But how would they make a suitable vessel without making a clone of the original body? Granted they don't look that much alike, but they never give ANY INFO AT ALL on Inori's past other than that.

yeah a clone is a possibility but i think that mana may not even be human anymore. i remember that gai said something about living inside the crystals being the next stage of evolution and i believe that's how mana was able to continue living in a form (the crystal wedding ring belonged to mana). thats probably the same way gai was able to be revived. probably like a hauxcrox from Hp Lol. or maybe they continued through the apocalypse virus.

or maybe a suitable person has to be a void genome compatable person or have a similar void to manas. though i believe a clone would be the most logical assumption I'm not sure it's that simple. though you are probably right with the clone theory

anyway back to the not human theory i believe that inori wasn't human either, due to her state before she was captured and the fact that all the GHQ members were insistent on the idea that she wasn't human. though that could be just mana's consciousness doing the work and the members could just think clones aren't real humans. though she is defiantly said to have been 'created' and has no parents. though if mana was really human then that doesn't explain why lost christmas happened. but whatever this is getting us no where.

Either way, it would have been nice if Guilty Crown had bothered to explain the backstory and creation of one of its main characters. Otherwise, it's hard to care about the character when all she does is yell the main character's name.

It's Ouma Shu's love for her that gives her a place in the viewer's attention and affection. His devotion, and hers too, and how she sacrificed herelf up to simply save him. I think it's quite obvious Yuzuriha Inori is neither clone nor human. She is a replica, a created body that would be compatable with the consciousnes of Mana and was never meant to have a consciousness of her own. This is why she calls Tsutsugumi Gai her saviour, he pulled her from the hold, forcing the body to gain a soul.

Obvious to you, maybe. That seems like the sort of thing that should've been explained in the show itself. I don't think we ever even got an explanation for how the group that made her even got the capability to construct an entire human being.

True, they did not provide an explanation because what they wanted to convey was that Inori was never meant to be given the chance to be human and the monstrous conscious of mana is slowly taking over her.

That's not the same thing though. She wasn't given a chance to be a human by her creators because she was made to be a jar for Mana's soul. What *I* want to know is how her creators were able to make said jar based on the established science in the show...which they never show, explain, or describe.

This even I'm not sure of however, we can believe it is in the same principle as the Endlaves used for fighting, linking the consciousness of someone without a body to a shell of a body like the Endlaves. We also knowshe is definitely strong enough and probably as durable except not immune to crystalisation.
