The Journey of Bergard Zeman: the mystery arc of a man who left everything after faking his death

Leave a comment

Essentially, Bergard is to Auron as Van is to Tidus – Hellseye47

If there is one character that either vanishes amidst the cast on stage, or raises some people’s eyebrows for how suspicious and at times “deliberately unhelpful” he is, that would be, without a doubt, Bergard Zeman, formally know as the Roaring Lion Gunther Barkhorn and informally known among fans as “Yahariman”. Considering how
deliberate Falcom is when designing a role for each Character, from minor named npcs to the main protagonist and his party, this seems…odd. But then we realize we are in an arc themed over truth and lies, as well as the resolve to face and own them.

“White World” – The main illustration of Kai no Kiseki and its ending

Leave a comment

With the beautiful new main illustration of Kai no Kiseki, wonderfully drawn by Katsumi Enami, dropping earlier today there’s a lot to talk about. And through this illustration, I believe we now have a firmer idea of what the ending of Kai no Kiseki may look like.

Land of Lies, World of Nothing

Leave a comment

Sooooooooo, I was in the process of drafting another theory post-Kuro 2 (and actually shared a early draft of it over discord), but was never very happy with it because it felt like two separate theories mashed together that didn’t mesh well together. It also didn’t really have any predictions beyond adding  additional conditions or rules to my earlier theory post-Kuro 1 (Devils, Death, and Lost Time). 

But now things have changed. We  had the first teaser trailer showing off outer space, Gundam mech battles, and Van sitting on what appears to be either the moon or a giant meteor. We then had a second trailer hinting at the return of picnic squad (officially), Rean and his closeted gay lover Crow, KEVIN. This was on-top of Hamilton giving the first true hint that Zemuria is stuck in an eternal recurrence loop and, of course, everything about Hermes is a black box. Armed with a bunch of other theories and reddit posts, it’s time to get cooking.

Nina Fenly: Heretic Hunter, The Death Maiden, and The new Seventh?

Leave a comment

Ever  few weeks to a month leading up to the release of a new kiseki game, Falcom showcases a portion of the main cast of characters in a weekly Famitsu issue. Usually these characters are grouped based on their affiliation or connection. However leading up to Kuro 1’s release, there was one character who’s grouping was considered odd. That character was Nina Fenly.

Epstein’s Causality Engine

Leave a comment

Epstein is regarded as the greatest mind to ever grace Zemuria when it comes to orbal technology. His prototype orbments, the Oct-Genesis have proven to to be extremely enigmatic and capable of some reality defying feats. Yet, as far as we know, Epstein is just a man. Talented as he may be, is it truly possible he could have created objects with such potential in advance of the orbal technologies we have seen across the series?

My new theory is that Epstein created the Genesis by studying and possibly reverse engineering a device similar to AZOTH or the Black Records. Another ‘causality engine.’
