Ohh wow, well when it comes to the daggers...from which light novel, that's easy, it relates to the World Resurrection at 19. There's an illustration with Mahiru getting that dagger.

Now, I have been thinking that because Shikama is just fooling around, he's not taking anything serious at all, and that can be seen in chapter 77. Whenever he smiles, it means he's not taking anything serious at all.

The daggers seem to have a special issue. I mean, black demon series have many abilities, in Mahiru's case, she can manifest somehow but perhaps Saito could see her in order to throw her that dagger.

After she fused with Noya, there might have been a probability that Mahiru would lose her sanity left and become a "full demon", which means, she wouldn't have memories of Guren.

Saito and Mahiru might have done something way before she died. But somehow, I do believe Mahiru never met the first progenitor.

I mean, Mahiru joined Saito because they were against something more powerful, therefore, she might have thought in the period she was alive, that the source was inside of Tenri instead of Shinoa.

So far, Shikama can meet its host either in his full appearance or his scythe form, therefore, that would really fit Mahiru's reaction when she finally saw his real appearance when Kureto was possessed.

And yeah...returning with Shinoa, I do believe they are the same because they share many traits in common, I mean, it's like finding your clone or something. There are expressions they commonly use like "Godness me". "Do you want to know?" Or something like that. Also, their appearance is somehow the same.

Now with Ferid; Ferid always seems to prove that he knows more than others, which makes him a total intelligent troll but of course, his actions are evil but good, I mean, he indeed causes chaos but at the same time he knows somehow how the other party will react which gives him the upper hand.

But now that he decided to kill Shinoa which made Shikama to react, I believe it was meant to get a certain amount of time in order to get a plan or a temporary solution in order to stop the First Progenitor. Even so, the First Progenitor obviously doesn't care about that.

Somehow I believe we'll see Shinoa in other clothes...I mean, her body will go somewhere else to either meet the other vampires or try to look for Rigr since Shikama knows that Rigr was playing to be the "hero". But who knows.

I do believe the fight between Shikama might happen in a spiritual world, which means it could happen inside of Shinoa. I mean, we could see that Shinoa was able to enter Asuramaru and Yu's mind in order to save them but of course, she had to carry the thoughts about how her sister sacrificed in order to save her, how Guren and her sister weren't able to be happy, how her demon was the cause of everything, technically that destroyed her inner peace to call it like that.

And by worst, Shikama finally manages to restrain his owner which is Shinoa, before the latter could chain him up.

Anyways, there are some headcanons that I seriously think might happen or will be related with the end of the story but I won't share them until we reach the last chapter.
