Crucial Wish 🏷
GUYS OMG AN INTERESTING THEORY JUST CROSSED MY MIND. HEAR ME OUT:
(Note: sorry for the random disappearance, I promise to post more often, ALSO SPOILERS FROM CHAP. 79)
Okay okay so, after chapter 79 we can all confirm that Tsukasa of the Red House is the actual REAL one and the one of the school is a sort of FAKE one.
Very well.
We know that after more than 1 year and half Tsukasa (fake one) appeared out of nowhere, so when Amane was about 5.
(Chapter 79 reference)
You are might wondering: “yeah uh, WHAT’S THE POINT GIRL?”
Ahem, you remember the Star Festival Arc (chapter 37-38)? Amane and “Tsukasa” were CLEARLY older than the ones we saw in the Red House Arc, thus confirms that the fake Tsukasa was already there... and yeah, this was pretty obvious though.
(Chapter 78 & 38 references)
Red House Arc Star Festival Arc
So the fake one was there with Amane, spending the evening together until he left him for 3 hours... BUT he likely came back at some point, don’t you think?
AND SO, what if he came back exactly after Amane hanged the tags at the bamboo tree? Imagine it this way: Amane finished hanging the tag, staring at it with the hope of this coming true someday...
(Chapter 38 reference)
...BOOM IT DID.
Some might say: “The tree grants wishes of whoever hang the tags on it”
Yeah but nah.
Guys, think about it a little more, the tree is a just a popular rumor that became an actual and truthful one in the Far Shore, thus in the supernatural world.
(Chapter 37 reference)
I doubt the tree itself really granted Amane’s wish back then... and this leads to the point of this whole post:
chapter 79 was an huge reveal that, indeed, fake Tsukasa may be an extension of the spirit of the Red House. And, of course, as its extension he reads the minds of people whom want their wish granted and grants them in return with a price (just like with Kunishige-kun).
(Chapter 79 reference)
We know, Amane’s wish changed thanks to Nene’s appearance, this way leading him to wish to see her again in a near future.
Tsukasa already knew that as he read his mind back then, and what happen when he does so?
YEP, HE GRANTS IT GUYS.
Just like in chapter 79 with Kunishige, I suppose “Tsukasa” did the exact thing with Amane: wouldn’t this be a good huge plottwist for the manga though? (Since we’ve already had a LOT of them, geez xd)
Amane’s deepest and dearest wish was not to be an astronaut anymore, frankly, he already gave up on that wish as soon as he saw Nene, as soon as he realized there was something way more important for him to wish for.
Tsukasa knew that.
He freaking knew.
And this hurts guys... I’m in tears.
Think of it this way: the reason why Amane killed “Tsukasa”, the reason why his fate changed again, the reason why there was the messy family death, wouldn’t it make sense if this all were by the power of that house? By the extension of that power, thus the fake Tsukasa?
Amane’s fate was already changed by real Tsukasa’s wish which the house GRANTED, it would make terribly sense if Amane’s fate was AGAIN changed with his wish GRANTED by the sort of extension of the house, fake Tsukasa!
The house is basically playing an HUGE role here, constantly changing Amane’s fate where, at the end, it ironically led to his initial destiny: dying.
Aside that, I think the house kind of teased the real Tsukasa, the price wasn’t only him disappearing, I think it had a way bigger thing all planned out, that’s why the Yugi twins backstory is so depressing and incredibly heartbreaking.
After all, if you think of it, Amane’s wish was granted by the time he met Nene when he was alive, so “Tsukasa” made his wish come true that very day.
7th July 1964 when he changed paths, thus wish.
18th July 1969 when his long awaited wish came true.
This means he granted Amane’s wish only 6 years later (supposing it went like that).
((I want to point out that time travels don’t happen randomly, there’s always a reason why they are happening. As when that door led Nene to past Amane’s class: it could’ve led her literally somewhere else but, surprise! Straight to past Amane’s class... coincidence? Or when she got hit by a bull, why making her being hit if it wasn’t for actual important plot reasons?))
(Chapter 22 reference)
And what happens next?
The price!
As sad as it sounds, the price of his wish was maybe his own life and not only his but of the whole family whom lived in that cursed house... hm, something here is missing, why taking everyone’s lives (including fake Tsukasa’s life itself) if the house could’ve just took only Amane’s life as a price?
Something else must have happened for sure and we have to wait a little more sadly. We still need to know a lot about this shady situation and the cursed Red House, BUT HOWEVER Amane’s initial wish at the Star Festival Arc might be a good clue which led to the dramatic events and Amane’s sudden change of fate (again), like it makes so much sense.
Or else why putting that panel if it wasn’t effective for the plot? Not only for romantic purposes but even for something way bigger...
(Chapter 38 reference)
This ends here! (Long enough lol)
(Sorry for any grammatical mistakes I’m so tired damn)
