[@lemone630]

This syncs up shockingly well with the Arcade Order Sol intro

[@maorivirs8752]

Just realised something: this song (keep the flag flying) is holy order sol vs ky, and is about their conflict and the crusades, which is pretty obvious. What i realised is that sin using a flag as a weapon could be a reference to this song, showing his connection to both ky and sol, ky is his father and sol is his mentor/the one that raised him. This could also show his divide between both of them in his personality and beliefs, as well as being part gear, which comes back to this song referring to the crusades (human-gear war) and the reason why ky couldn't raise him and sol could. In that way, ky using dragon install could be seen as him accepting not only gears as a whole, but also his son (he can access dragon install due to swapping an eye with sin). So in a strange way, this song gives more characteristics to sin, despite him not even existing when this song was made.

@@boxtank5288What really helps Sol stand out as a self insert is that he’s not ideal in terms of character. He’s not the best at everything, is very obviously bad at plenty of things, and other characters in the story usual call him out for being a lazy moody cunt. He suffers and people call him out which helps to humanize him against his super human physique.

…I daresay it might have been. Both are battle themes for the two main characters when they are at full power. (O-Sol EX and Ky EX/ Ragna Unlimited and Jin Unlimited) and it symbolizes an almost eternal rivalry. However, in Ky’s case…he never went all out. He proved this at the end of Revelator. And Jin could never fully unleash the Power of Order without the body of Hakumen.

@@johnnywantyoudead5113 *BIG SPOILERS FOR CENTRAL FICTION* It’s Susano’o but yes. We don’t ever see Hakumen in his original body, though. His spirit was somehow placed inside the Susano’o unit by Kokonoe. And he ended up basically making it his own until Central Fiction when he lost it to Terumi, who ended up unleashing all of his terrible power and becoming Destroyer Susano’o, but was wrested from the body, allowing Jin to take hold of it and enabling him to fully unleash the Power of Order. Even then it was just barely enough to hold off Terumi. In the end both Sol and Ragna are somewhat tragic heroes because they pretty much need to die to see the “saving the world” thing through. Ragna luckily took all trace of the Azure with him when he went, along with dragging Terumi to Hell with him.
