I'm here writing this because I’m hyping over TeruKane
After chapter 79, I have some theories popped up in my mind and now I’m here blabbing about my dear OTP. Don’t take these theories so serious ok? J4F cuz im so hyped!!!
First of all, you guys know that TeruAo has become an actual ship. Don’t get too worked up over that, when I read the manga I was shock and the fact that Teru unreasonably fall in love with Aoi upsets me, too. Anyhow, Aida Iro must have something hidden behind this (please do ;-;)
I had a glimpse of this theory that I found it quite suitable to describe how Teru acted in this chapter. Teru is said to not leave people behind as long as there is still a chance to save them, right?
When Aoi and Akane crossed to the boundary, and because of this panel we can assume that Teru was suprised that Aoi was there. That Teru didn't expect to lose an innocent life to the other world.
From there onward, he knew that he couldn't save her. Later on he might feel guilty of it because he somehow let go of a human life and he saw that as a sin. He thought of Aoi coming to the boundary as his responsibility and she accidentally slipped into the boundary is his fault. Maybe that is just the humanity of a young exorcist like him and he desires to save her to pay for his mistake.
Moving on to our chapter 79 where Aida Iro confirms the TeruAo ship in a most shocking way possible. Teru mentioned something like he needs to save Aoi in order to fullfill his dream.
What is his dream though? What is the desire makes him wanting to get Aoi back so bad apart from the guilty feeling? Can you see his little blush behind his hand 👀
Look closer 👀
TeruKane shippers, get ready, you won't believe what I had in mind of this panel, neither do I-
Well, I would say that Teru doesn't seem like he is actually have a crush on Aoi. Isn't that quite contradictory when assuming Teru liking Akane while he looks pretty obsessive with bringing Aoi back? Why not? And these are the two evidences:
First of all, what if he meant to say "Akane-san" indicating Aoi but accidentally calling Akane by his own name? Imagine calling your crush by their name, it is obvious that Teru would be flustered in front of Akane isn't it?
Second of all, the reason why he intentionally saying "Akane-san" and he wants her back is because he wants to see how happy Akane would be. It is like Teru is having a one-sided love and he knew that if he likes Akane, he can just look at him from far away. The best he could do right then to make Akane happy is by bringing Aoi back 😢
It's like Teru saying "I just want Akane-san back" and he kept the "...for you" silence
In conclusion, the two things make Teru desires to save Aoi is he felt guilty and he wants the best for his beloved and maybe his little bro or Yashiro. Teru is quite unpredictable though ^^
That's it for the theories, thank you for reading thou
P/s: Please don't bash Aoi just because Aida Iro wants the ship to be like that ;; It's not her fault and Aoi is a precious girl after all. If Teru is crushing on her for real, may be Aida Iro's writing is not very favorable for us shippers 😢
