Once again wikipedia to the rescue! XD ... But seriously, all that information is very useful in helping one try to understand the concept of the show a liitle better. But please take note, articles written on wikipedia are written by fans like us. Just 'cause it's written on there, doesn't necessarily mean it's fact. ABe, like the other guy earlier stated, created an ending that will always be open to various theories from different viewers.
Quote:Some fans have made the conjecture that the Haibane are, actually, children of our world who committed suicide and were reborn into this world to atone for their sin... an interpretation of the characters names ("Sleep", sleeping pills or coma; "Light", died in a fire; "Ice Lake", frozen; "River fish", drowning; "Falling", suicide by jumping...).Hmm, interesting but...
Quote:ABe is reported to have denied this idea, but still encourages readers and viewers to come to their own conclusions.^_^
