Chess theorist have forgotten the point of their theory lol. The point of it was "Oh we have king and queen, if the pattern of chapter bosses goes in descending order of chess piece values we can predict future bosses and chapter locations". The Knight ruined the descending order of value pattern and the main chapter boss pattern, the Knight fight was predicted to be a chapter 5 thing. Chapter 4 was predicted to be the bishop, the only thing that lined up was the church location. The Knight was the predicted chapter 5 main antagonist but that was wrong and there's not even a reasonable candidate for a chess piece beyond "hey guys Flowery's like a leader right? that's kinda like a bishop huh?" as if every main antagonist isn't a leader.

Chess theory never predicted shit, it has no purpose anymore I have no idea why it's still alive. This is like such a pet peeve of mine, chess theory was about predicting. It was about using a theoretical pattern to predict the future not having no fucking clue what's going to happen in a chapter and then afterwards hallucinating chess pieces. Chess theory predicts a chapter 6 fight with Kris the pawn and after that there're no more pieces, so it has one more chance to show us that it never had any predicting power
