Actually, there are clues for it everywhere, and they're exactly as detailed as any of the ones that are claimed as actual killable personalities. It's a huge gaping storyline hole and he shouldn't have even breached the subject of "other selves" with characters who aren't Shannon/Kanon/Beatrice if he didn't want that floodgate opened. Alternately, just... don't cheat. But he wasn't smart enough to write
Banquet without cheating. Makes you wonder if
Land was a better-constructed idea and
Banquet was a hasty retooling, honestly. It's the only time blatant cheating with red is actually
necessary to reach Ryukishi's apparently intended solution. It's also arguably one of the few times motive is questionable in several cases.
