Who is Pride?Al was Ol Shamak before Typhon died so timeline doesnt make senseAldebaran is a star name, with the star being Eye of Taurus. Taurus/Bull is about Pride.Stride was Pride, but he died 40 years ago.All the Sin Archbishops Subaru faces have star names, which explains why Stride didnt have one.Felt was Ol Shamak, but she doesnt have miasma. Her power is probably Lion King.Heinkel is an option, but no star name, no miasma, and Roy wasnt immune to Black Snake poison. So WF doesnt give it.Subaru has 3 WF at time of Pleaides, Greed, Sloth, and assuming half of Envy, because WF can be split(like Petelgeuse)Introducing Pride this late in story seems bad
>>283629280The only thing I can think of is Subaru being Pride, because the the Pleiades star cluster is located in Taurus(Bull associated with pride). Plus the first IF story where Subaru only had RbD is Pride.Yet Satella shouldnt have control over Subaru's RBD if its the Authority of Pride. Tappei has confirmed that RbD is Subaru's authority, with Satella just setting the checkpoints.Al's authority works based off his Pride. There are no other candidates
>>283629280It might be that something was done with the witch factor, Typhon was murdered after all, and Gluttony seemed like something was done to it, considering how it has three users.Maybe it was split somehow to create Pandora and Hector?
I love Emilia (and Rem and Beatrice and Ram and Shaula and Tanza to a lesser extent)
>>283629654Vainglory was folded into Pride later on, but Stride had the Pride WF.Also, Pandora existed alongside Typhon. Hector is melancholy, and thats associated with Sloth, not Pride.Stride Vollachia did say he was a fake archbishop, that he wasnt true. Petelguese refused to acknowledge him as an Archbishop, even though its confirmed he had pride.Petelguese met Al, and said he wasnt mentioned in the gospel and didnt make sense.The only thing I can think of is Al is like Petelgeuse.He has a part of the Pride WF. Stride only had a part of it, so he didnt consider himself a real archbishop. Somehow Typhon split off part of her Pride.Best explanation I can put forth.Al this arc also embodies Pride. "No one can defeat me/you"
>>283629280Aldebaran is the "fiery Eye" of the Taurus/Bull constellation. Al's authority works based off his Pride, and either him remembering or seeing everything that happens, or his enemy seeing remembering everything that happens if Al thinks he cant win
>>283630074>He has a part of the Pride WF. Stride only had a part of it, so he didnt consider himself a real archbishop. Somehow Typhon split off part of her Pride.Neat theory, there is something funky about it all and this could fit. It'd still leave a part of Pride unaccounted for unless Stride isn't dead.
>>283630074Al is really sure he doesn't have Pride. He questions where the user of it is/suspects Petra had it because having Melancholy seems even more dumb/unlikely.>Heinkel is an option, but no star nameHis name is literally star... Heinkel Astrea, Astrea/Astra/Astronomy/Star
Aldebaran can't have Pride.Stride died with the Witch Factor of Pride 40 years ago, and Aldebaran already had his Domain before Satella decided to destroy half of the world.
>>283630689Im saying Al wouldnt know he had Pride.The Holder of WF of Pride being so prideful he doesnt know his own ability is poetic
>>283629886Heh, well now....Emilia a shit..
>>283630689But so is Reinhard, Theresia, and Wilhelm. Plus no miasma from Heinkel
>>283629280Heinkel has Pride. Also, Subaru has Gluttony right now even with Spica still alive.
>>283632268The miasma people comment on is Satella's scent specifically, according to Petelgeuse its a sign of her love. Heinkel wouldn't have that, its not a property of witch factors. Like mabeasts listen to gluttony because gluttony smells like Daphne.
