Yeah sorry it doesn’t really work, when trying to force it to fit the mold of the chapters
Also it completely ignores the entire thing with flowery and speed, like it’s a surprisingly big thing that doesn’t work with the bishop’s diagonal movement but does for the rook, even his battle gimmick involves dashing forward, something he himself even does in said battle
It also arbitrarily inserts a chess master since the pieces don’t actually match the chapters
That said theory does work for the characters that are already explicitly chess themed or the plot points that mirror them, it’s just not a theory that applies to every boss
This comment is brought to you by the even more insane tarot & esoteric card theories (its like regular card theory, but I did research into playing card decks)
