An Entity of Type : owl:Thing, within Data Space : 134.155.108.49:8890 associated with source dataset(s)

Not the most original idea, but it explains a LOT. Between existentialism pouring from every direction and the entire reality being shaped by the mad Psychic Powers of a selected few individuals, with Margaret being the strongest psychic, it is the first idea that should come to one's mind. (See also the "Death Note takes place inside L's head" theory). * There's no such thing as too deep into that forest! Someone lead the way!

  • Not the most original idea, but it explains a LOT.

(See also the "Death Note takes place inside L's head" theory). Moreover, reading the creator's comments with this in mind may lead to the conclusion that all the prominent characters in the show (the "Gatekeepers") are fragments of Margaret's psyche, from which she had to piece her personal identity together. Moreover, it can be assumed that every character in the show is a piece of Margaret; hence, the "broken pieces" motif scattered all over the series from the opening theme to the final episode's title. Going further with the theory, it is possible that every character who died in the series didn't - they just merged with Margaret's psyche. That would make Vanessa, Elenore, and Carrossea's deaths and Limelda's survival less bitter for some. On the other hand, it would suggest that Friday Monday didn't die, either -- a disturbing notion if you think about it. It would also raise a major question of the metaphysics behind Margaret, Madlax, and Laetitia's assumed unity; but answering it (for example, by assuming that the latter two are two different persons or personas whose psyches were mushed up with Margaret's to help her snap out of it) would lead us too deep into the Epileptic Forest. * There's no such thing as too deep into that forest! Someone lead the way! As for the back-story -- the state of Margaret's mind described above may be a result of traumatic events (possibly involving patricide) that shattered it into little smithereens and left her in catatonia "in the real world", whatever that may be. The final shots of the last episodes may have been her last moments before awakening. Or maybe she decided to stay in the imaginary world, literally allowing her fragments who, she thought, deserved a real life to live to the fullest.
