Asura is still alive (probably) | Heavenly Delusion Theory

I haven't read the manga, but i interpreted Asura's "death" scene as her just separating her mind from her physical body. That's why some of the kids still see a "shadow" of Asura lurking around. Maybe she is still trying to find a way to interact with the physical world or she is just waiting for something.

I like to note that the other kids in the school have some "Gifts" such as Kuku's frog-like abilities and Taka's whips. So when Asura asked Tokio "What are you good at" she could ask what her "Gift" is, since we don't know yet what it could be. The only thing that Tokio could do that can be considered a "Gift" is the mummification she went through when the school was bombed.

Man this anime is insane this just become one of my favourite anime of all time. With all of this man I didn't notice a lot of this, thanks for the video by the way. Really noticed a lot after this

I think Asura is “alive” as a pure energy being. We see that people got blurry photos of her on film before Nibiru hit. And, I think she knew to liven’t herself before her core overloaded and she became a man eater.

If you are theorizing Asura is the one pulling the string that make Kona and Tokio together then Asura should also be the one that sent naked picture of Mimihime to Shiro for the same purpose as Kona and Tokio but that pair is a failed attempt?

Awsome video! It made me think about a couple of things. After finding out about Asura death, i didn't realise how the teachers didn't find a huruko core inside her, but did with Tarao. This might reinforce the teory that Asura is still alive OR inside the closed pod (she might have tried to k herself but the director trapped her there in a sort of coma or as a hiruko). The other thing is related to conversation between Mihime and Kona in the hospital: we know that Mihime's phobia of sharp objects is related to her very sad future, the interesting thing is that Kona tell her he's afraid of being trapped in a small place... like a pod...

Fantastic analysis ! this channel has the best Heavenly Delusion analysis and explanation/ theories I've come across yet

Great theory ! I do hope Kona and Tokio are alive at least because all those kids had terrible end .

In hindu mythology asura means devil or monster

Great analysis, my guess is that Asura is alive and has plans to do something to fix things. And also wasn't there a panel that showed Asura floating above a city after the disaster. When they were talking about what caused it and someone said something about winged creatures? It's been a while so I don't remember exactly what it was.

Great great videos I love your theory’s keep it up! I hope your channel blows up with the anime getting more attention

As an anime only, i have no idea absolutely what you are talking about

dang this is a good theory. cant wait to see how it all plays out! thanks for making this video

Having only watched the anime and connecting the bits and pieces i've seen in a few analysis videos about the manga (which i'll wait to be finished to read), i think the 4 pods theory could be to have tokio, kona and the twins connected. Being related would bring them closer to a possible link to use mina in a way, no idea what way tho.

Didn’t Kona turn into the hiruko that attacked kiruko. Doesn’t mimihome see a vision of him as that hiruko?

4 pods will be 2 parents and two children linked together... but why...

Yes, so I think it was Yamato who came to kiruko’s dream in ch. 54, I think he pulled kiruko into the pods which could be heaven, like the cave heavens you see the academy kids go to, and maybe asura being in the one that was locked in

Spoilers: So basically Tokio is presumed to have the real kid, and Maru is presumed to be the clone. In heaven, Yamato probably gets the sickness but they need him alive for some reason, so they use his clone to deliver him the cure. Only to find out after that Mary is actually the real one. Either that or it's backwards and Maru is actually the clone.

What I found interesting is the choice of her name "Asura"... in Hinduism the Asuras are the enemies of the Devas. If memory serves the Devas drunk some sort of divine ambrosia kinda stuff and the Asuras didn't... I wonder if the same kinda symbolism was used there... and knowing the Japanese, it's quite possible.

Mikura was in the main land searching for heaven, so Yamato can't be at the island. The hiruko at the race track isn't Kona, good chance it's Tokio. Kona probably is with Yamato at some new Takahara facility.
