I was reading alot of the theory and conjecture, and I remember at one point, it was agreed by popular vote that the Chrono Team, which includes Lucca, Marle, Magus, Glenn, Ayla, and Robo, cannot cross dimensions from the original timeline (Another world) into the dimensional timeline in which the future is still ruined (Home World). And yet, as several have pointed out, Kato told us himself that the Prometheus Circuit is Robo.
Point? Robo and Chronopolis existed in Another. No home. He never crossed dimensions.
Don't you see the glaring inconsistency with the assumption that ppl in the "Another World" dimension before 1010 can't cross into "Home World?" If that were true, Robo would not have been able to work with Belthesar and become the Prometheus Circuit. It could be argued that some version of "Prometheus," what Robo was before he became Robo, but we have agreed to take what Kato says as fact. For the Prometheus Circuit to be Robo, as Kato says, the Chrono Team must have full ability to cross between dimensions.
...Why not? Another World is the same dimension that Chrono Trigger took place in, simpley because Home wasn't around then. Robo existed in Another's future. Chronopolis existed in Another's future.
This naturally gives more credence some obvious solutions to certain Home World characters' resemblance to Chrono Team characters. Magil is obviously Magus, and Miguel (with his ludicrous power and Luminaire attack) is obviously Crono. Would not the simplest theory be that FATE rewrote their memories in the Home World dimension?
Miguel is now where near as powerful as Crono would be. Explain why Miguel doesn't use a sword? Serge can get Luminaire, does that make him Crono as well? The entire "Miguel=Crono" has been proven to be pure speculation, and most likely false. Miguel is powerful because of FATE.
Or at least it tried. Magil still somewhat acts like Magus, and Miquel is fully aware of who the Ghost Children are, even his own ghost. No amount of memory insurrection could ever explain to the Chrono Team members why they are so damned powerful.
It is very debatable that the Ghost Children are Crono, Marle, and Lucca. Hell, if you think Miguel=Crono, then how the hell can the Crono ghost be the ghost of Crono?
Looking at your arguement now, it seems like you don't know what your talking about. After 1010, everyone present in the world was split. After 1010, there is a Home World Version of Crono, Marle, and Lucca.
However, this is what the article was saying. It is impossible for anyone to time travel from a year before 1010, to a year after 1010-Home World. So when Crono Trigger took place, Crono could not go from 1000ad Another, to 2300ad Home. Why? Because at Crono's point of departure, there is no Home World yet. However, if Crono waits until after 1010, Another Crono can time travel to 2300 another, and Home Crono can time travel to 2300 home.
Understand?
On another note, do you guys really want to argue about the fates of Crono and Marle here, when nothing can be proven either way? Sigh.
will if they aren't, their pretty clever for turning into ghosts in both homeworld and another world.
As said before, it is argueable about who the Ghost Children are. It doesn't ever say that are Crono and co. It say they are echos of those long gone.
Here is what he said:
Don't let it bother you.
It's just a distant echo
from ones far gone...
It's just an illusion.
Now, as to who they are, I think I find Grey Lensman's "Dream-Figment Theory" to be the best. If you don't know what that is, look it up in the Salt for the Dead Sea article.
On the same tangent, Crono and Marle are also most likely dead — I hate to say it, but it's wishful thinking that they survived the Porrean attack on Guardia. I keep thinking of the Bolshevik Revolution in 1917 Russia and how the royal family was eventually killed, to ensure that no resistance movements sympathetic to their cause rise up and try to retake the country.
That happend in the Bolshevik Revolution. How many modern wars have the leader of another country murdered? When France surrendered to Nazi Germany, did Hitler have the entire French Government executed? When the German Empire surrendered, did Kaiser William get executed? I really doubt something like that happend.
It is possible Crono and Marle are dead. I doubt they are, however. Lucca's letter speaks of "her friends" as if they are alive. The burning orphanage has recent, happy, hand drawn pictures of Crono and Marle. Crono and Marle are very powerful, while Porrean guns are weak, as seen in CC. Also, people seem to have some idea of Crono charging lines and lines of Porrean guns alone, in some epic battle. Doesn't sound like how Crono does business at all.
No proof on either side, so its pointless argueing about it.
