The Antiochus were supposedly the next evolution in warfare, complimenting while also surpassing Anzeel's shipgirls the same way shipgirls would surpass mass-production manned naval vessels. A combat exercise held towards the end of ''Parallel Superimposition'' shows this in full effect, as the Arbiter Devil XV is able to buff KAN-SEN with her fleet of electronic warfare drones before she turns hostile on the Commander and his task-force of Yorktown II, Hornet II, Northampton II, Hamman II, Langley II, and [[TheLastOfTheseIsNotLikeTheOthers Memphis]]. Devil XV uses her EW drones and her ability to [[MookMaker churn out legions of mass-production autonomous warships]] to launch a withering onslaught against our heroes before Helena META and Memphis META ([[AngelUnaware who was in disguise as Memphis]] all along, and [[ImpostorForgotOneDetail almost tipped her hand earlier]] leading savvy players to [[SpottingTheThread notice something was "off" with her behavior]]) save the Commander in a {{Big Damn Heroes}} moment.\\\

* By the same manner, since the Iron Blood have it, it's safe to say there'll be an increase in strong ironblood units. The ''Inverted Oriphant'' units are likely from that.

** Partially Confirmed: In the event ''Parallel Superimposition'', dialogue between Dr. Anzeel (creator of the KAN-SEN, aka shipgirls) and Dr. Aoste (creator and "Magister" of the Anti-X/Antiochus faction, which would go on to be known as the Sirens and the Arbiters) explains that the Antiochus were to be considered complimentary to the shipgirls, their joint goal being to protect humanity from an existential threat posed by extraterrestrial {{Mechanical Abomination}} invaders which would otherwise inflict a {{Curb Stomp Battle}} on Earth's united 21st century militaries. (As we saw in earlier events, this tragedy came to pass and humanity was destroyed by the Leviathans described in ''Dreamwaker's Butterfly''. In the course of their discussion with the Commander, Dr. Anzeel and Dr. Aoste elaborate by explaining that while each of Anzeel's shipgirls was a unique fully-individualized consciousness bestowed upon a historic hull pattern from Wisdom Cubes, with a full range of emotions and aspirations; the Antiochus were more like terminals connected to supercomputers that were then granted intelligence and combat aptitude by Wisdom Cubes, with each Antiochus being able to digitally clone their consciousness to [[BodyBackupDrive new bodies]] in the event of their destruction or if they were to become corrupted/rebellious.\\\

Whether or not the Japanese wordplay was intentional was not confirmed, but there is now a canonical link established between the origin of the KAN-SEN and the Sirens by their very creators themselves.

* Purity will become a LiteralSplitPersonality from Purifier, and Observer Alpha will be the reason why: Her hidden scene at the end of Tower of Transcendence will turn out to have foreshadowed that she couldn’t bring herself to wipe Purity from the network, and the experience shook her to her core by causing her to realize that all it takes for an Elite Siren to be DeaderThanDead is for someone to decide she [[YouHaveOutlivedYourUsefulness isn’t useful anymore]] and just wipe her.
