So I have a theory, and I think by the end of this list most of you will agree with me. I’m just gonna list a bunch of things we know about this subject and see if everyone comes to the same conclusion as I did.
- Allen’s eye has an upside-down, filled-in pentagram above it. A symbol seen used by the Earl/akuma.
- Allen’s eye can see the souls tied to akuma.
- Allen has that eye because Mana – an akuma at the time – gave it to him.
- Allen’s eye evolves.
- Allen’s eye has a similar soul(?) tied to it. (Seen briefly in his battle against Eliade at Krory’s castle. Possibly Mana’s soul or part of it, though that is mere loose speculation).
- Allen’s eye (both the physical eye and the “eye” on the glass inside of the cogs) has been shown to look like an akuma’s eye (the most notable of these occurrences is in ch69 when Eshi the Level 3 and Allen’s activated eye are shown one after the other with the same pupil and iris shapes.
- Allen’s eye caused the Gatekeeper to think he was an akuma.
So are you all thinking what I’m thinking? His eye isn’t “cursed.” It was made into an Akuma eye.
