For those who know Minako Arisato, I spoke to her this morning.
I am not sure what happened, but it seems she no longer has any memory of Retrospec.
And everything she received from Retrospec, including her dog, seems to be gone.
I know she had many friends on this app, so I felt it best to say something.
If anyone knows of someone who has remembered Retrospec again after forgetting it in this way, please share what you know.
I think many of us would like to know.

well




shit

[cattack]

Well-said.
I think most of us will agree.

[burningblossoms]

Well that's not good.

She seemed okay last weekend...

[cattack]

It seems very sudden...
I don't know if there's any pattern to this.

Not Here.

[When she spots this, Pen can't help but scream. Zack, Mako, and now Minako? That's a lot, and it's only going to make life harder for Freya and Lucy, something neither of them can afford.

She doesn't respond, but makes a mental note to swing by to check on Lucy at least. Holy Shit. What a month, and it's only the second.]

1/2

[ Another one bites the dust, huh? Bakhura supposes he should be used to this by now, and he and Minako weren't especially close, but it's one of the things that has made him hesitant to try to make new friends.

He's not Shadow Gaming anyone, he swears. ]

What? Dragon girl too?

Maybe one of the fire spirits got her after all, in the end.

[hauhra]

...and yeah, I do know of someone like that. Or rather, I did. Her name was Akinobu Taira. She had forgotten about the app for a while before remembering it again, but then she forgot about it again.

I've also known people to forget about the app, only to remember it again but without any memories from their previous experiences with the app. I think it's some kind of glitch, though why some people glitch while others simply forget altogether, I don't know.

I'm very sorry.

A couple of people have forgotten and remembered. Maurice and Joanne said that it occurs when their souls fall out of sync, and I'm assuming that means their soul and the soul that Retrospec is trying to retrieve are out of alignment.

She's still there. It's like with Gentiana. She might not remember the app, but she'll remember other things. And she might just snap out of it and come back.

[cattack]

Thank you.

... With respect, sir, I do not believe a word Retrospec says. It is all self-serving garbage, with no real intent to help us.

But even so, I hope she comes back.

[destiny_key]

i stole her phone earlier
when she wasnt looking
the apps not there anymore

[He is Very Upset, so his responses will be sporadic.]

[cattack]

And I assume showing her on our own phones would do no good.

I'm sorry.

[matchbreaker]

If people have backups of some of her documents, those would be good to have in case they get lost somehow or another.

But man, that's a blow.

[cattack]

It is...
I hope she will be all right.
As will her friends.

[missingache]

[Is this another family member lost to npc-status? That doesn't sit well with Shiori at all.]

I hope she comes back to us with her memories intact.
Is there anyone keeping an eye on her?

[cattack]

I am.
Though I don't know if I can do anything more useful.

[livingimpaired]

We have not ever spoken, but I still send my regards to you.

Still, as unfortunate as this is, she's still with you.
She may be unable to recall what has happened, or remember some of the memories you shared.
But she is still with you and still sees you as a friend.
And everyone that met her after she received this app can befriend her, once again.

There are new memories that you two shall have together, and so I wish you well on them.

[cattack]

Thank you, sir.
I hope this is the case.
I will do my best to be there for her...

[quiet_storm]

I didn't know Minako but I did forget the app once and now I'm back again.

If anyone has any questions.

[cattack]

Do you know of anything that prompted it?
Your forgetting, or remembering.

[Ren has been considering things like this recently, in the wake of someone from his memories appearing. But it's unsettling enough that he doesn't want it to just be out in public for everyone to read. Not yet, anyway.]

there's someone i've met who was removed and added again. but he's not the same, and he doesn't remember the last time he was aware of retrospec.

private

[cattack]

Can you tell me what you mean by 'not the same'?

[livingdeadgirl]

oh no D:
i mean
i know of at least one or two people who have remembered again
so it may just be a matter of time
but that really sucks

[cattack]

Do you know any patterns as to how they remembered again?

[kittycaterer]

[ Oh no... ]

no way...

[cattack]

I'm sorry.
It's true.

[commandertoolbelt]

no way
you're sure it's her?

but if she remembers retrospec again, she'll remember everything else too, right?
and she'll get koromaru and everything back?

[cattack]

I'm certain.

I hope so. I don't know how this works well enough.
And I don't know whether or not I should hope she does remember.

[youraffection]

what??
wha the hell???
PLEASE TELL ME THIS IS A JOKE

[cattack]

This may be the first time in my life I have been accused of having a sense of humor.
No, it's the truth.
