EDIT: Random thought rereading "Forgery no.XXX." Ronove mentions having been with Evil Battler in a couple of forgeries, notably Trinity and Land. One thing I was wondering... while we don't know specifically what the contents of Land were, can we infer from that TIP that it may have contained a Battler culprit theory? The "Battler" that is in that particular TIP is the evil/Black version, who represents that theory.

Battler specifically brings this up with Ronove, pointing out that if he's present in the forgery that means that his piece can "run wild," and that he wants to be the one to kill the family. He also suggests this is his role and that it's different from the normal Piece-Battler's role.

So from that, if he was present in Land, then it would seem that the regular Piece-Battler would not be. Was then the design of Land supposed to feature an unreliable narrator Battler who was actually the culprit, with Vergilius as the detective? A sort of proto-End?
It's possible. Though it's also possible that the name 'Land' was chosen just because fans knew it and that the Land mentioned in the tip and the original Land had nothing in common...

Or that Black Battler is just a piece for the fantasy side, sort of like EvaBeatrice isn't Eva. In the fantasy side we'll see Black Battler going around killing people while in truth the killer is always Yasu. Though yes, we'll need someone else to play detective.

Really, I would like to read Land... unless Land is actually the mystery in Our Confession...
