Dandadan Chapter 178

Kashimoto’s “Ice Flame” and Payase’s darkness give the Minotaur exactly what he craves: more impact, more heat, more hardness. Payase explains the counter‑intuition—stronger light deepens shadow—while Kashimoto warns that feeling no pain is fatal; pain is a meter, not a weakness.

Absolute zero turns the table. Ice Flame drives iron into hydrogen embrittlement; Payase reaches through and snaps the Minotaur’s arms. Seiko, finally back with her bag, slaps on a talisman. The brute blurts there’s someone truly after her—and loses his head to a single kick.

The Power of a God pays off dandadan’s rule of clever violence: understand the material, then change its regime. Seiko answers hubris with divinity and keeps the bigger hunter nameless—for now.
