I don't think we're going to kill tri-edge in VOL 1..

As well to add onto what AuraTwilight said, Skeith seemed to use some unwarranted cruelty against Magus in the trailer. He seems to pierce, through Magus, which doesn't seem like Haseo would do to a friend like Kuhn, (saying if they are even friend's yet.)

The Phases seem able to select who they bond with, and Tarvos seemed to be the one in control...It also seemed like Skeith came out on his own when Anna appeared.

So, by saying that "being in control" and knowing when to come out on your own makes you an AI, you're in effect saying that Tsukasa's Guardian is also an intelligent being? I have trouble accepting that.

[Xu Yuan]

The Guardian rose to protect Tsukasa at Net Slum, sacrificing itself to save Tsukasa, acting on it's own volition, Macha, had not made a decision and Morganna, wouldn't have done it. So yes, in my opinion Tsukasa's Guardian was an AI, sort of like a loyal dog type thing. (Macha had control over it when she needed it though.)

That can also easily be explained by the epitaph causing people to go berserk. That doesn't need any intelligence. Also, if you ask me, the epitaphs have always been with these people for some odd reason. In roots, Haseo already had weird powers to start with.

[Xu Yuan]

Yes, that is true, which blows my theory out of the window, but how were they chosen and why? Those are questions that will hopefully be answered in the game.

[DarkZero]

I doubt it in the first one too..it would be saying..somthing like.. "Haseo its me tri-edge come fight me! I"LL PWN YOU!!!!?!??!"
-_-

[Church]

it might happen. look in youtube. You fight Tri-Edge in Vol. 1

[Brian4120]

but it maybe like cubia, defeat it but not kill it.

[BlackBahamut]

Well:

 It´s a fact that at the end of "Saitan", you´ll defeat TriEdge in his normal and his Avatarform. After the fight, he breaks apart and explode. Still, I have no idea if he is gone for good. I just think it would have been to easy to just defeat him like that in Part 1. In the end, nothing about him is revealed, and I don´t think that the DDt people will awake now....

I mean, c´mon TriEdge looks like Kite, there is no way that he just die like that without knowing anything about him xD

[Sarah]

True you may be right. but anyhow I don't think he would die so easy so what else is there to think about maybe an clone and copy or some sort or maybe that might be the end who knows until vol.2 comes out to see if he's really dead.
