OnS Analysis - What lies beyond the relationship of the Sanguu Sisters and how it connects to the new Black Demon Mitsuba will wield.
Hello everyone, it's been quite a while, the new chapter is drawing closer thus, I gave some thought about two characters in specific, that's correct, Mitsuba Sanguu and Aoi Sanguu.
Therefore, let's begin!
P.S: Theories, analysis and thoughts are held in a neutral view and ships are excluded.
So far within the story, we've known that the relationship between Aoi and Mitsuba has been distant, Aoi's first appearance in the manga dated back in Chapter 39 already displaying that distance between the Sanguu sisters.
The next time we see Aoi along what she thinks about Mitsuba is back in chapter 45
Lastly the last time a brief interaction between the sisters comes is back in chapter 70.
Ultimately, it is revealed that Mitsuba wanted to be recognized by her sister, sadly such wish ended as a mere dream.
But, there's one thing that always bothered me when it came to their interactions...at first it was, was Aoi disappointed in Mitsuba for not following the Sanguu's raison d'etre. But Aoi's attitude is awfully abnormal, what do I mean?
Usually when there's disappointment between characters such as the case of Tenri Hiragi with Shinoa, Seishiro or Kureto; the case of Shikama and the sired Progenitors or the newest case being Rigr Stafford and Ferid Bathory, usually the natural course of action is discarting the ones labeled as "failures or disappointing results".
But with Aoi Sanguu is different. Back in the first chapter she appeared, her reaction towards Mitsuba was distant, it wasn't as she was glad to see her sister; what am I trying to get at?
Had it been a mere case of just anger towards traitors, her attitude would have been much different when she first encountered her sister in the battlefield.
But given that Mitsuba is now getting a power boost by receiving a Black Demon.
This opens a new possibility. What do I mean?
It is well known that the only way for humans to wield a Black Demon Cursed Gear is that those humans must have gone through experiments in order to do that. So far the only ones that ended up in success to be wielders of black demons are:
Kureto Hiragi - Raimeiki
Mahiru Hiragi (former wielder of Asuramaru)
Shinya Hiragi - Byakkomaru
Guren Ichinose - Noya (formerly) Mahiru-no-Yo (currently)
Shinoa Hiragi (she's qualified given that she can take any demon into her heart)
Yuichiro Hyakuya (Asuramaru and Mikaela)
Shiho Kimizuki (Kiseki-O)
Yoichi Saotome (Gekkoin)
The ones above are the only ones qualified to wield such type of cursed gear, but now, how will Mitsuba wield said class of gear considering that she used to wield a lower class of demon.
The answer lies in the possibility that she too was a test subject and Aoi Sanguu was fully aware of such event.
Mitsuba's past is pretty much shrouded in mystery but in contrast to her, Aoi's reactions reflect something more than just disappointment, it goes as if she expected something further from Mitsuba given that she does state that the Sanguu Family has no need for "the incompetent". While the term is harsh, it reflects latent power or ability but if the person mentioned does not exploit such abilities, within this universe, it may suggest as to why Aoi labels Mitsuba such way.
Mitsuba, being born in the Sanguu family carries a lot of expectations given that the Sanguu Family is filled with powerful members and just some of said abilities are seen in display in very few combats from both sisters.
Nevertheless, whenever Mitsuba finally unlocks her full potential, it will depend on the author and how she works with her new demon. What do I mean?
In contrast to other demons of lower rank, black demon series have trials that may endanger the possible wielder, furthermore, they're more willing to fight for dominance along being interested into their targets.
As a personal thought, I do hope the squad is actually preparing or hiding somewhere else so Mitsuba can actually come up with her own trial along detailing more about her. Given that demons from the black series tend to be more special, I do wonder whenever Ky Luc will lurk on Mitsuba's memories or not.
What do you think? Let me know!
