I kinda think that the Avatars are collecting data for Aina. The Books are like the installation book given to Kite by Aura. When she reads them, the data is downloaded into her. Which means the Avatars are collecting data on human emotions, still fulfilling their true purpose. And, maybe, the AIDA are the remnants of the first attempts at the R.A. Plan. Cubia could of found a way to fuse with the AIDA (possibly through DD), and learned the plans that Amagi sought out. With this info, he tracked down the first activated Avatar and his user (being Ovan), and fused with him. Ovan, at first, would be willing, and love the new power. But Cubia would find a way into his mind, controlling his character, making him do things he had no control over.
Cubia's true purpose would be to control ALL of the avatars, collecting data to become the new Ultimate AI. Ovan would log off for long periods of time, but somehow Cubia would have infected his mind beyond control, and he would log back on to fulfill his new master's plans.
Which explains further why he wants Haseo to kill his character. To get rid of the parasite Cubia, he needed his character killed, and his pain would be ended. I believe this is how the name Tri-Edge came up. Tri: Three Entities. Edge: ???
Holy hell, you just took a big steaming dump all over the storyline.
1. Cubia is implied to be creating the AIDA, not fusing with them.
2. Ovan doesn't, and never wanted Cubia/The AIDA. And he's not under mind control, he has Doll Syndrome, meaning he's probably paralyzed in real life and unable to log out. Mind control isn't possible, and doesn't make sense since Ovan wants Haseo to defeat Cubia and the AIDA.
3. Cubia's true purpose is to oppose and destroy the Avatars, not take over them.
4. The name Tri-Edge came from the fact that he had three blades. Duh.
ummm....the first active avatar was magus....or tarvos...which ever....
It goes Ovan>Pi>Kuhn>Endrance>Haseo>Sakubo>Atoli>Yata
Actually, Yata was activated before them. And he knew Ovan had his avatar. Pay close attention to certain parts of Rebirth. He talks with Ovan constantly, keeping close tabs on him. And... the title: Rebirth. Kinda a VERY big spoiler. It either refers to Ovan's Avatar, or the rebirth of Skieth.
No, he isn't. He even says that Pi was the first one to awaken that he knows of, including Ovan and Yata. Then again, Ovan was the first to activate and not even Yata knew.
dam those liminality easter eggs!!
looks like we got another follower of the Wrong.
the phases were never for collecting emotions; they were nothing less then the tangible body of morganna.
that. and cubia could never DD either...
Though the Phases can be used for collecting emotions like in the RA Plan, since they're pieces of Morganna, who's purpose was to gather emotions. It wasn't what they were made for, but they can be used for it.
The Terminal disc is *coughnon-canoncough*
*slap*
And it is never truly revealed WHEN he gets his Avatar. He just USES it for the first time seen by Haseo in Vol. 3.
We see Pi and Kuhn awaken, and Yata says that they were the first and second to awaken that he knows of. That means he hasn't awakened yet. He STILL hasn't awakened since then. Thus, he hasn't Awakened.
but, the avatars, even having their own consciousness as seen (on TV) wen skieth attacked magus on his own during the fight, don't seem to be too interested in collecting data...unless they feel one person per epitaph is enough
The Avatars are AI's, but they're not humanoid. They're animals that are probably mad at being bound, yet at the same time emotionally attached to their hosts like puppies. They don't know why they exist, so they just do what their hosts want. For example, when Haseo was wailing on Kuhn and Skeith came to life, he saw the fight and reasoned that his purpose was to destroy Magus.
My bad... I never fully researched this out. BUT, Skieth probably was malfunctioning due to Haseo's carelessness. The Avatars possibly reflect their user's appearance (As seen with the Skieth forms) and emotions.
He wasn't malfunctioning. He just broke free of Haseo's control.
I think CC corp. wanted an Ultimate AI that they could fully control themselves, because an Ultimate AI with human emotions would just end up leaveing just like Aura.
But it's not an Ultimate AI without emotions.
