Nier (video game)/Headscratchers


 * Where did Yonah go in ending C? After she just seems to disappear.
 * She was probably still there, just out of sight, as she appears in ending D.
 * Where did Yonah's Black Scrawl go? When we finally see her in Part 2, she shows no signs of it, nor is she the worse for wear after apparently having this life-threatening disease for five years.
 * Yokoo says she still has it, and is doomed to die. She did seem rather weak in part 2 though - walking a few steps takes quite a lot out of her.
 * The infobook. Just...just the infobook.
 * It's not that.
 * Ok seriously, is the giant shade that called Jack or Knave of Hearts? If its the latter, then I think the official game guide needs an update.
 * In playing cards, before they were called Jacks, they were called Knaves.
 * Even after getting the ability to unpetrify people, Emil never sees fit to fix all those poor statues in his mansion? Why?
 * Maybe they've been petrified so long they can no longer be restored, or maybe Kaine's... unique nature allowed her to survive petrification.
 * How exactly do get made? They seem to be flesh and blood so they were more likely "grown" like you might a clone, but at somepoint it is said  produced in a world that has approximatly midevil level technology?
 * Not all of the [game] world has medieval technology --Nier hardly expressed any surprise at the robot-filled Junkheap, or even the factory-like facility itself. Even the Weapons Lab merited little response other than where its hidden entrance was. But anyway! There's the implication that the.
 * Is Tyrann the Gestalt for anyone we know?
 * Not from the game, but according to the radio drama, he was originally Masayoshi Yura, the commander of the Shinjuku area defense force. He was well-known for his ability to get results, and better known for his sadistic way of doing so.
 * Possibly also a Hero of Another Story, then. Certainly sounds like someone we know...
 * The Shadowlord's defenses make no sense. Why are the children on the path directly toward the Shadowlord instead of away in some safe area among the massive area surrounding Shadowlord's place. Shouldn't they have Goose on the frontlines to fight Nier's team before they have a chance to massacre everyone. And if Popola can destroy the bridge why not just do that in the first place.
 * On another note, why is Popola so helpful to Nier? Giving him transport to the Shadowlord and giving him direction even when he had been wandering aimlessly for five years. What does any of that accomplish for her or Shadowlord's plans?
