Ah, can imagine it now. Subaru coming to the same conclusion and subtly asks Emilia or Rem if they have a Holy Hand grenade on hand. Laughing

Don't worry I'll take care of that with my Holy Hand Grenade. Laughing

"No word yet on its size compared to the White Whale, or whether a hand grenade is necessary to defeat it."

Not just any grenade, the Holy Hand Grenade of Antioch.

The fact this is an actual thing and not a joke at all tickles my whiskers. Gotta love Japan's anime logic.

Finally. A proper illustration!

Though the Monty Python reference is funny especially when I read about this, that thing is quite vicious...

Potential references to "Monty Python" and "Moby Dick" in the same article is not something you see everyday. Way to go, ANN!

Just curious, assuming those two are obvious references by the author, then what about the third Mabeast, Kurohebi (Black Snake)? First thought would be it referred to the Plague, however if the previous ones are a clue, it should be referencing something else in a well-known work of fiction. But what would that something be?...
