but then that didn't make any sense, she couldn't exist on the island.

Shkanontrice - Ah, so THAT'S why Shannon and Kanon have chats with Beato.

But then the law of unintended consequences gave birth to Moon-chan.

And so the Shkanontrice Moon-chan combo was intact, but there were purists who argued that Jessica was totally unaware that her boyfriend was actually her best friend.

That led to the consideration of Jessica also being FUCKING CRAZY, which led to Fusiontrice, which led to Doubletrice, and the buck stops there, really, all the other theories are just kinda jokes.

Kanon dies in Jessica's room in episode 2 so for him to be Beatrice he has to talk to Battler in Jessica's room and then get killed by the explosion. Battler's drunk so he can mistake where he is and it's also possible that Kanon = Beatrice = Kinzo sooo....

The problem is fans will always go "Oh no Jessica's name is actually Nanjo, she inherited it. Kanon's last name is Kumsawa. Kanon isn't actually his real name, it's a furniture name, it refers to someone outside the island."

Just how is Ryuukishi supposed to shut that up? Deliver red a whole paragraph long about how he means exactly what he says?

The names of the people are a tool used to deliver the mystery to you, and if you ignore the mystery and just try to change or alter those tools, you'll never solve it properly. It doesn't matter if titles are inherited, or new personalities are born, or if people actually had the same name from birth, or whatnot. He means exactly what he says.

The names only refer to the person themselves.

Consider that with Shannon. Who is Shannon herself, the one we actually know as Shannon? Shkanon says she is also Kanon. So whenever you refer to Shannon, you are also referring to Kanon.

Consider that with Erika's theory. Who is George? Both Kanon, who we do not actually know as George, and George, two different people, two different bodies.

It isn't saying "each name refers to an individual person" which would imply no person is allowed two names. It instead means that regardless of what extra name someone has, the name used in red refers to a person we actually understand clearly as that person, not one conveniently created.

Think of it on a trust level. The name is required to deliver the situation to you. If you argue about what "Kanon" could mean, you argue about what is presented, rather than looking at what is presented. Shkanon is a completely different concept. It would not be appropriate if Shkanon meant Shannon is her own person, but also has Kanon's name, and Kanon is his own person, but also has Shannon's name.

I really don't know. It just seems odd that in an Episode where the idea of whether or not a name can be used for someone is discussed in red, two people would have their names not referred to in red in that Episode while everyone else's are.

The second Battler is a huge red herring. The man from 19 years ago in episode 6 is just Kyrie & co extorting Natsuhi. The man uses "boku" in one phone call and "ore" in another.

If you want to talk about the baby on the cliff, think about this. Rosa's "Beatrice" fell off the cliff 19 years ago. Same time Natsuhi says a servant with a baby fell off the cliff. Are they two different happenings? Doubt it. Same happeing, and Rosa didn't see any baby.

Look at the end of episode 6. Erika says she's the 18th person in red, then Battler and Beato say it's 17 in red. The real word play going on is what a "person" means. Seems like it can be based on interpretation.

It would depend on how far along the pregnancy was, as well as when in 1967 the fall occurred, but it would still be possible for the baby to be 19 in 1986 by October 4th.

And? There's no requirement for there to only be five wounds.

Shannon has a gunshot wound.
Kanon has a gunshot wound.

Because they only have 1 body, there's only wound, but they each still have a wound.

Yet again, Ronove was NOT referring to red when he said that. Piece-Battler called them corpses. There was no red said. Pieces are allowed to lie.

You have to be for your argument to make any sense.

Because Kanon and Shannon both had gunshots in different places, and the corpses were witnessed by many people. Each person (referred to as 5) was killed by a gunshot. One gunshot per person.

It says, literal from Japanese, 'Each of the five were killed by a gunshot'. Each means one. So there was one gunshot a person.
