It's simply an error. The real name is the Spear of Wotan.

It's easy to use anyone's name with adorable when you want to hit on them or whatever.

And it's not just LOTT. AI Buster had a pretty big one too. X3 Not to mention the whole "etching" situation in Sign... even if it was intentional. ;O;

You know the "kid", translated as male, who keeps bringing papers and such for Albireo? That's Kamui.

So, are you implying that you were hitting on me?
Naw. It's just that you're like some kind of adorable, polite little kid that I want to squeeze >_> Like a puppy or something.

When I read the novel, I was like "Oh, that is SO Kamui." I just assumed Kamui had...gender issues. :D

The name comes from an Opra based on a epic poem called "Song of the Nibelung. One interpretation of Wagners is that Wotanm's spear is what carries out the god's orders and is treated as a symbol of both contract and authority.

Though it still kinda was. They translated AI Buster after Udeden 1, and at that point they knew that Kamui was female, so the chronology just doesn't work out.

The translater listed in the Tokyopop credits in both .hack//LotT vol. 1 is listed as Naomi Kokubo, vol. 2 it's Ben Dunn, in Vol. 3 it's Naomi Kokuto (but that could easily be a typo) and the translater for .hack//A.I.Buster is Naomi Kokubo again... I just thought this info might be useful, take it how you will...

You're a bit confused there. Kamui is female. The English version of A.I. Buster has an error that calls her a male.
