for a while now, people have been saying that kite in the real world has died...
what in the heck are you talking about!
is there any proof at all that he's dead, or is it just an internet rumor?
EDIT: sorry if this is in the wrong forum

The life of dot hack does not revolve around just the characters. .hack is the story of the evolution of an online game. Some players see the game as something more; a different world they can visit to escape from thier own. It just so happens that thier new world also faces conflicts. Each .hack media reveals bits and pieces of information on this new world that these players take part. Players such as Alberio, Kite, Sora, Subaru, Haruka, Balmung, Sanjuro, Elk, Tsukasa, Krim, and others deal with both conflicts in thier world and the game world; trying to discover the mysteries and secrets of thier new world. I would say the life of .hack revolves around the 'the world' itself; not just around the players to strive to find the key of the twilight.lol exactly if mario dies then there is no more meaning to the games.
if kite dies then that just suks alot of life outa .hack
He chose to die. He was Data drained to save the other people put into comas. His body in the real world died, leaving his soul trapped in "The World" and becoming Tri Edge. He's official, not a rip of anyone. He is also the new twilight. He can't escape from it because he can't return to the real world.Tri_Edge1 wrote:nup i'd highly doubt that. he was the hero who saved "the world" y the hell wuld they kill him
