The Skeith battle theme from .hack//IMO games is one of my fav boss battle themes ever.

The One Sin

.hack//frägment (Online Boss battle)

.hack//G.U. (Reminiscence and Redemption)

Reputable for its existence as the CC Corp Event Boss that gave Balmung and Orca their reputation title Descendants of Fianna as it was deemed nigh unkillable, it reappeared in frägment as a boss for you and two other players to challenge as a final boss. Following the original series, The One Sin returns in GU in a chain quest starting in Volume Rebirth to trigger it's activation in Reminiscence to give you the Shimmering Scale as merit proof of your success once finally conquered in Redemption.

"I wouldn't have made it this far without you. What am I to do when you start doubting yourself?"

BlackRose was my number one dream cosplay as a kid! I loved .hack//Infection, Mutation, Outbreak and Quarantine so much. I originally made this costume in 2015, but this is my rebuild from 2020. For the armor, everything was made out of EVA foam, and the breastplate base was an old strapless bra I had lying around. I re-purposed the tights, loincloth fabric, and wig (just re-styled it) from my 2015 cosplay, as well as the sword that was built with the help of my brother-in-law back then too. Everything else was created new, and since I was furloughed at the time I had all the time in the world to get everything perfectly how I wanted.

I even designed the tattoos myself on Illustrator! They're available for purchase on my ko-fi.

Okay this has actually been on my mind for the last few days and I'm finally going to spill it.

I've got this conspiracy on the identity of Helba. I don't have much evidence to back it up, but honestly in my heart of hearts I believe this is her.

Kaoru Asaba.

Upon watching the second episode of Liminality, both my cousin and I saw this woman and pretty much immediately agreed that this woman was Helba. I can obviously only speak for myself when I say that I was expecting some sort of reveal there.

It never happened, but I'm okay with that. I still think this is her.

Both the English and Japanese voice actors remain the same for Asaba and Helba, which is absolutely significant (they also remain for Emma, but considering she's deceased at this point in time, I feel it's alright to disregard that information for the time being)

Also acts the exact way I would expect from Helba- She's strong, she's confident-- But she's selfless too, and she absolutely knows WAY too much. What she says at the end of the episode also SCREAMS Helba to me.

It's just a conspiracy theory for sure, but it's one that I'm believing in unless someone can disprove it with knowledge from elsewhere in the series. (And please, if you CAN disprove it, please say something I need to know if I'm actually insane or not)

Well, happy .Hacking, everybody! I'm off to maybe watch GIFT soon... And probably keep watching SIGN with my friend.
