Yea. The neat thing is, no one really noticed the pattern until the author revealed it in the official guide. :o
In fact I remember people bitching about Dark Horse translating the 11th’s name as John Bacchus, instead of John Balks like all the fanlatons were doing. At the time, Dark Horse didn’t say anything and just ignored the remarks. Now with everything explained, those bitchers were proven wrong. :lol:
Although I doubt they noticed the pattern either… probably a case of the author telling them the secret to smooth the official translation.
The official guide also revealed that…
#1: Akise wasn’t in the First World. Deus created him in the Second World because he was suspicious about Muru Muru (which were not present in the First World). That’s why Yuno had the most trouble with him and he completely threw her plans off the rails all the time. Obviously he’s not in the Third World… though if he were, I’m sure Tsubaki would have been his girl…
For me, it pointed out that…
#2: Tsubaki predicted Yuno would betray Yuki waaaaay at the beginning arcs, which Yuki thought was an entry from her diary at the time, but she replied was her own woman’s intuition.
Didn’t really catch that part when the saga ended.
