Thinking hard about what exactly happens when Lewin gets his hands on the Koma sword….

Can there only be one copy of the sword in any particular timeline at once? God, there is too much to think about.

The fact that the Okumura’s birth was code named “Blue Lightning”.

Bitch, I can’t

If Rin is Lightning…. And he’s going by an alias….This is how one loses their marbles.


Continued on this post.

You best believe I am on my “Lightning is Rin from the future” shit again.

@chemicalleak it may take me a bit to articulate everything but I do hope to start bringing more concrete pieces together soon!


I have a few more parallels and similarities to snoop through before I’ll feel confident about piecing the theory together, but here are a few random examples from where I am at in my read (and a couple pages I had fresh in mind from recent chapters) that will definitely be on that list!


The entire idea came from Lightning’s comment in chapter 70 about how he lost his family to a demon, and then he proceeds to brush it off so you don’t know what’s true and what’s fiction in a manner very similar to how Father Fujimoto would dodge certain topics. This is also happening along side when we first start seeing how Yukio’s mental well being is deteriorating. It’s also the same chapters we learn that Lightning is awful with memorization which is why he uses the technique he does as an aria and where we learn that his approach as a tamer is to befriend demons. The first person we see in the series to truly befriend a demon, is Rin with Kuro, and then we learn that is an unusual approach, which he shared with Shiro.

On to the pages!

The parallel paneling between Mephisto and Shura’s comment.

The similarities between how Lightning comfort’s Yukio and how Shura comforts Rin. Also on this note, one of the early things that drew me to pursue this concept, was Lightning’s discussion with Yukio. I don’t remember which chapter it is in but it has always felt to me like Lightning was talking to his own brother from experience during that discussion.

Lightnings comment to the sylphs about giving them a bonfire later, for Rin’s “Satan campfire” technique to appear shortly after, which… resembles a bonfire far more than a campfire to me lol

And of course, Rin’s consistent ominous interactions with deities about the state of his existence, which we do not fully understand just yet. It makes me very curious if Yuri was possibly decent from the grigori or something like that… but these are the reasons I must wait to put out a full theory because I could be forgetting some information from SSC.


God and that’s not even all of them that I’ve pieced together through this read… but I don’t have many more pages. Very rough, but hopefully it gives you something in the meantime while I get myself together!
