AstroNerdBoy UQ Holder Chapter 178 SPOILER Info
Here is some SPOILER info for the upcoming UQ Holder Chapter 178, courtesy of of the French publisher, Pika Edition. (My review of the chaptershould come out as soon as they appear on comiXology, depending on when they publish the chapter…which is faster than Crunchyroll.)
* * * * * * SPOILERS * * * * * *
Here’s what Pika Edition had to say for their chapter blurb.
Installé depuis peu à Neo-Djakarta, Tôta est en train de remplir une mission pour aider les habitants des bidonvilles lorsqu’il est contacté par son vieil ami Ikkû Ameya. Fou de joie, il pense avoir enfin retrouvé la trace de ses anciens compagnons. Mais sa joie n’est que de courte de durée, car il s’agissait d’un piège tendu par ses ennemis…
And the Google translation.
Recently settled in Neo-Djakarta, Tôta is completing a mission to help the inhabitants of the slums when he is contacted by his old friend Ikkû Ameya. Mad with joy, he thinks he has finally found the trace of his former companions. But his joy is only short-lived, because it was a trap set by his enemies …
I’ll admit, I’d forgotten about Ikkuu, who’s a machine. Hard to say whether Ikkuu is alive still or not. His physical body was in a hospital, but could be dead now. And his robot body would be easy to replicate to fool Touta.
Anyway, no spoiler images that I’m aware of. The Japanese seem to be obsessed with discussing Kuroumaru as a lovely girl. But if they decide to post some spoilers, I’ll be sure to share.

One one hand, if the rest of characters start coming back from here, that’s too predictable.
On the other hand, if they don’t start coming back as a result from this, it’s going to get really grating. Touta can’t hold a series all on his own, I don’t think anyone wants to see him keep angsting all alone for more and more chapters, and it’s too late to build a new cast for him. One that most likely would just job like the prior one anyway.
Heh. Yeah, that is the dilemma of the series. But I would eventually like to see the others back, even if that is the expected route to follow.
Astro,if you want to see some spoiler image you now can see it on bookwalker ^_^✓
Oh, so it’s ANOTHER Lotus Eater Machine.
Not only we are going to waste MORE runtime, probably chapters, in ANOTHER bit that isn’t even reality, but it’s ANOTHER idea recycled AGAIN from Negima.
Thanks! I’m about to read the chapter now.
I’ve read the whole chapter, i have entirely strong feeling….were reading two parallel universes, and Totu is crossing between them.
Just read the chapter…not sure. The group could have been hiding in Dana’s realm, waiting to pounce at the right time.
