Tokio, the next great .hack// Hero?
After 28 episodes of anime and over eight games I've played, I guess I have to say that the greatest .hack// savior to date has to be Kite. Haseo came a close second, but Kite's been through worse. Tsukasa just had a sad story to go with him/or her for that matter. But, now, in a new generation comes Tokio. So, will Tokio actually become a legendary hero like Kite and Haseo? Will he go through a change like most main characters have in this series?

Re: Tokio, the next great .hack// Hero?
By the time LINK was first released, there was a poem-thing in CC2's site, that went like this (translated, of course):
Good morning, Kite.
Your courage is needed again.
Good morning, Haseo.
Start your journey once more.
Your fury is needed again.
Good morning, Tokio.
Your story is finally about to begin.
It's okay if you still don't understand.
But, it seems like "they" have already set out.
You too, start here.
Now is the time that your power is needed.
I think Aura was the one "saying" the poem. But anyways, based on this, Tokio will indeed be the next .Hack hero. Probably not anywhere close to Kite and Haseo, because he's pretty much being forced to become one and so far he's acting like some fool who has no idea of what's going on, yet apparently he's going to be the most powerful. But we can only wait for now and see what happens >3>

Maybe Tokio could posess a power so great, it could even surpass Kite's bracelet and Haseo's epitaph itself. But, like you said, we just have to wait and see.
Re: Tokio, the next great .hack// Hero?
kite and haseo were forced to become heroes too
anyway, i really hope he's not, since i HATE Tokio >__> but well, we'll see :/

Re: Tokio, the next great .hack// Hero?
How in the HELL has Kite been through worse? He only lost one friend to comas, Haseo like like a dozen. Not to mention Kite's adventures only lasted about six months, and Haseo's lasted a little over a year. That and Kite's had a stable cast of friends supporting him from the very beginning with a nice, formulaic problem with an equally formulaic solution, while Haseo kept losing friends, had no one he could really rely on until mid-//Rebirth, and Haseo's situation has been jacked up to hell like nineteen times.After 28 episodes of anime and over eight games I've played, I guess I have to say that the greatest .hack// savior to date has to be Kite. Haseo came a close second, but Kite's been through worse.

Yeah, but like E.A.S, said, Kite was a outlaw player. CC. CORP Wanted him gone, and Kite lost all his friends due to Corbenik's drain heart at the last episode. On top of that, he killed "you" when you unexpectly jumped in front of his attack. Making it the second time he's watched you die. First time was with Skeith's Data Drain.But shortly, you were born, and his friends all returned. To my knowledge, Haseo only lost two to coma's, Shino and Alkaid, almost three when Skeith Data Drained Kuhn. Sure, his best friend was the PK he was trying to find, but in the end they all returned too. I don't know, I guess they were even.

No, CC Corp couldn't do JACK **** against him. He could've totally ignored them if he wanted, but didn't because he was respectful to authority like some yuppie ****.hmm.... well kite was hunted down by cccorp does that count?
For like 14 seconds. Haseo almost lost Atoli to DEATH. Death > Coma.Kite lost all his friends due to Corbenik's drain heart at the last episode.
I'm not Aura, idiot.On top of that, he killed "you" when you unexpectly jumped in front of his attack.
Ovan? Atoli to Doll Syndrome for a short while and almost total death? Sirius? Zelkova and Matsu for a short while? And don't forget the time when everyone was trapped in Za Warudo, or the numerous times Haseo almost lost his own body, and watched as an other being made use of it to "kill" several people.To my knowledge, Haseo only lost two to coma's, Shino and Alkaid
Re: Tokio, the next great .hack// Hero?
...So, to those who have been keeping up with the manga, does it really look like it can translate over into a new video game series and another anime? This would be the first time .hack's new wave of media went from manga to video game if I'm remembering right.

I don't know if Trilogy was all canon or not, but I believe Haseo was able to save everyone to my knowledge, including Ovan, who was almost sent for total deletion by Aura. Well, there's no point in explaining since I haven't fully completed G.U. yet. Vol.3 still stands in my way apparently. Oh, I aplogize about the "Aura" thing, but since that is currently your persona on the network, I'm afraid that's all I can refer to you now. Again, My main purpose here is to gather .hack// info one way or another. You by far, have really helped with that, thanks.

Re: Tokio, the next great .hack// Hero?
Well, by far, LINK doesn't look like video game potential. Anime probably, but not a game. I think CC2 is taking a different approach with their .hack// franchise. Perhaps they are handling .hack// in a different way.d5t wrote:...So, to those who have been keeping up with the manga, does it really look like it can translate over into a new video game series and another anime?

Re: Tokio, the next great .hack// Hero?
Good lord, I hope not. I want to pretend Link never happened. I've justified some of the worst entries in the .hack series as acceptable, but Link...oh my god, it's piss awful. Anyone who likes it obviously hasn't read it....So, to those who have been keeping up with the manga, does it really look like it can translate over into a new video game series and another anime? This would be the first time .hack's new wave of media went from manga to video game if I'm remembering right.
Nope.Hmm, good points. I don't know if Trilogy was all canon or not,
Ovan wasn't going to be deleted. Finish the games.I believe Haseo was able to save everyone to my knowledge, including Ovan, who was almost sent for total deletion by Aura.
"Aura" isn't my persona. I picked the name for something totally unrelated to .hack, and people made my graphics as gifts.Oh, I aplogize about the "Aura" thing, but since that is currently your persona on the network, I'm afraid that's all I can refer to you now.

I've only fully completed Vol. 1, 2 and about a quarter of Vol. 3. Like I said, It's pointless for me to make correct answers if I haven't even completed G.U. yet. I'm only basing my theories with Trilogy and vol. 1,2 knowledge. But thank you for your replies though. I've learned a couple of things from you in this topic.
