Triedge seems evil in my spoiler he does hav that evil zombie laugh and movment

anyone kno y he came out of a shine of aura? that seemed odd that aura was rock and chained

Triedge seems evil to me and controled by some AI AD clan/group

Haseo seems to b the PKK (player killer killer) wantin ta kill off all the PKs (player killer) and he seems to hav the need to get rev on Triedge b/c of the death (missing) of the girl

but yet he kills off other players does that make him evil tho? evil justice?

idk but wat do u guys think i wanna kno ur thots on Triedge and Haseo

I think most of the characters are yet to be discoverd but haseo does seem good although he pk's in the spoiler of yours im pretty sure but he might be like you said a pkk im still misunderstanding some of the chars. But for triedge....good luck with that. lol i have no idea

yea but i think hes evil i juz gotta wait till the rest of roots to leak out wit english sub lol

Haseo is a Player Killer Killer, (Affirmed by watching a Japanese game trailer) so he's almost a vigilante, taking the matters of punishing Player Killers into his own hands. I guess that makes him an antihero?

As for Triedge, he looks REALLY creepy, I'm making the assumption that that makes him at least sort of evil. I know that's a pretty baseless judgement, but there you have it.

Also, there is a one-page peek at the end of //Legend of the Twilight (the manga) vols. 1 and 2, each showing a small part of a battle between Balmung and who should now be easily identifiable as Tri-Edge. Being a .Hacker, somehow I don't think Balmung would be fighting Tri-Edge if he(it?) was acting for the best interests of The World and its players.

Has Triedge appeared in the anime yet, and if so, in which episode?

hmm Bulmung trys ta stop Triedge thats odd for some reason i do belive that Triedge PKed Bulmung and that Guy wit the shield watshis name is Bulmung!

im not for sure but he does know quite a bit about Twilight key tellin Haseo and his friends in Roots

as far as i no Triedge hasnt been in the anime roots but his markins givin him the name Triedge has tho the eye mark

Triedges final form has Bulmungs "azure sky" tittle in his name

He does make an appearance in episode 8 as an shadow, but he shows his "ugly" face in ep. 9.

As for Tri-Edge, he's basically an rogue A.I. as much as the avatar phrases are. But who created him out of the corrupted data fragments of Kite is a complete mystery, but I have a feeling "she" will be mentioned at vol. 2 or vol. 3.



First off, use proper grammar skills. Second, *spoiler* It was "Azure Flame", not Azure Sky.

EDIT: Mistake in spelling.

First off, it's called grammar

Secondly, I don't understrand why you black out a name, but you you won't black out spoilers for Triedge's nature.

Keep trolling and see where that gets you.

Haseo's a broken hero case due to his experince in the Twilight Brigade that maybe all of the members expect him and Ovan got data drain. (Poor Tabby maybe got it too.)

So he just PKs out of searching for a purpose and to extract vengeance on Tri-Edge for data draining his one-sided partner, Shino.

I don't get why pking is such a bad thing I love it...hehe xD but oh wells

how is he a broken hero? when he first played The World R:2 he was killed by a PK and if i were put in his shoes id do the same and hate all Pkers tryin to stop all PKing

Haseo doesnt PK searchin for Triedge, Triedge has no reason to Haseo PKing Pkers it was that long swords (i belive) char. that first killed him when he had juz started playin

bascally wat u hav said is fasle and do b more accurate

Triedge was probby made when CC corp was makin The World R:2 replacing aura but in fact turned "evil" some way or another
the first time Haseo meets Triedge as far as i no was in some lost ground area said not to exist so probby he is the new Aura comin from out of thin air in front of some kinda of Aura staute (if this statement is true or not im not forsure but this is wat i belive so)

Triedge has something to do wit Atoli (The Mirage of Deceit) when u see Haseo sees Triedge he has a flashback of her so somehow Triedge maybe data drained her or PKed her

excally wat he did to her i dont no but i belive something has to do wit her b/c of the flash back

i juz found out (20mins ago) that Triedge is an AIDA and not created but one...

appearenly an AIDA is a new form of AI ex- Aura, Zefie

AIDA stands for Artitically Intelligent Data Anomaly

wat that means i hav no clue lol but this is very helpful knoin wat AIDA means and y AIDA has been appearing on most videos

Does that mean he can teleport without the chaos gate xD? lol sorry coolio tanks
!

lol yea! he comes outa a blue ball the ground has fire in a lil area he pops out of and poof hes there floatin mid air

Thank you for being so informative, but a lot of suggestions are still speculation, so keep that in mind. I'm not trying to stab you for being mean, because I don't think that's what you're trying to do, but please, many rumors/assumptions will be made and disproven by the time we all play the game.



If you're not even certain of the validity of your own information, please be careful not to come down on others. It's difficult for anyone to 'b more accurate' about a game we only have piecemeal access to.

Which brings me to my second point: Please clean up your spelling/typoes a bit. Sometimes your posts are a little difficult to read.

I apologize if I'm bothersome, as I'm no moderator, but there you have it. And I'm not pissed off or looking for a fight or anything, I just felt I had to speak my thoughts. And I hope that's the end of that.

**Now contributing to the topic at hand**

AIDA, huh? I hope it's not a replacement for Aura... On the other hand if it shows up in the cathedral it very likely has something to do with her...

yea most vids hav the fight wit Triedge and Haseo wit her in the background

AIDA i saw it in a IGN vid it said it was an Artitically Intelligent Data Anomaly from wat i could read the front was small so i might b wrong on spellin but i guess its a new from of "virus" like the ones AI buster try ta kill but much stronger as u can see Triedge bin an AIDA and possible bin the only known/seen AIDA

he was probby made when they made R:2 as of Aura was 2 bein the "core" of The World

-Feedback on Comment before-

your right and im sorry for my spelling im just use to the online type of spelling ill clear things up a bit now

Anyone notice that the one eye you tend to see of Tri-Edge is a little familiar?

...The eye is familiar...? o_O

*Tries VERY hard to remember*

From the games. Appears for a short period of time. Very important.

Man... I know I've seen it... But where? It's driving me nuts that I can't think of it... You know, don't you? Why don't you just say it?

Of course I know, but you trying to remember builds dramatic tension.
it's right near the end.

btw, what'd you get for finished the item event?

*Gets a brain cramp from the effort*

>_< I know I've seen it!! It bugs me so much that I can't think of it!

*Thinks some more*

For the Item event, you get a handful of BGMs and music for your desktop. It's rather disappointing...

It was kind of a memorable moment. Drain Heart!

Edit: Corbenik. It reminds me of of the last form of Corbenik. the giant floating eye. that's what it Tri-Edge's eye reminds me of.

i see wat ur getin at wit the eye thing makes him look evil? or more evil?

all I'm saying is that there may be a connection between Tri-Edge and Corbenik. And it may have something to do with the fact that Corbenik was the only phase not to be Data Drained.

Corbenik... Duh... I thought the answer was less obvious than that... >_>

I have another creepy eye from .Hack stuck in my memory, but I can't think of whose it is...

I know what you mean, Lycoris. I'm racking my brain, but coming up empty...

Someone once said that Zefie is the new Aura that going to appear in the .hack//G.U. games,that so not true...right?I don't believe it.

yea i dont think Zefie is the new Aura aka Core of The World

i think they are like dead or something

more and more i think about it i think and i qoute i think "Triedge is some kinda of new Aura" im not sure but he has something ta do wit Aura i keep watchin the Battle between Haseo and Triedge and i think he has something ta do wit her but not sure what and its killing me!

R2 has no goddess. that is why it has fallen into such a state. Aura and Zefie did not like what "The World" was becoming, so they left. Tri-edge is really Azure Kite's old character, damaged by the destruction of 80% of "The World's" data. Azure Kite is now an AI patrolling "The World" and data draining all the dangerous data. Haseo contains Skeith, who is one of Kite's longest enemies, so he data drains him. Balmung and Orca are Kite's partners in this, their data is still around as well. Ovan was the one who data drained Shino, and Kite appeared, trying to drain Ovan, and Ovan blames him for Shino's state. Ovan later telles Haseo that Tri-edge/Kite will return, but that is only because he leaked to Kite that he would be there. That is when Haseo gets data drained.


Balmung of the Azure Sky, Orca of the Azure Sea, and Kite of the Azure Flame



"This shindig looks like the bomb-diggity."
— Balmung —

Tri-ege is making from players unreturners and making lost grounds
Haseo is trying to help Shino by killing every PK in his way to get to Tri-ege
Once he gets to tri-ege, he returns to his state 1 and to level 1
Then he must get strong again to beat Ovan..(wtf?)

So I'd say that in this serial of .hack there is no good and bad
There is only more good and more bad, Haseo is definetly a heroine
that doesn't make him more good.. so far..

Well personally I think that from the experiences in the previous .Hack game vol. 1-4 that the out-worl may hav something to do with Tri-Edge. The place where all the deleted data goes, but in essence in the ending parts of GU Atoli goes through a wall marked with the Tri-Edge symbol I don't know for sure but I think that Tri-Edge is a connection to deleted data and that AIDA is all the data that was curropted and supposedly deleted. If Tri-Edge was infeted by AIDA I wouldnt think so I just think that I was a virus other than AIDA that his data got somehow altered. I also believe that Atoli's character is somehow connected to Aura; or maybe that her Avatar gives her that ability but I highly doubt that due to the avatars power being suppressed until summoned. If AIDA is what I think then I know that Tri-Edge wasnt infected by it because no AIDA left him when he is defeated. If you recall when you Beat pi's avatar the AIDA I extracted and you can catch a glimpse of it, and when Skeith (haseo) defeats kuhn's avatar Magnus you see no glimpse what so ever it is just data extracted. Also to prove my theory a little more Endrace's cat (AIDA) upon defeat turns into its black blotchy form and leaves, so no I believe Tri-Edge was good but was infected buy a virus or simply extracted bad data lol. Now Haseo is Good he just has a bad temper and ill manners and well pretty much cocky to the core (the perfect example of a mans ego). But he saves Pi, even though he has to fight her and extract data he stil showed concern when she fell. I think he is just power hungry but his friends will help him over come that problem. I think in the next game Atoli's misshap with AIDA will effect him significantly. So I would guess that the only question would be was the little bit of Kite left in Tri-Edge trying to keep AIDA locked up, because he seemed like the key to unlocking it in the end. But if thats the case then Haseo's vengence has unlocked AIDA, however good his intensions may be, to bring back the lost ones (shino in particular). There is no sure guess because of multiple possibilities but what is sure is that Atoli is going to be the key to the puzzle especially if she does share data with Aura like I think. Leaves you thinking huh?

Well Haseo Is good, triedge just doesnt have a choice

Haseo eventually lightens up, but there are still many mysteries....im not going to say anymore than that; although someone probably already gave some away
