Focke Wulf 189 Uhu

The plane that actually won Germany’s specification for a short-ranged recon aircraft. (Although I also love Blohm & Voss’s entry, the BV 141).

Realized 2 Things about Camilla in the Succession War

While pondering recent chapters, I realized two things about Camilla in the Succession War:

(1) Camilla is where Beyond's curse can backfire on him.
Imagine that one of Beyond's cursed kids dies in the Succession War.
Imagine that this kid's particular curse targets Camilla.
If Beyond's curse kills Camilla, Cat's Name is going to go after the one responsible for her death.
That person would have to be Beyond.
So did Beyond just set himself up?
>!Additional point/ramifications: Beyond is ridiculously smart and capable.!<
>!He's determined to get to the DC no matter what.!<
>!416 (EDIT: actually in 415, during the phone call) revealed he did his homework and even knows what Benjamin's Nen ability is.!<
>!But does this mean he also knows Camilla is a Nen-user and what her ability is?!<
>!And thus wouldn't he foresee the possibility that it could bite him in the ass should it get mixed up with his curse plot?!<
>!Which now makes me wonder if the effects of the curses he put on his kids may be something else other than lethal just in case?!<

(2) The Have-Nots' Dust in the Wind is actually an excellent- if not perfect- counter for Camilla's Cat's Name.
The assassin is dead even before Cat's Name activates (part of Benjamin's current rationale).
Cat's Name has no target and thus has no source of life to squish and drain to resurrect Camilla.
(TBH, pretty much any lethal suicide attack can do it.)
But also: the Have-Nots' curse's specific effect is to deprive their victims of their aura besides ultimately killing them.
Cat's Name may not be able to active if she loses her aura.
This means that Camilla may not be able to pre-empt the curse killing her by having someone else kill her before Dust in the Wind does.
Pretty careful and clever of Togashi if he foresaw this and thus deliberately had the Have-Nots be her guard in the storyline.

Born from an obsessession with the concept of the "lifting body" where Burnelli believed that the traditional design fuselage was wasteful.

TIL that Mexican Cardinal Juan Jesus Posadas was killed in 1993 in the crossfire of an attempted assassination on drug lord Joaquin "El Chapo" Guzman at Guadalajara International Airport where the cardinal was supposed to meet a Vatican ambassador while El Chapo was catching a flight to a beach.
