you guys have any crack theories you completely believed in that got deboonked? for me

>Ilya is the Golden Butterfly
Liked the idea of having a sleeper enforcer from a past arc, also the golden hair and the fact that there's a butterfly called the 'Lesser Purple Emperor' (lesser perhaps alluding to the Empress) with the scientific name 'Apatura ilia'

>Hermes is Enforcer VII the Chariot
what the fuck how did this not happen she has a bike right there, that's your chariot

>There was going to be an 8th Element
Thought Kuro 2 was preparing for us for an 8th element considering we had 7 elements and 8 genesis (the characters even remarked In Kuro 1 that one of the Genesis was used to develop the Water-element healing arts). The idea was that it would be the opposite of Mirage (which represents Active Cognition) and represent the Unconscious, which is the origin of the original sin (ie inner weakness that keeps getting mentioned in Kuro 2, that is only brought to the fore via the 8th Genesis but otherwise lies dormant). I was gonna call it 'Fugue' or 'Miasma'.

Also I got a pretty decent hitrate on picrel which was essentially a shitpost, it was pre-Kuro 2 hence me thinking LGC would actually matter in the arc
