W. B. Yeates in LotT

Kaoshima · Post by **Kaoshima** » Mon Jan 09, 2006 3:16 pm

The Hero of the Bracelet has arrived.

With the protection of the Goddess of Dawn
Bringing along the daughter with the name of the western
wind.

Just like the Hero of Legend
Who seized the Light of Twilight in the past.

The will of 20 million continues to talk to The World today
The words of 20 million will turn the Wheel of the Goddess'
Carriage tomorrow

The World will turn
The World will turn

Near the end of the .hack//Legend of the Twilight manga, there is a post by the famous W.B. Yeates, who is playing as Hokuto in .hack// A.I. Buster. Aside from a cameo in the background and near the end (with the other blatant cameos) this character has no interaction with Shugo and his party. Unless Yeates was playing as a different character, he/she couldn't have known the details expressed in the poem. So my question is: Who in .hack// Legend of the Twilight is W. B. Yeates?

They'd have to have been old enough to have been playing The World since A.I. Buster, which is roughly for about 4 or 5 years, so Mireille is out of the question. My guess is that it could possibly be Kazu, but that's just a guess. My apologies if this topic has been covered before.

My guess? Hotaru.

yeah but the thing is in the Book .Hack//AI Buster W.B plays as a low level player to decive people.

She doesn't appear in person in the main story of LotTB. She's shown (using her Hokuto character) in the Rena Special manga, where we learn that she's been a friend of Rena's in the game ever since Rena's first character.

I see, but... lemme guess... that one's only out in Japan right now, right?

Wasn't it included in A.I. Buster 2? I think I may be confusing it for something else though...

You're getting it confused with the short story .hack//Rumor, which appeared both in the Rena Special and in AI Buster 2.

Right, and so far as I know, there are no plans to translate it.

It's not a manga. It's. A. Book.

The relevant manga is 16 pages. The volume as a whole is 48 pages, containing this and a couple of other manga segments, the story //Rumor, and a few other activities.

Okay where can I find it. I'm waiting for the copy of .Hack//AI Buster 2 to be mailed to Books-A-Million so I can pick it up. Did you say that it will be in AI Buster 2?

If you mean the special manga with Rena, then only through the Rena Special Pack I believe.

It's not in A.I. Buster 2.

I have a feeling that's not going to be released yet. Is it? Darn.

Hokuto isn't Rena. They're two different individuals. Rena, however, did have another avatar.

oh sorry i thought some one said hokuto was rena

Cless · Post by **Cless** » Mon Feb 20, 2006 2:27 pm

Maybe the character name Rumor.

... urr, sorry to bump a 7 day old topic, but Hokuto does appear in UdeDen manga. You see her PC in one frame, though I can't think of the volume or the page, you do it see it. T_T;;
