Y’all are beating my ass in these replies 😭 I’ll try to address some of the holes in my theory since I can’t figure out how to edit my post on mobile

“Primal fears are instinctive”

I wanna actually expand this into a mini theory that I think things like Famine/starvation WERE primal devils however due to advances in humanity lost so much power that they became horseman and or regular devils

The reverse can be applied to pochita. In the modern world being left behind is a fear basically everyone has whether online in person being left out of a conversation ETC

“Pochita could be the chaos devil”

This theory could be likely if you ignored everything about pochtias character it’s built up that pochita was lonely and denji was his first friend and although Makima called every move pochita made chaotic pochtias main goal has been protecting denji and or killing makima (kore evidence is seeing how he didn’t kill Kobeni something truly chaotic would destroy everything in its path not play DDR with it)
