Question about the end of AI Buster *Spoilers*

Post by Kenpobuu »

So I was rereading the first volume of AI Buster (Alberio is kind of full of himself). After getting to the end, I have a question. Lycoris shows Alberio a memory of her meeting AI Harald at Delta Hidden Forbidden Holy Ground, but immediately afterwards says that she was showing Alberio Morgana Mode Gone. What did she mean? Was Morgana pretending to be AI Harald in order to discourage Lycoris or something? Or did Lycoris actually meet AI Harald? If so, why was she talking about Morgana?

Was this a mistranslation? There were a few.

I apologize for not being clearer. This was an English Tokyopop translation. I believe it might have been a second edition because it doesn't contain all of the errors mentioned in the AI Buster article on the .hack Wiki.

Does the Japanese version have a different meaning?

EDIT: The conversation I'm referring to is on pages 205-217 (specifically pages 208-214) of the English Tokyopop translation. If need be, I can transcribe the exact parts I'm confused about.

This is a mistranslation as I recall right. What Lycoris is actually supposed to be saying is that both AI Harald and Morganna Mode Gone saw her as a hindrance, AI Harald confronted Lycoris about it directly (this is a scene in //LINK but at the time that part wasn't translated. As I recall though Harald did sound very sympathetic towards Lycoris though.) but no, Morganna isn't actually there. That part is a mistranslation.

I had read the AI Buster novels a long time ago. They were available at the library. I was impressed with the quality of these novels. The fragments of significant information pertaining to Balmung's wings was worth reading it.
