On that note, I've been thinking about Imu's abiltiies and kinda noticed something......pretty obvious in hindsight? He doesn't have mind control/memory manipulation/brainwashing powers. Not exactly. He has shown no ability to read his servants thoughts or directly change them in any way (unlike, say, Pudding. Who can just shove her whole arm into someone's brain and fiddle around with it however she likes. 😅). His life would probably be more convenient if he could. Lol.

All Imu does is give orders, and......thats it. The person in question either obeys willingly, or things start getting wacky. But not because Imu is directly controlling their thoughts, but instead because they start changing to be someone who WOULD obey. All of them do this, even the Domi Reversi demons. They start rationalising it, finding reasons that make sense to THEM to do what Imu wants, without even seeming to realise how different they actually are for the most part. We've seen a couple moments of lucidity (usually after taking a bunch of damage), but the only person who has shown to have any real control over their own mind after fully losing the fight for control was Rocks. And even that was just in the form of crying as he did what he was ordered anyway.

And Harald went down a slower change, where he was given an order, refused, his body started moving in its own but his mind was still in control and he was trying to order his guards to chain him up. But that would stop him from fulfilling his orders, so his body moved and killed the guard/s who tried. And as time passed his mind started to change so that he was someone more willing to obey without having to be forced (which I would actually like a lot more for Imu's powers than "everyone is being brainwashed without exception". It would basically mean that if you obeyed then nothing about you would change, because there would be no reason for it. ).

ANYWAY, whole lot of rambling to say......what if "Gunko" exists because "Shuri" was just incapable of reconciling her orders/what she was forced to do, so her mind (in order to fall in line with the orders she was given] HAD to forget anything unnecessary, and so she became Gunko. And yeah, at this point it would be more of a Hakuba/Cavendish thing, but in reverse I guess. If that's how it works, at least.

Ooooh, really good analysis. Yeah, Imu seems to just give orders (Contracts?), and, bam they do it, and twist themselves to do it. Harald's memory wasn't altered, he was acting within his normal personality. His mind was changing itself to justify Imu's orders, and acting as if that's what he wanted himself.

I do think there's a chance Rocks resisted enough to keep himself from killing Kuma/Eris/Teach.

It's also possible Shuri's eyes have some connection to split personalities.

I'm guessing Shuri asked Imu to spare Brook, because she assumed Leuven would be captured, rather than killed, since he was royalty who formerly served the WG. Imu then has the two fight each other to determine who becomes his new God's Knight.

Since we've already seen the WG use WILD recruitment tactics, it wouldn't surprise me if Imu needed a new God's Knight in this time period, and chose Esperia for its Swordsmen.
