OnS Theories (24S). Third Theory - Mikaela’s Fate in two sides. Shikama’s view and Yuu’s view
Hello everyone, I’m sure some are hyped, others are making memes (yeah I did some for the spanish fandom ehe!) and others might be sad due to how at the end Guren’s plan is turning into a complete reality, but, is it really bad?
For that, I shall discuss with you some missing points within this theory.
Therefore, let’s begin!
P.S: Theories are held within a neutral view and ships are excluded
As something that was bound to happen, within the newest chapter of OnS, Mikaela was finally able to become Yuu’s cursed gear and demon, allowing both to devour each other’s desire to become stronger and finally be able to face down the First Progenitor:

But despite this positive outcome, there’s something that several fans have pointed out which is something that the First mentioned:

Therefore, let’s talk in depthness about these two standpoints of view and who might hold reason through all the story.
Shikama’s Point of View
With Shikama, we’ve seen how he slowly prepared everything to ambush the demon Mikaela by sending his three Apostles to his world in order to capture him, but of course, such event was halted by Yuu:

And of course, after these series of events, Shikama decided to step in and ambush Yuu and Mikaela after they had a small fight between each other to seal the pact between demon and wielder.
But, if Guren’s goal was to have Mika within a cursed gear, why does Shikama aimed to do that as well?
First of all, Shikama wasn’t planning to make Yuichiro and Mikaela happy by any means despite how the ancient forgotten past may seem to look as a possible miracle of bringing Mikaela back, but why?
This is due to the fact that the corpse we’ve seen several times, despite being called Mikaela, isn’t Mikaela Hyakuya, what do I mean?
It’s known that the soul is the composition of consciousness, the one that harbors our memories, will, fondness of someone, etc.; but once the body perishes, the soul dies with it and leaves the body to a faraway place.
First of all, Shikama’s main goal or objective with Yuu in the past was to “SACRIFICE” his life:

But, with the current chapter, a new contradiction appeared, therefore, why is it that?
What does Shikama aimed for by having Mikaela as his cursed gear in the future?
First of all, there must be something clear. Mikaela Hyakuya is his own persona. The one that embraced to turn into a demon in chapter 93; the one that appeared in that beautiful dream was his soul and the consciousness was the demon itself, the figure that lurked and saw the happiness in such place while not knowing what he was seeing or who he was seeing.
The corpse despite carrying the same name as Mikaela is not Mikaela Hyakuya.
This in general means, being autonomous, having one’s own identity.
Therefore, when Shikama asked the next thing:

What was the danger in there? That’s easy to answer and that’d be the loss of identity and memory. But, is there proof to this?
There is.
Once the demon Mikaela’s heart was shattered, and eventually was rescued by Yuu, there was something that could be described as a reset in chapter 103 due to the attitute he took with Yuu after they met again:

The demon Mikaela behaved like any other demon after meeting the one that would either become their meal or their wielder; and of course, after this the battle took place between them, BUT, there was something else at hand, at that was, resonance, which lead to the soul of the demon Mikaela remember something from his past which was the next thing:

Leading to the same painful memory Yuu and Mika hold to their hearts, the very needle that hurts them to no end.
But, what does this mean?
It means that the demon Mikaela only holds memories of what he lived and what his current present self had, thus leading to the same question.
What would have happened if Shikama succeeded on taking Mikaela’s soul?
That’s easy.
Mikaela Hyakuya would have ceased to exist. His existence would have forgotten everything, all the memories, all the sadness, all the pain, all the joy he expeirenced in life, to leave a soul in a blank state, an empty canvas prepared to be overwritten by something else.
But, how does this relate to seeing Mika as Yuu’s future cursed gear on Shikama’s plan?
That’s simple. Shikama’s highly possible goal was that the new soul he’d rewrite and bring forward would have favored his side, thus making Yuu carry the soul of what he lost to eventually take over him and make him cease to exist, which would lead to possession, a complete possession with no absolute control by his side.
But, since this scenario never happened thanks to Yuu, thus leading to the new scenario.
Yuu’s scenario of Mikaela’s Fate
In contrast to what Shikama had aimed, Yuichiro is very aware there’s no time, and whatever the monster wanted, it wouldn’t benefit Mika and himself, it’d mean they’d cease to exist in order to fulfill the agenda of a being that has never treasured life.
But perhaps many might wonder, how is Mika becoming Yuu’s demon makes any difference?
In contrast of being sacrifices, they’ll preserve their autonomy and fight for what they want which is to live; Yuu wants to see another tomorrow not only with his friends but with Mikaela as well:

Yuu not only wanted to save Mika for his own goals or desires, BUT because he wanted him to see that there’s still hope in the world, that nothing is over yet, but in order to find the key to the map they traced, they have to fight, they have to stand together to defeat the one twisting their fates constantly.
Yuu doesn’t want to lose the gold time they spent ever since they met from the first time up till now, those years they met and fought to finally be reunited were valuable:

Yuu’s main objective isn’t to use Mikaela as a tool, but he has set in mind to save Mikaela from the curse of being a demon and return him to be human again.
For Yuu, Mikaela was his first friend, his first family, the first person to ever need him in his whole life without interest,
Which this will lead to the first loss of the First Progenitor. It’ll be the first time he’ll see that Hope and Love towards life overcome any curse; it can break havoc any fate imposed even by a fake God.
Does this mean Mikaela will forever be trapped in a weapon?
The answer to this is NO.
He’ll become human again. How? Only time will tell!
What do you think dear readers?
Let me know!
