Skuld ltierally doens't know her own name..

Sometimes kh can do it organically, like with xigbar

it feels like nomura was like "right we need to bring this up BUT we need to force ourselves not to reveal too much"

What the heck will they call her?

But....JRPGS do that, Connah

X? Chi?

Other times it's super egregious

Urghhh why am I baby sleep magnet

Especially given his notes and what was said about him in 1

Anywhoo, semantic definitions aside

It's so uncomfortable typing with a baby in my arms

That's in the definition of retcon

It goes against a lot of what was told to us about Ansem

"typically used to facilitate a dramatic plot shift or account for an inconsistency."

It is therefore a retcon

Well it's not a plot shift it's a twist

There are some retcons that are much more organic than others

A plot shift is like a shift of tone or direction

Retcons aren't inherently a bad thing

Don't mis assume me now

Wellll

yeah

Yeah I agree Quid
