You mean the next update being a prolonged, dire and strenuous fight where after barely holding on it ends with the evolution but not the actual climax ?
Bro I refuse to believe WW would do us that dirty. Fuck no, I don't wanna imagine that.
I feel the next update will focus on other characters' fights. Michael for one. He needs a big solo fight. Either that or these characters will be saved for a return update.
The last time we saw Michael fight alone was his duel with dereks chimera. If you don't count the Alice/Michael vs Met fight.
Thinking about this, I understand a little more why people hate the monster world arc. WW could have given Michael a decent solo fight anytime. Yet the only tough challenge he got was the fight for the portal.
Stakes felt like they were increasing when Danu attacked them in the underground halls.... but then she just ran away and they went back on their merry way.
For an incredibly dangerous world, it sure didn't feel that way at times.
Was the inclusion of Ella doll a plot device that ultimately boxed WW into a corner? She basically soloed an A rank on her own.
Would it have been better if Weirldworld moved the "portal fight" to the middle of the monster world arc, then had the characters make their way to Aos's city, missing a member?

As for the next chapters, HERO is going to be attacked and Nico is going to give up on maintaining the portal and join the defence, meaning all captains will be out of the picture for the foreseeable future. Raising the stakes. (Hopefully)
There are so many things going on it's hard to predict what will actually be covered next chapter. We might get the start of a fight with the MC at the end.
WW just needs to give up on the idea of a 1.0 for the foreseeable future and focus on tying up story threads.
