(A new characters and Rives Characters will be labeled as Chrono Link characters)Editor Comment: I love Persona 5, but creating the group something might gonna be the same as P5 formula, but let's do different to be honest, not all this character is a high-school student. It is just my hunch or came by accident, but sometimes I do find it interesting if there's gonna be a clash between group to group so I creating Chrono Link Guild for this purpose, but I do want to give it different purpose than just being clash to clash group formula.Besides that, they had two goals to free all missing players & twilight knights, and obtaining a Chrono Core. I really wanting LINK Story could focus on the very new and original story of its own with original characters, while RIVES serves as an opening for the story and its character and Chrono Link's story proves how their story continues to become serious.Not just Tokio is Kite fans, there are few members who also liked legendary heroes a lot, but as for Ninjato well, he's the number one fan of Subaru lol. I think the Chrono Link guild is much like the association for Twilight Knights or Reiko's alliance or more like an ally to Aura, the story will focus on not just Tokio, but Chrono Link members will also get a spotlight.
* Ninjato (Hiroyuki Nakita) - The shopkeeper of the video game shop that Tokio and Akira always come visit after school and he is the most fans of all heroes from the previous revision, which they were known as The Legendary Hackers who fought the abnormalities that became a threat to the world network. No one knows about his past, except that he was used to working for Cyber Connect Corporation for 15 years and quit to become a shopkeeper. 
** Although, he is very aware regarding the distortion happens in The World and he's been secretly the only man who knew the secret connection that connected to the crisis with CC Corp.
** Editor Comment: You all remembering him Hiroto Niizato when he first appears in the manga version of .hack//LINK as a supporting character as his character was based on the real-life person with the same name who was an author to LINK -Twilight Knight-. However, since he reappeared in RIVES as a supporting role, I thought it might be too much a bit problem to using his name without permission, but instead renaming his real-life name as Hiroyuki Nakita, his design will change a bit.
** Editor Comment 2: Even though his design has changed, his personality brings a spirit and inspiration from Hiroto Nizoto who admire the past legendary heroes and also how he loved to work toward the series, and so his character personality had been kept in result, Chrono Link also expanding his role as a major character that he has a connection with CC Corp's secret, as Ninjato join Chrono Link there are few secrets that will be revealed as the story progress.
* Kyushu (Shiho Ninomiya) - The former member guild of Raven and ally of Tokio & Akira during their time in The World R:3 who was a high school student, after the crisis that happened in the online game, causing her to disappeared from the world. But revealed she was founded in 2010 timeline to assist the hackers' group to fight against Cursed Wave and Team-up Tokio and his friend to fight against Schicksal and obtained Chrono Core. 
** Her story will be continued from RIVES and her goal will soon be reached with her awareness of his brother, Takeshi was the member of Schicksal Guild.
** Editor Comment: In RIVES she first appeared as discipline character who were mature and responsible for the task he had been given from Sophomore, She join raven in hope she can find her distant relatives, Although she kind to each other, however, she lacks social skill causing her friend shunned her during her middle school and even now. As she progresses through development, she developed to learn how to be more social to her friends after went through a battle with Tokio and Akira during Raven Arc and became friends with them.
** Editor Comment 2: She had returned for action in Chrono Link as a victim of the disappearance of the players and arrived in 2010 Timeline where the Twilight Incident happens due to Akashic Records, she rejoins force with Tokio and Akira once again along with new ally, Saika and Alibaba to help them find the Chrono Core. It seems that Kyushu will make a friend with Saika who is also wanting to find her long lost relatives, although it might have new dynamics interaction between her and Saika.
** Editor Comment 3: I think it might be interesting to expand Orgel's development by adding Kyushu which revealed to be his young sister, there's a lot more story between sister and brother who share the same problem in a different way, even they become an enemy, she still calls him as her brother. I think that's how the story will impact on Saika's development, or so I thought lol.
* Alibaba (Mio Shinomura) - The Legendary of Prestigious student using hacked PC who venturing the Akashic Records log timeline data to discover the past event that happened, but she's also a victim of the disappearance of 20% population. Her reason for discovering the secret of Akashic Records was unknown, but it was a purpose for her research to understand its knowledge and discovering the impact on the entire network. Her ultimate skill as a hacker became a key to the Chrono Link Guild success. 
** Her past was a mystery for now and the key to her past memories will soon be revealed as the story progress.
** Editor Comment: I think Alibaba was based on my favorite character from Persona 5, Futaba Sakura who skilled as a hacker and joining phantom thieves as Oracle. but to be honest, Alibaba's character might be too familiar with Futaba and they might gonna say that I'm copying her character. But, I think to decide to make Alibaba look different Futaba, but still became the main inspiration for Alibaba's character.
** Editor Comment 2: She born as an orphan, in a harsh and unacceptable society, with her skill as an extraordinary hacker who can unlock any most private information or stealing money from the bank, which how she became a criminal to society. I want to make something that becomes an example of .hack as she hacker born in a dark society making her grow secure but harsh in-depth way how she grew through the environment, she can lie, steal, and deceive them.
** Editor Comment 3: Her character had gone through change during Crimson Empire Arc as shown she joins forces with Chrono Link and she learns how to speak properly which not so harshly, but also how she builds her character as makes her learn how to improve her life more and as a girl who wants to experience a normal things she had desire.
** Editor Comment 4: Although her role as navigator might copying Persona 5's formula, so I think it might be good for her to be useful in combat as well, I might gonna think about 9S from NieR Automata.
* Sol (Soma Shigemura) - The thirteen years old student of middle schooler and Tokio and Akira loyal kouhai who were together in the same school, he also become a greatest friend and allies who were together to investigate the mystery about ENTIES during their time in The World R:3, he is also being listed as the victim who were gone missing after the crisis of The World R:3. It is revealed he was trapped in the 2016 timeline at The World R:2 Era where he became a member of Twilight Brigade's guild and met with Tokio again when he was separated from his friend. 
** His story continues from RIVES as he searching the finest clue regarding what his brother left behind after his death during the RIVES event.
** Editor Comment: Sol is the well-developed character, in RIVES at the beginning he first appears as a coward and weak who always been bullied by his friend, however, his skill at fight and hacker made him most exceptional but lived on insecure for his life. but as the story progresses after he met Tokio and Akira he grew to become the strong character and had a confidant with himself, he became a supporting character, but also major toward Tokio's life in R:3.
** Editor Comment 2: In Chrono Link, he returned in the second episode same as Kyushu as he included on the list as the missing players and right now he became a member of Twilight Brigade in an alternate timeline 2016 and helping Tokio when he needed the most also become a most valuable member of Chrono Link due to his big help in RIVES event making him a much vital to the guild.
** Editor Comment 3: He will have a big role in Revolution Corrupted Arc in Alternate 2017 Timeline.
* Nishijima81 (Nishiki Kyojima) - The Former delinquent who's popular among players back in The World R:3 glory days and who also used to bullied Sol, but everything changes since he was defeated by Tokio and his friend in the tournament becoming a shame of himself. He was also included in the list as a victim who was gone missing after the Crisis of The World R:3. It is revealed that he was a trap in the 2016 timeline, same as Sol and Seventy-Seven, but he is a member of the TaN guild who was rival against Twilight Brigade. 
** Ever since the day when he was defeated by Tokio in the RIVES story event, he's now changing more than he was before, even how he interacts with Sol even though he couldn't express his emotion to them.
** Editor Comment: Nishijima81 first to appear in the flashback episode 6 Sol's request and he made physically appear in the second season episode 8 Nishijima81. In the beginning, he loves bullying the weak and always arrogantly do for himself, but the value of his life had changed after his loss to Tokio, Akira, and Sol which changing his life most time, fear shame and embarrassment came to him.
** Editor Comment 2: He reappeared again in Chrono Link as part of missing players trapped in the alternate 2016 timeline the same as Sol did, but he went join with the TaN guild in order to make a chance to fight against Sol once again for the embarrassment that happens to him. but as the story progresses, his heart changes and developed to understand the difference between him and sol, with Sol's determination to help him, has made him realize his mistake and want to learn what it means to be the strongest as he developed his friendship with Sol.
** Editor Comment 3: As he joins with Tokio and his friend, he had developed a sense to protect what means matter to him, that not just keep him strong on the outside, but the inside as well.
** Editor Comment 4: I think this character inspiring something that what I used to be as bullying, truth is when I was an elementary school I used to bully one of my friends at school, and he was weak same as Sol, although this much worst than this, however, he's not dead don't worry, he's still alive and kicking somehow, according to my friend, but somehow I already regret what have I do in the past sometimes it changing his life in worse way, and I know sometimes I can't try to fix the past and those who I already hurt, so I created this character that really fills my heart that someday I could change my heart to be a better person like Nishijima did, but unlike him, for me, it takes a long time to heal the past somehow along with my regrets. And I also have hope that he will be alright and have confidant for himself for the future to come.
* Helos Pierce - A Mysterious boy who seems to have a role to keep watching Tokio and his friend, and begin interesting with them by seeking to cooperate with them to find more interesting information between Shicksal, Twilight Knights, Akashic Records, and Network Crisis. Although he is weirder than anyone expected, he seems to hide his motives for his agenda and hiding very information that no one aware of. 
** The reason why he so interested in Tokio is very unknown, but it seems that he has known Tokio from a long time ago.
** Editor Comment: Helos Pierce is a mystery character that holds the key that connected to the third season, with his origin remains much mystery than that, as to how he aware about anything that related to CC Corp and The World. I have a feeling he could play a key to the series dothack and how it connected to him, but right now he joins with Chrono Link Guild with unknown motives but the only answer is how he wants to help them. Who knows what kind of future holds for him, but his connection with all events of dothack series has tied up to this story and the future development.
* Seventy-Seven (Akihiko Yamashita) - The one who guides Tokio and Akira during their first log in into The World as X7 and he is a college year student who is older than any member, also an ally to Tokio and his friend during their investigating the event of ENTIES back in glory days of The World R:3. After the few members of his friend missing, he decides not to use his regular PC and instead of using his ultimate hacked PC known as Seventy Seven which he had created when the time comes. But due to his login into The World R:3, it suddenly trapping him into The World R:2 era in the 2016 timeline.
** Editor Comment: Seventy-Seven is the first person that Tokio and Akira had met and his the one who guides them and learns experience about The World R:3. He is a supporting character who becomes a mentor guide to Tokio and Akira on their first day, and later become an ally to them as he working together to uncover ENTIES's plot. He was much like Brother-Figure to Tokio and Akira making him also a valuable mentor to Chrono Link Guild as he experiencing his playing an online game The World for three revisions.
** Editor Comment 2: His role has quiet to do in Chrono Link as a pilot to Grand Whale and the combat field which he will help Tokio and his friend in need, also discovering a new location of Chrono Core. There are many surprises for his role, but I will explain it later when I had a chance.
** Editor Comment 3: As the story of Chrono Link Episode 3 progress, he will become in the dothack series and for the first time in .hack//LINK remake version, Chrono Link but I really want his so as his story grows from RIVES to Chrono Link with his own DLC Episode, The Meaning of the Right Choice will bringing the true depth of his character development as he is the most important to Tokio, Akira, and his friend.
*** P.S: I think his will be happening in The Rise of the Amagi Arc.
* Kruger (Hiroshi Nagatori) - A former member of Red Dead Guild and the survivor of the assassination of the Davis, although he was not on the list, they thought he could be still in the Real World, however ever since that incident, he never even log out from the online game and became consumed in deep despair and rage of revenge against ENTIES who assassinated his leader, and revealed to be in Possainnue care as he using Kruger's rage to push his goal obtaining Chrono Core to proceed than what they expected.
** In his real life, he was an Otaku who loves a cute girl and AIKA was an example.
** Editor Comment: Kruger at the beginning was bashful, serious, and focus on what mission he had given from his master who is also the leader of RedDead Guild, Davis. His character was something that feels dark, but not so evil in any term, he never trusts anything about trust and loyalty, but enjoyment to PK his target who tried to making embarrassment toward his guild, and do everything to succeed the mission. He was thought to be a rival character to Tokio and Akira, but not so being antagonist as how he has high loyalty to his only master. I can see something that had been started by him as a rival.
** Editor Comment 2: As the story progresses through as he lost to Tokio through battle and Quest, he doubted his own strength and fears with his weakness, it increased into despair after his leader been murdered by ENTIES, I think that's how his character been developed in the first step as shown in the DLC Episode Kruger -Despair- as the one who searching for greatness and power, but tragically become a puppet for one who betrayed his leader.
** Editor Comment 3: But in Chrono Link, his character developed even further after his fight against Tokio and join with Chrono Link Guild, he became to learn the meaning to trust with his friend and carry his leader's legacy & his promise to where he can learn his weakness and move forward through his life as his own self. I think his character development starts from zero, not because of his growing body, but how his life came from the bottom until now. But one most thing that never even explained in RIVES is revealed that he was an otaku.
** Editor Comment 4: You all might wondering why the serious and also mature character has to be an otaku...well everyone has their own secret and privacy, he can't even hold his feeling toward AIKA due to being her cute type Moe character. That was a character I like to make, serious person, but in reality, he was just a perverted guy at the same time.
* Miki07 (Miki Nanai) - The Mysterious girl who was a resident to the Grand Whale along with Toki-Runty who've been spent the time to be unseen by the outside world for years or at most of her life, but ever since Tokio and Sol found her, they recruited her to be in charge for business in the Grand Whale and also partake in the battle as well, this resulting her to be more respectful toward the others as the story progress. 
** No one knows about her past and how long she's been in Grand Whale, but it is revealed by AIKA that she could be much different from her kind as AIDA.
** Editor Comment: I think she's a very mysterious type and lack of human social same as AIKA, but she never knows about any emotion and feelings he had, but once she joins with Chrono Link, she might gonna find learn and meanings to be a human. I can rule out the possibility about her role, but I think whose taking care of Grand Whale might be Miki and Toki-Runty to do.
** Editor Comment 2: Her story and character development might be teased in Episode 3 -Countdown- and explain a few about her origins.
* Toki-Runty/ - The resident of the Grand Whale which in form of Toki-Runty who backing up Tokio during his adventure along with his friend, Akira and other members of Chrono Link Guild. Although he's a free-will Grunty and somehow to be acting like a role model to them, but somehow to be quiet bossy like Saika did. He also is the one who commands the system of Grand Whale, but his background regarding the connection of The World Phenomenon and Akashic Records is still a mystery.
** It is revealed as the story progress in The Secret World of Netslum Arc (Re: Countdown) that his real identity to be , the rumors broker that Tokio taught he's been passed in the real world, although his body remains died, his consciousness been trapped in the online world, thus with the help of Helba as his PC been modified by turning him into a Grunty NPC. 
** He is a unique PC rather than just Normal PC and NPC, due to his skill as a hacker has enabled him to choose his physical form whenever he wants. 
** He's job during his time as was an expectional Adept Rogue, he been gone through Job Extension for 8th Times, which he can select several weapons he wishes too. 
** His real name in the real world as Juon Niisangyou 
* Neil (Chiko Nomura) - The former Chaotic PKs and also the victims of the disappearance of half Population in Tokyo, and thus revealed that she survived as she spent through most hour times and day in Netslum without any treatment, but she obtains the Doubleware EX PC thanks to Tartaga's help which she can survive by helping Tartaga's request. She joined with Chrono Link Guild to help Tokio as part of repayment that he did to her friends, even though she didn't want to admit it.
** During her day as the Chaotic PKs, she severely asking for trade for money or items whenever she wants, including how she able to survive through the dangerous area due to how her skillful in the Real World.
** After what happens in The Way Life of PKs Arc, she became a friend with Tokio and Akira, along with Sol and X7 as she became a comrade who helps them to discover the phenomenon distortion happens, including ENTIES.
** The reason why they unable to track her, because the existence of Netslum and her location was difficult to apprehend, including how the Crisis Network causing other communication of players cannot be contacted.
== Schicksal ==
Editor Comment: You all know them if you all play .hack//LINK, it is a guild that was hired by CyberConnect Corporation and been tasked to taking care of the system of time data of Akashic Records, however, obtaining Chrono Core by messing up the time data was not part of their task and someone had made conspiracy behind leader's back as it revealed in Schicksal DLC.
Their screentime might be expanded, but more stories for them will only be told in Schicksal and Akira's DLC Story. All I can say that not all Schicksal are evil, but they do something in order to accomplish that task as part to repay his leader for saving them, I really want to expand their story and characters, but I can't do that on the main base game, but if there's something that might really an opportunity, and that could be placed in DLC Story.
* Flugel (Ryuji Sogabe) - The mysterious long white hair and a marksman who's revealed to be a leader of organization CC Corp hired by Schicksal. Even his wise and leadership toward his guild, it seems that he's lazy the same as Akira did much they were alike. He's not meant to be a bad guy, although he never hesitated to defeat his enemy, he never took orders from anyone, except his member guild, he just being forced to do it for money, however, he does what's right things even though he just did for the job he had taken. He was titled as The Ringmaster.
** Editor Comment: If anyone playing or being fans of .hack//LINK story and you all might love Fluegel as a character, a lot of fans love to drawing him besides Tokio because the two of them are the best character for them. I had someone who is also fans with Fluegel, although we didn’t know each other, but, she always on Twitter, she draws lots of arts about him, including Tokio, I wonder if she’s a big fan of him, as I already see her drawing more about him and I think it proves that much.
** Editor Comment 2: Chrono Link will expand his natural expression and also expand his character more unique which how made him not so being villain, but not something as a hero or villain either but he is a funny guy who is lazy on being a job as Leader but smart to see the situation that he is. I think its more solid if his character will expand more and what makes him become a great character in Original LINK, even in DLC Story.
** Editor Comment 3: I recommending all of you to read .hack//Bullet if you want to know even more about he’s a character, even more about his past, his story was interesting, because he’s the protagonist in the web novel series.
* Metronom (Souichirou Hoshi) - The member of Schicksal and who is a key advisor to the guild. He's uptight and strict character who needs to deal his job, even dealing his leader's problem for doing reckless way, although he has great admiration for Fluegel during his time in the real world and desire to protect his leader at all cost and will do everything to make mission success, but even so he has a lot of arguments with his leader even though he admired him. He was titled as The Flamethrower.
** Editor Comment: If I want to talk about Metronnom in .hack//LINK and I think how he was handled in Chrono Link has been expanding, including he had a relationship with one character from RIVES and that character affecting his life how it directly leads his decision in LINK Story as how he interest in the Real Digitalization. Mind I giving a hint, he has a past legal PC which was a right-handed man of Blue Moon’s Leader, Yun-EL who already died RIVES event.
** Editor Comment 2: RIVES event has to bring Metronnom’s past and his character toward expansion which his characters have more to tell which only Chrono Link can do. Many new expressions have never been fleshed out in the original, so I think there is something of his character that new. Also, he will become a new boss battle in Chrono Link -Episode 2- like Schicksal member did, also as a new powerful boss in The truth of R.A. Plan Arc.
** Editor Comment 3: Metronome might be strict and selfish enough wanting to reach the goal he had wanted with the Immortal Dusk Project and Real Digitalization, but I think RIVES and Chrono Link had expanded his motives that fit his goals as his childhood friend are proves to be that one.
* Cello (Lilie Weiss) - The member of Schicksal guild who is revealed to be Fluegel's adoptive daughter and she's a key to bring holds her guild together even when they had arguments about Ryuji's reckless doing. Fluegel treating her as her daughter, but she's a little mature to taking care of him when he doing such reckless act for mission alone. She's considered as the smartest member in the group due to her high knowledge, experience, and her skills as a hacker, sometimes she's better than Metronom do. She was titled as The Beast Tamer.
** Editor Comment: If we want to talk about Cello, her character will be extended in Chrono Link, although I don’t want to expand her development too much because I’m afraid sometimes it gonna contradict the story of Bullet, however, I think her character feels something not too feel delighted, however, there’s will a few glimpse that how it connected to her past and few scenes will teasing something that connected to Bullet, I think that’s for best.
** Editor Comment 2: However, some new expressions and characteristics will improve and expand, also extend how she smart enough at programming and also hacking, which something that not something at 10-years old can do, I think Schicksal DLC Story might have a reason why.
* Klarinette (Koharu Nene) - The member of Schicksal guild and she's very skilled with her Gymnastic and fighter while also being so-called as a Spy for Fluegel. For the rest of her life as Schicksal member, she only taking an order from Fluegel for doing a top-secret and she's a most trustful member to him. She does this because due to the certain incident made her having a crush with her leader and she do everything for his leader to succeded the mission alone. Sometimes her heart can be so changed a little when she met Tokio back in real life. She was titled Dancing Girl.
** Editor Comment: Klarinette’s character will be expanded in Chrono Link, but how to handling her will be in a new way. If I look back when I read the manga version of LINK, when as she watching over Tokio training in field area under her disguise as Kumarinette, I might thinking that her character somehow developed as she sometimes care with Tokio and helping him to find his will to fight and his strength, much sometimes little bit step up from what she used to be before meeting Tokio, although she’s a member of Schicksal so there’s no blaming her, to be honest.
** Editor Comment 2: I thought I didn’t know why game version of LINK didn’t do something that what is expected for Klarinette’s development due to limited PSP capacity, but I think those story from the manga version might inspire me what will Chrono Link gonna do with Klarinette, as how she met Tokio and battle against him or Tokio helping him had change Klarinette a little by little as how story progress.
** Editor Comment 3: I think it's very disappointing that Scene where Tokio train with Klarinette won’t happen due to continuity issues, so I want to keep continuity in very straight, but there might be some issues, but I think it’s a better way.
* Trommel (Toramaru Shin) - The member of Schicksal guild considered to be the strongest member due to his strongest muscle and amount of data that he had possessed which also known as the Strongest PC of all time. Back during R:2 era, he was known as the Muscle of Justice until he almost gets PKed by PKK and founded by Fluegel to recruited for his guild. As he works with Schicksal, he abandoned his life as a hero and working for criminal things, and that's his reason he using Akashic Records and changing the timeline program data to obtained Chrono Core and with the change of SIGN Timeline was for an example of his doing. He was titled as Strongman
** Editor Comment: Trommel’s past didn’t get explored in many version of LINK, and I think sometimes it might little bit too salty if his character didn’t get explored, and I think that’s how Alternate 2009 timeline also be a great way to explore his character deeper, I wonder how he and Fluegel met each other and what kind his past before he joins Schicksal, I think there’s deeply reason how much he desires to fulfill guild’s goal as part his repay for his leader.
** Editor Comment 2: He will be an antagonist in the Alternate 2009 timeline, I think I put him as the mastermind behind the creation of the Crimson Empire and how he also responsible for changing Tsukasa and Subaru’s fate also their role that been put in a different place. As Trommel using Tsukasa to escape himself from his boredom and granting his freedom in the online game as also his the one who recruited Tsukasa for joining Crimson Empire, I think that’s how he will have more story in this timeline.
** Editor Comment 3: The battle against Trommel will be based on how the manga version used to be, but with Akira Yoshinori added, the battle will be expanding more.
* Orgel (Ninomiya Takeshi) - The member of Schicksal guild and he's also the strongest member same as Trommel, but he's personality was very tempered when the situation gets too much heated and became many possibilities leading up to uncontrollable anger due to his personal past still intact on his mind. Although his very impatient and always getting angry, he's still loyal to his member and his leader, even he never defy his leader's order due to his debt for helping him back in the real world, but he still had trouble to control his emotion and he wishes he could do it to prevent someone he calls as ally to be hurting by his anger. He was titled as The Fire Eater.
** He's an Older Brother to Kyushu who she had searching for a few years.
** Editor Comment: I want to expand his character that much, I think Roots timeline during TaN home invasion will be perfect way to introducing him as the intimidating foe, but also as his story expand along with his backstory, with Kyushu creates to existence for RIVES and Chrono Link, brings a lot of fidelity and expand his story as his younger sister, I want to create something that connects to siblings theme, and how it can impact on Saika’s development.
** Editor Comment 2: There are lot changes happen In Akashic Records story in the second episode of Chrono Link, but also expand its emotional story between siblings, and how Kyushu’s story had connected to this story, I wonder where is this going, but I had been thinking that there’s another side of his character even though he’s a scary person, but he was very kind character though he cannot express it directly.
** Editor Comment 3: I think it is better not to judge his character from outside and his anger, but we can also look on inside of him that very well, but I think that’s how the world's work right now.
* Posaune (Yoda Maseo) - The member of Schicksal guild and he has his role as a Trickster who brings his word to be a lie toward the others, especially to his allies, he might gonna trick anyone and Schicksal if he had his opportunity. The Former Chaotic PK Miku The Liar and The Former member of Red Dead Guild who was being disbanded after the assassination of DAVIS, and that is how he joins Schicksal when he is recruited by Fluegel. Even he tricking someone in stupid ways, his skills were very not to underestimate as he's very smart to planning everything on his mindset and he will do if they're an opportunity to do. He was titled as Clown
** He is a big major antagonist in G.U. Alternate Timeline in .hack//LINK -Chrono Link- Episode 2 Terror.
** Editor Comment: He’s too intimidating character that ever since I want to explore more about his character as villain, his not just trick and deceive everyone, but his also very smart to how he can play out his plan very smoothly, and I think how he will play a big role as the main antagonist in Alternate 2017 timeline as a big bad villain who’ve been hurt by society who never accepting him, I think that’s how his role will play out.
** Editor Comment 2: To think that his role will be based on what manga version did, but the difference is how he never taking the orders, instead of betraying his guild, although it was a second time for him to commit betrayal toward his authority for sake of his personal goal. If I can relate the Posaune’s backstory between him and the Joker that I watched in 2019 might had something to do that connected to society that leads up to his ambition.
** Editor Comment 3: So far he will set up his own game and strategy to bringing new freedom in his world and possibilities that can overwhelming messing up the timeline, and I think there’s much huge thing coming on him in Alternate 2017 timeline.
* Geist - The Member of Schicksal Guild and Tokio & Akira's friend during their time in The World R:3 before he betrayed them and became an enemy to them. He is now holding a position as also the most trustful member to Schicksal, but his intention is cleary unknown even what happens to him in the past sometimes had something to do with Tokio and Akira. Even so none of Schicksal members aware about his true intention and his fake smile proving he hiding something that he never wants to tell anyone. He was titled as Magician.
** He still holding his wild card on hand as he foresees how the event will play out.
** Editor Comment: He’s the main antagonist in the original LINK who has an intimidating intention and play his own game to reach his personal goal, and you might eventually know about his real identity if you play .hack//LINK PSP, but in Chrono Link, his story had been majorly retconned from RIVES storyline making Tokio and Akira already knew each other, and how Tokio spoke to him sometimes might get different from what the original used to be, but his villainous has improved more and increased its mystery story level on him.
** Editor Comment 2: I think what might gonna be a major contradicts and retcons will be his survival in Episode 2 Terror, as he will survive from Jyotaro’s attack and he might gonna appear In Episode 3, the reason is very secret, but you know the original LINK set in different timeline while Chrono Link set in the same timeline as .hack universe, there might be several people who disagree, but that’s how my vision that I created.
** Editor Comment 3: There is much connection between Geist and Akira, with its source Jyotaro Amagi, I can relieve that Akira’s secret origin might have to do with original LINK, but I don’t know, because .hack’s supernatural only in online world, but what if some elements might could supernatural elements also came up in the real world, well I don’t know, I think I find it interesting between these two, but still.
