Coincidence?

Post by maggosh »

I found this while watching an episode of SIGN. Call me crazy, but is this suggesting the two versions of The World? R1 and R2?

Sorry if you don't understand this.

Lol, you are very observative.
I would say it's probably there on purpose. Besides, the creators always like to throw in little quirks like that.
Thanks for pointing that out though. ^_^

R1 and R2 are both computer technology jargon. The "R:1 & R:2" versions of Za Warudo was a pun.

Jargon? Ham? I think AuraTwilight is starting to lose it.

IMO, it means to be "Resistor 1" and "Resistor 2", not connected with R:1 and R:2

FYI, Resistor is a component from PCB: Printed Circuit Board

[usually, Resistor always indicated by R(number)]

R1 refers to the original The World, pretty much the .hack conglomerate. R2 refers to the new The World (The World R:2) aka GU.

I can safely confirm those are Resistor numbers:

They bare an unremarkable resemblance to the picture depicted on post one. This may however be a slight indication that there was going to be an R:2 as the numbers are coincidently R1 and R2. Nice catch though!

Goodness you really keep up with details don't you?
I wouldn't have seen that;; cool observation @.@
The World is like an enormous labyrinth. Once you step in it, you are entangled by thousands of human relationships, adding to the complexity, never being completey free from it.

Nice catch, but yeah...resistors. Juuust a circuit board [thingy], people.

But by that logic...

!! Did anyone notice what's BETWEEN R1 and R2? Why, it's U2! I think this is a hint that they'll be making a soundtrack for .hack sometime in the near future. Gosh, those clever developers. How they vex us.

I noticed that Tsukasa strikes a resemblance to Elk.

Bear looks similar to Orca.

And the girl at the start of the .Hack//Sign theme song seems to be B.T.

The reason why Tsukasa-Elk and Bear-Orca look the same is because of the PC model they chose, it's the same with Mimiru-Blackrose, Shino-Atoli, etc...coincidence? I think they are just pointing out that it is a MMORPG and that usually happens.

R1 refers to the original The World, pretty much the .hack conglomerate. R2 refers to the new The World (The World R:2) aka GU.
The conglomerate is for The World R:2. PROJECT .HACK is for the original The World.
