Yoko: I always think that each story is its own thing and there’s no need to know anything more than what’s told within that singular story, even if other details do in fact exist. I’m always thinking of the setting and how things fit together, but as far as each individual game goes, there’s a lot of information that isn’t necessary to tell the story. Yoko: I’m not making games to reveal a clear setting, but rather drama and experience. Matsuda: Whaat? You’ve gotta reveal this at some point! Matsuda: Will you ever reveal any of this? Saito: So, whenever this next NieR game comes out, I think we’ll probably end up over there. Saito: As long as it has nothing to do with the narrative of the game, he doesn’t like discussing it. In other words, the “Army of Humanity” androids are often labeled as the current figureheads of Humanity, so it could be possible that the faction of androids currently fighting the war against the aliens in the Kingdom of Night were the ones to initially create Accord.Īdditionally, Yoko said that the details about the Kingdom of the Night were not vital to the story of Automata, so nothing was ever discussed about it, saying that “Discussing it has no purpose.” The definition of what is considered “human” during this time is unclear. He also mentioned that Accord’s creation may have something to do with the Dragons, but he didn’t elaborate on this point either since it would get overly complicated (and he probably couldn’t discuss it even if he wanted to). According to the official timeline, the “Army of Humanity” created the so-called “Dragon” weapons to fight in the war against the aliens in 6230. Yoko revealed that Accord was originally created along with Dragons by “something like humans” in the Kingdom of Night, but he wouldn’t explain this in any detail. xDĪccord was first created by “Humans” in the Kingdom of Night.

We’ll always have Suga’s awesome performance to look back on and enjoy whenever we feel the need to see a male Accord android. Although I am personally a little disappointed to hear this, since the “male Accord” was my favorite part to Ver.1.3a/aᵃ, it doesn’t mean much in the long-run.

Accord has always been an interesting character, and Suga brought new life the character in a new and interesting way. This is shocking to us male-Accord fans and fans of the actor Suga Kyosuke, but really this realization doesn’t change much. I would be kinda sad if all of a sudden one of them turned out to be a male android. This is especially important in the earlier versions of the stage play, such as Ver.1.1, in which several apparently female androids confessed their love for each other, which seemed like a really great nod to the LGBTQ community. Now that he mentioned this, I’m really curious if there were other characters who were likewise female but appeared male merely because the actors were all male. I can see from the director’s stand-point that it would have been nice to know everything about the character ahead of time in order to give the necessary direction and advice to the actor, but this is a sort of “if” story to begin with, so it doesn’t really matter either way. Yoko: No one asked me about it, so I didn’t say anything. Matsuda mentioned that it would have been better if he had known more about the character, especially to give Suga more direction, but… He also apparently didn’t say anything about this to Suga or Matsuda, the director of the play. He decided from the very beginning that there were only female-type Accord androids. The cast is male, so it’s easy to make that assumption however, this was not a male version of Accord. What is Accord’s connection to the Kingdom of Night?Īccord exists only as a female-type android.Īt one point, Yoko stated that the Accord that appears in YoRHa Ver.1.3a/aᵃ was never said to be male.
