  [Kionon] I am not sure I follow the connection to the anime.
  [G_Q> Well, first, the music is about a game -- specifically, Chess.
  [Kionon] Is it? I thought it was about prostitution.
  [G_Q] No, the song itself comes from the original concept album "Chess".
  [Kionon] It certainly sounds like prostutition.
  [Kionon] Anyhow, yeah, I didn't get that.
  [G_Q] Also, the lyrics speak of "Angels" (which are the androids in Angelic Layer), "Demons" (which is a play on the red Angel Hikaru's appearance), and "Gods" (the white, long-haired angle is Shirahime the Snow Goddess, who is actually part of another CLAMP story of the same name).
  [G_Q] Also, a bit of a play for Tsubasa fans: "In the country of Infinity in Tsubasa: Reservoir Chronicle, there is a tournament with similarities to Angelic Layer battles, where the Deus sits on an egg-shaped chair and telekinetically controls the players (in Tsubasa: Reservoir Chronicle they are called "chess pieces" instead of "Angels", however, and often normal people are the pieces.)"
  [Kionon] Ah.
  [G_Q] So, it's a bit multilayered.
  [Kionon] That makes sense, but only after explanation.
  
  Thanks to Kionon, LantisEscudo, and others who watched the beta and gave feedback.
  
  Enjoy :)
