I figured that after you brought him up and didn't do much with him that the Shu Yaoguai would appear at the ending and you did not disappoint. The fact that it was all of the emperor was a nice little twist considering how he's been getting quite a few mentions all throughout this part of the story. And of course that's what I'm mentioning the fact that he appeared at just as Aksel was pretty much high off things going according to plan only to have his weakness come at him out of nowhere. I really feel like the pop culture references were definitely turned up to 11 here. We got some Mulan stuff as well as Dragon Ball Z. And that Frozen Bridge too. Not sure how exactly people might react to all that but to me I feel like it definitely does hey good job at showcasing how Aksel it's just a normal guy in an abnormal situation. If nothing else stuff like the bridge really goes to show how he is when he's enjoying himself. And also I'm not sure this is intentional on your part but the pop culture references are from sources which are less likely to date the story as time goes on so I think that they were well picked in my opinion. However the most important part was the backstory we got on Ziyi after her rather severe reaction to being captured. Nothing else it's certainly allows for a more intimate talk between the two of them in which they declare their love for each other. And also mention the biggest threat of the story so far. So yeah, as I'm sure you can see, this chapter certainly left me with no shortage of things to say. And that to me is a sign of a chapter well done.
