Welcome to Gaia! ::

I don't remember who it was that pointed out that Soubi is actually Beloved's warcraft, and that Loveless' warcraft could show up at sometime, but thinking about it, where and who is Ritsuka's real warcraft? Soubi is kinda like a borrowed one. I have a weird idea as to where Ristuka's warcraft is, but I wanted to know if the manga reveals this tid bit of info, and if not, what does everyone else think?

My friend and I have a few theories:

1. Soubi. My friend thinks that Soubi might possibly not be Beloved at all, but Loveless, because the name on his neck looks very forcibly carved. I mean, Soubi's name looks like a scar, while Yamato's and Kouya's look like drawings.

2. Nisei. Kinda fits, ne? Loveless having Beloved's Fighter and Beloved having Loveless's Fighter?

3. Ritsuka himself. I just thought that... Because of what Seimei said in that dream thing: "That was a good spell, Ritsuka." Doesn't the Fighter usually cast the spells in a "battle" of sorts (if the dream thing counts as a battle), not the Sacrifice?

Yeah! And it's also weird that Soubi never introduced himself as "Beloved" in the anime. I _think_ he did from the manga scans, but they could just be lazy translations? Anyway, he _did_ take off the thing to show that he's Beloved, but he never called himself that.

I don't think it's Yuiko, but I do agree that it might be Ritsuka himself. Here's why:
1. If he had a fighter, wouldn't said fighter have shown up by now? It seems to me the warcraft and sacrifice share a special link.
2. The name Loveless implies 'one without love', and if the dream sequence is a prediction, as Seimei hinted, then it would make sense for Ritsuka to be his own warcraft.
3. His implied personality change. What if when Seimei told Ritsuka that his real name was Loveless, it triggered an awakening of sorts and awakened the fighter?
4. The mention of a word spell in the dream sequence.
5. I just fits.

Exactly. His personality thing is what made me think he was both the sacrifice and the warcraft. The warcraft tends to be reclusive where as the sacrifice is more out going. Ritsuka was origianally very out going, then became reclusive. Once he makes friends with the kids at his school, he's very out going with them, but with everyone else he's reclusive.

About Ritsuka being his own warcraft: wow! I had never thought of that, but the way that you guys are putting it makes it seem possible. Veeery interesting... 3nodding



I don't have pictures now, but in the final episode of the anime and in episode three, they show pictures of Seimei without any covering on his neck. It's bare. I could take some screencaps though and post them up here if you're curious.

(I'm not sure if it was episode three- it could've been sometime around there gonk .)

And, using Midori and Ai as examples, their names weren't as intricate or scarred looking (were they o_O)? They were simply a name. Soubi's looks almost like a collar.

They weren't. Hmm. ninja

And as for those Seimei pics - hmmm. How very suspicious. Either this is implying something...or Yun Kouga just messed up drawing Seimei. xd
