¬_¬ Uh...The fact that Taihaku is, apparently, Balmung throws that theory out of the window...

Who knows, maybe she could be Mistral? Or even Mireille? XP

Taihaku = Balmung OH NOES!!!

Why did balmung have to pick a crappy character model this time?

And that would be funny if Kite was Gabi.

Wow, that's about all the .hackers.

We just need Kite, Mistral(GABI) and BKRose to login(prbably under new characters) and we can have a .hackers R2 reunion.

Infinity8 Meets .hackers in the ova(possbly). Would do ya think of that?

I have a gut feeling  Gabi is Nuke Usagimaru.

Also, is Orca in the game as another character? Maybe he's  Ovan... it's make sense, as Orca seemed to be interested in the key of the twilight when he got the book from Aura before he was drained... "Or, were the rumors true?" "You must be..." so on and so forth.

well... it is know that Ovan must know what happened in the Morganna incident, but it is still unknow because he don´t match with anyone from my point of view, he must have learned everything he know by a R:1 player... and a very special one... maybe Phyllo?

Orca isn't badass enough to be Ovan. Not to mention Orca has no interest in things like the Epitaph of Twilight, is too young even after aging 7 years, and doesn't have a little sister.

Well, who knows... people change with time, just like kids become adults one day, but the age match because he was 14, so he would be 21...

mireille seemed to have taken over for mistral pretty much (despite the one time mistral borrowed the character back) in terms of playing the world.

going to have to find out if gabi called him/herself a girl on the message boards in the original japanese script....that would at least maybe clear up this hypothetical...

Okay, wait, wait. What are actual sources for all this? It's looking like people are all too ready to jump and believe this. Do we have scans from this book or anything?

Kadaaju gets his information from official japanese sites (he can translate pretty well), so his information most of the times is as accurate as AT's (just giving an example). And that's enough for me to believe it.

My threory got pwned by AT.

I dunno what's worse, the fact that I was pwned or the fact that everything AT said makes perfect sense, meaning I had no chance to begin with.

Well, don't think that! I'm sure your theory made sense too. (I didn't get to see it yet because I'm lazy.) Theories are theories, they're there for you to think of them without them necessarily being true. ^^

I'm crushed though. I can't believe Taihaku is  Balmung. I love Taihaku so much. I think he's drop-dead gorgeous...just soooo sexy, graceful, sophisticated, strong, self-sufficient, realistic, mature, hot... Overall, he's the type of guy I'd want. And you ALL know how much I HATE  Balmung with a relentless, undying passion. This is my worst nightmare!!!!!!

(I have a thing for older men. >> As well as men in armor and muscular men.)

I didnt see the  Taihaku=Balmung coming :shock: :shock:

Still I suppose that expalins his honorable warior attitude combined with the snobery that all Ikoro (and ex-Ikoro) members have. Those are qualities common in  Balmung too.

Well... Taika/Antares didn´t have this attitude... which makes me wonder why would him become a Arena Fighter instead of a PKKer... he wanted to have power didn´t he? Well, he could be both anyway

Taika left Ikoro because he got turned of by everyones arrogance. That's why he takes it in himself to teach haseo to teach him respnsoibilty. (kinda cliche no?)

Besides everyone in Ikoro seems to undergo an attitude imporvemtn throuout the story. Yowkow fell in love (awww how cheesy was that?) and Tenrow felt all guilty after Yowkow went into a coma. I wonder if Taihaku chanegs to?

I believe he will. After seeing how AIDA made him act, he'll have some attitude changing on his own.
Although i don't see how he could change. In fact, i don't see anything wrong with him o.o

Yea, and Ovan is like, almost 30.
