Seeing as how the comment section can be potentially flooded by theories, I thought we could organize them in a thread for future reference and I-Told-You-So's. And does anybody have any idea how long it will take for these scenes to be realized? Definitely after the Kuroneko-is-childhood-friend reveal, but how long after?

Redzero36 proposed doppelgangers after citing Christopher's shadow seen on page two.

Personally, Kuroneko's eyes in page1ch1 make me think the alien took her over and MC is raging at it. Though precedence from the author might make Kuroneko developing another personality or voice in her head (Lucy and Yuuta-ghost)more likely.

Anybody have anything else I might have missed?

maybe it's just a possible future...

I can only say that it will be one fucked up ending, and I’m sad already.

I also think that that Neko is a doppelganger. If you look closely she doesn't have anything on her arms and her shoes are different than what she usually wears. She doesn't react at all from being stab to her death. Not reacting to something like that is definitely not a human so I think it's an alien. Another thing, the shadow we seen probably came from the Neko we saw in page 3. I can't explain it though but it's definitely her shadow.

I'm not at all sure what to think of the first few pages.

 

    I'm tempted to say that the destruction was caused by the "Magicians", after Ryouta finds the Research Facility and frees them. Given what we've seen in the latest chapters, this is a definite possibility. However, that still doesn't explain why Ryouta would blame Kuroneko for it - since she is living just fine in civilized society - and even wants to use her powers to save as many lives as she can. Also, the shadow and the fact that Kuroneko is wearing some strange headpiece we've never seen before on page 3 seems to indicate that the doppleganger theory has some merit.

 

    The problem with this, however, is that Ryouta's last comment, "If only you had stayed dead" doesn't make sense with the doppleganger theory. Unless it's some completely new character, who is going to appear to die in a future chapter only to come back again. But the comment itself, plus the "If only you didn't exist" seems far too harsh from him towards his childhood friend and love interest - alleged world destroyer or not.

 

So, yeah, I have no idea how the story will build up to those initial pages. And I'm a bit afraid to find out.

 i think it is alien who has power to duplicate others and ryouta thought that neko(dupilcate) who destructing the world and ryouta killed neko(dupilcate).and after killing her when he turns back neko (real) is there.thats wat i think.but it is very sad in very first page.

-.-

Here's my analysis:

Spoiler

 

Well, the interpretation depends HEAVILY on whether you've looked into the RAWs (more particular, the story starting from chapter 58 upwards9

So, here are the interpretations if you did NOT touch the RAWs:

 

-) The scenery is on some kind of cliff, at a place for watching the city below (well, what's left of it) and it is obvious that things went pretty ugly and that MANY people died

-) The MC obviosly INTENTLY stabbed Kuroneko (earlier, it proved impossible to overwrite his memories and the magic user who could do that is already dead)

-) Him saying: "If only you stayed dead" obviosly refers to the time when she dropped down the dam back along with the MC

   They told the MC that she died immediately (obviosly a lie) so that's why he said that she was supposed to be dead anyways

-) He seems to hold her responsible for what happened to the city (and something else too, maybe) and that's why he stabbed her

-) On the second page, on the lowest part, you can see the shadow (only the shadow) of a girl with long hair (up to now, the only character we saw up to now that has this haircut is Kuroneko, but at that time she's on the ground with a 

   knife in her chest

 

Conclusion:

Something went TERRIBLY wrong and the MC was forced to kill Kuroneko, while we can see a girl in the background...

As the MC turns his back to her and doesn't seem to pay any attention to her, we can assume that she is an ally or at least not an enemy at the moment when that happens

 

Sooo, and now the same, but with the incorporation of the RAWs:

Spoiler

The scenery:

-) We get a short glimpse of it in chapter 58 and a better one in chapter 59...

-) It has a good view of a town at the shore of a lake, the girl (the one the shadow belongs to) enjoys the scenery, sees a couple nearby who enjoy the scenery as well, but then gets pissed

-)  apparently, she has a nice, "girly" personality, but she seems to switch to another personality, that is angry, violent and would slaughter LOTS of people with a smile on her face (totally reminds me of Lucy from Elfen Lied, which is from

    Okamato Lynn as well, she also has a split personality similar to the one of this girl)

-) Also, this girl has a striking resemblance to Kuroneko (in terms of appearance, only her hair color is different)

-) She is crazy powerful (the damage done to the town was most likely her doing and Kuroneko might somehow be the cause for her acting like that)

 

Her powers are:

-) a much more destructive version of Kuroneko's power (and yes, it works on humans as well), she used it so kill people 

-) Additionally, she seems to be able to creat a ball of... light to create a HUGE explosion (considering the manner it is generated, it might be either pure energy or antimatter)

   Anyways, she does that to dispose of a group of policemen, apparently some special unit, equipped with riotshields, 10 in total and their van behind them...

   The girl generates the ball of energy, makes a massive explosion that obliberates half of the mountain (I am surprised that the scenery we see in the first two pages survived that as she blew that load not far from there and no, that

   explosion wasn't what brought the city into that state. And apparently, she survived even that and goes to meet the MC and his group

-) Also, she seems to have the ability to teleport herself

 

I don't know exactly HOW we get to that scene, but my theory is that this girl is Kuroneko or her clone/twin (or the other way around) or maybe the events after her dropping down there resulted her into literally becoming two people

So:

Kuroneko makes a major screw up, somehow does something that causes her twin to destroy the city and the landscape, forcing the MC to kill her (the circumstances of Lucy's death at the end of Elfen Lied were quite similar)

The girl herself survives, as we see her shadow in the background and as the MC turns his back to her, it doesn't seem like he regards her as an enemy

I will give you a hint: 

The scene happens in chapter 95
