The whole thing came to light as Shiki and Rebecca returned to television with a new episode of season two. It was there Edens Zero put the two in chains with Weisz and their party all thanks to Drakken Joe. The intergalactic thug caught up to the trio, and with a simple order, Joe was able to change Weisz’s life forever.
After all, Joe ordered Fie to cut off the man’s arm. In a moment, Shiki and Rebecca had to watch their friend lose a limb, and the bloody scene took fans by surprise.
After all, Edens Zero has some dark moments, but this latest scene is far and away the worst. While much of its gore was kept in shadow, the reactions to Weisz’s torture were hard to watch. Joe and Fie could only laugh while Shiki watched in horror. As for Weisz himself, the man screamed until he passed out from the pain. This dark scene takes the darkness we’ve seen in Edens Zero to a new level, so you can see why the fandom was so surprised.
Of course, Edens Zero fans knew what was coming. Anyone who tapped into Hiro Mashima’s story knows Joe was the one who took Old Weisz’s arm. Now, we have just seen the whole thing happen in real-time. This dark scene is right up there with Fairy Tail’s worst moments such as when Alternate Lucy was murdered before Natsu’s eyes. And given how we saw the hero react to Lucy, well – you know Shiki is going to get revenge for Weisz and then some.
If you are not caught up on the Edens Zero anime, you can binge the series with a bit of work. Netflix is streaming Edens Zero season one while Crunchyroll is housing season two as it drops new episodes this season. As for the manga, Mashima’s Edens Zero can be read in English through Kodansha USA, and it will be part of the publisher’s digital manga app dropping this summer.
