Another MitsuCho Theory (Spoilers)
I come back to fandoms and crazy stuff is happening in each one. Everything except a Mitsuki and Chocho moment or Chainsaw Man characters being happy lol. Besides that, let me get started. Because I will never stop.
This is half a “where else are we going with these characters in a story about love” and “I love this ship” theory.
This theory of mine is under the idea of Mitsuki becoming a Shinju. Let’s say he does! I cannot be the only shipper thinking this:
Shinju go after the one they love most, so this is an interesting thing to happen to Mitsuki. Of course I think Chocho would be his target.
Chocho believes Mitsuki likes her + Mitsuki admitted that Chocho stands out = possible foreshadowing at Shinju Mitsuki going after Chocho.
The symbolism is amazing because then we’ll get Butterfly Mode vs Snake Sage Mode. Pink vs Green, let’s go. God just imagine that chapter cover.
Things this might make a callback to:
Orochimaru’s eyes swirled like “a snake chasing a butterfly” (this one is weaker because it wasn’t actually said)
“The path I walk, is that of the snake.”
Here we worried that Konohamaru would be the one to show the viewer what exactly happens when a target is consumed.
If it’s Chocho, I’m going to lose it. Snakes eat butterflies, Shinju eat their target, so… that’s the biggest reason I dislike this. Proving MitsuCho canon is not worth losing one 😭
Every theory has its problems though. Where are their interactions?
Anyway, Shinju Mitsuki being named Tsukimi? Symbolizing harvesting his target, or is that too on the nose? I’d like to hear thoughts on that.
(Also I have questions I’m sure many others asked: where is the sweet InoShikaCho + Himawari moment when Inojin woke up? When are Sakura and Sarada going to talk? When are Chocho and Sarada going to talk? Is Chocho’s necklace supposed to match Sarada’s? I really hope so.)
