Rat" is a slang word derived from "R.RAT," an item (food item) in the game (Metal Gear Solid 3) played live by Pekora Usada. rat means "rat.
It became popular because of the funny pronunciation of "Okay, rrat" that Pekora uttered when he got this item. See also Ogey.
Since the word "narrative" also contains the letters rrat, rrat came to be used as an abbreviation for narrative.
In this case, narrative refers to so-called "theories" or "stories," i.e., funny "theories" or "fantasies" made up by fans.
For example, just because A and B have not collaborated recently, it may be thought that "they haven't collaborated recently," "maybe they had a fight and don't get along," "come to think of it, I think things have become awkward since the sleepover they had a while ago," "maybe B did something weird when A was sleeping at the sleepover. A must be angry and refusing to collaborate with B! If the story is made up that "A was pranked by B when A was sleeping at night at a sleepover party, and that was the cause of the fight and disagreement, and A is angry and refuses to collaborate with B", such crazy fans will pile up delusions upon delusions. The term "rrat" refers to a strange and bizarre theory that was made up by such crazy fans by piling up delusions upon delusions.
