Is this just a coincidence or intentional of Ryukishi?

When the Incidents occured, in terms of Zodiac is was the time of Libra.
Imma quote it:
Quote:
It is pretty unusual for them to express anger, but when they do it is usually a storm.

They are often very psychic, have curious presentiments, and would make very devout spiritualists, theosophists, and occultists.

They have little regard for the value of money.

LIBRA is the zodiac sign of Partnership, these people's nergies are focused on melding and combining with others; they are at their best in personal relationships.

They are often accused of being two faced. Beneath that charming exterior they are very self centered, and insist on getting their own way.

As lovers these people are the most quintessential romantics among the zodiac. Venus ruling, they have an idealistic view of love and togetherness.

Well, that part isn't unique to the manga; it's in the VN too. And I don't think the point is that the black witch is actually meant to correspond to Eva specifically; the black witch represents the concept of 'black magic' (people trying to make themselves happy by pushing their pain on to others) itself, and it's implied that Ange only sees this witch as Eva because she is still the person that Ange most associates with that kind of hatred.

In fact, in the VN it's flat out stated that the black witch is not Eva herself. It's just a representation of the destructive hatred of Eva, Kasumi and humanity in general.
I get what you mean, just seemed odd to me that the Black Witch was within Kasumi yet still had the form of Evatrice.
You see, it just kinda made sense to me that she first appeared after Eva solved the Riddle then things going haywire in EP 3.
As in:
Eva solving the Riddle caused the Black Witch to possess people thus causing the deaths of Rosa onwards.
Of course just a speculation:

Kyrie and Rudolf suspected Eva of having solved the Epitaph and took Hideyoshi to question him perhaps even threatening him to tell the location, however he didn't know and they went to kill him.
Would it be too farfetched to say:
Yasu tried to put an end to them resulting in their deaths but Hideyoshi having been killed by them, this being why during the battle Hideyoshi was absent while Leviathan and Belphegor battled them, because he wasn't a target of Yasu.
