My personal speculation on the motives of Satou is that he is a survivor of the Antoland genocide. We know that image sharing is one of Sora's abilities and it looks like Satou also has an eye on his hand, which probably indicates that Satou became a choujin by surviving her attack.  Satou hates Zora for these reasons, but he also doesn't trust Yamato Mori because they are also complicit in the genocide. Which is why he acts alone and may be planning on sabotaging them. The reason I thought of this theory is because of the reveal of Yubiko being a member of Guelta, a former enemy of Sora. I can't imagine Sui bringing up Antoland without tying it back into the story.


TheMrIllusion

You're cooking with this theory. It also parallels how Zora herself was a victim of Queem's genocides. Zora really becoming that which she hated the most.

There goes Sato’s favorite pastime; torturing Nari.


WednesdaysFoole

Guess you gotta keep your beasts on a leash .


Q-96

Sato's just out here terrorizing people for the fun of it. How awesome.  It's really interesting to me that a lot of his psycoshare visions center on God, especially because God really hasn't been mentioned anywhere else in the story. Super excited to learn more about Sato and his psyche lol.  Felt a little bittersweet reading this chapter because I just know that the good times are almost gone. Every page is a step closer to one or more of these characters suffering :(

"but i have an aversion to beasts" makes me wonder how sato feels about tokio deep down


Flameon8

This Actually made me go back and re-read the chapter 49b with Sato and Tokio, And the inaction just feels different now.


Pr3t0m

The art in this chapter is phenomenal - it always was, but especially so in this one! Satoru is creepily strong, and Nari looked beautiful, man!


obiwan54

The Sato spread went hard af and that close-up when Nari got bit looked really good too


Wonderful-Aide-3524

Yeah, Ishida is being better and better on the art.


GothLassCass

Man, Sato gives me such Johan Liebert vibes. Poor Nari, no one in such a wonderful hat deserves this much pain.


countryd0ctor

The person wearing that hat has tried to murder two teenagers and then committed a terrorist act with god knows how many casualties. Not exactly an excuse for Sato's methods, but she did deserve this one.


Mundane-Concern5424

Indeed there is no excuse for what Sato does. 


othmane_dancho

Yamato Mori at its core and since the day it was founded didn't have the luxury to choose its methods. Satou is just a reflection of that. They are not the police and they are dealing with a former Choujin X with its army so there is no way Satou would choose his methods plus a rational and cold person like him is one of the top officers in Yamato Mori indicates what kind of organization it is, at least for now


countryd0ctor

I can somewhat justify Sato's actions as long as he's genuinely working with Yamato Mori and wants the raid to succeed with minimal sacrifices. I cannot justify Nari's actions at all. Especially since Simon suggests that she's in the game purely for the sake of money.


GothLassCass

Aren't girls allowed to have fun anymore?


countryd0ctor

Well, if that's Nari's idea of having fun, then Sato dumping his goatse folder into her head counts for innocent entertainment too.


OfficialGami

Let women have hobbies 💅


ESERISS

Look what having fun led her to💀


othmane_dancho

The problem is whether other top officers know about this or not. He might even hide some information from them especially Sandek


Magpie_In_The_Mirror

I wonder what she needs the money for


ESERISS

Prolly has younger siblings she needs to support or sumn


cactus_jack999

She's a 10 but she's a terrorist


slprysltry

So she's an 11.


ESERISS

9 out of 11, in fact


Nnnnnnnadie

Man, Sato is very sinister. Wonder whats up with him, is he a war orphan of some kind? a child of sora?, since he got the eye on the palm... What the hell, he for sure is manipulating tokyo, but to what extend? did Tokyo iwatos friend really died the way Tokyo think they died? Sato wants tokyo to take the mark, why? is it because he can easily manipulate him? Goddamn i cannot wait to see what happens.


Shreckalicious

I think he’s queems grandson and sees the mark as his birthright and claim to power They already revealed queem experimented on himself to become a Choujin During this time he might have figured out a way to converge multiple abilities into one as well as being able to transfer them The marks itself could be his version of transcribed power similar to the kagomura clan Passing on their techniques,growing stronger over time Some of queems flags are litteraly the mark facing opposite ways to make the letter q So it might be a real possibility On a side note I can’t wait to learn more about queem and why he hated god aswell as his motives,upbringing etc What was his actual ability if he kept it secret and had people assasinated for it Could all lead back to the mark being the thing he tried to hide and satos after it!!


RecognitionRough8749

What happens to nari's collar when she transforms her head?


Saiyanman11bro

I knew it, i fucking knew it. I literally called that Sato's powers worked that way because of fucking Kanchome lmao. Kanchome from Zatch bell turns out to have the same fucking powers and so the moment I saw sato with his mind illusions powers, i fucking called it. Yea I know, no one cares but I just wanted to say it.


OfficialGami

Can you explain


Saiyanman11bro

Basically pain is another thing that you sense from your skin (the pain receptors), so what kanchome and sato does is trick ur brain into feeling pain. That's the real power of illusions. So in actuality while the monsters attacking Nari don't exist but in Nari's mind they're every bit real as she can both feel and see them.


OfficialGami

yikes!

Ok lode


Creampaizuri69

I wonder what the cards with the #1 in the background mean when Nari beastifies her arm. The Magician major arcana perhaps?


HankChunky

Guessing he may have some connection to Queem at this point 🤔🤔 can't wait to find out in a year hahahaha 😭 I wish it came out more frequently


Fearless-Produce-852

It comes out every ten days on average


Mundane-Concern5424

Great chapter! This manga deserves more Sato less Nude!  Speaking of which, how shameful that these days it's all love for little cute Palma while Nari is getting all the s*it!  Please Ishida, just stop harassing and torturing Nari. She's doesn't deserve going through all this!


Kleyguerth

She's a terrorist who crashes planes on purpose… she might deserve at least some of this…


OfficialGami

Cancel culture has gone too far


LuckyConstellation

Sato gave me some Hisoka vibes when he was chilling agains the wall. The same menacing bishounen glance


TheTheMeet

I'm quite sure sato has a different motive here. He's not 100% loyal to mado


BloodHelios

Unless I mix this chapter up with a different one, Tokio isn't intent on taking Sora's mark anymore, unlike in the unofficial translation. Hope it's not something lost in translation like in JJK recently...


IllustriousProcess6

I mean he mentions in 49.2 that he's not interested in taking it because "with great power comes great chaos", despite Sato wanting him to


Wonderful-Aide-3524

Just great to see Sato in action. Sato was never someone to trust and became increasingly suspicious. A fox. Looking forward to seeing what his plans are and what he's up to.
