#zettel #gaming sourced from: [[¥My Hunt For A Nearly Lost 90s Anime - hazel]] # System Erasure must have some understanding of doujinshi culture From the hazel video, we know that doujin manga creators might link their works through threads of characters and other locations that are relevant if you get deep into the piece. This acts as a "signature" of sorts, in the event someone found the work without knowing who had made it. We see this with in System Erasure's games with character like Erasure, a vaguely antagonistic character from deep into [[ZeroRanger]], showing up as the Zero Judge in [[Void Stranger]]. I would not be surprised to see a character like Bee or Erasure or someone like them in a future work like $\mu$. ## Related Thoughts: - It's not uncommon to have Easter eggs of previous characters in new pieces of media. But to have them feature prominently feels more like the dounjinshi side of things. - It's like seeing a poster about [[Perfect Blue]] in [[Tokyo Godfathers]]
