Ichise quotes from Texhnolyze

You... I have to apologize to you. For a long time... ever since Mother died... I thought it was you who killed her. I thought you became corrupted by worthless things, like money. I never even imagined that you had been framed... by some filthy bastards. I'm sorry... father.

Hey, I've changed, haven't I? Not because I got this arm. It's because I met you. But I'm still doing the same thing. What I'm about to do... is also what I've been doing, just to survive. Does that mean whatever I do, doesn't change no matter what? That isn't so, is it? Have you changed because you met me?

Look, that's a very clear ghost.

You're the ones who are ghosts.

This is a surprise. You're alive.

What about you?

Well I wonder. If sitting here day by day only reminiscing about the past can be called living then I guess we are.

If we who barely hold onto our sanity by having our ghosts walk around can be called "live humans".

Do you want to die now?

So it was you whom Theoria was watching.

Where's Ran?

Theoria will never again voice what she sees.

Why did you do all of this? I thought you were going above with your soldiers in tow.

It was meaningless from the beginning. I was well aware that the world above was about to die out. I wanted to see for certain... how much Texhnolyzation could change a human being's consciousness. And revenge was the best way to move the people of this place. Besides, we weren't forced to come here. The human species... which was born here, is now about to come to its end. So everything has come full circle.

Where is Ran?

Having expanded my mind through Texhnolyzation... I came to understand that Lukuss is inside of my mind. It's a delusion that we have genes that no human being should have. I became free of all genes by having intercourse with Lukuss. We must now endure a long passage of time... in order to evolve into a different life form. They have received their bodies in preparation for that. I'm more sane than anyone else. My sister, Theoria, knows that better than anyone. But Theoria won't ever speak again. She has killed her own mind. She can't be my eyes anymore. What are you afraid of? To kill me, who is saner than anyone... is to acknowledge your insanity and to embrace it until you die.
