This is one of the reasons I always liked the .hack series (other then the awesome games/anime themselves), the music. This is just beautiful and sets the tone in a way only the .hack series can
Roots is actually what happens before the events of the G.U games,up to the point where Azure Kite datadrains haseo. THEN the game series starts.And the special episode is what happens after the games.
i hope they make a series out of this show also most of these characters were during the begining of the dot hackers era and aftert that but not any further than hack quantum hope we see more hack
Mia is the AI Macha not an epitaph user. In fact she herself is the epitaph of Endrance. She and Sora did have the same memory issues but she is not a user.
Actually, there are a few things to throw it off. .hack//Sign Project .hack (original four games) .hack//Sign Ep.28 (.hack//unision in other words. It's a one episode after story of what happened with sign and p.hack characters, a final farewell of sorts.) .hack//LOT .hack//Roots .hack//G.U. (Games) .hack//Returner (OVA, Final Episode takes Roots and G.U. Characters in Final Goodbye) .hack//Quantum (3 Ep. Anime) .hack//Beyond The World (Movie) .hack//Link (I think)
@WaveofTwilight They sold out. That's why. T_T They went from a deep, involved story that made one question their existance to a glorified cameo money wagon. I mean, just imagine what a next-gen .hack game would look like. I'd buy it immediatly if there was one, even if it was just a remake of the earlier ones.
The music for the Hack Franchise has always had a spectacular quality to it. However, the video games I find are tedious to play IMO. I love the stories, characters, plot and music of the franchise, but the video games of the series don't carry the same spirit of the TV shows and manga. Irregardless, HACK is by far one of the best animation franchises out there in terms of Anime.
Ok I know the song is called Stairway to Time, but who's the artist? I've looked around for this soung but can't seem to find it anywhere for download.
Judging from the music, it seems .hack//LINK has an edge that wasn't present in previous .hack games. Not that the previous games were lacking an edge, mind you. I hope it comes out someday. That said, it seems to be fitting end. From night, to dawn, to day, to dusk. SIGN & INFECTION series, Legend of the Twilight Bracelet, Roots & G.U., and finally Quantum & LINK. Even if they decide to continue, they'd have to start again somehow. They can't top Dissidium (the concept).
@fugor001 They arent... It's been about 2years since the japan release, there's no chance of it getting localized, there was even an official statement from Bandai or w/e saying this would NOT get ported.
+prinny god not even a match because unlike Kirito who is a 100% regular player with only a special system granted by admin and some admin previlege . Haseo and kite both have supernatural power that far surpasses the system Data Drain can insta kill him and send Kirito to Koma but besides that cheaty power as a character Haseo's ability to change weapon as he pleases surpasses Kirito with only sword as his only weapon, Kite's ability that exceeds Tri-edge can easily outmatch kirito's speed and power
although if you add the all kirito of different games he can match Haseo's jack of all trades but then again Haseo still have avatar that will simply exceed Kirito in all aspect
Imagine Haseo Combo all his weapon non stop (dothack versus) Kite keep attack with his exceed then Data Drain. (dothack versus) I think dothack is much better bcoz they all against a virus.
can you blame him? he was stuck physically in a game where if he died he would literally experience dying. with all the pain and agony that you would have in the real world, exceptwithout the benefit of the body's endorfins, that normally numb out pain when it gets to be too much. would you be going out fighting monsters just for the fun of it in that situation? also, wavemasters are one of the strongest in the the game. they just suck for soloing since they have no meat shield to protect them
Hm, i like this opening :D but i think the game is dispensable, at least i don't like it. I just like the games for ps2 and the OVAs. They are the "true" .hack. I looove Mistral, she's so funny and cute :D wavemaster forever xD
