While reading this chapter...something feels off. Mimi feels off...Last time that smile and how he behaved reminded me so much of Stone...but in todays chapter... He doesn't feel like either Mimi or Stone....this innocent, protective feeling that Mimi usually gives is not there?
...
So my brain remembered something. Mimi was soaked in Nunu's blood. I repeat: “Whether it's sacrificing one of my hands, or just making noise in my head! Mekhemes! Summon! (Shining light) -.-...I mean I already guessed that they will become one someday....but...are they already mixed? Mimi feels so strange...Also, when his future self could become a god...soaked in blood of a god...<<why not him too..?>> (Fact, Nunu could only see the future because of Ah Li showing him...but he has all of his memories from last life...) => Like really... Mimi feels so different
Regarding the crack in the chest...either the heart is already turning into a stone or the heart has already disappeared. I looked at the last chapter again; his reaction was really too much. Him looking scared when Ah Li tried to touch his breast...and then showed him the cracks on his stomach to kinda get out of the situation.
And today's chapter...when Ah Li hugged him from behind...-.- I think Mimi...or Mimi/Nunu kinda know that they are going to die soon...
Another thought...Its crazy but...could it be that the heart is Ah Lis? His blood awakened the heart stone...and therefore Stone. There is one thing we all already kinda recognised. We got Nunus timeline, and now we have Mimis timeline. There is a third one, and thats Stone's timeline. There are too many small hints at the beginning of the story. Stone's timeline already happened! Ah Li sacrificing his heart...because Mimi's heart turned to stone or kinda disappeared because of the cracks and Anubis/Nunus blood. Ah Li always chooses Mimi...even if it means sacrificing his life for Mimi...
Stone awakened through Ah Lis blood...Nunu was also turned into a statue but died and became a good...something is not right...why the change when they are both the same person? Nunu never met another Anubis, right?
GIRL HOLD ON–YOU ONTO SOMETHING
The first theory is INSANEEE im mindblown fr
As for the second, i just realised i might've been the only one to think of it this way so i may be wrong, but i always thought nunu and rocky were one and the same.
We know that in nunu's timeline or rather 1st mehemis's timeline, he turned into a tyrant in the end and was casted into a living statue by his people.
If we recall the origin of nunu we see that he mentioned after he was turned into the statue/later on died AS the statue, his soul could't let go of the destruction that befalled the nation of ebiz and that was how his soul came across the fragment of real anubis' shattered power while wandering between life and death, thus manifesting the powers of a god and turning into one.
And so i always thought that maybe the manifestation turned the heart of the 1st mehemis into the red gemstone (called as the bloody sapphire or smth similar in one of the episodes) along with his stone body, which would stand for centuries until meeting Li in the future while turning his soul into the god we know as nunu
I like to think that this somehow shows the connection btw the way rocky shattered and died and nunu's power of petrifying people and turning them into stone ash. Also how nunu is now living within or can connect to them through the lotus rocky gave li.
But despite my wishful thinking, this still doesnt explain how rocky recognised li in the future if nunu had no idea of who he was
Mimi’s smile at the end… it really looks like Stone now, especially in the eyes. There used to be a subtle difference between them—in their expressions and behavior—but that gap is disappearing. It honestly feels like the final countdown has started.
And Ah Li… I feel so bad for him. The chapter itself isn’t openly heartbreaking, but there’s this constant sense that something isn’t right underneath it all.
Mimi taking the cloth and wiping the makeup off the cracks on his body himself—before Ah Li could even do it—felt very deliberate. Like he wanted to control what was being revealed… or hide how bad it really is. Since the cracks are actually real, it makes that moment so much heavier. It feels like he didn’t want Ah Li to see how far they’ve already spread—especially around his heart, as if that’s where it’s worst. Honestly, it could mean his whole body is already covered.
And then telling Ah Li that the “sickness” appeared at the same time as the others, even though we know it started earlier… that felt intentional too. Like he’s hiding the truth.
At this point, I can’t shake the feeling that Mimi already knows—that the “stone” Ah Li keeps talking about… is actually him.
Once he was a storm that hunted monsters in the dark. Now he’s just a bird in a gilded cage beside the one he loves, wings folded, slowly withering in the same quiet that once broke his mother. Watching him like this, you can almost feel him holding his breath, as if any moment he might hyperventilate, as if his very existence has begun to feel meaningless...pitiful Tei.
The situation makes me angry... Shuraka is killing him with his so-called love slowly.
And Shuraka? When he was young, he felt more like an adult than now. Now, he feels like a real child in a big body...power and bloodshed alone do not make one an adult.
Is he really interested in Tei? I mean, he did not even know about his brother, or more like his family situation? It feels more like someone seeking warmth and faithfulness, not betrayal. I did not see it at first, but now... I get Tei when he thinks that Shuraka just imprinted on him like a baby bird to a mother bird...
I don't know... since their reunion...Shuraka did not once make Tei feel secure or happy... He is not even aware of it... just thinking of himself again and again... a child!
Still, I guess Shuraka asked the male concubine how to prepare Tei for ....... hopefully...
“Slowly withering in the same quiet that once broke his mother” it’s so painful to see tei like this Shuraka never explains anything to him and his self esteem is so low he cannot even begin to think he is worthy of anything.
After a pandemic, we even got cannibalism. One thing you really have to appreciate is the author—it never gets boring.
Bro looked at the apocalypse checklist and said: “Yes.”
This chapter...it's like they speak about 2 different things? It's so confusing. Tei is afraid that Shuraka is dying, even telling him this, and Shuraka answers.... you are mine...I am the king?? I mean...darling...you probably killed all your brothers to become king and get Tei back...dying now because of your libido...come on...Does a king not get like a sxx education???????
i think he's scared of hurting tei
Oh my...I completely overlooked an important detail in Chapter 4. When the Heartstone begins to shine and time reverses, we see the flower. That moment feels crucial. The Heartstone, literally Stone’s heart, appears to be the flower itself. Mimi is Stone.
Mimi creates the flower in the future. In the past, Nunu places his soul into that same flower. This creates a closed time loop. The flower becomes the Heartstone. The Heartstone becomes Stone. And Stone is ultimately Mimi. It was never about someone inheriting power. It was always Mimi becoming it.
Ah Li’s soul, however, seems to have shattered, and his memories were lost. That detail feels intentional. In time loop stories, memory loss often represents imbalance or sacrifice. If Nunu preserves part of himself in the flower and Mimi becomes the vessel that carries it, then Ah Li losing his memories may be the emotional cost of stabilizing everything. One soul endures. One soul merges. One soul forgets.
I also believe Mimi is still going to die in the past, even in the current timeline. The loop likely depends on it. His death might not be something that can be avoided because without it, Stone cannot exist. The real question is how he dies. Is he killed, does he die of old age, or does he choose to let go? Each possibility carries a different emotional meaning, but all of them could still lead to the same outcome.
What makes this even more powerful is that Mimi has already tried to merge with Nunu when Nunu died. That suggests the merge was always meant to happen, but was incomplete before. If Mimi is seriously injured or near death, or if he simply longs to meet Ah Li again, then Nunu’s final fragment of soul could help him complete the transformation into Stone. The merge would not just be about power. It would be about reunion.
In that sense, Stone is not just an object. It is Mimi and the last remaining part of Nunu combined. It was never someone else. It was always Mimi.
hello I've let this marinate for too long that i forgot who nunu and mimi are can you elaborate?
Wow that makes sense
Wait i frgt who nunu was... I took a break to let the chapters pile up.. Can't wait to binghed read them
Piggybacking off this, Mimi may choose to be entombed there if the soul flower is activated and returns time/course corrects and sends Ah Li back where he belongs since at this point he wouldn’t wish to be without him. Knowing that his death/entombment would bring them to each other in a different point in time (even if no long HIS point as hed be Stone) may bring him a sense of comfort after experiencing Nunus timeline.
Because it wouldn’t make sense for only Mimi to be sacrificed since Ah Li doesn’t belong in this timeline.
Mimi is our handsome/pretty (in his case both) king... and Nunu.... you have to read the chapter... you will get emotional... I dont want to spoiler this particular info.
Spoiler.....(probably)
Good guess... if we think about it...Ah Lis' blood brought Stone to life...as if already prepared beforehand. It's probably quite a realistic possibility that he chose this place as his tomb because he knows that's where he is going to meet Ah Li. I read another theory from someone else that maybe they both died of old age, and Ah Li was also in the tomb. I was quite happy with this theory. However, there are no bones, and Mimi is still a stone statue... so I do not think that is possible. Also, another problem is that from Nunu's perspective, we see in one chapter that he was forced to become a stone statue...
Still, I know it's fate. Them being happy that they survived the day Mimi died in the first timeline makes me kinda sad. It's still going to happen...why? Without this...Nunus timeline is going to repeat itself again.
I think deep down Ah Li is already aware of this. That's why he is going crazy in the current chapters.
Literally nothing worse than a self fulfilling prophecy and having a set up for a happy ending you know will never come/can’t be allowed to exist
Spoiler.....
Our Alpha finally cried... he is free from his self-made catch. After all this time, we can finally see him lose his facade step by step. Also, the green jacket! Love it
OK, Stone is definitely Mimi! Why? At the beginning, Stone brings him presents, pomegranate, grapes, and frogs. Nunu does not know what Ah Li likes, but Mimi knows because of the research/report in chapter 16. I know Nunu took over his body, but I do not think that he get to know this information. Also, looking back Ah Li was looking at the statue and thought...where do I know this face from. My guess is that Ah Li somehow has to return to the future and loses his memory and Mimi cannot follow him. Again looking at the necklace, maybe Nunu in the flower form is somehow able to change Mimi's body to stone to let him meet Ah Li again. The heart is also important. Since Nunu and Mimi have the same heart, even though we see that Nunu dies because of the stone heart, Mimis heart will also change to the same form as soon as he turns to stone. I mean looking at the beginning, it was so important for Stone to finish the necklace. Why was it so important before his body was destroyed? He knows the future/past where he meets Ah Li, and the only way to get him back to meet his old self is the necklace. Without the necklace Nunu is not able to stay in the flower form and finally help Mimi to turn him into stone and let him meet Ah Li. Also, maybe it sounds funny but Nunu and Mimi have completely different vibes and Stone definitely feels more like Mimi's happy self.
╮(￣▽￣)╭
Furthermore........(Maybe spoiler?)
urther thoughts, when Nunu kinda hurt Ah Li's soul he told him that a soul consists of memories and when Ah Li's soul gets hurt again, he will lose his memories. He will return to the future before everything happens so the statue will look familiar. I guess there will be a final happening, I am not sure who is gonna be the last villain to appear... I am still not sure about Sute's Brother-puppet... he got his own soul maybe?....So maybe him?....But Ah Li must return to the future and he will lose his memories because his soul will get hurt once again. To create the current timeline and because Mimi really want to see Ah Li. Mimi with the help of Nunu (the flower) will turn to Stone? Even though we know that Nunu returned to the past as a g**/soul, we do not know if he is able to send a whole body to the future(Mimi). Therefore, the only way to send Mimi to the future and create the current timeline is to put Mimi's soul into the stone statue. I guess that Mimi and Nunu will then become one person. However, again Stone is definiely Mimi like I statet before. Nunu did not even know Ah Li when he took over Mimis body (he could not see his memories) so how should he know that Ah Li likes pomegranate, grapes and frogs. Mimi/Stone creates the flower for the future he is aware of. The stone heart is the only thing I am not sure about. Nunu was called by offering Sutes Body. He was able to create the dead soldiers. Nunu statet that he got the power (turning people to stone or crumbling their bodies) when he was called through Sutes offering. But now Nunu was killed with this heart stone...again Mimi and Nunu has to become one. There is no other logical way....any ideas?
I also do think that Mimi is rocky. I do think that nunu is from another timeline. And that nunu maybe will help mimi to get to the future somehow. As you already said only meme knows about the frog and so on. In chapter 92 we can see Mimi heart has a little crack. I already feel like someone already did something to Mimi. Maybe Li did already already meet Mimi once similar to the current timeline. He just couldn’t stop the destruction and something happened. And he got back to the future and couldn’t remember. Then episode one start where Mimi said: long time no see. Maybe they stuck in a loop. And this time is the final timeline where they get a happy end I can’t wait for the next season!!
Sorry I meant chapter 93, we saw a little crack on his heart/body..
You genuinely helped me understand the story of the new arc more thanks!!
Ok…we got a new brother? No idea how to put him in the puzzle? Someone new to take the throne so Mimi can leave, maybe to another timeline? What did the man say….Xiaomi has high talent, help in the experimental grounds, confidence to speak with the adults… king material...people depend on him and trust him??
Then we got the hanging bodies… demigods. My first thought was…there are no faces, but they all look the same size… It’s possible to summon people from different timelines, right? Could be a demigod that was summoned from various timelines. One person with golden blood, but summoned from different timelines and always killed. No further ideas here...
Mimi’s ‘‘resurrection‘‘ statement…I mean, he feels kinda scary there? Why? Before, I've already felt that Mimi seems kinda different…but in the last chapters, he felt like his old version again...It's strange. There are moments that he definitely feels off...Anyone who agrees??? ╮(￣▽￣)╭
