Hybrids in Little Tail Bronx A Ramble

This will be an extensive ramble into the nature of hybrids or just some things I've noticed about them. If I get anything wrong feel free to correct me in the comments.I am no were near an expert on Little Tail Bronx lore hahahah... Also SPOILERS for Solatorobo, its side material and the Fuga Melodies of Steel Trilogy!!!

What are Hybrids?

Hybrids are artificial beings created by Juno to pilot/operate Juno technology. Visually they are indistinguishable from humans but are capable of great feats of power. We've only seen one Hybrid was created by Juno, Baion. The rest were either made by the Anti-Juno organization Crusade pre-reset, or by Merveille and Baion post-reset. This doesn't mean other people did not try to create Hybrids, they just haven't been shown yet...

Types of Non-Juno Hybrids

Crusade Hybrids were made for two purposes, to be fauder for the Soul Cannon and to pilot the Belenos. They are fully humanoid except for cat ear headsets and metallic tails, which could be appendages used to operate Crusade's versions of Juno tech. All of these Hybrids are created as children, this could be due to Crusade not having enough resources or information to create the fully grown Hybrids that Juno makes. Most of these child Hybrids did not survive experimentation and Soul Cannon usage and were deemed as failures. The only survivor Jihl, was the only one who could be fired from the Soul Cannon Multiple times and he was to closest to making the Belenos actually work.

Converted Hybrids are Caninu and Felineko children who were experimented on by Baion. Four of the seven Red Data Children were converted, not created. I don't know how many children were taken for these experiments, but much like the Crusade most were deemed "failures" and disposed of, or in the case of 9071 they died off early on. Ironically, Baion is repeating the same atrocities as the humanity of the past (Crusade). Quynne is barely talked about but he is actually a Converted Hybrid who helped Carmine escape the facility and adjust to his new life. Some Converted Hybrids seem to have specific abilities an example is 9071 he had empathic abilities and if I'm remembering correctly Carmine has some form of future vision. (Seriously THESE guys were considered failures??? Baion your standards are too stinkin' HIGH).

Pseudo Hybrids technically refer to all Hybrids that were not made by Juno, but here I'm specifically talking about the ones Merveille created. She used her and Baion's DNA to create Blank, Nero, and Red. They are in human form (Trance form) a majority of the time but if they exhaust their power, they turn back into Caninu, a trait they share with Converted Hybrids. However, this isn't the case for Red. He is a Caninu most of the time but can achieve Trance when certain conditions are met. This is because he was intentionally made "imperfect" so he can learn and grow exponentially unlike any Hybrid before him.

Hybrids are Tools

Hybrids constantly use their lifeforce to control Juno technology. They are glorified keys for the cars that are Titano-Machina. I think if the power needed to do so is not too high Hybrids can use powerful Juno like technology with little to no consequences. Jihl being used in the Soul Cannon multiple times, Red surviving the Rite of Forfeit, etc... But if the power proves too great for them it could be fatal. Like when Jihl gave his life to revive Hannah or 9071 dying to the Rite of Forfeit because he wasn't a normal Hybrid like Red (and he wanted to die). This may explain why the people who create Hybrids are so...picky, being weak is not an option for these artificial beings. It's a manufactured survival of the fittest. What makes it all the more horrible is the fact that most Hybrids are children, they have thoughts and feelings, but their creators often disregard this. Failures are eradicated, Sucesses must fulfill their purpose no matter what, even then they are still discarded afterwards.

Some of My Hybrid Headcanons, Theories, and Trivia

Headcannon: Most of the Converted Hybrids are Caninu because of the race's association with technology, the Caninu majority of Shepherd, or Baion could have been concerned that Felineko Hybrids proficient with Nono could backfire when piloting Titano-Machina.

Theory: The Crimson Knights of Fuga 3 may be Hybrids! They each have individual powers like some Hybrids. The Berman Empire has advanced technology, they were able to create they Tarascus after all. And for what reason does Ash look like Carmine if not to make a visual association with Hybrids.

Headcannon: There could be more Hybrids who escaped from Baion's experiments. Look if Quyanne can escape and go unnoticed for a decade I think it's plausible that there are more wondering Shepherd or other parts of the post-reset world. (Free material for Hybrid Fan characters)

Trivia: The Red Data Children's color code names relate to red failure slips. Red, Rose, Carmine, Vermilion, Rouge, Crimson (Quynne). The exceptions are Nero and Blanck who are seen as successes.

Theory: Jihl's mother could be a narrative parallel to Merveille. Both eventually saw the Hybrids they created as their children. While Merveille was able to rebel from Baion by creating Red and in turn saving the Hybrids she made, Jihl's mother had little options except for sacrificing herself to spare Jihl from the torture of being Soul Cannon fuel.

WHOOOooo That's all...Hybrids are one of the most interesting aspects of the LTB universe in my opinion. I just wanted to talk about these guys (and do a little bit of Fuga 3 theorizing before it comes out)

TLDR Being a Hybrid kind of sucks (aside from the cool powers) Thank you for reading my Furry TedTalk
