and ended up horribly scarring me and apparently bleached my hair, I worked in a circus when I was older and learned how to balance on a ball and on a leaning chair on one finger, I've had my heart eaten through by a parasitic butterfly, and I have my dead father in my left eye. Yep. That's about it." *smiles* ".........."
...Yeah, I'd hate to have to explain that story. xD Although he apparently has no trouble with it since he did tell all of that (except the parts that hadn't happened) to Lenalee, in the Rewinding Town arc.
I guess if you've had fifteen years to think it over and it's happened to you, you'd figure out how to explain that to someone. I'm suprised Linalee didn't go "Wtf"
I wondor if innocence is passed down by genetics too... I doubt it.
Yeah, I guess. Lenalee probably wasn't surprised because she explained her own story, too: parents killed by akuma, kidnapped by the Order, separated from her brother for three years until she tried to commit suicide and then he got a high-ranking role to stay with her. That's a bit weird.
Conformers aren't usually genetically linked, I think...? The Order was trying to see if that was true with the experiment with that boy who became a togaochi.
Yea, the story about the boy turning into a togaochi was sad. I doubt it is by genetics.
The fact that we know so little about Mana Walker is what intrigues me. The theory that makes the most sense to me is that Mana was the Noah who betrayed other Noahs and the one who knew Cross. Maybe that's why Cross was able to find Allen right after the akuma-mana incident...I don't know.
I do believe that he had/has some role in the story though. And WHAT is the whole thing about Mana living in Allen's left eye???
That does seem a likely theory; it's very convenient that we'd have someone who died three years ago under mysterious circumstances, and someone who was killed three years ago, and who COULD be the same person. How did Cross find Allen, anyway...
Mana's spirit is just in Allen's eye, I guess. It's an akuma eye.
I think that Mana is the Akatsu.... Wait... Wrong manga...
Why would he have given Allen that eye though? If an Akuma is perversion created with a human soul, something that shouldn't exists, why would he have given Allen that kind of power? Perhaps, now that Cross Marian has made his appearance - as I, naturally, foresaw - he will explain something about Allen and what seems to be a connection between him (or his eye) and the Akumas.
XD Dante.
I don't think Mana intended to give Allen helpful powers that were desired, though. Even Lavi said that he wouldn't want to see the world that way. It was probably just anger or whatever on Mana's part... especially if he was a Noah. He could have felt betrayed at finding out that his son was supposed to be his enemy, or something like that.
Maybe we will be told that he gave Allen that eye expecting that, since he would be able to see the world in a similar way to that of the Akumas, he would develop some sort of empathy towards the Akuma (Noahs included), which he seems to have developed, or at least, up to some extent.
