== Amuria(f) is Aaeru's grandfather. ==
* This would also explain why Neviril was immediately attracted to Aaeru. Must be the blood.
* It's also odd that Aaeru, who's of a lower social class then almost all of the rest of the cast, would have a grandfather who not only was a sibylla but was a regina. Why would they let a nobody in? Perhaps because she had already preformed the Emerald Ri Maajon, seems like that'd be enough for them to boost her to the top of a chor created solely for achieving the Emerald Ri Maajon.
== Dominura is Onashia. == This seems less likely, but both have the same sparkly problem, and both were in Chor Dextra. An alternative but related theory makes Limone Onashia.▼
== Dominura is Onashia. ==

* There isn't really anything ''against'' this, just that it would be ''ridiculously depressing'' and go against the tone of the show.
** I assumed that that was the canonical identity of Onashia. Is it meant to be a mystery? I mean, she's a Dextra member who looks exactly like Dominura in that last scene of hers...
Line 10 ⟶ 13:
*** It's [[Fanon]]. Onashia is actually somewhat physically smaller than Dominura and has different hair.
* This theory does not account for Rimone/Limone, who was stuck onto Dominura like glue. Also, the "sparkly" problem was a general side-effect of never going through The Spring proper--chances are, it would have happened to Yun, Aer, and Neviril as well.
== Aaeru and Neviril are Tempus and Spatium. == They seem to exist in every time and place now, they're a pair just like Tempus Spatium, and Limone appeared to have started the whole phenomenon of identifying "aaeru" with the divine.▼
== Aaeru and Neviril are Tempus and Spatium. ==
== Anyone entering the Spring without clearly intending to be female will be assigned male. == Inertia and fear would naturally cause people to tend to prefer to stay female, to the point that society enforces pre-feminist gender roles in order to get enough people to be men. And since someone who's indecisive on that point hasn't demonstrated a clear preference anyway, the interest of society is for them to help redress the potential man shortage. ▼

== The Spring is created from the same magical water as the Jyusenkyo springs from ''[[Ranma One Half|Ranma 1/2]]''. == Presumably, no tragic drownings were needed to activate these ones. Or the legends have long been forgotten.▼
== The civilization of Simoun was the victim of a [[Gendercide]]. == This results in there being no Y chromosomes left naturally in the population, so the spring tricks the body into thinking it is male so it develops the appropriate physical attributes and allows the reproduction of (female) children. However, this takes years, as shown by Waporif still having and eventually losing his breasts.▼

== Helical motors are designed to harness [[Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann|Spiral Energy]] ==
Furthermore, the civilization that created the Simoun fought the Anti-Spirals and loss. The odd system of sex determination was created by a Lord Genome-like person in order to prevent the triggering of the Human Annihilation Program.
Line 27 ⟶ 39:
* Chapter 24 of ''Canticle'' (bold emphasis added): "He spun the globe again until the axial mountings rattled; 'days' flitted by as briefest instants--In a reverse sense, he noticed suddenly. If Mother Gaia pirouetted in the same sense, the sun and other passing scenery would rise in the west and set in the east. Reversing time thereby? Said the namesake of my namesake; ''Move not, O Sun, toward Gabaon, nor thou, O Moon, toward the valley''--a neat trick, forsooth, and useful in those times too. ''Back up, O Sun, et tu, Luna, recedite in orbitas reversas''....He kept spinning the globe in reverse, '''as if hoping some''' '''''simulacrum of Earth''''' '''possessed the Chronos for unwinding time'''. A third of a million turns might unwind enough days to carry it back to the ''Diluvium Ignis''. Better to use a motor and spin it back to the beginning of Man. He stopped it again with his thumb; once more the divination was wild."
** So...can we declare this confirmed at least as a [[Shout-Out]]?
== Simoun Gems are computers. ==
One of there purposes is to regulate the two Helical Motors the Simoun uses. This is why Simoun Gems aren't used in any of the crafts that run on a single motor.
== Simulacrum did not get partitioned in the end. ==
It just allied with Plumbum, which seems to harbour less fundamental ideological hatred for it than Argentum. This is why Vyuraf has to specify that he was born abroad to explain why Argentum is drafting him. Plus, the Plumbish Military Governor (the 'we were all maidens once' guy) was a defector to Simulacrum waiting to happen already.
Line 34 ⟶ 48:
* [[Word of God]] is that ''[[Simoun]]'' was supposed to be a fundamentally uplifting show, which lends credence to this WMG (and takes some away from the Dominura-is-Onashia theory).
* Plus Yun's still wearing the same Empress/Pope getup that Onashia had. If it looks like an Empress/Pope, talks like an Empress/Pope and presides over the Spring like an Empress/Pope...
== The Spring is directly connected to Tempus Spatium ==
Hence why Yun can apparently see the 'legendary pair' Dominura and Limone when she looks into it.
== Amuria is a [[Shout-Out]] to the [[The Girl Who Leapt Through Time]] ==
At least two versions (the 1983 movie, and The Girl Who Runs Though Time manga) of [[The Girl Who Leapt Through Time]] associate time leaping with lavender. Amuria has lavender hair and escaped from almost certain death by traveling though time.
== Mamiina became an archangel upon her death ==
The mutiny of the Plumbish priestesses and outright [[Heel Face Turn]] ([[Heel Faith Turn]]?) of the Plumbish government are textbook [[wikipedia:Eucatastrophe|eucatastrophe]] and required exploiting several flaws in the Arcus Prima superstructure that didn't seem to be there before (an open Maaju pool, breakable windows). The intervention of Mamiina's soul as opposed to someone else (or Tempus Spatium Herself) seems more likely given the [[Eyecatch]] that has her as an angel and the fact that, honestly, it just seems [[Narm Charm|more]] [[Ham and Cheese|Mamiina's]] [[Crowning Moment of Heartwarming|style]].
