You have to really be trying to overlook a character arc to not see it there. Shannon and Kanon develop. This shouldn't happen. Every piece ought to be like Battler, whose narration shows no signs of recognition of any prior events. Yet Kanon and Shannon not only appear to remember them, they even discuss them and act as if they have learned from them. This has no relevant meaning in a "disguising ninja Yasu" variant of Shkanon. It's not just that it can't explain this development arc, it has no reason to want to.
Just throwing in that I personally felt that Shannon and Kanon have this meta-awareness because they are "Beatrice", just like how the "survivors" of EP1 (the cousins and Yasu) were present in Purgatorio.

Why did Kyrie say that Kanon died in that way?
...what?
