#twst time loop theory

[hanafubukki]

What if every time a Yuu has failed, the timeline resets and another Yuu is summoned?

Additional points to this theory

Okay okay hear me out

As we noticed, each rendition of twst media has a different Yuu. They all are vastly different in terms of form, background, experiences, etc.

We have yuuken, yuuya, yuuka, and, of course, yuu/mc/reader.

A lot of people have been mentioning a Yuuverse and the time loop theory again because of the addition of Yuuka.

But what if? All these yuus are connected? We already have a theory of time being reset or reversed. We see how the prologue goes with Grim.

We know that game!Yuu can somewhat get visions that lead to or give a hint of an overblot. We saw how Yuu used that knowledge to spy on Vil before he OB and went to grim when flashes of the chimera came to them.

So what if, each time a Yuu fails, another one is summoned? With different traits, backgrounds, etc. to try again, to have a better chance, so history doesn’t repeat itself. So they can be saved?

Isn’t it Crowley who says “for me, for them, for you, we are all running out of time. Never let go of my hand”

We all knew that there’s something going on with the twst characters, but what if that also includes you? And all the other yuus?

What if, every time a Yuu failed and time reversed, those memories were sent to the new Yuu that arrived?

As a way to warn them? A way to help them?

And that is why we see game!Yuu have those visions. It’s a Yuu who has failed before and passed on their memories or hints to the new Yuu.

If we went a bit darker, we can say that the manga Yuus we see are the ones that have failed as well. We can say in a way, with the new yuus, each of them failed and their knowledge has passed on.

And that is why we get a new Yuu in every rendition

Wait wait wait. I was trying to sleep but then this hit me- In regards to the time loop theory, it’s been regularly assumed that the time loop is caused by someone’s magic. Malleus says that not even he can turn back time (although he’s still young for a fae), but he alongside Crowley and Maleficia have been common contenders to be the root cause of a time loop.

But what if this isn’t caused by someone’s magic/Unique Magic? What if it’s caused by the special artifact at NRC- the Dark Mirror? When watching the opening prologue, it opens up with Crowley surrounded by the dorm mirrors in flames. He steps into a mirror, implied to transform into a raven/crow, flying throughout NRC. Here we get glimpses at all the NRC characters and hints at all the Overblots and other future events.

But then at the very ending of the opening, Crowley’s coat falls into darkness, where we see that same raven flying into the mirror, where it then transitions into a coffin at NRC

And…if we look at Crowley’s SSR groovy, his groovy shows him taking the hand of a student inside the coffin for the opening ceremony, with the Dark Mirror in the background.

The Dark Mirror can take you anywhere in Twisted Wonderland- despite the original Snow White Magic Mirror never having these powers. The Dark Mirror is also known for its Overblot markings on its mask. After all, isn’t it strange that the Dark Mirror may have potentially summoned Yuu from a whole different universe? So…what if Crowley figured out or even made it so that the Dark Mirror can travel back to a specific point in time? The Dark Mirror doesn’t only just go anywhere, but…perhaps “any time” or at least manipulated to return to the exact point in time where Yuu awakened.

The opening begins and ends in a near identical way, but have subtle differences as if to show that these are not the same timelines…Crowley enters the mirror, goes to NRC, the games events play out, a bad ending is reached (suggested by the dorms being on fire), then he enters to the mirror, and ends up in NRC yet again with the coffin.

And in the prologue after we lose against Phantom Grim, Crowley says “the hour grows long, and time is scarce. Take care to never let go of that hand”…while he’s in front of the Dark Mirror. Despite the opening prologue taking place in the future, we are “Welcomed to the Villain’s world” and back to the beginning of the game…where we wake up in the coffin yet again in front of the Dark Mirror.

in your diasomnia chapter predictions you mentioned something about a time loop theory ?? what's that about ????

Hi there~

I'll do my best to explain, but the Time-Loop Theory has been around since 2020 and it actually originated from the Japanese players before it spread to the English side, and people keep adding to it or changing bits of it as each Chapter comes out and we get more info, so I might miss some of the most recent ideas.

According to the theory the characters are trapped in a time loop because of a great disaster, namely the Overblot!Grim battle we get as a "tutorial" at the beginning of the game, which destroys NRC and maybe even kills some or all of the students. The loop is initiated by Crowley turning time back in order to stop the tragedy from happening, however he keeps failing every time, ultimately deciding to summon an outside party -the Player, Yuu- in hopes of changing the outcome...

The main 'evidence' people use for this theory begins at the Prologue itself:

• The "spell" we hear at the beginning which is believed to be Crowley summoning the Player into TWST (For me. For them. For yourself. We are all running out of time. No matter what, never let go of my hand...)

• The battleground appears to be a destroyed Mirror Chamber

• The "monster" in the tutorial is almost certainly Grim, and if you take a closer look at his body you can find elements resembling the Phantoms that came out of the Dorm Leaders' own overblots, which indicates that those events have already occurred. This battle can't be won.

Some also theorize that a few of the characters are aware of the 'resets' to some extent (like Crowley, Lilia, Leona, and even Ace)

This theory has been talked about for a long time because people keep finding arguments in its favor even in later events and recent media:

• Endless Halloween makes it evident that someone powerful enough can alter time

• The existence of multiple Yuu(s) across the novel and the manga Episodes indicates alternate realities where the events of the Main Story occur in the same order

I'll leave it at that for now since explaining the full length of it at once can make it confusing. If you're interested in looking further into it you can find lots on Twitter, YouTube and other Tumblr blogs!

I personally find this theory interesting to think about but I'm not expecting it to be necessarily true. We'll know soon enough! 🌻

Although, reading the Prologue scene in the novel does make my singular braicell work overtime trying to relate it to my "Yuu's dreams/visions are being influenced by someone else and they connect to Silver somehow" theories- but that's for another time.

[raven-at-the-writing-desk]

So in the Octavinelle manga, Yuu is named after the Sanzu river. Now this makes me wonder what afterlife associated name will the next manga Yuu have

I’m not a fan of it, but this could technically support the “Yuu is dead in their original world” theory (especially considering that this is a pattern continued from Yuuken and Yuuka, the previous two manga!Yuus). (Because why do all of their names have connections to the afterlife??? 😭)

Yuuken’s surname, Enma, could be a reference to Yama, who is the master of hell in both Hinduism and Buddhism. Meanwhile, Yuuka’s surname, Hirasaka, is the same as that of Yomotsu Hirasaka. In Japanese mythology, this term is used to refer to the boundary between the living world and the underworld. Now we have Yuuta Mito, whose name (when written) is 宥太 三途. The 三途 portion is the same as the “Sanzu River” (三途の川), which is basically the River Styx in Japanese Buddhism.

It is also odd that all three manga!Yuus are also in circumstances where they happened to be at a crosswalk or passing in front of a large vehicle before they are whisked away into Twisted Wonderland (though this could just be the usual isekai trope)… and waking up in a coffin… Now that I think about it, I think Crowley also vaguely implied “parting from the former world” and moving “onto the next one” in the prologue, though to be fair, that statement is so vague it could literally mean anything 🤡

I guess two was a coincidence, but three is a suspicious trend and a concerning pattern… (not to mention they also stay in Ramshackle, where spirits unable to move on also reside.)

Well, I guess if Yuu is dead then it resolves them having to go home because there’s literally nothing for them to return to— 💀Easy solution for not leaving Twisted Wonderland tbh/j

[pinkpruneclodwolf]

I have a theory that Ace's Unique Magic may be in retaliation to Malleus's rather than one that compliments Deuce's [in the traditional sense].

This mostly goes with the fact that Malleus and Ace actually oppose one another in many ways—where Ace is Yuu's first friend, Yuu is Malleus' first friend.

This isn't even getting into the fact that Ace had words for Malleus during Spectral Soiree.

And what I meant by Ace's UM not complimenting Deuce's in a traditional sense is due mostly in part by Malleus' Overblot. Malleus is absorbing nature and the dormant magic around him and converting it to fuel his Overblot.

Deuce's UM hinges on dealing someone's attack back at them ten fold. He is absorbing magic and throwing it back at his opponent. A bit similar to what Malleus is doing.

Going off of Malleus' Unique Magic—"Fae of Maleficence" in which he puts people to sleep and encases them in thorns I wonder if Ace's UM has something to do with reality? [or maybe it's Sebek, due to his association with time].

Either way, I bet the change in my pocket that his Unique Magic's name is "Ace's Up" "Ace High" or "Bad Beat Jackpot."

"Ace High" is the highest card gand you can get followed by "Queen/King-high" it also indicates that a flush or straight has Ace as its highest contributing card. Ace high straights are quite literally the best possible straights and Ace high flushes are the best possible flushes.

"Ace's Up" just means two pair of cards one of which are Aces, so like, you have AA and a QQ [queen] card.

"Bad Beat Jackpot" refers to a hand in which a player with the strongest cards loses. It usually occurs when a player bets the clearly stronger hand and their opponent makes a poor call that wins with any subsequent dealing to complete the hand. It usually happens when 'four-of-a-kind 5's' are beat out by a higher four-of-a-kind.

Think Positive Twisted Wonderland x Reader

Fandom: Twisted Wonderland

Funny how the perfect of the Ramshackle Dorm always think positive and look for another when in a tough situation.

Funny how the perfect of the Ramshackle Dorm always smile in the darkest days.

Funny how the perfect of the Ramshackle Dorm is always there to lend a heart even to people who they don't know.

Funny how the perfect of the Ramshackle Dorm was thrown into another world with no connections or someone they don't know.

Funny how the fact that the perfect of Ramshackle Dorm who always think positive cannot do it anymore.

How could they when their friend Grim went into a overblot.

How the ink going out almost drown them if they hadn't been saved by their friends.

How the NRC was set ablaze with blue fire.

How the mirror to their world was destroyed.

How their friends we're all bleeding.

So when they saw a huge fire heading to a bloodied Ace and Deuce they run.

Run like there's a wild goose chasing them.

Run they did. As they take the hit the last thing they see was blue fire.

So hot.

But no screams were heard.

'Oh Prefect of the Ramshackle Dorm let us help for you time shall turn back as your good deeds will not be turned blind eye. '

IF EVERYTHING THAT HAPPENED IN TWST HAS BEEN META EVENTS UNTIL NOW, IT REALLY IS JUST LIKE UMINEKO (NOT SO DELUSIONAL)

[kay-kay-is-kray-kray]

I know it's way too soon to think about this but now that Dorm Malleus has officially manifested I'm now left wondering the possible avenues the game would take in terms of SSRs being added to the pool. There's a line in Book 6 where Idia says this which is nagging at me.

Specifically the part where he says "with seven countries to start". I've wondered for a while if we were to get a timeskip but now I'm starting to think that's not as likely (although I still have hope). This does add onto the very clear fact that each chapter adds more world building than the last, however. The avenues I can see twst going post Diasomnia are with other schools like RSA and NBC, with the likes of Rollo because that dude is still mega popular.

What if every time a Yuu has failed, the timeline resets and another Yuu is summoned? Additional Points/Theories

Continuation of this post

(Edit: Repost because it was not showing up in tags)

So, I was talking about this theory with @amys-curious-wonderland yesterday and they brought up some great points. 🌺💕

There’s also the theories of how twsted wonderland could be the afterlife right? So, what if, that's one of the only ways to summon the Yuus? By them “dying”? we saw that carriage-sama came ran over for both Yuuken and Yuuka, and I believe Yuuya had a similar experience. Our yuu doesn’t remember how they got there, but we remember a hand reaching out and a carriage too. all the Yuus also woke up in coffins.

then it brings us back to the twst characters, maybe they are ‘dead or close’ to it, hence everyone in twisted wonderland and Yuu is the one to essentially save them.

As Amy mentioned, twisted wonderland could be like Alice in wonderland with the parallels with reality. Maybe, by saving each OB, the boys are awaken back in their world. Like how Alice is, and both are forms of wonderland no? and it is also a form of saving them.

personally, I think that trope might be done before but, given yana’s ability to story-tell, I wouldn’t put it past her to put a spin on it.

as previously stated, maybe its all the yuus in the yuuverse helping our game!Yuu through memories/experiences.

Like yuuken won against riddle but lost against Leona -> yuuka won against Leona but lost against azul -> etc.

(and maybe yuuya was the one to go the furthest?)

but also, as @nabijay mentioned, this could also account for what Silver mentioned in the character intro, “It’s strange...I feel like I have met you somewhere before”

What if Silver is talking about all the yuus? We don’t know his unique magic yet but we know he has parallels and some sort of connection to the prefect.

as for book 7, we know that they are going to do something different with it just what, we dont know. but that could be a factor too.

as Yuu has visions of chimera grim maybe, it is our yuu who has to stop him or maybe Grim is the turning point/cause of this loop too (or Crowley, malleus?)

and they implemented the retry feature

it could just be a feature but what if, we added that to the lore? What if the retry feature is timelines diverting? or AUs? Because of the choices made or will be made? and how that can affect the time line/loop too.

Or the Retry could be all the Yuus in the yuuverse and the retry is literally the time loop/reset.

personally, I would love it if we can do a “going between worlds” kind of trope. but the possibilities are endless.

what if I went darker? What if the only way to stop the time loop/reset

is by killing Grim? or even the Prefect? both? since they are “2 in 1″ after all

Thoughts/Analysis on TWSTs Manga Promotional Video

Haha, I know this just dropped basically, but I already had a lot of thoughts on this video! Here’s a link in case you haven’t seen it yet. The video is absolutely gorgeous, and I love the animations done with the manga panels!!

But as a silly Crowley theorist, I was squinting at some of the details put in this video 👀🐦‍⬛ Forgive if some of the screenshots look odd lmaoo, some scenes I had to raise the lighting to see it properly.

At first, the opening shot just looks surrounded by fog. But a closer look at it clearly places it in the mirror chamber- or specifically from the way Crowley sees it in the opening prologue where he ominously speaks to the Dark Mirror.

I know this is such a reach LMAO but I’m just scrambling my thoughts. I found it interesting how Malleus had the clearest shot of his head in the little mirror previews. I feel like it parallels both his countdown art image and Crowley’s as well- but I’ll get to that later. I like how his art faded away to NRC logo and the raven wings.

But HERES what I was side-eyeing when I saw it. The manga Yuu’s are presented like cards, with the three Yuu’s we’ve seen so far getting their art, and the other four obscured. The words roughly translate to “This is the tale of Yuu.” From this, we can conclude that the Yuu’s are represented by cards. I wonder if this is a hint of the Yuu’s being a “card” up Crowley’s sleeve for the late game events?

With this conclusion in mind…WHAT IS THIS OMINOUS SHOT??!? “And the story of you.” There’s a clear distinction between Yuu and us as a player…There’s so many cards floating in the air. And instead of being numbered like the previous ones, these say “UNKNOWN.” If the Yuu’s are represented with cards…how many Yuu’s have been summoned to this world? Is this a hint at the time loop theory or different universes? I’d love to hear y’all’s thoughts on this, I find it so fascinating that the cards are labeled UNKNOWN instead of being numbered. I immediately thought that the cards also resembled the floating coffins in the mirror chamber?

It’s also interesting that the word “Yuu” was colored in gold, and “you” was colored in purple. Gold like the eyes of Crowley’s mask, and the purple of Crowley’s lips? And if you look back up at the colored manga page, the usage of purple and gold is also quite prominent. What makes me side-eye the purple is how immediately right after the ominous floating cards, Crowley smiling (notably without his mask as he speaks to the Dark Mirror!!) is shown, before the trailer ends.

There has also repeatedly been white fog/miasma all over the trailer, especially in the beginning in the mirror chamber, and now the end with TWSTs logo. It reminds me of both Crowley’s countdown art, and this line from Book 6. Blot, although it resembles black ink, can contaminate and eventually drain the colors of its surroundings.

Also, Crowley’s countdown art is the only one to break several patterns: No streak/pop of color, a white background instead of black, and the usage of gold. I wonder if the gold and purple in this trailer is meant to hint at Crowley’s control over Yuu? Or how he summoned them here for a purpose, to be his “card up his sleeve?”

I don’t know…I have so many questions haha, but I feel like this trailer was dropping some hints about something, even if I can’t say concretely what it is…🐦‍⬛🐦‍⬛🐦‍⬛

TWST HEADCANNON

WARNING: Death, suicide, limbo, afterlife.. this might as well be a summary more than a warning.

Has anyone ever thought that Yuu might be.. well, dead? The idea of an afterlife is generally an idea of a transition to another dimension or world. Given that Yuu doesn't seem to remember anything (another semblance to the held belief that when you die you no longer remember/worry/care about your past life) and doesn't seem to have much interest in going back? I mean, wouldn't you be fighting to go back? That is, unless, unconsciously, Yuu knows there is nothing for them to go back to.

Also, given that we're talking about a game geared towards a teen and young adult audience, with a teen character, a school-type setting may be where they're most comfortable. And who doesn't dream of a fantasy world anyway? Perhaps Yuu was even a massive disney fan when alive... The subtle flirts from characters like Malleus and Rook could also be a nod to Yuu's 'favorite' characters, however that has less basis because it would take a lot more away from Yuu being a player-imagined character.

We could even take it a step further and consider Twisted Wonderland to be a limbo. Going off track for a second here, we know that Yana has so many details and hidden clues everywhere in BB. Also given that a lot of the characters look like her BB characters as well, is it possible we have a parallel world to the BB world on our hands? (Unlikely, since it's probably just her art style, but it's worth a mention.) But I digress. Going back to the details portion, we know Yana has a very similar vein of dark fantasy going for both series, and seeing how much lore she places around the idea of death in BB, is it possible she's doing the same thing in twst without us realizing? Perhaps, much like the Grim Reapers of BB are forced to work for their afterlife, maybe Yuu was also a suicide, or some sort of tragedy that would stick them in limbo, in a place they could be comfortable in.

Of course, there are many scenarios to get to this limbo state, as well. We could be encountering science fiction experiments, the matrix like scenes, etc. Basically anything world bending. Even the old Time Loop theory of twst could still fit into Yuu's untimely death. But I don't know. What do you think? Do you think Yuu is alive?

Edit: just realized-- what if ALL the characters are dead? I mean, a black carriage coming to pick them all up on a PERFECTLY accessible island is confusing in itself. However, this would mean that Yuu is still an anomaly, because they don't remember anything compared to the others. But they could have fake memories too. Like, remember when Rook was boasting that he survived in the jungle for a month and was close to death when he was rescued, very timely? What if he... didn't? What if the moment he was 'in his mother's arms' and rescued, was really the moment he crossed over? Or maybe they've all died at some point, and crossed into a fully alternate reality afterwards? And that's twisted wonderland?

Edit 2: Kalim is another example, often talking of how he was attempted to be poisoned and kidnapped numerous times. Perhaps the last one he 'survived' was really the one he didn't.

Twst Loop Theories/Analyses … (Mostly of Leona Oji-tan's)

Savannaclaw’s the deepest and most mysterious theory I have translated tbh... 

This time it’s ALL of the people that are from the Savannaclaw Arc (Even Cheka!)

Jokes on you if you haven't dissected the op like I have. We (as players) have made a contract with Azul :3

Leona is an important person in the Loop Theory, aka Rapunzel theory. And one way is by looking at his hair.

Leona’s hair is brown, unlike Scar’s black mane. Most characters have a main villain base and other characters as a sub-base. Leona’s is Scar main and possibly Kion as a sub base. (more on that later in the bottom) But a lot of characters have more than 2 bases so what if the base is in his looks? 

Leona’s hair is brown with braids. So, in the Disney’s franchise there's only one specific person, or princess that would fit this description. Rapunzel. These two have a lot in common if you look for them.

Leona is 20. Rapunzel is 20 by the 3rd season of the TV series.

Like I said, looks Rapunzel did have brown hair as well as green eyes. When she has long hair in the tv series, she did braid her hair sometimes. But in the end she did cut her hair again, like in the end of the movie. So Leona might cut his hair in the end. (I will miss his hair)

The Fairy Gala had lilies in Leona’s SSR. In the movie, there are similar lilies when Rapunzel gets out of her tower.

And the buddies of his card are the light trio, Rook, Silver, and Kalim. All three of them have a part that is based off of the ‘good’ characters.

His tarot card is the tower; if the tarot card theory is true, then it does fit in with the description. Especially the part that Rapunzel was trapped inside a tower. In the story Leona (Rapunzel) is trapped in the tower (NRC)

Both of them also share a similar power (kind of not but). Rapunzel has a power that is called the “sun drop”- it came from the sundrop flower. The power of the “Sun Drop” can help slow down aging, heal, and as well as recover what was once lost. Leona’s power is King's Roar. His power “dries up the opponent and turns everything into sand”. (I don't fully believe it because of my last post but this is this) We are going to assume “in the end” it will become sand.

In the world of Rapunzel. There is a stone called the “Moonstone Opal”. This stone is the exact opposite of the “Sun Drop”, and it- kills and takes away life. In the 14th episode of season 2, Rapunzel finds an old scroll and chants the “Reverse Inaction”; it makes the animals decay and the people around hard to breathe. This was only the first half of the lyrics so the power of destruction was probably not complete. Half of the lyrics can kill, but unlike Leona’s power, it can’t fully destroy the shape.

Cassandra, the daughter of Gothel, did use the powers (her hair and eyes became different) and if she touched anything they would decay; like Leona’s powers of drying the things he touched after using “Kings Roar”. And in the end of season 3 Rapunzel did absorb part of the Moonstone Opal’s powers. 

So what will Leona do in the story? If you look at the prologue 0-0 in the end title you’ll notice it either

turns to sand 

or the fire went out.

In the movie of Rupunzle the antagonist, Mother Gothel (Evil Queen is the motif), and in the end, she loses the power of Rapunzel’s hair and drops from the tower and becomes dust leaving her robe behind. I did say this before of him being “The Tower” card. But what if in the end... He uses his magic and makes the person/thing Crowley revived into sand?

(Personally I think there's a chairman or someone that Crowley will revive. Mallenoa? IDK, there's a person or something I think)

But before the soul disappears, Crowley flies into the mirror and uses his magic to rewind time, which is what might happened, and he tries to find his “Happy ending”

But Leona doesn’t lose his memory, and the Messiah, Lilia, is probably the one who knows and is teaming up secretly. It was especially suspicious when Leona purposely overblotted, which I think, was because of Lilia’s words....

It would make sense if it was the fire going out, because it can also ties in with Rapunzel. Leona is probably going to break the loop with MC. 

I did say that Leona does have chess pieces in his room that tie in with the Light trio. (below)

Rook: Rook Hunt’s name

Knight: Silver thinks he has a talent for a sword and “silver sword”. Also Malleus’s knight

Pawn: Kalim is a pawn to Jamil (He tried to use him to become King in the movie and in the arc)

Also, Leona would be the “king” chess piece 

And Leona’s best subject is “ancient curses”, like Rapunzel he can use harmful ones, like his unique magic too. What if he knows a spell that can “go back in the past? 

If he did It would make sense why his memories aren’t lost. So in conclusion Leona is the Rapunzel trapped in the tower called “Twisted Wonderland”

But other than the pieces what gave away that he is the traveler? 

Something with Azul’s contracts and the scar on his eye is still not clear. But, first let’s look at his name.

Kingscholar can be seprated into King (ruler) and Scholar (a specialist in a branch of study). Scholars usually point to social sciences, or humanities. These branches of study study the human values and how they express the feelings; they require knowledge from phycology to history. If the word “scholar” is in his name, then it can be reasoable to think that he may be “observing and analyzing a person or a thing” 

Leona’s best subject is “ancient curses”, and he is good at protection spells as well as pharmacy (the study of medication). Those do require a lot of knowledge to be good at. Why would he need to repeat the grade if he is so smart?

On Youtube (とろちゃんねる), Leona broke the loop in between his second year and third year. 

In the 4th arc, Mickey’s third remark in the dream is the reason the number “3″ is really weird, almost incompatible.

Leona is 20 he’s in his third year for the third time (if the loop theory is true). If I am correct then the time MC came is when the “3″s (triple)overlapped. He also asked how many stones Grimm ate after the third arc.

This is where Jack’s origin comes in. Jack most likely originated from the author of “White Fang” (Jack London), but there’s more. In my other theory, I said that the MC’s body is not there, that Jack may be referenced from the TV show of the Lion King, Lion Gard’s, Ray-ray. In the show, they defeat Scar, who died and came back to life. Maybe this is also a clue...

In a personal talk, Savannaclaw was talking about the King of Beasts (or whatever they called it). People usually thought “Oh, it's about Scar” but, it's not. It’s not Simba or Mufasa either. It's not Kion as well. If I summarize the traits of the king they were talking about then it becomes like this:

He ruled with his power and fangs, and rejected his older brother to become the king in an attempt to great a good country with wisdom and order to change the affiliation of the strong bullying the weak

The King of Beasts does not discriminate 

“The King of the sky that guides the stars” was called “firefly” and “Great King from the Past”

The nephew of the king was not at the king’s coordination ceremony (Leona and Jack’s conversation)

Leona’s scar on his eye and the King of Beast’s scare are the same. But, Leona avoided answering the question when Ruggie asked him when his scare was from. (Ruggie and Leona’s conversation)

The anecdote of the king; he can apperently talk to hippos, giraffes, lions, and monkeys. (Jack and Leona)

The hornbill, who served the royal family, noticed the change in the country and gave their opinion to the king of beasts infromed. The king is very considerate and king and listened to the opinions and advice. (Ruggie and Leona)

Most of it is describing Scar 

but 3,6,7 are far from matching him.

3 is taking about the “ The King of the sky that guides the stars”. This description is very fitting to “Roar of the Elders” from Lion Gard. Yes, there is a time where this kinda happened in the main story. (also Leona’s unique magic is referenced from “Roar of the Elders”

6. We do have a hippo friend in “Lion Gard”, but not any other animals in the original ones. (The giraffe is missing)

7. the Hornbill is Zazu from lion king, who does serve the royal family. He is present from the original “Lion King” and is with Kion in the show. Something seems off to my guts.

“Why are they favoring Kion?”, you may ask. But Kion and Scar have a trait they share. They are both second born. Also Kion’s roar becomes the strongest; there is a story when he got the cobra venom in his eye and became violent and couldn’t control his power. His scar is as the same as Leona and Scar’s left eye. In season three you see Kion with two lines as a scar on his eye.

In conclusion, what the Savannaclaw students were talking about is either “Kion” or “a lion other than Scar and Kion”.If it is Scar the King, number 1 explained, then the flow of the story is too convenient.  It’s also unclear if it is Kion as well; if it's the conversation after season 3 then I would have no idea. 

 The Key part is his Tattoo and Azul’s contract (Bet you didn’t see that coming) 

In “Lion Gard”, the guards all have a tatoo. Leona does have powers and has a tattoo on the same left arm (technically) as Kion. But unlike Kion’s, the tatoo is a different color. We’ve seen this shade of color. Yes, it’s the same as Azul’s ink. 

(Pull out Azul’s Dorm SSR, after Groovy)

We can’t read the contract, but Lin Channel (on YouTube) is doing gods work and translated into actual words (English cursive) it reads:

Contract:

I am wishing mate 

I wishes senior siring

nephew smiling

inwhere inway amaging waiting

winner winter welcoming

where wide whichever via where wiser anniversary

For all eternity (For all eternity is from the original “Little Mermaid”’s contract)

Let me explain how she’s doing the work, Google (yea, teachers) She looks up people’s hand writings and can conclude things (the long curve after “i” may be the ending “ing”) But, if I clear it up and make it normal English it would look like this:

I want a companion

I wish my brother and nephew a smile

I am ambushing and waiting

Anywhere in the place where

the winter of victory comes

This is just my thoughts, but “brother and nephew” may be Cheka and Leona’s brother, which would be reasonable why such a minor character like Cheka got voice acted. 

Winter could be meaning Hades, who kidnapped Persephone and made winter. So, maybe Idia could be the key to our victory here. And this would expain why Savannaclaw was between Ignihyde and Diasomnia 

Winter could also mean Cheka and Leona’s brother’s heart. They could be lonely (Grim asks Leona about his family, and Grim replies with “They must be lonely, being in a dark cold place” or something like that)

I’m sure that Leona made the contract for Cheka and his brother. He is the only character with a nephew. The tsun-dere side of Leona would explain why he didn’t want to tell anyone about what the contract is about.

Just by the contract and the loop theory we can tell that he is important. But what if he is not based off of Scar... But rather, Kion from “Lion Gard”? If I look into the original characters of what Leona is based off of, then I would forget about “Leona”. Yana Toboso is twisting our brain like that, such as in “Black Butler”, and maybe thats another reason why the game is called “Twisted Wonderland”

So what we all we know about Leona is:

Leona’s tattoo

he is aware of the loop or he is suspicious of the loop

Jack’s position (We don’t know as much as I would like about his power)

Cheka will appear again (he does get Voice acted, and maybe that’s what the second arc will be about. He also said something about having a fiancée so maybe an event?)  

Leona overblotted instead of Ruggie (my other theory)

I do think the tattoo may be made by Azul in the other loop, and he is aware of the loop or will remember of the loop because of the tattoo 

But it is Yana Toboso sensei so... I may be wrong~

Posting this after Leona's magic is aeration theory bc his unique magic makes no sense.

Multiverse or Azul theory next?

If you can comment that will be appreciated (likes and reblogs are appreciated.

I also wrote this 2 years ago

Idk if its right but I did make some changes :3

Hi! Have you seen the new Mickey Mouse Rebrushed trailer??? Twitter is goin crazy over it and how it’s related to twst 😭 just wanted to hear your thoughts on it

I did spot quite a few parallels with TWST from the Rebrushed trailer! I'm not familiar with Epic Mickey at all, so I'll just be commenting on what I noticed right away. You'll have to excuse my limited knowledge.

Firstly!! This design of Mickey is the exact same as the one we see in TWST. Most noticeable is his white face, which is a fleshy peach color in most modern iterations.

Mickey is reading Alice in Wonderland’s sequel, Through the Looking Glass. Of course, Twisted Wonderland has Wonderland in its title, and even opens with an Alice in Wonderland inspired dorm. Yuu and Mickey also connect via their dreams and through the mirror shared in their rooms.

The theme of dreams is very present and upfront here; Mickey wakes up from sleeping and then creeps to his mirror, which appears to be a portal into another world. Hmm... dreams, mirrors, and traveling to other worlds, now what does that remind you of? You'll also notice that Mickey's room is the exact same as Yuu's room in Ramshackle, right down to the "inverted" room that appears when Mickey passes through the mirror. Everything up until this point is very similar to what is depicted in the 1936 short, Thru the Mirror.

Next, Mickey spies on a wizard carefully using a magic paintbrush over what seems to be a diorama of a bunch of buildings on a plot of land. When the wizard leaves, Mickey fiddles with the paintbrush, causes a mess, and calls forth some kind of black ink monster with green light coming from within it. This seems to be a very close parallel to Overblots, particularly since the most recent OB has a signature neon green color. If we really are to connect Epic Mickey to TWST, this scene also seems to allude that Yuu, Mickey, and/or the "wizard" have parts to play in bringing these Overblots to life. And who do we know that is a powerful wizard that is aware of the corrupting power of blot and runs a large chunk of land... say, a campus? Crowley. This goes hand-in-hand with the theory that Crowley is intentionally allowing these OBs to happen or is even puppeteering his students into OBing.

I find this visual in particular to be very ominous; again, we have the colors that match a certain OB dragon fae but also the map itself reminds me of Twisted Wonderland's and the eerie visual of Malleus's thorns digging into Sage's Island and aiming to go way beyond it.

Anyway, the ink monster is temporarily contained while Mickey returns to his own world. We then get a montage of various Mickey media passing by, as well as a lot of imagery that would imply the passage of time (clocks, the date on the calendar changing, etc.). So... what? Is that implying not only parallel worlds, but also a time skip? Or maybe a time... loop? Like time loop theory???

The ink monster somehow eventually escapes and makes it to Mickey's world, with the blot dripping from the ceiling waking Mickey up from his sleep. It drags Mickey away into a hole drenched in ink. Kind of foreboding when you realize Yuu has also had prophetic dreams... Not of OBs, but of the events leading up to them. And being dragged away into an inky... opening? Like an... abyss? Like book 7, Ruler of the ABYSS?

That's how the trailer concludes!! Gotta say, there's definitely a lot of shared elements between this and TWST. If I recall correctly, Epic Mickey was a game that existed on the Wii waaay before TWST. It even has largely the same cinematic trailer (just with older graphics), so to me it feels like TWST probably took inspiration from Epic Mickey rather than the other way around. There are definitely too many parallels for it to be a coincidence. If that's the case, then we can probably pull some hints for what awaits us in the rest of book 7 from these cinematics. (This is a video comparing the two side-by-side if you think that might be of use!)

TWST boyos who are/most likely to become Yanderes♡

Spoilers and hcs/theories ahead

Ace: this man- so to preface this whole thing- I think Aces' special magic, is to travel back in time. But, it uses alot of Magic so he is notably weaker until he first traveled back. We are probably in the most recent time loop, while the side storys/events are from past loops. I think this man, went back in time, so he didn't have to lose Yuu-

Jade and Floyd: these men- wouldn't hesitate to kidnap their love interest(s). They would just walk up to them and take them home. They live them too do they not? They would find their lover(s) quite entertaining and keep them close when doing differnt thubgs and threaten them that if they shared a squeak about their situation, well, they can sleep with the fish♡

Rook:

Malleus: this poor boy- would have such a hard time, even after everything. Loosening those he loves. He has already knocked out everyone so they dint have to be apart. He dosent know what's normal at all, so if he learns about differnt ways to make your love interest notice you than...
