More Rewrite Questions

[JesterLegacy]

Just finished Terra, and I am a bit confused....Questions are:

1. Did Terra take place after the events in Moon? Which means it is a 'new' world in a new Earth?

2. I don't quite understand the part that Kotori and Akane became younger than the previous routes. Is it also because of the 'new' world, or something else? I tried checking the wiki, and it said about Kotarou using too much of his rewriting power or something, but I couldn't seem to grasp that (I probably missed it for some reason)

3. So....What exactly is Kotarou in the Moon route? A consciousness of him that carries a bit of memory fragments of him from the branches of the other worlds?

4. Are the Earth and the Moon Kagari the same?

Ho nelly this might be a bit long.

1 and 2: The system of aurora is a bit complex to explain here, but basically after the earth had run itself dry all the Aurora fled to the Moon. This is the 'trunk' world, the original. All the worlds you saw in the common/character routes were all 'branch' worlds, layers and layers of dense aurora stemming from the 'trunk' world trying to find a possibility where life may succeed beyond ruin. This is what Moon-Kagari is doing and what her blue-print is all about. Humans, due to ignorance and stubborn war and whatnot ruined the earth and left the world to die, leaving it with 'sad memories'.

Kotori and Akane are younger because it takes place at the beginning of Kotarous childhood. It's because you are seeing the process of how life begins to stem and go beyond its doomed fate. Remember the part where you saw Kagari for the first time in Terra and you had the choices? Did you click them? Baiscally, it explains the 'sickness' and 'coma' that is brought up in other routes. Kotarou was always an original part of guardian, but after being injured by the Key and having Kotori fix him up, Guardian messed with his memory and Kotori's remake portions of him kept him young, and thats where all the 'branch worlds' go. The difference in THIS case is that Kotarou had implanted his love for Kagari in the blueprint in Moon. The aurora, upon returning to the earth, remembered this, which leads to the extra choice. Because of love, because of a simple human emotion, Terra happened and life could emerge with happy memories for the earth.

3: A bit complicated, but basically an echo of all the branch worlds, yes. He is a reaction to Kagari.

4: No. They are.. twin sisters for lack of a better term. They are born from the same aurora, though.

The character description of Moon-Kagari and Earth-Kagari in-game helps explain a lot of this.

So, the events in Terra are the 'actual' events after the aurora returned to the earth, and this time, Kotarou is not injured like he did in the other branches?

So, is the Kagari they met on the moon the Moon Kagari?

Yes. Because Kotarou had put 'I hope to see you again' in the blueprint (love), the new life cycle birthed a Kotarou with that in him, which lead to him being romantically linked to the Key and lead to him not attacking it, which leads him to not getting injured.

Correct. Moon Kagari does, indeed, live on the moon.

[JesterLegacy]

Yes. Because Kotarou had put 'I hope to see you again' in the blueprint (love), the Kotarou that came in the new world line was drawn to the Key and didn't attack it. And that's where the change is.

Correct. Moon Kagari does, indeed, live on the moon.

I see....Those answers explained a lot, thank you

Somehow I'm kid of happy all of that... stuff flew over my head when I played the game... I mean geeze, the more I hear people talk about Rewrite, the more it feels like it's up there with Evangelion.

I think that this part of your explanation isn't correct.

I think that in Terra route Kotarou is simply born earlier than in other routes as in other routes he was always telling that he didn't have enough time to change anything, so him being born earlier is part of Kagaris "Theory" to save the earth. Otherwise there would be quite a few plot holes between terra route and other 5 character routes. But then again every route has something unique that doesn't apply to other routes like Chihaya newer being part of Gaya in Akanes route etc.

Etleast it is how I get it.

I'm pretty sure that he was right.

They always talk about his lack of time, and it should be explained when he first met the Key. If you recall Kotori's route, it talks about how Kotarou used to be meaner and a bunch of things about his past. That was before his coma which lasted for 10 years. The big reveal in Terra was how much older he was than them. The difference in Terra is that he doesn't lose that 10 years and instead uses that time to do all the things that he did to try and stop salvation by creating good memories.

I am pretty much 100% positive that what I said was correct. Thats why it diverges back into the original branch worlds if you choose to attack the Key. The 'coma' that happened in all the other routes, the 'blank space' and why he lost all his time is because of what happened when he was originally in guardian. When you click the wrong choice in Terra when you meet the Key it completely and explicitly tells you that you are going down the other possibility in the flowchart, the common/girls routes, so I'm not sure how you could doubt it, honestly.

Routes are individualized slightly because everything is at least slightly different as accordance with the possibility, but Kotarous past is all completely the same.

[Okami]

Well the thing about rewrite is that every route has something that isn't 100% explained so you can get it in more than one way. Thet is the part of why i like it so match.
