I have watched my fair share of anime (as well as played anime-related games), and have seen some characters (both hero and villain) get axed every now and then. But having said characters being revived by some method is a rare and uncommon occurance. Of course, some series tend to make exceptions on that (*cough*Naruto*cough*).

My point is, how ever RT plans to take this, I'll accept it with open arms. Then again,  it was the lord and master Monty Oum who wrote this all out, so... yeah.

Anyway, as I said before, whatever path they take this, I won't throw a fit over it. That is all. I agree, I just saw someone else suggest the Ambyrrha idea in one thread and was all, "That could be pretty cool if they played it right" and thought over whether it was possible. One benefit is that all the talk they had about Pyrrha's life becoming intertwined with Amber's, whether she would be herself afterwards, and all that jazz would not have just been a whole lot of wasted foreshadowing i.e. essentially filler. They wouldn't have just been dangling some juicy and interesting story development only to yank it away and be like, "And now you shall never know."

Better yet is it throws a monkey wrench into the idea of the characters living and, as the case may be, dying in the same way as their inspirations. After Pyrrha getting shot in the heel or whatever, it would be really annoying if they just did that with the rest of Team JNPR. Not because I am against them being killed, but because it would be really predictable at this point. Having an x factor such as Ambyrrha would allow them to prevent those fates befalling them and write a new path.

Granted, they can still not kill them or not kill them in a similar way to how their inspiration's stories had them killed, but then it just clashes with how they handled Pyrrha. This scenario also conveniently allows Pyrrha to be dead in every way that matters since it can be what they hinted at of her not being herself with it essentially being Amber who is conscious and aware, while Pyrrha is just the unconscious soul of a dead girl contributing energy and memories to Amber's body.
