She’s turning into a GRIMM! Cinder's Grimm arm is reminding me of the Rainy Devil from Monogatari.

For those who have never read/watched Monogatari Series: the Rainy Devil is a demon oddity that grants its owner three subconscious wishes in exchange for their soul.

The one that features in the series starts off as only a hand. After the user makes their first wish, it grows into half an arm. Each time a wish is asked, the Rainy Devil attaches itself to the user, taking control of them over night to grant the wish.

In Suruga Monkey (the first story it appears in) after Suruga makes her 2nd wish, she repents because she realises it will result in the death of a person.

In order to stop the wish, she has three options: to be killed, chopping her own arm off or creating conditions that make the wish impossible to grant.
