“Look, Knockout…I know it’s our job to obey Megatron, but I think this guy’s a lost cause..”
Finally finished re-reading all of D. Gray Man and basking in the glory of the Millennium Earl and his hee-hee fun times antics with the noahs
Realizing that we probably won’t see the hee-hee fun time Millennium Earl for the rest of the series
D. Gray Man manga spoilers
I don’t think I ever seen anyone discuss this, not even the wiki, but I always thought Mana’s name might’ve been a reference to The Gathering of Mana, an event where God showered his followers subsidence to eat during the exodus and considering how Nea’s goal is to “eat” Mana/The Millennium Earl… But if Mana’s name is a possible reference to The Gathering of Mana, then I wonder what significance does Nea and Allen’s name have and how they tie together.
Idk, this has been in my mind since I first read the manga but never really thought it was anything deeper until chapter 219
Hoshino, you sneaky bastard. Neah in the Hebrew context means “moving”

@gay-impressionist and everyone else who might be curious: it’s all about the control they have over their muscles. Georgian dancers are renowned (at least in the theatre world) for having some of the most complex footwork— while the males are supposed to dance mostly through their feet and keep their upper half as rigid as possible, the female dancers are supposed to express themselves through their hands and heads only, their skirts concealing their walking/gliding.
What is happening is that Georgian dancers and ballet dancers are pretty similar when it comes to the effort they must use in order to show themselves as graceful on stage as possible, but while ballet dancers are using pointes to hold themselves on their toes during certain movements, female Georgian dancers wear shoes that have a bit of high heels and are, more or less, tiptoeing across the stage, with steps as small and quick as possible so the audience doesn’t have a chance to pay attention to the way their skirts spin everytime they take another step.
tl;dr The secret is that they are tiptoeing as fast as they can in the rythm of the music while keeping up the appearance that they are gliding across the floor.
I am not a Georgian, nor have I trained myself in their traditional dances, but I appreciate their culture’s dances so I thought I might explain what is actually happening (sorry if that didn’t make too much sense, I am not a professional dancer, just a very observant admirator).
That is very cool, and the explanation makes the dancing even more impressive! Thanks for the info!
On a similar note, when I read about some character moving so smoothly they appear to glide over the floor, I will be imagining they’re taking tiny fast steps.
Caramelldansen turns 20 this year and frankly I am not prepared for that.
So it's settled? When November 2 rolls around, we're all laying facedown and blasting Caramelldansen?
this is how every day at work has got me feeling
This is so accurate it hurts.
Change my mind 😹
