** While the name wasn't coined until ''[=killer7=]'', the remnant psyche concept had already existed in Suda's previous work, ''VideoGame/TheSilverCase''. Throughout the course of the game, Tokio Morishima (the protagonist of the Placebo scenario) assimilates the souls of the recently departed who had died in his proximity, and most of them aren't people he's in some way responsible for killing. He becomes a medium for their parted voices and communicates their attempts at speaking to him through emails to himself. The Smiths most likely assimilate recently departed souls much the same way regardless of whether they killed a person or not, the only key difference is that the Smiths have mastered the ability to commune with the dead (perhaps through Harman's godlike influence since we know he already resurrected Dan once when he was only a corrupt Seattle officer) whereas Morishima was more belligerent and attempted to shut out the remnant psyches.

*** Or, if you want to be more cynical, people in power simply passed those laws to hold more power over the people whilst excusing them as "necessary precautions."

* If we follow the theory of the Smith Syndicate as it appears in the game (and also potentially Garcian talking to Harman in his trailerhouse) to all be in Garcian's head, and Harman to actually have been comatose for the whole game, then what of the scenes in the beginning and end between Harman and Kun Lan?

* Coburn Elementary School's role in the backstory got me thinking: did Suda ''deliberately'' mix up Washington D.C. and Washington ''state'' for the story? Because there's no way the U.S.'s first presidential election could have taken place on land that was beyond the U.S. territory.
