  • Did Kite turn into Hatsune Miku?

  • They should of continued the series, the best hack so far.

    D:

  • @DesolateIsolation maybe its the best cause theres so little

  • Ugh......after G.U. the story just fell apart for me -___- I just watched the entire series of this and I'm disappointed at .hack Conglomerate. Not to mention .hack//Link.

  • @DarkFearno This OVA showed that there is still potential with the premise. If you haven't seen it I give it a thumbs up recommendation.

  • @fkkkkkenig I did see it. Didn't like it. Animation is pretty great though. Once .hack//LINK came out though, it just went downhill for me.

  • @DarkFearno I'm not a big fan of LINK either. Supposedly there's just a movie left coming out, it supposedly ties everything up and ends it. The announcement should happen in a day or two, going by CC2's website.

  • @fkkkkkenig Then there may still be hope for me with this franchise.

  • is not kite xD

    only have the same character but in female version :)

  • ok ok if they got the animes why not yet the M3D´s M2D´s man even if be the world R:1 in a M1D.I want a game that is virtual realyty!Guyz help me!thumbs up for this post and try to post this in other dot hack videos and if get a better idea just do it!

  • Whut... even is kite is a girl now.. we all know he is still a guy , in the real world LOL just like real MMORPGS XD !

  • ......Why is Kite a girl....?o_o

  • @VoiceOfReason7

    because it aint kite

  • @VoiceOfReason7 based off of this short series, .hack//Quantum, the three female characters are based off of Kite, Black Rose and Balmung... aka it's not actually them.

  • @azianfool Does this have anything to do with that actually story?o.o; Or is it like Legend of the Twilight?

  • @VoiceOfReason7 IF you have seen the other series, you should know. <_<

  • @Spaxuable I've seen twilight bracelette and played dot hack and GU. This was not mentioned =_=

  • @VoiceOfReason7 Kite has become somewhat of a legacy character this isn't kite but somebody else who uses a similar avatar.

  • @henritje19 Like Shugo?

  • @VoiceOfReason7 That's what I SAID...! Not that I'm complaining... +3+

  • @VoiceOfReason7 Because 1)They tried in japan and koreak Hack//fragment it failed, 2)Its not kite, In the trailer they call her "Unknown player" Kite after the first four games has permantly retired, just like Tsukasa, the only characters in this trailer from previous installments were blackrose and Balmung.

  • when will the world exist to the public in the scence.

  • no Haseo,no watching sorry i will still leave a like

  • this is fanservice (appearance of similar looking characters).

    the first ep was good, the second ok, the third was rushed like frak.

    I would rather have the .hack//link manga animated but no chance of that.

  • @kensogoiinAmerica I thought it was just too frakin short O_o I thought it was fantastic.

  • why the FUCK is .hack not an MMO yet?!?!

  • @JanValentine417 i know seriously they would probly make alot of money if the made a version the was online and was released in america

  • @JanValentine417 i know right D:

  • It was an MMO in Japan years ago, but couldn't cut it in the long run so it was discontinued.

  • @boiya0 yeah but the game was cheaper than the first game and got out at the same time as GU...

    no wonder it didn't work

  • @JanValentine417 Get Bethesda (I trust them to make a QUALITY RPG now that I tried Skyrim) and have them meet with CyberConnect2.

  • BALMUNG OH MY GOD.

    I will always love your original form in SIGN or your crappy graphics form in the games.

  • Im just watching one piece and i find this!

  • Fuck yeah, a new .hack. (even if it is only 3 ova's)

  • Ahm, why did Kite change sex O_Ou?

  • @Temarioneesama a girl is playing kite

  • @darksuper54 OMFG so its not Kite & Konata's daughter XD?

  • Okay they need new character designs T__T it's really making me mad seeing the same ones, in Twilight I was already mad those kids got the outfits, and they kinda ruined it big time for me -__-;; not trying to hate but really? Your better then this .hack

  • Oh GOD yes!!! Finally my dreams have come true! x'D

  • can anybody tell me what this show is about???

  • anyone mind giving me a good summary of the hack series cuz right now im watchin da anime, I'm on hack//roots. and i'm lost as to who some of the characters are and I dunno which is the first season, now I didn't play the games either can yall summarize dat too, Please. I'd appreciate it:)

  • @Sipher91 oh and whos triaj?????

  • I wish there was à mmo of this anime that would be so awesome

  • @robbinx1 i know right? virtual reality.. i wish i was born in like 2050, or atleaset a world with virtual reality games ;]

  • This will be the BEST one, you know why??? because PIROS THE THIRD is in there!!!

  • i really like this ova series, it kinda has a .hack// sign feel but lighter, also girl kite reminds me of myself when it comes to mmos, loot everything sell stuff when your inventory overfills.

  • @thesacredbeast2000 wait, kite is a girl in this one, or is it a girl that won some character price?

  • @SuperZalex im pretty sure its just come to the point where they were handing out so many kite outfits for contests that they just made it basic customizeation

  • @thesacredbeast2000 huh....weak

  • Yaaaay~ :D I like this OVA so far~

    I dont mind at all that they have the same Outfit as Kite and Black Rose >v<

    I'm pretty happy over it :3

  • i watched the fist part this morning. It's just as good a sign in my opinion i like how there's look alikes from the games. i think it's funny that my anime site has the airing dates wrong it came out like a week or so ago but it says that it originally aired in December

  • Comment removed

  • Are they going to have a game for this? since .hack//link was complete shit.

  • man i love .hack

  • I want a MMO game like .hack!

    Btw, very excited to watch this!! love the song!!

  • @reinoheya Same,same and same. :D <3

  • @reinoheya There already was one, but they shut it down.

  • @BradleyMcCloud

    called .hack//kyat? :|

  • @reinoheya .hack//Fragment was released on November 23rd, 2005. It was never released outside of Japan. It has about the same gameplay as .hack//Infection to Quarantine.

  • @BradleyMcCloud

    Yeah I heard of it. its shame they didnt release it worldwide.

  • @reinoheya It's not that fun at all from what I can tell.

  • i find this very interesting seen the first episode..and it combines many aspects of the first and second world so includeing aida

  • After watching and playing the original .hack// this bothers me so badly, but I'll give it a chance considering Miku Hatsune is playing Kite

  • ....i'm only watching this because the main character looks like miku hatsune....

  • I'd play the siht out of this game and quit wow lol, I want a virtual mmo before I grow out of it!

  • Finally they have full on cat characters...... unless its another hack

  • Watched the episode. the player character behind Sakuya(female kite) is the spitting image of the main character from K-on, Yui. The three main characters are all girls including the Balmung lookalike. Was a pretty good episode.

  • So girl Kite..... Is there any chance of a girl Haseo? ^.^

  • so did he get a sex change or did he get turned into a girl

    havent watched .hack in a lonnnnng time

  • @MckaiserDragon Kite and Sakuya are not the same person.

  • @BradleyMcCloud im not buying that

  • @MckaiserDragon It was already stated by the creators. Word of God says they aren't the same. On top of that, official sites, Wikipedia, and the material books also state that it is a different person.

  • @BradleyMcCloud sureeeeee i'll believe that but then she will be a he by then

  • @MckaiserDragon That makes no sense at all. Why would they change it if it was already stated to be canon? By now, Kite is 24 or 25, Sakuya's still in High School. She is already established as a female icon of the Link/Quantum era. They wouldn't randomly change it because that would actually hurt their marketing and they'd end up losing money over something like that with no explanation.

  • @BradleyMcCloud ohhhh so kite is from the past and when hes a girl she from the future and is 25

  • @MckaiserDragon No, that doesn't happen. There is no time travel in the .hack series. Seriously, pay attention to the plot. I just said Word of God (The creators of the whole series) stated they aren't the same people. Sakuya's player is a completely new character as stated. Watch the series, read the manga and play the games.

  • @BradleyMcCloud ohhhhh so this is the 2nd time he got transformed into a girl?

  • @MckaiserDragon Since when was he turned into a girl? I don't remember that in the series. You must be thinking of Naruto since Kite's character is based off of his character.

  • @BradleyMcCloud nah im just messing with u ive only seen the first season i think not sure but this is one of the few animes that scare me

  • @MckaiserDragon I know you were. I wanted to see how far you would take that conversation. :D

    I don't know how it would scare you... well aside for Endrance and his stalking of Haseo and Tokio. And maybe the evil Aura in .hack//link. What scares me in the series are the Yandere characters like Atoli.

  • @BradleyMcCloud its mainly all the stuff that happens 2 then mid season and also y would they make the girl look just like kite

  • @MckaiserDragon Well, Kite is a famous character in the .hack series. So they wanted their icon in every era. .hack//SIGN has Kite (Unison), .hack//Games has Kite, .hack//Twilight has Shugo and at the very end of the series Kite again, .hack//GU has Azure Kite, .hack//LINK has Kite & Shugo & Azure Kite & Kite (Sora). Quantum gets Sakuya. In the story, there's no rule that says you can't create a PC that looks like another person. Example: Subaru and Kaochin (who is a man in real life) in SIGN.

  • @BradleyMcCloud see i was right he is a girl now

  • @MckaiserDragon As a look alike. Azure Kite still exists, which is actually Kite's character data. Kite's player no longer plays. :( Other examples of look-alikes include Crim and Nuke Usagimaru, Rachel and Puchi, Sora and Moonstone, Natsume and A-20, Mimiru and BlackRose and Rena, Orca and Bear, Tsukasa and Elk, Atoli and Shino. Now, I will tell you who DID geta sex change: Bordueax. She was originally planed as a big buff muscle guy in the original prototype .hack GU...

  • @BradleyMcCloud lol i need 2 watch .hack again from the begging

  • @MckaiserDragon Well, you would need to start with .hack//ZERO. The first episode of SIGN immediately follows right after those events. After SIGN comes the games (the manga isn't canon even though I like the human avatar of Cubia better), followed by .hack Twilight (Manga version. The anime isn't canon). The Roots/GU then LINK and Quantum. I dunno the placement of AI Buster or Fragment but I'm assuming before SIGN.

  • @BradleyMcCloud ZERO? is that one of that manga because i only read the twilight manga which was surprisingly good considering it was the english one at barnes and nobles

  • @Suzumushi100 It's a novel. Sorry, I messed up the placement. .hack Zero comes after SIGN. I meant .hack//AI Buster (showing how Balmung and Orca became legends) and then .hack//Wotan's Spear, which is the one that shows the scenes before the first episode of SIGN.

  • @MckaiserDragon Oh and going by this logic, that makes Balmung a woman and Mia a man.

  • @BradleyMcCloud lol ive forgotten most of the peoples name its been years since i watch it

  • @MckaiserDragon Same here, I just rewatched SIGN myself in Japanese and they sound better than they did in English. I'm still wondering where Zefie (Aura's daughter) went.

  • @BradleyMcCloud as far as i know she was only in the manga version of legend of the twilight bracelet

  • @MckaiserDragon

    Its not kite, kite was from the first version (storyline year was 2007) this ova is based in revision:X taking place in 2020. The character you see is Sakuya, who based her character around kite. Same goes for the character who resembles balmung (Tobias) and blackrose like character (Mary).

  • @Lokivoid yeh but after watching .hack for so long and seeing a guy char it weird seeing a girl char now

  • I think I will watch this, it looks interesting, even though I've never watched any series of .hack :O

  • wht kit girl what the F U C K

  • I bet the story revolves around people getting trapped in THE WORLD again

  • can anyone inform me of the order of the .hack series? I'm chronilogically confused. quantums first episode looks good but its hard to translate.

  • i honestly don't know why they haven't made a dot.hack mmorpg......called

    "The World"  ... i would really WANT TO PLAY

  • @lilbuttmunch they did but the game fail in japan soo bad they gave up on make a new one

  • @lilbuttmunch they made oone called dot hack fragment, but it didnt last long

  • black rose looks even more boneable.

    and wtf?? 1:21 , za warudo?

  • DATA DRAIIINOOOOO

  • Im glad the Dot hack series isn't going to die off just yet, i was really happy about Dot Hack Link and now this so i hope its gonna be as great as the other dot hack series

  • Dude, Ill watch this, but if this is another freaking prequel to a new game series I will be beyond pissed off!

  • well........ alkaid, balmung, blackrose, atoli, aura and a female kite... im a fan of the .hack series but even i can see that their desperate for viewers.... i know that since THE WORLD is an MMORPG, it cant be helped if a lot of avatars looks alike.... i just hope the story isnt a recycled piece of crap Y.Y

  • I have been a die-hard fan since .hack was started...but I think they need to stop reusing Kite's, Blackrose's, and Balmung's character concepts. Slowly with each change they hurt the love i've had for the story since I was 11.... :(

  • what is the 2 movie of hack

  • ummm... what? .-.

  • i like how its like, blackrose/kites original hair, then at the back its just SUPER LONG.

  • i really hope this is better then link (what the hell were they thinking when they made link?) and is it just me or did the BM in this ad sound like they were trying to copy yuki kajiura's music (the composer of the .hack//sign soundtrack)

  • If you look back on all the .hack games the main characters have all been boys in the game (Tsukasa was a girl in the real world). First I thought when I heard about Quantum "How will he look this time?". So it´s gonna be a girl, that´s kinda intresting ;)

    BUT WHY DOES SHE NEED TO LOOK LIKE KITE!? Didn´t got any ideas for a design? :3

  • Why!? D:

    Is it so damn hard to come up with new character designs?

  • Azure Kite will be angry that he now has to see a girl verson of himself

  • Guys .hack//quantum is a new anime its a new generation of "The World" All the old characters are gone. And the characters in the video that look like the old cast are not the same people. It's just the same character not person. "The world" uses the same characters.

  • 1:02 Atoli from roots / returner / G. U.

    I know I seen the one chick from hack sign

    Female tri edge just less zombar looking

  • what is the relation of.hack quantum with .hack link

    its confusing meh whts the conection

  • Leeeeets see....

    Female Kite? check

    Balmung and Blackrose? check

    Another cat? check

    Skeith?

  • Maybe because "Sora" was just Sakuya/Aida WIP. Maybe when they were starting out with the idea they named her Sora, but later changed it. OR. Sora will be the name when it reaches the US?

    Thats my thought ^^;

  • A female Kite? Well that just pretty much dashed my hopes of this being any better after the horrible atrocity known as Link.

  • Kite just get butt sexed by rule 63

  • I think this is pretty funny because Kite's outfit design was originally blueish green, but it turned orange when Aura gave him the bracelet. Unless her character is a special event gift like in Legend of the Twilight Bracelet, she shouldn't have that orange color. (Sorry if I sound like a know-it-all or something. I just read the books. ^^;)

  • @hippomanza I like people who know what their talking about.

  • @hippomanza True, but it never directly stated that it couldn't have been orange. And even if it couldn't have been in R:1, who's to say that they didn't add in the option with their character creation of an orange coloring. Like with the Shino's 2 outfits and Atoli's. It was stated, in Legend of the Twilight, I think, that they removed the ability to create a character copying any of the .hackers, though. But, y'know, it's not EXACTLY the same outfit for any of the returning characters, either.

  • ok.........what the crap

  • Sweet so this is Kite (Sora's) debuted anime she showed her self in Link but why does she tend to have longer hair when she had short hair in Links?

  • @SonicZer02 Not Sora. Her character name is Sakuya (Real name isn't Sora, either). Apparently, she's a completely different character than the Sora-Kite from Link. Makes you wonder why they even put her in there if she wasn't gonna be used in the future...seeing as how this is supposed to be the last anime.

  • @Zakurako maye the charecter names sora

  • @exolden Eh... Maybe I wasn't clear. The name of the girl Kite's character in The World is Sakuya. Sakuya is her player name, like your online name is SonicZero02, while your real name is something different. In her case, her real name is Aida Asumi. No traces of a Sora in name or appearance, sadly.

  • @Zakurako 

  • @Zakurako ight thx 

  • @Zakurako Ah thx and yea I wonder the same thing 2

  • Ya'll got it wrong. It's Miku Hatsune's reality TV series of her cosplaying as Kite.

  • @OaJien lol Kite looks like Miku xD

  • @OaJien why r u bringing hMiku Hatsune into this? It got nothing to do with her

  • @HeartPinkSplash1

    Talk about sarcasm sensing fail. I don't think there's much else that needs to be said besides that.

  • @OaJien Shugo and Auras daughter?LOL thats what i like to think.

  • I wonder if they're gonna release another game.

  • @Ky2Quick well the lastest game thats out in japan is .hack//link which is looking good so far and its for psp

  • WOAH WHAT THE ATOLI AND ALKAID????!!!!!!!!!

  • Kite, what happened to you?

    Since I saw Atoli at one shot we might as well see Haseo in there?

  • @Foulknercloud well maybe it will ether be haseo or sora because they are the same person

  • They need to make "The World" a real game no exceptions.

  • Whoever made the game/anime, I love you :-)

  • Who gender bent Kite?

  • if you guys remember from the game, remember blackrose was asking kite if he was a girl?

  • For those who don't know (and I see thare are many:P) Quantum takes place in year 2020 so in other words The World isn't R:1 (Infection, Mutation, Outbreak, Quarantine) or R:2 (Rebirth, Reminisce, Redemption) but R: X (.Hack//Link for PSP).

    This OVA takes place a year or 2 after the events in .Hack//Link and for those who played the game there is no surprise that there is now a female character that looks like Kite. I don't know what's so complicated in the story of .hack.

  • @gorzki21 the story of .hack is whats so complicated in the story of .hack

  • The Concept of .Hack is the most Ingenious idea ever, however they made it too complicated and Too much random crap for us to understand the story, other than that, its perfect everything else.

  • Hm, I wonder if this takes place before or after G.U. I'm actually excited to see how this goes, hopefully better then the movie.

    (Belmung looks like a pretty boy now, Lol)

    Also, my guess on why Kite's a girl now is that Kite got married, had a daughter, got into the game and started playing said game with the character design kite had when he played. Kind of like what happened with Mistral's character and all.

  • @PsychoKeiichi A pretty boy Balmung, A hotter version of Black Rose, and A girl Kite. What Idiot/Genius did they hired for this result.LOL
