Don QuixoteEdit

Should a mention be made that Don-Wan Kihotay may have been at least loosely based on Miguel de Cervantes Don Quixote from Don Quixote. The personality traits seem to hint at a basis in Cervantes' character. Alonso Quixano reads and is so obsessed with the tales of chivalrous knights that he decides he is one, Don Quixote de la Mancha. Hess Korrin is so obsessed with the tales of the Jedi that he becomes Don-Wan Kihotay. Then there is the last name, Kihotay looks to be the phonetic pronounciation of Quixote. Plus, though this is more reaching and less asscotiated, Don-Wan also seems to be suggestive of Don Juan, another Spanish literary character.—Unsigned comment by 72.71.223.172 (talk • contribs).

• Honestly, I'm surprised it hasn't been mentioned as the similarity in name is just too obvious to dismiss as a mere coincidence. At one point, I think it may have been added in the Bts, but I'm not entirely sure. Trak Nar ^{Ramble on} 05:49, July 30, 2010 (UTC)
  • I removed it from the BTS, because it's speculation. Unless a source states it, it can't be added. <-Omicron^{(Leave a message at the BEEP!)} 19:19, March 13, 2012 (UTC)
