Recap

From the wiki page Wanzu:

In Japan, Wanzu took the age elixir, becoming one of her older selves, while Micheal and Noot took the anime potion and gained the power to control water and be a ghost respectively.

In Micheal’s reality, Micheal was prancing and playing with his new power along with Noot near the forest, where he accidentally took Wanzu’s drink. Wanzu claimed it and Micheal offered to take her to a place where there were more drinks: a table in the middle of the forest, from where he had gotten his powers by drinking the anime potion. Wanzu then questioned what drinks were safe to try, but Micheal did not remember and his guess ended up being poison. Spying at them from a tree, the Gamemaster laughed and said Micheal would soon fall dead, but Wanzu offered to heal him using her arms. Instead, Micheal used her power to expel the liquid out of his body, splashing everywhere and grossing out the cat girl. He noticed then in panic Noot had become a spirit, and the Gamemaster explained Micheal had just drunk drain cleaner and Noot took one of the anime power potions, but that the effects should dissipate in about a week. He then told Wanzu she had to take a potion as well. Wanzu requested something normal, and strawberry flavored, and the Gamemaster obliged, but when she drank it, it turned out to be an age shift elixir which changed her. The older Wanzu was satisfied anyways and dragged the dehydrated Micheal to a pond among the cherry blossoms with a nice view.

In Wanzu’s canon reality, Wanzu spoke to Micheal, saying a petal’s purpose was to be flown by the wind and fall to the ground - in the same way, she was like a petal, one of many in the world. Micheal asked if she always talked in such a poetic fashion, and Wanzu replied that most of the time yes, although one of her selves did not, because she was gloomy. Micheal replied he could not picture a Wanzu that did not enjoy poetry, and then thinking about it, added that it was true everyone was like a petal, and that often when he wanted to achieve something life swept him in another direction. Wanzu said that resisting the wind was pointless, the wind would take one to many different views. Smiling, the man replied that in that regard, the inevitability of death was in a way comforting, as it was a secure fate for everyone. Wanzu agreed: with death comes certainty, so live happily. As she said this, she began to vanish, while Micheal continued, saying he had met many petals and despite their short lives, people always managed to do amazing things - much like how a cherry petal could make one think of life. He turned then, but Wanzu was already gone, leaving him alone amidst the cherry blossoms. Convalescent in a hospital, the older human Wanzu then woke up from her dream.

After this, Micheal became another “victim” of the 𓀱𓁜𓂂𓁿𓂚𓀗 CURSE OF WANZU. 𓀱𓁜𓂂𓁿𓂚𓀗, although in this case, Wanzu gently guided him to the afterlife and Noot followed him. With the man gone, as well as Desmond and Tikas, the Hateful Eight completely fell apart and dissolved.

Wanzu was stated to fight LOVE then. However, LOVE also fell victim to the 𓀱𓁜𓂂𓁿𓂚𓀗 CURSE OF WANZU. 𓀱𓁜𓂂𓁿𓂚𓀗 (MOODLE VERSION) and ultimately lost the power to fight.

A sleepwalking Wanzu faced Lurker and Tenebris in combat, wielding a darkness sword. Tenebris ultimately woke her up, and she instinctively reacted by mindcontrolling the commenters who performed carameldansen with her.

Dr. Stitch eventually found Noot’s corpse and used it to create her ultimate golem.
