Bookman WeeklyFeel the need to discuss the newest exciting chapters of D.Gray-man? Probably not..ah well, you can go now. Just kidding! Chapters released weekly shall be announced and discussed here. No spoiler tags needed!
Happy Holidays, Divinity! SBL here, bringing you the monthly chapter of awesomeness!
So, this time around, we have The 189th Night of D.Gray-Man.
In last week's (old habit, sorry) month's chapter, "Blood of the Holy War", the Earl's assault on the North American Branch of the Order took an unexpected turn when the scientists were herded into a room with the Earl and his Noah minions holding various high-ranking Order members hostage (though Komui was noticeably missing).
Kanda -- with a crushed skull, though already regenerating -- was there as well, along with another motionless figure. As the swordsman awoke and took in his surroundings, he realized that the figure beside him was Alma Karma, the other "Second Exorcist" (the only other survivor of the Second Exorcist experiment) and the apparent "Womb" that created the Third Exorcists. He barely had time to register what was going on -- though he did indicate that Alma is "That Person" that he's been looking for all this time -- before all hell broke loose. Wisely and Cyril mentioned having the Second Exorcists go on a rampage to kill all the Order members there, a reenactment of a previous tragedy nine years ago.
Even more intriguing, the Earl seemed to be waiting for Allen to arrive, which he did, in quite dramatic fashion, even knocking the Earl's top hat off.
So where will Hoshino take us next? Stay tuned for the 189th Night to see what's next!

RAWs/scanlations/spoilers/translations are to be placed in post #2. (Be sure that you adhere to the Bookman Weekly rules. Don't make Tyki-pon or myself come after you with a stick. It won't be pretty!)
Oh, this is my favorite chapter of the recent ones (I've found them very boring.) Kanda biting Road's dress redeemed him in my eyes. Kanda was great in this chapter. And I feel extremely spoiled: I expected maybe just 14th talking or 14th pic, but the two put together just... *insertfangirlynoiseshere*
The 14th on page 14 scared the shit out of me. The last time I saw that creepy an exchange was from Kirakishou in Rozen Maiden. Both are just freaking scary.
What I'm really wondering now is why Cross told Allen to 'listen to the 14th'. I don't think Cross would say that if the 14th really was an absolute bad guy. He certainly isn't all good though (damn that psychotic grin of his.)
Oh boy, Leverrier is certainly regretting keeping Allen around now.
Ironic chapter name. Apparently this chapter is called "The Voice of Judas" (credit to aorin of Mangahelpers.)

Ah my goodness, what a terribly exciting chapter! Here're some rough translations if you guys wanna refer to it : D
The title was quite interesting...literally it can mean "The Voice of Judas", since it's "Yuda no KOE", but the kanji used for "koe" can mean "to call"/"to summon"...so I left it as both, since they have different connotations (:
Apologies for discrepancies/mistakes, and thank you Defade for correcting some of them! The edited version~ : D
Chapter 189 Rough Translations: Pages 1-14
The 189th Night: The Voice of Judas / Judas’ Call
[pg 2]
Link: The AKUMA virus, huh…
The thickness of the gas very much indicates the number of dead people there are…so this base is completely destroyed, isn’t it? [The Remains of the Slaughter…]
[pg 3]
Tevak: That Noah left only me alive…
Link: Ah…you’ve woken up.
You were making a lot of noise while you were unconscious, what happened?
Tevak: There were…weird images in my head all of a sudden…
Link: Images?
Tevak: The image that…just before Allen Walker is about to kill Brother and Tokusa…I kill him, first.
[pg 4]
Tevak: I’ve seen that place before. It is the hall of the first womb.
I think the Noahs are trying to say that these are the events that are going to happen from now on.
…what is it?
Link: As Allen Walker’s supervisor, I have heard some things that I cannot just let go unseen to.
Tevak: …so what is it?
Link: Until I have found and confirmed the location of Allen Walker I request that you be under my charge.
You want to go and help them, don’t you, Tevak?
I will go with you.
[pg 5]
Tyki: Scram scram scram!
I told you to scram already…
Allen: E-earl?!
[pg 6]
Tyki: Welcome, Allen Walker.
[pg 7]
Allen: What…what is up with all this?
Bak: Walker?
Lveille: Why would Walker be…
Allen: Even Section Chief Reever and Johnny?!
[Bitter tears]
Reever: Sorry, Allen…
Johnny: We’ve become hostages again…
Peck: Eh? We can speak?
Allen: Ah! You did say that there was a conference at the North American branch today…
Meaning that this place is…
[pg 8]
Allen: Kanda?
But…why…
Weren’t you supposed to be guarding the Jordan base?
Sheryl: That base has been completely destroyed.
Are you shocked?
And you were planning to come to the rescue of these Third Exorcists too.
[pg 9]
Allen: Tokusa!
Tokusa: …Apostle…what happened to Madarao…
Tyki: Ahhh, he is facing down Mercima now~
Tokusa: Please…be careful! I don’t know what skill this is but this Noah can control other people’s bodies! He broke my legs without even touching them…!
Sheryl: Exactly. I’m terribly sorry but all the humans in this building are already under my control, the control of the Noah of Desire.
[pg 10]
Sheryl: I guess you can think of me as the sadistic type.
If you don’t want your friends to become sacrifices…or should I say, if you don’t want them to continue staying in that ridiculous pose you’d better do as I say.
The scientists: What on earth does he mean by…?!
Allen: …you’re telling me to let you kill me without making a fuss?
(Why are all the Noahs such perverts?!)
Sheryl: Aww, we Noahs just don’t like to say such boring things…
By the by, I’d thank you not to forget that it is our Millennium Earl that you’re standing on? (You too, Tyki.)
Tyki: Boy, we’ve actually come to welcome you back.
Allen: Haa? What do you mean by welcome, I’m your enemy –
[pg 11]
Allen: GAH!
Ug…
Earl: Allen Walker…from now on you shall never return to the Order again.
You weren’t just given the rights of the musician left behind by the 14th!
You are the 14th, aren’t you!
Tyki: …that’s the reason for welcoming you.
Earl: Ahh, you fooled us all along, didn’t you, you little clown.
[pg 12]
Lveille: What?!
Bak: It was leaked out…to the Earl?
Johnny: Allen is the 14th?!
Earl: You know, don’t you, that the Millennium Earl creates the AKUMA. They are our limbs, they are our eyes. That time you called out to us through an AKUMA, didn’t you?
Allen: That…time…? Flashback: The 14th: Good morning…
Earl: It was such a huge shock to all of us…
Allen: What are you talking…! I’ve never done such a…!
[pg 13]
The 14th: It is exactly as you said.
I had wanted to tell you that I have returned.
[pg 14]
Earl: The…14th…!
The 14th: I had expected you to come, brother…
This time I’ll kill you.
Once I kill you I will become the Millennium Earl!

Reason: Edited some mistakes - thanks, Defade!
[pg 15]
Earl: Is that…your wish, 14th…?
Allen: Nn…N-OOO!
NO! I’m not the 14th!
[pg 16]
Allen: Ugh…GAH!
What’s this – what’s this rumbling, trembling feeling in my body… Cross (past): The implanted memories will slowly invade the host body. You will likely become the 14th. Once you become the 14th, you will have no choice but to kill the humans you love.
[pg 17]
Allen: Ug…AHHHHHHHH!
I won’t…I WON’T LET THAT HAPPEN!
Earl: Augh!
[pg 18]
Earl: You just…your head…!
Allen: Okay, Earl…and the 14th, you listen up closely too…
Wisely: Oh ho…
Allen: I, Allen Walker, am an Exorcist! I will not be anything else even if I’m dead! Do not drag me into this sibling conflict that I know nothing about, it is terribly troublesome!
[pg 19]
Wisely: Road, that guy is kinda interesting…
…Millennie!!
Earl: Mm?!
[pg 20]
Kanda: Che!
Sheryl: My precious Road! WHAT ON EARTH WERE YOU DOING WISELY?!
Wisely: Ah, I really am not made for fighting…
Allen: THERE!
Sheryl: Uwah?!
Allen: Are you alright, Tokusa!
Kanda! You can move?
[pg 21]
Kanda: So what if I can?
Allen: (Hmph, he still hasn’t changed, as infuriating as ever.) …I didn’t mean anything by that. It’s just you weren’t moving at all before this, I couldn’t help but take note of that.
Kanda: My head was bashed in and when I woke up I was here. I had to take some time to assess the situation.
Road: Gya – what are you doing, you pervert!
Kanda: Shut up. Your brothers broke my hair tie, give me your ribbon.
Allen: So that’s the only reason you grabbed onto her?
Tokusa: In any case, let’s step back and reassess the situation, shall we…
[pg 22]
Bak: Wha-wha-wha-what is this!
Zu: The pipes broke through Alma's water tank?!
Allen: Damn! The exit is –
Sheryl: Do you lowly beings really understand the situation? Especially you, 14th. We said we won’t let you go back to the Black Order ever again, didn’t we?
[pg 24]
Earl: Allen Walker – I guess we can give you the courtesy of abandoning the Order and coming to us yourself. Today is the day of the party in celebration of your withdrawal from the Order~
Allen: (Who the hell is dropping out of the Order?) Who…is that?
Tokusa: That’s the first womb from which us Third Exorcists are created, Alma=Karma. Like Kanda Yu, he was an experimental body in the artificial apostle project.
Allen: Eh?
[pg 25]
Kanda: Who the hell is that?
Everybody: …eh???
Earl: What…did you just say?
Kanda: I said, who the hell is that?
Kanda: Who the hell is that?
[pg 26]
Earl: Wisely?
Wisely: Why are you guys glaring at me…?
Hmm? Hmm…wait a minute…
Bak: Don’t tell me…Kanda doesn’t recognize Alma now that he looks different?
Zu: That’s impossible.
It’s impossible that that child wouldn’t know Alma…
Road: Maaaan, what are you talking about? That’s Alma! The failed experiment that you killed nine years ago –
[pg 27]
Kanda: That guy is dead.
Road: …but he is alive.
[pg 28]
Road: Even though he has been deformed he is still alive, the Order hid it all these years –
Kanda: Do you want me to crush you?
Road: - they hid him and made you bear Alma's sins~ in the name of the 'Holy War'~ and for nine years to boot~
And in the end they have implanted the AKUMA plant fragments into him and are using him as a living puppet for the Order~
*crush*
Road: What is it~ aren’t you happy to see Alma?
[pg 29]
Road: Unless you're telling me it has something to do with that woman - "that person" who made you kill Alma?
Allen: Calm down, Kanda.
[pg 30]
Allen: You know that these attacks are useless to Road.
Don’t get caught up by their taunts.
These guys are using you for something they’re planning!
We have to help those who were captured by them!
Think only about that –
Road: That’s alright~ if he doesn’t believe what Alma has to say~
[pg 31]
Road: We’ll make you believe Alma himself~!
Wisely: Didn’t I say it when we met, Kanda Yuu. “Let us use your brain for Alma=Karma’s awakening!”
[pg 32]
Allen/Kanda: What –
Tokusa: Don’t look at it, Walker!
Zu: KANDA!!!
[pg 33] Alma: Hey, are you awake?
Hey, are you…awake? You woken up already?
[pg 34] Alma: If you’re awake can you raise your hand?
Allen: …? Who…?
[pg 35]
Allen: Wa! Alma: YAY!!!
Allen: Ehh? Alma: Yay! Yay! I’m so happy! I thought I was the only one!
Allen: Oh, so he wasn’t speaking to me… (that makes me feel rather embarrassed…) …where is this place?
Kanda? Alma: Oh, you’re called “Yuu”!
[pg 36]
Allen: Eh? Yuu? Alma: Eh? Me? Aww, this is kind of embarrassing…erm, I’m, they call me “Alma”…
Allen: EH?! Alma: Happy Birthday, Yuu! [A world full of mysteries…the person in the water is Kanda?!]
Apologies for the triple posting, I'm afraid I don't quite know how to clean up Word HTML... *slinks away*

A woman who made Kanda kill Alma? @___@ Sounds like something Maria could do, I mean considering her powers, if it is her.
*Haven't read the full translation, just the corrections up there, since I'm reading this in class and I dun' have time now* >_>
...*Fangirls over Kanda* Omg he's so awesome! I swear... I was sort of beginning to forget what makes him so... awesome... but he just reminded me! Thank you, Kanda~
This. chapter. was. EPIC! For srs. I loved it so much, even when I don't even know what was said. Can't wait to read the translation, or the scanlation if it's out when I get back this evening but maybe it won't.
Anyway... SQUEE!
That is all.

Oh my *bows head in embarrassment* Thank you for catching those mistakes, Defade! I've went back to change it~ : D
(Edit: For Tevak, because she said "ni koro sareteIRU tokoro", would that mean just as about Allen is going to kill Tokusa and Madarao, she kills him first, because the "iru" and the "tokoro" put together would mean the state just before the action is carried out?)
Suddenly the connotations are changed, hmm, a woman making Kanda kill Alma D: Why would Kanda listen to her, though? As in...her purpose for doing so, for making him kill Alma @_@;; My oh my, the mysteries just keep adding up.
What the heck?!! They really created a human?!!! It's the worst of the worsts ... I really didn't expect from Hoshino to pull something this absurd. From Naruto and the likes with their loads of nonsense yes, but DGM
I wonder why that is. Such a shame cos I really thought the translation was REALLY good this time. No offense to the people who've done it in the past, but the way they worded things made is really hard to read and understand
Meh, I'm sure they'll pop up eventually.
*rolls out squeeing happily to herself* this was a really good chapter~ Allen reminded me why I liked his so much and Kanda was just his lovable self. In regards to the hair-tie I don't know if he's being vain or practical~
Allen earns +MILLION awesome points for head-butting the Earl. I approve of head-butts.
Really nice art but there always is so I'm not sure why I'm commenting on it 0.o I think it just struck me as especially nice this time.
EARL and Earl being under-minded is so adorable and amusing. Gotta love Tyki's attitude as well "Hey Allen! Long time not see, we've come to take ya back ^_^" lovely.
I wonder why Kanda never told Allen about his 14th slip in the last arc. I suppose it's possible that Kanda didn't know what he was seeing but that's what it looked like to me. That's the sort of thing you really should tell someone...
I'm not sure about the Maria=That Person thing yet idea that's started floating around. It's cool as this would mean Cross(they're a package btw). I'm not denying it but it seems a bit much to base a theory all on one single word. We'll see ^_^
BTW WHEE! CROSS FLASHBACK! Now gimme Lavi and Bookman
I'm really interested in learning more about the Artificial Exorcist process, everything we've seen so far shows that Innocence is really intolerable about being forced to do things. I want to know how they did it O_O
*Wonders is Allen really will leave after this and look for this supposed Third Side*
I wonder why that is. Such a shame cos I really thought the translation was REALLY good this time. No offense to the people who've done it in the past, but the way they worded things made is really hard to read and understand
Inorite? It's like IEatManga suddenly took a level in badass.
I love the art in some places, am meh about it in others. Sometimes the faces look too chubby for me.:/
Anyways awesome chapter. The random humor inserts ruined some of the atmosphere last time, but this time it flowed quite well. I was a bit wary of spending 2 or 3 chapters on Kanda's past since he's not one of my favorite characters, but the addition of Allen should make this an interesting ride. I'm especially interested in his reaction after witnessing the shady doings of the church.
I wonder why that is. Such a shame cos I really thought the translation was REALLY good this time. No offense to the people who've done it in the past, but the way they worded things made is really hard to read and understand
Inorite? It's like IEatManga suddenly took a level in badass.
Or scrubbed up on their basic English. Either way I'm REALLY happy to be able to read a scanlation and not have to flip between the manga and a good translation just because I can't make sense of the scanlation text.
The part where the 14th had the super scary imma-gonna-kill-you-and-beat-your-ass look & the part when Kanda said ''he's dead'' were the two most .. wow parts. ( can't find a better word to describe. )
I think that after this, both Allen and Kanda might leave the Order. If they end up travelling together, that'll be amusing. I wonder if any of the others would also leave.
It's disappointing that the 14th wasn't as pretty as the last time he took over Allen, but his scaryface was awesome. And his goal is really interesting.
It seems that the Maria rumour on 2chan really was only a rumour, and there's no base for it in the chapter. But, it's true that she might be the only person who could with her power make Kanda kill Alma if he wasn't willing to fight him. But - if she really was there and could mind-control Kanda, maybe she could instead have done the same to Alma to make him stop fighting? It's hard to say.
I doubt Kanda and Allen would leave the Order. Actually after this I think it's more likely that long postponed heresy trial might take place. That megalomania the Fourteenth was spouting is sure not to go over very well with Levellie.

I'd like to see a trial! But I think there's a chance that at least Allen will end up leaving eventually, because...well. Allen is having trouble with a would-be Earl, and the Order won't want to keep him around. Unless they can negotiate with the 14th, which would be interesting to see.
On one hand, from what Road was saying, the Order was using Alma as a guilt thing to keep Kanda working for them. On the other hand, Kanda didn't seem at all willing to change his position just over that (really, that makes me like Kanda a lot. He's not doing the traditional oh-no-my-world-is-a-lie! thing that the Noahs expected). I'll be interested to see how Kanda's attitude to the Order is affected (or not) by the next few chapters.
. But - if she really was there and could mind-control Kanda, maybe she could instead have done the same to Alma to make him stop fighting? It's hard to say.
That's a very good point actually. Then again we don't really know the circumstances surrounding the attack. Maybe Kanda would rather see his friend dead then become a killing machine. Who knows.
