It irks me somewhat that Mephisto has been around for many years and wears the same damn clothes. I personally don't think they look pretty! Am I the only one who feels this way?
Hello! Nah, but Anon, I don’t think it’s meant to be “pretty” or fashionable. xD
It’s simply fitting with his archetype as the odd clownish chessmaster…
…who can actually destroy most of the main cast with barely raising a finger (even if he still needs Shemihaza’s help to stop his older brother).
If anything, I think it makes him even more terrifying than if he were to wear normal or stylish outfits, I mean…
…you can’t exactly call him ridiculous or mock him, when he makes you shit yourself sometimes, haha!
So I think the odd and rather ugly clothes are meant that way by Sensei, just like her use of fan service when it comes to his character, I mean, it’s…
…often a pretty disturbing sight as far as he goes.
TL;DR the clothes fit the clown. Does this mean that they’re a pretty outfit? Nope, at least for me.
Have a nice weekend Anon!
Hello! Well, I rather agree with @the-fox-populi-says‘ answer to the very same question.
First of all, it doesn’t fit within what we’ve seen of the flashback so far (aka Rin’s journey through the past).
Secondly, it doesn’t sound like something Shiro would even do since he always despised the experimenting side of the Order (having been its victim and all), but if we’re going to consider that idea (if he was forced into it), it could only have happened some years after ch118.
I really need to insist on the fact that I can’t exactly see Shiro do that willingly though, because he truly…
…hated them all.
Besides, Shiro using black flame-related spells isn’t that surprising, I mean…
…Armumahel probably has many kins. :)
TL;DR Sorry Anon but no, I really doubt Shiro was related to these guns’ conception because it kinda goes against his character; unless of course he was forced into it by Mephisto (because at this point who knows how much he was bound to the Order, in order to protect the twins).
Have a nice weekend Anon!
