#i mean i considered it as a possibility ages ago but i preferred either hanto's mentor secretly being the wolf granute

"Surely Shouma wasn't the Granute that ate Hanto's mother," I said calmly while pacing the floor because why would Shouma have this reaction unless he was a witness or the perpetrator, we haven't seen Shouma's Granute form yet, and the story hasn't clarified whether making minions with a gavv specifically requires eating humans, which means that maybe during Dente's modifications he let Shouma loose in the human world to see if the surgeries worked/Shouma went a little wild and broke loose from containment, but nothing happened when Shouma ate a human aka Hanto's mum so the Stomachs dismissed the modifications as a failure, Dente suppressed Shouma's memories of the surgeries and the 'failed' minion experiment, and that's why Shouma can't remember anything from that time period that would add to his extensive list of reasons to hate myself -
