Quote:Well, having now read the manga, I think I can safely say that it's going to have some pretty serious influences - the universe where he's ended up isn't precisely manga!canon or anime!canon, but rather could be viewed as the source behind both... or yet another AU, of course. His notes account for that, with him explicitly noting what happened where, and his own speculations included seperately from either. (Although he'll occaisionally forget it.)
So ... Nagi or 'someone else' (there's always a someone else) instigates several attempts on N!Tate's life, which the latter survives by the barest of margins.
Among the many other factors in the manga is that it established quite unequivocally that Nagi is, 1, not human, and 2, really fucking badass in his own right. He wouldn't need help taking out a single crunchie, especially a concussed one. I can see him using it as a pretext for some of his other attacks, though, now that I think of it.
There's definitely potential in 'someone else'... Koukuyo's people would be the only ones I can see being unprofessional enough not to be able to slip by the HiME, though.
I'd think it'd be obvious by now, but I like the way you think. ^_^
