Franchise, Subfranchise, Branch, or other?

".hack//G.U. is a multimedia franchise created as a sequel to the .hack franchise."

Personally, I prefer Branch, with Subfranchise in a close second. To me, calling it a Franchise seems incorrect in some way. Everytime I think of it, I think of it as part of the .hack franchise. It even continues the computer/internet naming motif, "G.U. in / of .hack". You wouldn't know that .hack//Roots and .hack//CELL were part of .hack//G.U. just by looking at their names, but you can reasonably guess they are part of the overall franchise.

What term do you all think .hack//G.U. should be classified as? Mark4011 03:12, 7 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

hmmm....i kinda like 'Branch' more. 'subfranchise' sounds like a fast food chain. OmniAngel 12:12, 7 April 2006

I think it sounds fine. 70.190.121.126 22:50, 13 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

It sounds fine. Besides, what are you talking about "GU in / of .hack"? I'm pretty sure they just did it to look cool... Yuki Shiido 00:25, 25 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
