Talk:No5=KAKU-WEST*→▲★★KAI

I had a thought and the Japanese name confirms it: "west" in Japanese is 西(にし / nishi), which is read セイ "sei" in compound words. So that makes the first part "Kakusei", which could be 覚醒 "awakening" or 客星 something like "comet" (but this can also be read キャクセイ kyakusei). Both of these seem plausible, since it plays in a Lao scene (connected to awakening) and in the opening cutscene, with a battle in space (hence comet). For the second part, I assumed ▲★★ should symbolize some Kanji which connects with KAI to create some word, but I didn't know which. With the Japanese name we get ホウカイhoukai, which points to 崩壊 "collapse/crumbling". This fits perfectly with the symbols: ▲=山 (mountain), ★=月 (moon).Bibbedibob (talk) 05:58, 26 November 2021 (EST)

Edit: 客星 is literally something like "guest"+"celestial body", hence "comet" is a normal translation, but it could also refer to something else - like the huge alien's motherships, or even Earth itself, since humanity is leaving it.Bibbedibob (talk) 06:06, 26 November 2021 (EST)
