"You go from axes to a Megaman Buster.”

Marco sings the opening

The Pipeline: Chaons in Indines

Chaons are from the Plane of Chaos, a relatively “new” plane on the cusp of being born.

Chaons are a young race and are made of “pure light and ideas.”

They tend to be “representations” of concepts. For example, Iri represents the concept of justice.

Like many other otherplanar beings, Chaons manifest as humans on Indines. They are not always female.

"The name of the game is Ragnarok Online Mobile Eternal Love.”

Brad is Back! Where has he been!

What We’ve Been Doing: Western Legends and Ragnarok Online Mobile Eternal Love

The Pipeline: Evil Hikaru

Evil Hikaru is a Doppelganger who decides to "copy" Hikaru.

He's the opposite of everything Hikaru stands for (hence being Evil).

He's a joke character that's heavily based on Evil Ryu from Street Fighter.

Evil Hikaru can only actually "control" the power of evil. He shapes it into Elements for the sheer aesthetic of copying Hikaru.

Zsolt is the “typical” monster hunter archetype.

He became part of a hunter group named “The Bloody Band” until one of his peers commits a murder, prompting the start of the Seventh Cross Game.
