*screams*
Nooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo
It cant be true *sobs*
I know they showed a preview of balmung in 1, is he anything like the fat sweatty guy? >->;
Besides, I would rather follow the ANIME on that little portion "coughcough" because they never show balmung IRL XD

[EDIT: Tsukasa- *cuts out a number of 'o's so that it doesn't kill the page formatting anymore*]

Well, in most cases, people's avatars look NOTHING like them (cept probably for Subaru...)

Kinda like how Sora's avatar looks just like an adult's...

... Subaru IRL and OL do not look alike. Maybe by hair color, but that's about it...

If anything, Tsukasa looks similar to her PC. And from what you can see, BT somewhat, IMO.

Mimiru looks like her avatar, she does more than Tsukasa/Ann does. YamiJared, could you scan (or provide a link or something) of Balmung's IRL player? (No, I'm not some insane Balmung fangirl, I just want to see this for myself.

)

just go to the Helba's Gate website, in the third manga summary, he admits himself, and Flame, the Anime and Manga are different, but that doesnt mean Balmung has two forms O.o that would be cool! *imagines Balmung having the secret identity of a fat dude, and when he detects a pretty girl, he presses a button his watch "Go Go Bishie Rangers!" and suddenly becomes all hot XD*

The wording isn't that good but from what I understood of it, they were in Net Slum, (The World) when Balmung said he was a Sys Admin. And Rena was just asuming (sterotyping) that he was a he was a big ol' fat guy, because most Sys Admin's were. You could be right about Balmung IRL, but we'll probably have to wait until vol. 3 comes out to find for sure.

well, from what Austin told me (I'm buds with him, as you can see that I made the Novels page) Rena guesses what he's like and Balmung confirms it, besides, Balmung wasn't that hot to begin with, he's a butthole (the Balmung on this forums is 1337itful ^_^ *flutter flutter like bird, wheeee*) I mean woo, silver hair and wings, nothing that Lukk doesn't have, Tsukasa is so much better though, angsty! ^_^ *squeezes Lukk and Tsukasa in plushie form, and Elk just to finish the collection*
but back on topic, I mean, it's not that Balmung is offended or corrects Rena, because Balmung is the kind of guy who would

Doesn't look fat to me...

Looks can be decieving. But then again, that certainly does not look fat.
Maybe hes on slimfast or sumthing.

Nope he looks pretty skinny. (Are those the characters in real life of the manga?)

=.= ok, note to self, must kill Rena for misleading me, sorry Balmung *plushifies and throws him in the Abyss, where Balmung can be heard screaming* DAMN YOU RENA!!! *Balmung's wish is granted when we find Rena's dead body in a ditch, Rena didn't really DO anything nayway*
