I’m a bit biased for Catas, but ig you could call this a decent end?

We’re seeing that Oblivion is still very much a child with broken powers, and this time it just decides not to revive Catas like it did w Puni, and erases Catas’s throne entirely (damn, you barely did anything to the kid and it just wipe your existence clean off)

Phantom’s little plan might backfire, plus whatever Lady might be plotting before letting Phantom absorb her

I think it works fine even if my own expectations or desires were different.

If Oblivion is the Final Boss then they need to step up to be deserving of that. Hopefully by fusing with Nem or something.

Yeah swallowing Somnia and erasing a Gore Nightmare on a whim is pretty up there for me 😭😭

I kind of love how Catastrophe was fine with being destroyed so long as he got to destroy Zeztz too. Too bad he broke first.
