If any of you watch the terminal disc..the girl appears to the person talking also, which sorta freaked me out to

He said that she disappeared like the wind, she was the only AI left within.

Most people think that's Zefie. Saffron hair, white dress, bare feet.

Assuming that the picture of Bordeaux is correct, it simply looks as if the infection wasn't removed.

Whereas this Eina has a black gothic lolita dress.

But umm... Haseo pwned the AIDA that was inside her... I think she gets another one or something... Sakaki actually still has his, they weren't very thorough about making sure falling off the virtual cliff killed him...

I don't remember him talking about the dress, just that she was against the sun, but he did say "bare feet" and Eina gots boots.

I recall seeing a picture of her...

Add to that the fact that 'Zefie' is based on 'Zephyr', who I believe was a God of the Western Wind, and she did disappear into the wind.

I recall seeing a picture of a blob of light... (EDIT) Er, if you mean Bordeaux, how does that rule out her having gotten infected again? The entire reason I even brought her up as an example of someone who might have been infected twice was because of that very picture in the trailer where she is an AIDA PC...

I'm not really arguing that it isn't Zefie, I'm just trying to establish without loose ends that it isn't the chair girl.

I was talking about Zefie, not Bordeaux. XP

I remember a picture of a girl that gave off an aura of light, but she looked exactly like Zefie, with the same hair, dress, and bare feet...

I guess I'll have to reaffirm what I saw.

You mean the exact opposite of Aura. White =/= Black. Eina has messy hair, Aura doesn't.

Building off of that, the poll in the most recent issue of [The World] Magazine seems to have confirmed the "Eina" Ovan refers to in the Vol 3 preview as being spelled "AINA". As Kuukai's said, the only probable meaning I can think of is Artificially Intelligent Network Anomaly. Maybe AIDA's work has begun to bear fruit, and this is its form? Or could AINA have existed all along, and caused AIDA instead of vice-versa?

Kouen · Post by **Kouen** » Fri Dec 01, 2006 6:27 pm

Well AINA did appear in a flashback back in episode 17 of Roots, so AINA existed before Haseo started playing The World.

Post by **Kuukai** » Fri Dec 01, 2006 7:09 pm

Poll? Umm, scans? Anything? Does it talk about her anywhere else? I'll probably be picking the newest The World up, but in about two weeks or so...

Magus · Post by **Magus** » Fri Dec 01, 2006 8:50 pm

Oh, I see. I'll go fish up the link to the thread soon. It was a Poll asking readers what they thought the last boss of the series would be, and AINA was one of the options.

Edit: Here's the link to the thread.

Just because it's all capitals doesn't mean it's an acronym for something. "AURA", "EMMA", and "OVAN" are also in all capitals. As for why it's spelled "Aina", someone brought up enough evidence to support that that was probably the proper spelling anyway. We only heard the name by ear anyway.

k i believe its not Sakubo. But it kinda looks like the girl who helped out Pi in Roots, but its proboyl not her.

Saburo? Saburo had greenish teal hair and he quit The World after parting off in good terms with Haseo.

Actually, he didn't quit. He said that he would watch over Haseo because it's fun, and even tells Haseo that he will be there to help when Haseo gets lonely.

Oh.. really? Sorry I stopped watching Roots after the Haseo's awesome animation <_<. But Aina existed before Haseo, which is when Saburo was still part of TaN's black ops unit. I'm beginning to think that Saburo is hidden somewhere in Haseo's party members.

Or watching Haseo from "a distance". Saburou will hopefully become a party member in Vol. 3 along with the rest of the //Roots cast.

Episode 23 had the best animation ever... It's like Haseo levitated and turned with the camera...

As they've released a set of ten characters saying they're all the allies in Volume 3, it doesn't look like Saburo will join Haseo's party.

However, I could see her appearing during Volume 3, at least to talk to Haseo, out of the characters in Roots that have yet to make a confirmed appearance in GU, Saburo is the most likely to appear, Tohta being the only other one I could see reappearing.
