I just realized this and I may just be dumb for not realizing it sooner but-- each Servamp’s weapons are what killed them in their human life!!!
Kuro was killed by being stabbed through the abdomen by a candelabra. The only reason he uses those claws of his was because he did not have the part of himself necessary to use his candelabra weapon. The first time we see it used is when Sloth uses it!
Hugh died of old age, a natural process. His weapon, which we thought was Tetsu’s before we found out there was no contract, is a coffin! Since he wasn’t outright murdered like the majority of his siblings, it makes sense he’d get a coffin.
Jeje-- Well, we haven’t seen how he’s died yet but I think it’s very reasonable to say he was a part of some clergy and was somehow shot. His weapon may have evolved as time went on because they didn’t have guns until like, the 10-12th centuries.
Freya likely died in war to protect her fellow soldiers. Because she used herself to protect others on the battlefield, she gets a shield. Also it must hurt if she knew her fellow soldiers were prooobably who was killed in order to make her into a Servamp. Devastating.
Hyde was killed by his own family, who were greedy and he was likely one of a few sons, not the oldest and thus expendable. Given the time period and noble activities for men, he was likely killed with a saber like his own. So he gets his own!
WE LITERALLY SEE THE WEAPON ILDIO WAS KILLED WITH, THIS BIGASS CLEVER and then we see him with it when he uses his unique magic to fight Jeje. This one is obvious.
Lily’s weapon is a scythe. We also don’t know too much about how he was killed but I’m going to guess he was executed via some sort of guillotine or by, jazz hands, a scythe because not all executions were done by guillotines lmao.
Tsubaki... I think he killed himself. A katana through the stomach or any other vial place in response to the melancholy he felt in his life. That’s a pretty self-explanatory conclusion.
Honestly I think this is really cool! Also a constant reminder of their deaths and how they were made. Great job Germaine.
