Well that blew a theory out the water. Each them have an offline persona. Here:

Aida Asumi (Sakuya)

Asumi, Iori (though not Nakanishi), and Eri...So, they're all japanese players we haven't seen before AND all girls? o-o Quite interesting and does blow out many theories indeed. The names of the episodes are very interesting too.

Eri reminds me of Rika Furude..somewhat o-O;

lolz. AIDA makes a cameo appearence in Sakuya's offline persona.

So Tobias is actually a female player. For some reason, this doesn't surprise me.

Eri actually reminds me of Yomi Isayama from GR-Z:

With the episode titles I'm expecting The One Sin and Hermit are all some elaborate ploy by buttrice. But the WP initials are interesting... I'm sad the cast isn't actually more international... I could swear someone else was from Aomori but I guess I never added it to the wiki...

These guys look even more boring than Mai Minase (even though I like her), the real life versions of the Sign cast, and EVEN the guys from Online Jack... WOW! No really I am amazed at how they make me feel underwhelmed as all hell already.

But hey guess I shouldn't complain, at least they aren't flaming like Tokio was.

Dude, you look boring. This looks like it would be interesting even as a standalone show. I for one think Iori is awesome.

EDIT: Also I didn't notice it until I wrote about them, but they have a serious Peter Parker alliteration thing going on. All vowels too. AA, EE, II...

I always knew Balmung had a feminine side to him. But know it's been cemented in the .hack timeline xD

Yeah but what about that shamrock and smith dude? Judging by the names they might not be japanese. :?

Dude, "Tobias" and "Mary" were Japanese. And "Shamrock" isn't even a name...

A shamrock is a clover, as in: Ireland, leprechauns, that whole bit.

Yeah they make it here but as far as I can tell they sure don't sell it here. Like Pißwasser in GTA4.

And I'm reasonably certain Shamrock isn't made in Germany...

Boring, inadequate, and a complete buzzkill? No. I don't think he'll be that.

Well then, may the stars NOT shine upon you until the end of your journey!

Also, I'm disappointed because I just realized the other pattern. I was hoping the "Quantum" in .hack//Quantum would be the real meaning of the word, like in Quantum of Solace, and not the hypewagon meaning like Quantum Leap. Well, actually that's a horrible example because the phrase it's a play on uses the right meaning, as in incremental, though the show uses it like "yay quantum mechanics means quantum!" But anyway, if I remember my modphys, †, φ, and ω are all variable names used in quantum physics... Still no idea what WP is. That's something I'm dying to know...
